It's a great game indeed, you havn't got to be a pro to play. I'm not a pro, and i play. In seriousness, i'll ask a few mates and see if they want to join.

I need to get back on the diet, having weighed myself this morning. Before starting work, i was 17st 9. Now today, 11 months after starting i'm 18st 11. Thats 1st 2ib in 11 months, need to shift some off before the end of June
-
Investing in new players for the new season, see what i can snag from the youth acadamy. Need a new forward this season. Also, for those eliminated from this round of the N-Euro cup. I'm looking for a friendly for Friday, anyone interested?
-
I'm out, lost 2-1 to Peeps. Shows i belong in the lower leagues for now, until i get my team up in skill.
-
Speaking of notice. If it is ok with everyone, i wish to put forward the time for the Round 2 Live Draw. Wednesday 16th May 2012 @ 8:30pm If the time is ok with everyone. It gives enough time to get the invites out for the matches for Fridays play i think.

Thought i'd throw my congratulations in to everyone who took part in this edition of "Forum Telephone". I had fun creating the games, and more fun watching the results coming in. Yvonne definetly won. That was sheer brilliance indeed. And i'm kinda wondering where that Giraffe came from as well.

I need a new midfielder, after the dev report and upon using my youth midfield more this season, it has certainly shown no improvement. Going into the lower league to seriously develop my youth before attacking the mid-division once again. The change report certainly didn't do me favours, many going down with only a few going up.
-
Ok, have edited Game 1. Grunch's caption is amongst the pictures, apologies for missing it out.
-
Here is the recorded draw, for those who wish to relive or those who missed it. I mentioned earlier about it, it is filmed at a different angle compared to the live footage. But everything is there.
-
Wasn't too sure on a few of the team names myself, who is this Andy Allstars btw. Sent my invite to @The Peeps.
-
When would you like the next draw??. Wednesday evening sound ok for everyone??
-
I'll look at alternatives to Ustream, was getting a few complaints of the lag. May be part-due to my connection tonight, and adverts interrupting things. I'll check out the alternative
-
Can people see the stream

@Dannyboy\-the\-Dane (Completed) @Paj\! (Completed) @Diageo (Completed) @Supergrunch (Completed) Sweet, cheers. Thats all complete. I will post the game(s) up later, have a few things to sort out before *cough* Xpert Eleven Live Draw */cough*. Edit Sorry, the only song i think fits the bill for the awesomeness that is to be revealed within. Here it is, the entire telephone for your enjoyment.

N-Europe Elite League Season 22 – Round 18 The Sixty Fourthers vs Eights United Sixty were looking for the win to end what has been a bad season for them, and they certainly were going for that today. Sohiel Qadir was booked for an offensive tackle in the very 1st minute of the match. But it was Eights who opened the scoring, Alec Svanson the scorer from a breakaway. He was to score again 4 minutes later from the penalty area. Sixty were still determined to get a result, bringing on Arazh Sorai for Abdallah Kermashani. Who happened to be booked in the 58th minute for a serious offensive tackle to Eights’ double scorer Alec Svanson. Which was a shame, he was heading for a hatrick this match. Alec had to be bought off, he was injured from that tackle. Gunnar Hilmo was his replacement. A few more subs for Sixty bought the minutes down. Possession: 42 - 58 Chances: 5 - 3 Man of the Match (Sixty): Amer Kurdi Man of the Match (Eights): Trygve Fjellbekk Final Score: The Sixty Fouthers 0 – Eights United 2 Leeds M.O.T vs Battlestar Odwinica Odwinica were closing in on a potential championship, needing the win today in order to secure the title for themselves. Leeds were out to stop this at any cost. The first 45 minutes was a back and forth contest, but in the 2nd half, Leeds were determined to get a result. Bringing on Loki Gascoigne for Viquardinho Berger. Odwinica’s Gareth Coles was booked for an offensive tackle to Jonny Howson. He had to be subbed for Jose Antonio Alonso. An injury to Amar Sherawat bought his game to an end, being subbed for Ghita Baldovin. Ionut Codrin was also injured and subbed for Marvin Townshend Possession: 43 - 57 Chances: 1 - 3 Man of the Match (Leeds): Elton Monkhouse Man of the Match (Odwinica): Hardy Howarth Final Score: Leeds M.O.T 0 – Battlestar Odwinica 0 Silverdale Hotpot vs Rising Phoenix It was between Silverdale and Odwinica for the title, Silverdale were going to attempt to snag it from Odwinica’s grasp. Within the first 7 minutes of the match, they had scored twice. Ronnie Scrimshaw in the 4th and Jamie Jerome in the 7th. Steven Calderwood was booked in the 11th minute, this was going to be a make or break match. 3rd goal for Silverdale, Steven Calderwood the scorer. Soon rectifying his earlier booking, the fans forgave him for that. Rising were in for a beating today, making a few mistakes which bought the cup nearer to Silverdale. Caupolican Candelas was booked in the 27th. In the 35th minute, they received a penalty. The taker was Darren Bolam, but he botched it and sent it into the 15 row. In 1st half extra time, Jamie Jerome was injured and had to be subbed for Hernan Orellana. 2 more goals for Silverdale, Eric Hudson in the 52nd and Julian Wacek in the 78th made it 5-0. Rising had to wake-up, but with the fans leaving, this was definitely Silverdales time. A booking for each time within the space of a minute, and a 6th goal for Silverdale (scorer Steven Calderwood) bought this match to an end. Possession: 66 - 34 Chances: 10 - 4 Man of the Match (Silverdale): Jamie Jerome Man of the Match (Rising): Jean-Jacques Piquet Final Score: Silverdale Hotpot 6 – Rising Phoenix 0 Mcoys Sons vs Happenstance FC Mcoys hosted Happenstance in this match today, both sides played a 3-5-2 formation. Maurice Melton was injured for Happenstance and had to be subbed for Eddy Jefferson, the favour was returned to Mcoys as Jez Heckinbottom was injured and subbed for Nicholas McGuire in the 9th. Happenstance received their first yellow in the match, Teofilo Polo the booked player. It took 42 minutes, but Mcoys opened the scoring. Hamilton Charles the scorer. 2 minutes later, Happenstance equalised. Patrick Unsworth the scorer. Late in the second half, Mcoys struck back with 2 more goals. Niles Alvarado in the 85th and a penalty delivered by Athur Rossall ended this close encounter Possession: 58 - 42 Chances: 9 - 6 Man of the Match (Mcoys):Stephen Gaye Man of the Match (Happenstance): Patrick Unsworth Final Score: Mcoys Sons 3 – Happenstance FC 1 Madpool vs Intergalactico Stars Madpool hosted Inter in todays contest, it was Madpool who opened the scoring today first. 13 minutes in, the scorer being Stanley Trainer. 6 minutes later, Spence Monk for Madpool scored. Assisted by Reggie Hales this time around. Chris Benoit for Inter received a booking for applying a cross-face to Roberto Carlos. Dear oh dear, what is this game coming to. We’ve had many different styles of tackles from Inter throughout this season, this takes the cake now. Madpool, being a little miffed by the ref only giving a yellow to Benoit fired a 3rd goal. Reggie Hales the scorer on this occasion. Inter need a goal if they are to remain in this game, and with Ben Kenobi being subbed for Mark Undertaker in the 60th, perhaps this was going to change. 69 minutes in, Inter score. Nikos Papadopoulos scoring. The earlier cross face has finally took Roberto Carlos out, he had to be subbed for Sergio Ramos. Nikos was also subbed, this time for Ronald Ronaldo in the 80th minute. Darrell Sedgewick received a booking in the 88th, which bought this contest to an end. Possession: 54 - 46 Chances: 8 - 4 Man of the Match (Madpool): Reggie Hales Man of the Match (Inter): Steve Sting Final Score: Madpool 3 – Intergalactico Stars 1 Final Table Congratulations to Silverdale for winning the Elite League this season. Reminder The Live Draw is in 30 minutes time. Need someone to update a table for each match, like we had in the last draw. I can do one myself, but it will take sometime to create one. Had a few things to do today, which left me with little time this afternoon to do a lot.

Beat Bubbles 2-0 today. He goes up, i go down. Was kind of relying on one or two teams to not win in order for me to remain up. Still, using this time in the lowers to build a stronger team ready for my return.

I had my perfect job, it was challenging, well paid and had great staff. Only problem was that they committed fraud and the staff paid the price for the management errors. Yes, management got fines and short-term jail sentences. But it was the staff (like me) who lost out big. With their jobs and lively hoods.
