Haden

Playing offensive at home against someone playing cautious I get 1 chance they get 5. Ok... Also nice to see teamwork values mean something! Still kudos Mcoy you guessed all my tactics I just feel frustrated at 1 chance after setting offensive I mean there is something badly wrong with that. Still I may be going down but I might be coming up to! Am managing my cousins team Rising Phoenix as he is dead and seem to be doing better with them than my own team lol.

Round 2 Top League: The Journey Continues. The next time that I caught my teams reflection it was on its way to meet you, Thinking of excuses to postpone. You never look like yourself from your side, But your tactics do not hide the fact you knew Bru was approaching your throne. (2 Star) Silverdale Hotpot 1-4 Madpool (2 Star) Silverdale suffered a heavy defeat as they were routed by a magnificent Madpool side. Silverdale played their traditional 4-4-2 against the usual 4-5-1 of Madpool. The match had a high tempo from the outset and Silverdale were awarded a penalty early on, Sidwell stepped up but blasted it over the bar. Both sides attacked back and forth but Gay was set up twice before half time both instinctive short range quick goals that gave Madpool a 2 goal cushion going into half time. The 2nd half brought even more chances, in all their were 24 between both sides. It was Gay on 58 minutes who slammed in a close range volley to get his hat trick and essentially finish the game off. Sidwell found space and nutmegged a Madpool defender before chipping the goalie to get one back. It was Gay who had the final say though, again letting the 5 midfielders push up he stayed in the penalty area and hit in another close range shot to make it 4 for him and 4 for Madpool. Gay was magnificent while Madpool are starting their early season with gusto. Silverdale looked stunned by this display but were a creative force in their own right. (3 Stars) Essex Elites 4-0 The Sixty Fourthers (2 Stars) The Elites won comfortably at home reminding everyone of the calibre of their side as the 64s took a risk and paid the price. The Elites lined up with a 4-4-2 formation against a very risky 3-4-3 64s set up. The Elites looked above average in every area as the 64s frantically tried to get the ball to the other end. The Elites struck after 9 minutes when Sharpe hammered home a thunderous long range shot. The 64s 3 man defence wilted under the pressure giving away an own goal after 15 minutes to make it 2-0. In the 2nd half the Elites clinical approach carried on delivering, Sharpe set up Pollard for a tap in to make it 3-0. A direct free kick from Brammer sealed things up nicely for the Elites leaving the home fans more than satisfied, the 64s may want to take a more conservative approach next time they play away. (3 Stars) Bayern Bru 3-0 Battlestar Odwinica (2 Stars) Bru carried on matching Madpool for great early starters as they beat Odwinica 3-0. Both teams played 4-4-2 but Odwinica found themselves lost in the midfield battle making 0 chances against 7 for Bru. Bru had a penalty just before half time but it was missed by Lindpere who hit the post. At half time MacCalman came on as a sub and lifted the morale of his team immediately, he crossed in a ball for Alnoudji to head in and break the deadlock. Brus manager made another master-stroke of a substitution as Rundberg came on for the goal scorer and headed a goal in himself! It was Lindpere who set this effort up and Lindpere redeemed himself fully for his penalty miss when he scored a close range shot with 3 minutes to go. To nasty injures to Rundberg and Trifkovic soured the end of the game but it was more tactical genius from a Bru manager who is ready to take on the world. (4 Stars) Mcoys Sons 0-0 Roostophe Rovers (3 Stars) The defending champions were held to a 0-0 draw in a frustrating and ill tempered game against Rovers. In the first game of their title defence the Sons were unable to break down a Rovers team that packed their midfield with a 4-5-1 formation against a 4-4-2 from the Sons. In a rather dull game with only 3 chances the only thing of note was the 4 yellow cards and sending off of Laurensen the Rovers defender for a 2nd reckless tackle. It was to late in the game happening in the 90th minute to have an impact however. Rovers will be happy to have frustrated the Sons early ambitions. (3 Stars) Dysonian Wanderers 2-1 Intergalatigo Stars (3 Stars) Wanderers scored a close win against the Stars in a dramatic match. The Wanderers went with an aggressive 3-4-3 against the usual 4-4-2 for Stars. The Stars edged the first half but not much happened, on the 69th minute a Spirito free kick put the Wanderers into the lead. However with just 11 minutes to go Zidane set up Beckham for a looping header to equal the score. Inter buoyed by this subbed on to new players and look set to hold for a great away point. However Boland in injury time stopped a great pass from Sandford and chipped the ball over a helpless Inter goalie to send the home fans into rapturous applause. A tight win for Wanderers as Inter go home disappointed after a spirited display. Most Important Result: Silverdale Hotpot 1-4 Madpool, Madpool stride to a wonderful victory with tactical supremacy. Stylish Play: Essex Elites, the Elites were back to their stylish selves as they won 4-0 with ease. Best Player: Archie Gay, Madpool, with 4 goals who else could it be? Breathtaking stuff. Is taking out Chartreuse Trio a mission impossible? Week 3 Chartreuse Trio: 10 MadDog,7 Rez, 8 Peeps 25 points 9 Elites, 5 J7, 5 Bubbles 19 points The Final Three: 6 Odwin, 4 Tales, 9 Cube 19 points 5 Inter, 2 Seahawks, 4 FedEx 11 points New Nexus: 1 Haden, 6 Rising Phoenix, 3 Ganja, 10 points Week 4 Chartreuse Trio: 9 MadDog,7 Rez, 8 Peeps 24 points The Hurricanes: 8 Elites, 4 J7, 7 Bubbles 19 points The Final Three: 4 Odwin, 6 Tales, 8 Cube 18 points Interhawk Federation: 7 Inter, 2 Seahawks, 4 FedEx 13 points New Nexus: 3 Haden, 5 Rising Phoenix, 3 Ganja, 11 points

Just got a 16 4 Defender from youth academy worth 11.5 mil. Oh yes! Gonna sell as a big cash injection would be good for my club. Anyone wanting to make me a direct offer feel free to do so. He is a Free Kick Specialist and Moody.

Dunno if it would cause clutter or not.

Hmm that looks cool do I attach that to my router and move it around the house?

Slightly miffed at that result, still nevermind if things keep going this way I will be down and ready to come back uber style like Bru!!

If people make an alliance in time they can still participate I will close it off after 5 games.

I have had to take over my cousins team again as he is moving or some shit. Cant believe this match lol! Thought when I set offensive it may cause a few goals but nothing like this haha.

Report 1 Time to Start! If I can get through Oddys defense I can get through that I know it not easy just a matter of fact If I can make it through this report I can get through anything! (5 Stars) Roostophe Rovers 1-0 Essex Elites (3 Stars) Rovers were given a reprieve from relegation last season and took all 3 points from a tactically beaten Elites side. Rovers risked a 3-5-2 line up against 4-4-2 for the Elites. The match had 3 yellow cards and 3 injuries making it hard for either team to get a rhythm going. Indeed Rovers had the only chances of the game and were limited to 4, one of them was a free kick for Sheldon who curled home the 75th goal of his glorious career. Rovers have a point to prove and a tough first game victory against the Elites will help them do that! (4 Stars) Bayern Bru 4-0 Dysonian Wanderers (3 Stars) Bru have come back to the top league after a fabulous season in the Middle League and have brought a whole raft of talented youth with them. They played 4-4-2 against what turned out to be a disastrous 4-3-3 Wanderers formation. MacCalman was inspired throughout this game and whipped in a corner for Helder to header in after 30 seconds. MacCalman linked with fellow midfielder Temizkanoglu who he set up for a headed goal in the 29th minute. In the 2nd half MacCalman was again the creative genius as he crossed in a header for Rundberg and then made space for Helder to smash in his 2nd of the game with a long range shot. Bru had 11 chances to 0 for Wanderers and had 60% of possession MacCalman with his 4 assists made sure Brus first game back in the top league was the one everyone was watching. (3 Stars) Battlestar Odwinica 1-1 Silverdale Hotpot (4 Stars) In an exciting game a much changed Odwinica side were held to a 1-1 draw at home by Silverdale Hotpot. Odwinica went for a 4-4-2 formation against an aggressive 4-3-3 from Silverdale. The game went back and forth with Silverdale having 5 chances and Odwinica having 4. It was only in the 77th minute that veteran striker Sidwell nodded in a floating cross to roars from the away fans. However the captain and young sensation Tygesen found a way past the Silverdale defence and chipped it over a sprawling Silverdale goalie as cool as you like to make it 1-1. Silverdale looked slightly the better side but a draw is probably the right result. (3 Stars) Madpool 4-1 The Sixty Fourthers (2 Stars) The 64s had an unhappy return to the top league as Madpool carried on from where they left off after an impressive season last time around. Both teams played 3-5-2 but Madpool were superior in every part of the field. They had 13 chances to a mere 5 for the 64s, a flurry of goals after 20 minutes set the game alight. Hadley played Monk through to start the scoring before Gay cracked in a short range shot in off the post. Kamal linked with Diz to bring the 64s back into the game, however Hales crossed it in for Hadley to restore Madpools 2 goal cushion before the break. Gay hit in a beauty of a shot in the 2nd half and at that point Madpool seemed to be scoring for fun. Trainer missed a penalty that would have made it 5 but Madpool fans were more than satisfied with the result. The 64s were left worrying about the rest of the season despite a good performance. (5 Stars) Intergalatigo Stars 1-0 Haden United (4 Stars) The Stars beat United in a rather lifeless game that saw them triumph 1-0. The Stars lined up with a 4-4-2 formation while United went for an aggressive 4-3-3 approach. Stars took advantage of the extra man in midfield and edged out United 3-1 in chances. Undertaker set up Beckham for a cleanly took volley to give the Stars a victory with just 9 minutes left. A good 3 points for Stars while United will have wanted to have done better. Most Important Result: Roostophe Rovers 1-0 Essex Elites, a controversial choice but Rovers send a strong signal with this win. Stylish Play: Madpool, Bru were also up for this award but Madpool seemed beyond normal football as they made 13 chances against a midfield that had 5 players in it. Best Player: Davy MacCalman, Bayern Bru, with 4 assists he was at a different level to any other player that was playing today.

I don't think my laptop does N I will look it is a new model though. If I got one of these Shorty is the idea that say I had room A, B and C in that order down a house. If I had the router in Room A and I put this in room B it would make the signal in room C stronger. While without it at the moment only room A and B have a good signal.

Hey guys just brought a laptop and sadly my wireless router can't seem to make a strong enough signal to reach it at the end of the house I live at. Is there a way to make a bridge or boost a wireless signal? I looked at various boosters on amazon but I don't really know what I am buying anyone have any tips/recommendations?

Reports? :p This Sun for top league don't ring mine or MadDogs doorbells we are busy people

Yeh it was kind of tough to decide I am always open to suggestions. The thing is the last day results will be fairer I think as an alliance that slow burns to good results at the end of the season I reckon should get the glory compared to one that had loads of success at the start but faded drastically at the end but what do you guys think? Regardless I will be keeping the records of every week so I can publish two winners at the last game maybe lol. Oh also guys how do you feel about the current Pools betting cap? I am against any increase from the 50k limit at the moment as I feel not enough people use it and it would be an unfair money making machine for the few that do. But others think let the good times roll and they can make their case here. Should the limit go up or not your call. It is 50k atm it could go up to 300k or any 50k step up from 50k eg 100 150...

The points don't get taken over btw. So the final week standings will be the one that counts but I thought it would be fun to keep track of how we are doing.

My internet was down this morning so I couldnt do tactics or get predictions in Alliance Ranking Week 1: Points Explained. Each member of an alliance is given a points ranking based on their position in the league. The lowest position in the league gets 1 point 2nd lowest 2 points etc. Here are the rankings after Week 1. Name, Chartreuse Trio: 10 MadDog,5 Rez, 7 Peeps 22 points 9 Inter, 3 Seahawks, 7 FedEx 19 points 4 Elites, 10 J7, 3 Bubbles 17 points 6 Odwin, 2 Tales, 8 Cube 16 points Name, New Nexus: 3 Haden, 9 Rising Phoenix, 1 Ganja, 13 points Points do not carry over, each week is the new standings but it will be fun to keep a record of where alliances used to rank etc.
