Interesting games today. Been quite nice to chill and relax without worrying about results!

Rest of Last Tuesdays games! We will make Xpert more famous than Xpert can Noodle Esporte Clube 4-2 Cubic County Noodle scored their first win of the season over a inconsistent County side. County played a very young defense who were exposed quickly as Batistuta hit in a goal off the post after 3 minutes. County hit back with Dale providing young striker Harley with a easy finish to make it 1-1. Both teams scored another couple to make it 2-2 soon after the break, but it was Noodle who were the more creative and Batistuta who was in great form easily broke away from the County defense to make it 3, captain Zakay also found himself able to run past the County back four to make it 4-2. The report was able to learn that County let go young defender Vranken after this performance and gave a stern warning to other defensive players. For Noodle it was a badly needed win which they fully deserved. AFC Rez Rabies 2-1 Edd Kirby Athletic Rabies utterly shocked Athletic when they came out and started with a 4-2-4 formation. Athletic themselves played a 4-3-3 thinking that would be offensive enough! Both teams only created a few chances with their midfields being so lacking in players. The middle of the pitch only had 5 players fighting for the ball most of the time. However Rabies when they did get chances made a great impression, as Gladh fed Wiberg two chances that he converted. The first was a long range shot that Wiberg smashed in and the second was a Gladh through ball that Wiberg attached himself to and scored. Young Athletic striker Mckenna found a way past the Rabies defense at the death to score a consolation and his 1st goal of the season. However it was Rabies who with extreme tactics chalked up their first win of the season. Emo Blades 1-0 Battlestar Odwinica This match was seen by many to be a possible title contenders battle and while not being the most exciting match in the league was a nail biter as the two teams tested each other. The Blades played 4-5-1 hoping to dominate play and this tactic seemed to work well as their midfield produced a solid goal early on, Piechink headed in a cross to make it 1-0. After this the game petered out slightly, both midfields were a good match for each other and both teams are known for their strong defensive displays. In the end the Blades took the points and keep up their ominous looking early run, for Odwinica its another loss but they still look like a team that are gunning for two promotions in two seasons. DuDs Baggies 3-0 Mcoys Sons Another team that is going for a double promotion is the Baggies. Facing the last of the promoted sides the Sons they comprehensively beat them by 3 goals to 0. The Baggies played 3-5-2 to the Sons 4-3-3 but looked much more at ease with their play than a haphazard Sons. The Baggies earned more possession and made 5 chances to the Sons 2. Out of these they scored 3 with one player from each part of the pitch (bar the goalie) putting one in. After this assault the Sons could have given themselves a glimmer of hope at the 59 minute mark as they were awarded a penalty. But Baggies striker Johnston with cat like reflexes pushed the ball over the bar and kept Baggies clean sheet intact. The game turned slightly nasty after this as two Baggies scorers were injured and two Sons players given yellow cards. But the Baggies won't care a great performance promotion worthy. As for the Sons still no victory things are starting to look a tad grim. Analysis Most Important Result: Emo Blades 1-0 Battlestar Odwinica, boring but important result as these two look to be title contenders. Turned on the Style Award: Noodle Esporte Club, 10 chances and 4 goals awesome creative display. Player of the Day: Micael Wiberg, AFC Rez Rabies, him and Gladh share this award really as they both combined to give Rabies sheer offensive power. Recall United 2-1 Complete Domstercool Recall United playing a 5-4-1 formation got a hard fought win against Domstercool in a lively match. United created 11 chances but with only 1 striker they found it hard to convert this into goals. Regardless of this Domstercool were very poor and United had as noted a large amount of chances to strike. They took two of these chances as Streep in one of his best games hit in a half volley to put United ahead. New signing Askey found himself up front alone but he scored his first ever goal when he found himself with the ball in the box and slotted one past the goalie. Domstercool tried to hit back and while floating a ball into the cross in the melee Whiteside scored an unfortunate own goal. However this was to little to late and Recall picked up a solid win as both these teams try to break from the pack. Soap Box Utd 4-1 Martinists Men Utd and the Men took part in a brutal match that saw Utd eventually triumph with a large victory. In the first 28 minutes there were 4 yellow cards and 2 injuries including a horrific one to Utd captain and star player Alfen. Men's player Lambert was also stretchered off just after the 2nd half began, he will also be out of action for a long time. In the end Utd attacked the Men through this chaos with their 3-4-3 formation. Perisjn the Utd striker had a superb game scoring a hat-trick. He broke away from the Men's defense, headed another in and then shot in a sweetly struck goal just before the end of the game. The Men really stood no chance and may rather have had a quieter game if they knew they were going to lose anyway. For Utd promotion really does seem assured with these results things are looking very positive indeed for them. Dudezz 1-2 Eights United Eights United earned their first win of the season against a lacking Dudezz. United playing 4-3-3 had an extra force in their attack as they went after the Dudezz.. While the Dudezz had much more possession they failed to make the most of it. Also their goalkeeper Birchill gave one of the worst performances the report has ever seen. With this in mind it was Sandelin the 18 year old who curled in a direct free kick for his first ever goal to put United in the lead. Stone who has been prolfic for Dudezz this season hit one in a few minutes later to tie it up at 1-1. United's best striker Flatland playing his 1st game for the club hit a belter home that the hopeless Birchill could only stare at as it hit the back of the net. Eights United needed the win to get off the bottom of the table, for Dudezz it comes as a bit of a bump in their promotion campaign. They were not awful but their defense was pretty bad. Made of Win 0-4 Discount Viagra Viagra defeated the managerless Made of Win with an early Flood of goals that saw them 2-0 before half time. With a 4-3-3 formation Viagra seemed to be out for the kill and after the break they were rewarded with two more goals. For a new team their offensive score was very impressive with most of their players playing above their potential. With a shock victory over Shorty, Discount Viagra look to be the dark horse team this season that many bookies are cutting odds on to be promoted. Analysis Most Important Result: Dudezz 1-2 Eights United, United get off the mark and Dudezz lose a chance to make a big impact on the top teams. Turned on the Style Award: Soap Box Utd, 14 chances and 4 goals, quite a scary team to play against. Player of the Day: Miel Persijn, Soap Box Utd, a hat trick marked this veterans 94th appearance for his club, awesome stuff. Obviously everyone (including me!) is sick and tired of late reports. I think I am just going to have to skip a report to catch up. I am seeing family soon so may miss this Tuesdays report. As usual sorry guys! Family, GTP applications, sadly no love life to use as an excuse but I will try my best to keep it all flowing.

Oh dear god that sounds so organised. These past two seasons have been nice and peaceful I dread for the future!

I like to stagger ages and skills and have golden generations ready for the future. The player that is actually annoying me is the piece of garbage Harrington he was a 5 23 year old when he joined me! A 5!!! Hes progressed 2 bars in 10 years I've no idea how hes escaped my wrath all these years.

Its all getting a bit to crowded in the dressing room atm though. I feel I need to give someone an early retirement but who!

I gotta feeling this is gonna be a good season Happenstance FC 3-0 MadDog United Happenstance became the first promoted side to win a game and moved out of the relegation zone at the expense of fellow promotees MadDog. Happenstance were a side inspired and played with a great sense of team work. Alejo and Curtis scored from a free kick and a penalty early on as Happenstance won on every area of the pitch. United's 4-5-1 formation proved ineffectual as Happenstance's midfield were on fine form. Curtis headed in a second to make it 3-0, while Uniteds day got worse as youth Sedgewick on his first game made two rash tackles and was sent off. Happenstance were deserved winners and need to now keep momentum up, as for MadDog United they are in a must win game against Tin Can Club next. Roostophe Rovers 1-1 Tin Can Club This was a tale of two keepers as Rovers youth keeper Tsuzuki had a real mare of a game against a weakened Tin Can Club attack. While Tin Can's goalie Runarsson had a splendid game and was a huge credit to the game being a draw. Tin Can Club went ahead to the amazement of their fans as Unnarsson converted a spot kick given to them after the Rovers goalie upended a striker. Tin Can Clubs defense was supreme but all of Rovers pressure eventually paid off in the 2nd half when the captain Hapgood blasted home the ball from close range after some sustained attacking play. Moments later Rovers attacked again and Little a young striker for Rovers was pushed in the box, he stepped up to take the penalty and smashed it over the bar. He held his head in his hands as his older team mates gathered round him to comfort him. Tin Can Club made sure Rovers paid for this mistake and earned a fabulous draw, as for Rovers their season has yet to hit full stride and youth players are not making the best impression. The Sixty Fourthers 2-3 Essex Elites Elites seem to be the team that comes up with shocks just when they are needed. These two teams went back and forth with 64s scoring first via a graceful Tigris header. Gledhill proved his worth again as a new player as he thumped home an equalizer from outside the box. Hooke the Elites captain had a stunning game and set up their 2nd goal turning one player, weaving down the wing and curling in a ball for Carpenter to head home. 64's did have more chances though and made it 2-2 soon after as Yaketi flicked one in from a corner. The 2nd half was tight as both teams badly wanted a victory. It was the Elites though who had never beaten the 64s before today who stepped up and grabbed the points. Hooke floated forward a 30 yard pass over the 64s defense that Canham chested down in the box and hit in. The Elites are a team that noone can quite figure out bad results one week, incredible feats the next, truly the wildcards of the league. The 64s lost the championship last season because of results like this they need to finish games off when they get a lead. Secret United 0-0 Haden United Two teams that have come out the traps sprinting have been these two. Rather than a classic they both showed that they want the championship so much they are unwilling to risk anything at this point. Both teams played 4-4-2 and seemed to know each others moves off by heart. The result will probably be regarded as a triumph for Haden United as they were away. However it is the case of winning a battle rather than a war. Watch the return match these two have when the stakes will be much higher. Analysis Most Important Result: The 64s 2-3 Essex Elites, The Elites seem to turn up every time in this part of the awards, a great victory for them. Turned on the Style Award: Happenstance FC, they needed to show some flair and they did can they build on this now? Player of the Day: Tin Can Club, Birkir Runarsson, his heroics along with his defenses wonderful effort gained his team a incredible point.

He needs my result!

Fridays updates we are nearly back on track wow! Can you read Domstercools mind? Dysonism F.C 1-3 Secret United Dysonism suffered a big loss to an impressive United who were in fine form at the Temple of Dysonism. Dysonism played 3-5-2 but seemed unable to cope with Uniteds fine attacking display as Crowley headed two in before the first half was done. While they had 5 in midfield Dysonism created the same amount of chances as United and shared the same possession level. A 3rd goal for United just after the half restarted finished the match with a Sandford header for Dysonism being a consolation rather than a real threat. United have now gained great wins over the Elites and Dysonism away and are looking like a real threat for the title. Dysonism on the other hand seem to have so much potential but defiantly had an off game today. Tin Can Club 1-3 The Sixty Fourthers The Sixty Fourthers showed they are back in full form as they scored a deserved victory over struggling Tin Can Club. Tin Can Club played 4-3-3 and attempted to outscore the 64s, however like the previous match the 64s more traditional 4-4-2 formation held solid. The 64s with their stronger midfield had 3 times the amount of chances of Tin Can Club. They took the lead after 8 minutes as Rikabi headed one past the goalie. However when Tin Can did make chances they converted, youth striker Saaf scored his first goal for the club as he was set up with a wonderful through ball by Gottskalk. The 64s quality shone through though and goals by Yaketi and Kamal ensured the victory. The 64s win puts them in the ascendancy and looking for fresh victims, for Tin Can Club they are quickly learning this league is unforgiving and need to get some results pretty quickly to stay in it. Haden United 2-0 Essex Elites United beat the Elites in a contest were United while not at their best shut the Elites down. With 7 chances to 1 and nearly 60% possession United always looked like winning if they could turn their dominance of the ball into goals. Agostini after coming on as a sub skilfully chested down a set piece cross and hit in the first goal pass the flailing goalie. Headon found himself with the ball moments before the 1st half and scored the 44th goal of his career as he turned a defender and lobbed it over the goalies head. The Elites were far from hopeless but lacked a certain game changing ability and looked unable to step up to the plate as they came out in the 2nd half. United are keeping the win streak going and are out the blocks fast while the Elites still look like they could fall into trouble if they are not careful. Happenstance FC 2-2 Roostophe Rovers Happenstance looked like they had stage fright as defending champions Rovers scored after 10 minutes with Sheldon drilling in a fierce free kick. Another star player Bond headed in the 28th goal of his career to cement the feeling that Happenstance were heading for another loss. However Rovers lost crucial defender Nugent in the 26th minute to a nasty tackle. Happenstance seemed lifted by this fact and club legend Burbage found a way through the weakened Rovers defense to make it 2-1 before half time. After half time Burbage worked his way down Rovers win and swung in a cross that Burnell connected with to make it 2-2. Rovers had nothing left to offer and it was Happenstance who were searching for the win. However Rovers did hold out and lost another 2 points many would have expected them to take. For Happenstance they fought hard for their first points and come away ready to build on this game. Analysis Most Important Result: Happenstance FC 2-2 Roostophe Rovers, great comeback for Happenstance earning a heroic draw, Rovers may rue the lost points later in the season. Turned on the Style Award: The 64s, played with great style to show they may well be the side of the moment. Player of the Day: Shaun Burbage, Happenstance FC, scored one and set one up a true club legend earned his team a crucial point. Silverdale Hotpot 1-1 Noodle Esporte Clube These two teams have had a few battles in their time and seem to stay in the same leagues as each other, however Noodle has never triumphed over Silverdale. Today was no different but Noodle will feel better with the outcome. Both teams played 4-4-2 but Silverdale seemed to have more coherence to their attack with 8 chances to Noodles 3. Despite this Noodle struck first as young defender Pesquero struck a looping header home to shock the home fans. A spout of yellow cards and injuries threated to undermine the good football that was being played, this was forgotten as Silverdale legend Sidwell slotted in the 26th goal of his career to make things 1-1. Silverdale pushed forward for more but a stirring effort from Noodles defense and goalie made sure both teams took something home from this match. Both these teams are veterans of this league and it is hard to tell where they will end up in this league but their rivalry will surely be fired up for the rematch. Battlestar Odwinica 3-1 AFC Rez Rabies Odwinica suffered a large blow in this match that should be reported first before any of the goals. New star defender Cabrera was badly injured as he fell awkwardly and twisted his ankle in a gruesome looking injury on 16 minutes. He will be out until early December in what is a cruel blow for Odwinica. After seeing this incident the rest of Odwinicas players rallied forward to do the best without their fallen team mate. Collin and Tate combined as Tate headed in a Collin cross to make it 1-0 to Odwinica. Tate scored again after the break and Collin set up another goal this time for Groves as the two players had great games to give Odwinica the win. Rabies played 4-3-3 and Wiberg scored a consolation goal, but the great defending Passoni and other Odwinica defenders made sure it was only 1. Rabies suffer their first loss while Odwinica prove they can function without their stars. DuDs Baggies 2-3 Emo Blades Two teams that many are tipping to be near the top of this two close to call league participated in a thriller today. Baggies wary of the Blades defensive reputation played 4-3-3 and seemed to have the early momentum. As Blades star goalie Packham was badly injured and they took the lead minutes later as Gurara struck a shot that went in off the post. However Higgs curled in a goal of his own before half time to make it 1-1 going into the break. Piechnik assisted by Berenger rose above the Baggies defense and headed a goal in to make it 2-1 to the Blades. However with the home crowd behind them the Baggies hit back as Guara produced some magical dribbling skills taking it past two defenders before whacking it home. With moments to go this back and forth game was given one last bit of drama as Piechnik nutmegged a Baggies defender and flicked it past their goalie. It was the end to an incredible game where 3 points were deserved by both teams but it was the Blades who took home all the glory. Cubic County 2-1 Edd Kirby Athletic County badly needed some confidence to be injected into their side and this game may have given it to them. The game was tension filled and 4 yellow cards were handed out in the 1st half with no goals from either team. County came out the brighter team and as they hurtled forward a cross forced a mistake by Athletic player Bennington who headed the goal into his net. County were made to fight for their first win though, as Bennington made up for his mistake heading the ball into the correct net late in the 2nd half. County fans were leaving already in the 81st minute just as Hewitt scored an incredible diving header to give County a deserved victory. The fans went wild and Countys future looked a bit brighter. Analysis Most Important Result: DuDs Baggies 2-3 Emo Blades, great match and great win for the Blades this one may affect promotions down the line. Turned on the Style Award: Emo Blades, had to come out their shells and fight for a dramatic win with attacking football. Player of the Day: Rudolf Piechnik, Emo Blades, a thorn in the Baggies side his goals may help his side later in the season to promotion or even a championship. Complete Domstercool 3-2 Martinsts Men These two teams participated in a dramatic match that nearly gave the Men their first away win. Midfielder Johnson first broke away from the Domstercool defense after 4 minutes to make it 1-0 and then headed in a White cross to give the Men some huge momentum. This was combined with Domstercools midfielder Siddall being badly injured. However Domstercool were not done and their sole striker Rodwell toe poked in a cross to make it 2-1 to the Men. After half time various late challenges meant both sides were given a tally of yellow cards. Through this chaos Domstercool earned two more goals the first a cleanly struck shot by Richards just outside the 6 yard box and the second a wonder goal by Mashiter that went into the top left corner from outside the box. As both sides went at each other various nasty tackles flew in with White and Richards being sent off leaving both sides with 10 men. In the end Domstercool closed out this dramatic match to at last record a win, but the Men showed spirit in this bitter match. Jaffa Munchers 3-1 Recall United Some bad discipline meant United's failure to gain any points from Munchers in matches past and present continued. After 28 minutes United gave away a penalty which captain Haky coolly converted for the Munchers. United's star duo of Hollingdale and Wallgren combined to make things level. This was very short lived as Munchers regained the lead via a Albalah shot a minute later! In the 2nd half any chances of a United fightback were dashed as striker Deacon pushed over Munchers goalkeeper after a heated confrontation. He was given a straight red and United lost any potential bite they had, Gasbo curled a effort in from outside the box to make it 3 and finish the game. Munchers and United are two teams that are both tipped to be promoted and the rematch will be an interesting one. Dudezz 3-1 Made of Win Dudezz gained 3 points against manager less Made of Win in an entertaining match. Winston the hat trick hero scored first to signal another miracle victory for Made of Win. However this time it was not to be. Dudezz with Hand at the back keeping an organized defense pushed forward scoring 3 times with Stone again making a great impact. He swung in a deadly cross for the 2nd goal for Hannam who was another star player for Dudezz. He then set Stone up who broke away from the lackluster Made of Win defense. Dudezz are outsiders but are chalking up wins against veteran teams that have fallen into disrepair. Made of Win just want some love from a manager! Discount Viagra 2-1 Soap Box Utd Viagra earned a famous victory over Utd, it is their first big win and one they deserved. Playing 4-3-3 they showed no fear. Beans commanded a weakened midfield and set up Ewing for the first Viagra goal. However a side with Utds potential didn't let Viagra win that easy. Bose proved his worth with another goal for Utd. But Beans was inspired and threaded the ball through for Flood who slid his shot past the keeper. Utd had no response, they played some youth players and paid the price. But this is not to take anything away from Viagra who earnt themselves a standing ovation from their home fans. Analysis Most Important Result: Discount Viagra 2-1 Soap Box Utd, great victory for Viagra and a bit of a stumble for one of the strongest team in the league. Turned on the Style Award: Dudezz, played with a real flair that should make other teams take notice. Player of the Day: David Beans, Dudezz, played well above his estimated level and set up 2 goals that gave Dudezz a heroic victory.

This is how to go you have to think long term. So you may get relegated but come back in 2 seasons time as a uber side.
-
Wow Japan and NA really dropped the ball with this one. EU isn't even great it just looks better. This game is such a classic I wonder why they are releasing a sequel with those sale figures? I'm glad they are though! lol
-
Happy with that result. I kind of figured Moria would guess all my tactics but I didn't really have a viable B game plus I thought if he somehow didn't guess correctly I would sneak a win. Lost all my away games to the big 4 last season so this is an improvement!

When the Report comes down When the wheels touch ground And you feel like it's all over There's another round for you The Sixty Fourthers 1-0 Happenstance FC The 64s made sure they gained an important win against struggling Happenstance in a game were they dominated possession and chances but lacked at times a vital punch. Happenstance found it hard to make any impact in a quiet first half. The 64s ensured the win with a goal by the ever impressive Kamal who slotted one in from a corner. After a surprising first game draw this was not quite 64s at their best but was a win none the less. As for Happenstance they only ever looked like getting a draw from this game at the best. Tin Can Club 0-3 Haden United Tin Can Club failed to make an impact against an in form United who played some impressive football to win 3-0 away. Tin Can Club played 4-3-3 and tried to take the game to United but left their midfield underpowered and had less chances and possession than United. All the goals came from Uniteds midfield bar an unfortunate own goal at the end of the game. The other two were a shot by Eveleens set up by Dinsdale and a breakaway goal by Agostini slotted through by Calcone. It was a hard game for Tin Can Club to bounce back from but they have to try and move forward. For United tougher tests will come but they are experiencing a very positive start to the sesaon. Essex Elites 1-0 Dysonism F.C The Elites scored a vital first win against Dysonism in what was an intriguing and ill tempered match. 4 yellow cards were handed out in the first 30 mins of the game and Dysonisms captian Dunwell was badly injured in a reckless tackle after 29 minutes. While Dysonism dominated possession and chances without Dunwell at the back when the Elites got their one chance they took it. Midfielder Ling created space for himself and hit a shot that drove itself directly into the bottom right hand corner of the goal. Later in the match the Elites had a defender sent off but still managed to hang on to take the win. Most of the drama in this game came from the aggressive nature of both teams rather than the football played but the Elites gained their first points of the campaign and will be happy with that. Roostophe Rovers 4-0 MadDog United Rovers were in stunning form as they played the first match of their campaign to try and defend their title. After 25 minutes they had scored 4 times and the match was effectively over. Sheldon was on top form curling in a free kick and setting up a goal. United played 5-4-1 in an attempt to stop a result like this but their was not much they could do. To confound their afternoon they had a penalty given to them which midfield star Hadley blasted over the bar. For Rovers this is a great start and shows they really are the team still to beat. For United like all the newly promoted teams they are struggling and need to pick up points somewhere fast. Analysis Most Important Result: Essex Elites 1 Dysonism F.C, a needed win for the Elites and a bad result for Dysonism who dominated most of the game. Turned on the Style Award: Roostophe Rovers, 4 goals in the first 25 minutes of the match offensive force on an awesome scale. Player of the Day: Ali Kamal, The 64s, The 64s needed a man to take the game by the scruff of the neck and score and Kamal did just that. Battlestar Odwinica 2-0 Cubic County Odwinica met Cubic County in a match that saw two contrasting styles. County played 3-4-3 and tried to out gun an Odwinica who played 4-4-2 with their two new veteran star defenders Cabrera and Passoni. These two men along with the captain of the team kept the Odwinica defense rock solid. Not only this but Passoni curled in free kick just outside the box to give Odwinica the lead. This was followed up late in the game as Collin hit in his 10th goal for Odwinica in his career. Odwinica are back on track after their opening loss but County still need to get a win if they want to avoid a repeat of last season. Edd Kirby Athletic 2-0 Silverdale Hotpot Athletic have never lost to Hotpot and won against them again today in a match that was full of late end drama. Both teams played 4-3-3 but were unable to make many chances to complement their attacking style of play. For Hotpot things took a turn for the worse as star striker Sidwell was forced to retire from the match after sustaining a minor injury. It wasn't until 4 minutes remained though until Athletic made a break through. Bennington scored his first goal for the club as he chested down a cross and blasted it in. Moments later Gascoigne made sure it was a victory with a crisp header in. Both these teams know they can go up from this league and Silverdale will want to get that first win against Athletic in their next encounter. AFC Rez Rabies 1-1 DuDs Baggies After beating Cube away in the opening game the Baggies wanted to repeat the trick again against Rabies. However they proved to be tougher opponents and the Baggies had to be satisfied with a point. It was the Baggies who had more chances in a cagey match but Rabies put enough pressure on to win a penalty which Wiberg converted with ease. However future star midfielder Zipper volleyed home an swinging corner ball to make it 1-1. Both sides were equal in play and neither had any real flair, it is the Baggies who will have profited from this result more as Rabies still look for 3 points from another source. Emo Blades 1-1 Mcoys Sons Another match that was a rather slow starting affair was one between two of the more respected tactical managers as the Blades took on the Sons for the first time. After a quiet first half the Sons struck first via a header from Harris that rebounded in off the post to make it 1-0. However as the Blades had their backs against the wall they knew they had to start playing more aggressive football. Their response was a dramatic one as Zeca burst past the Sons defense and wrong footed the goalie to score a superb goal. Both teams laid back after this and a draw seemed a fair result and a good one for the Sons. Analysis Most Important Result: Battlestar Odwinica 2-0 Cubic County, another loss for County and a good win for Odwinica. Turned on the Style Award: Battlestar Odwinica, not the most stylish of game days for any teams but Odwinica played with some flair. Player of the Day: Pasquale Passoni, secured Odwinicas defense and hit in a great direct free kick. Made of Win 3-0 Eights United Made of Win may have an absent manager but it didn't stop them from scoring a great win against Eights United. Winston was on sterling form for Win as he scored a hat-trick to make the victory an inevitable one. Sprinting past Uniteds woeful defense on two separate occasions wasn't good enough for Winston who later deftly poked in a close range shot to make it 3. The loss is embarrassing for United but they are themselves a new side who still seem to have real form issues as all their players are performing under par. Discount Viagra 1-0 Complete Domstercool Viagra scored their first ever win with a hard fought 1-0 victory against Domstercool. Playing 4-3-3 they put pressure on the veteran side and scored after 3 minutes as Flood headed the ball in. Domstercool frankly had nothing to offer in return their striking force seems to be a really weak force even against new teams like Viagra. Viagras midfield failed to make much more of an impact but the damage had already been done. Viagra supporters were happy as their team cruised to their first points in the league and their first victory a job well done! Soap Box Utd 3-0 Dudezz Utd kept their impressive start to the season going as they decimated Dudezz in a comfortable fashion. Utd played 3-4-3 and had confidence gleaming from all of their players however the first half lacked any goals for either side. The captain Aflen started the scoring off as his freekick ricocheted off the bar into the net. Rosando scored soon after then Aflen set up Bose from another one of his free kicks to make it 3-0. Utd were the deserved winners with 9 chances and are establishing themselves as one of the dominant players of this league. Dudezz have started well to though and need to try and keep up momentum after this blow to their confidence. Martinsts Men 2-1 Jaffa Munchers The Men earned a great victory over the Munchers in a tense match that nearly boiled over as both teams tried to get what they could from it. Irving and Millen led a thrilling first few minutes as they scored one each within the first 6 minutes of the game. This shocked the Munchers who retaliated with a break away to make it 2-1. However the game was full of injuries and yellow cards as both teams scrapped to try and take the intuitive. However it was the Men who made chance after chance and should have made it 3 as they were awarded a penalty which was saved by the Munchers goalie. In the end 2-1 was the final score and the Men earned their first competitive win of their clubs existence against a side that many tip to be promoted. Analysis Most Important Result: Marinsts Men 2-1 Jaffa Munchers, good hard fought for win by the Men against a tough Munchers side. Turned on the Style Award: Soap Box Utd, 9 chances and a 3-0 win impressive stuff. Player of the Day: Deane Winston, Made of Win, a classy hat-trick to seal an unexpected victory. Still behind still trying to get life in order but here are week 2's games! Will try to keep doing releases and get finally back on track on Friday when I will start interviews.

Good times rolling in, crunch match against Secret next. The middle league is a classic. The bottom one still refuses to accept draws. Dyson and the Elites could be in a bit of trouble by the looks of it I really hope one of the new teams stays up.

Last Friday Update Don't think about all the losses you feel Martinists Men 0-3 Recall United The Men are a new club that the report welcomes to the great NE xpert leagues, sadly Recall United were not so welcoming. United shut down the Men with 5 chances to 1 displaying a dominance in the midfield battle. This was no surprise as United played 4-5-1 and their midfield captain Streep had an incredible game. He scored twice in the first half then curled in a beautiful cross for the 3rd. With 3 rivals promoted United who finished 6th last season will be looking to be promoted this season. The Men on the other hand will want to score some victories and stabilize their side in a league that offers no punishment for finding your feet. Complete Domstercool 0-3 Dudezz Another new team Dudezz also participated in a game were the away team won 3-0, except in this game they were the away team! Domstercool seem to have lost the will to play football with a lack of training in the off season really showing in their opening game. Their two strikers had incredibly bad games with audible booing being directed towards them from the home fans. None of their 6 chances looked like going in. On the other hand Dudezz strikers shot above their weight with 3 goals from two humble players. Stone scored the first with a 6th minute header, him and confusingly named Stones scored another two just before the game ended to make it a 3-0 trashing. A great start for Dudezz while Domstercool look lifeless. Jaffa Munchers 4-1 Discount Viagra Munchers are another team like Recall United that have to be strong contenders for promotion. Today they blew open new team Viagra with a dominant display, although it was a win that was not secure into the 71st minute. Before that Viagra had made it 1-1 after an early Munchers goal. A quick succession of goals by Haky, McAnuff and Gasbo made the win seem easier than it was. Until that point Viagra had held firm but soon the defense they had erected came crumbling down. Munchers last season failed to beat the big teams of the league but this season they are one of the biggest and this win proved it. For Viagra they have to collect themselves and move on to their next match. Eights United 0-4 Soap Box Utd After two seasons of decline can Soap Box finally live up to their reputation as one of the most tactically sound teams in any league? On this evidence they can, another new team Eights United sadly were no match for Soap Box. After a tight first half Soap Box with their confident 3-4-3 formation opened Eights United up. Ivansson the veteran Utd striker was on incredible form as he scored 4 goals in 20 minutes to utterly destroy any hopes United had of salvaging anything from this game. His display was supreme and showed how Utd when they are on form can be devastating. Favorites to win the league? Could well be. Analysis Most Important Result: Complete Domstercool 0-3 Dudezz, Dudezz's get off to a blistering start while fans are wondering if Domstercool still exist. Turned on the Style Award: Jaffa Munchers, 11 chances and 4 goals they rang circles round Viagra. Player of the Day: Bert-Ake Ivansson, Soap Box Utd, 4 goals in 20 minutes pretty much the best the report has ever seen. Interviews incoming and promises broken. Sorry guys life is manic atm! I am going to get back on track big time at the weekend so we will be all up to date. No draws in this league so far I like their style cut-throat!

Friday 1st game Catch up Standing next to the top league but this season will be the best league Silverdale Hotpot 2-1 Battlestar Odwinica Silverdale started their season off well against newly promoted Odwinica winning 2-1. Both teams shared possession and chances equally and went at each other with moderate 4-4-2 formations. It took until the 2nd half for a goal to be scored as unlucky Murray scored an own goal trying to clear the ball off his line. Tate headed in a fine goal for the 5th of his career to make things 1-1 but Silverdale fans rejoiced as star defender Nethercott deftly side footed a winner in with 5 minutes to go. The win was a good one for Silverdale but Odwinica won't be to disappointed and will look forward to the return tie. Mcoys Sons 2-2 AFC Rez Rabies A match between a couple of sides that were two leagues apart last season was despite this gap a very entertaining affair for all. Sons showing a lack of intimation played a 4-3-3 against Rabies, the game flowed back and forth as Rabies hit first with star striker Wiberg sprinting past a docile Sons defense to score. However Rabies responded quickly as Harris hit a goal in off the post after just a minute. Sons dominated chances made even with their 3 midfielders but it was Rabies who took the lead again as veteran Zellman made no mistakes when he was given a clear chance in the box to score. The drama was not over though! With 3 minutes to go Harris was given a beautiful through ball from Gee and nutmegged the goalie to make it 2-2. A thrilling match that emphasizes why the Championship league may be the one to watch this season. Cubic County 0-3 DuDs Baggies Another match between 2 sides that were two leagues apart last season. However this time the Baggies scored an incredible away victory against a awful County. County seemed to lack any spark and only created 3 chances to the Baggies 8. Elliot provided Baggies on the other hand with a huge spark! Having a great game scoring a blistering long range shot and setting up the Baggies 3rd goal. Simpson scored an early penalty to start this victory off. The Baggies couldn't really have asked for a better start their team seems to be bursting with talent and ready to tackle this league. County on the other hand after a dreadful previous season will have been shaken by this victory and quickly need to score a win to get off to a better start this time around. Edd Kirby Athletic 1-1 Noodle Esporte Clube Finally two teams that were both very much in this league last season battled it out to a 1-1 draw. These two teams have played now 5 times with 4 of the matches being draws and the 1 victory being Noodles. This draw was a dramatic one as Eden curled in a beauty of a shot for Noodle with 4 minutes to go before Athletic much to their fans relief made it 1-1 as Bowling headed it in between the legs of Sousa. On balance Noodle were the better team but there wasn't much to separate the two and Athletics dramatic improvement at the end of last season has seemed to have come into play at the start of this one. A fine game and a good start to the season for both teams. Analysis Most Important Result: Cubic County 0-3 DuDs Baggies, a wonderful start for the Baggies but County seem to be in crisis mode already! Turned on the Style Award: DuDs Baggies, incredible play by them 8 chances and 3 goals away to a team that was in the top league last season. Player of the Day: Edgar Gee, Mcoys Sons, helped control the midfield battle with only 2 team-mates helping him and set up both Sons goals. Other catch up will be tomorrow with Tuesdays games. Everyone is being shy so far no interviews for the reports! Yet there's so much to discuss!

Get your average form up asap and in your matches play a stronger line up with say 1 or 2 youth players. I see in your last match you left two of your best on the bench! You have a lot of training to do but enjoy the lower league once you get on a role get your form up just aim to win as many as poss and get exp for all your youth. Talking of which maybe try and get say an 18 year old 4 for midfield to replace a 25 year old one.

Nice one! I would recommend you sort your team out a bit though. Try and keep form high and get all players playing. To do this reducing your sqaud a bit might be a good idea. That defender Ritchie really has no positive part to play in your team apart from raising the average age in matches (its good to have it over 25 for each part of your team) The attacker Whale is also a waste of space. If you have younger players that are higher skilled than older ones it may be time to get rid of them. Not always though there are lots of factors to think of including skills and age averages. Oddy is resident Xpert expert. He started again with a new team cause he was sad we kept beating him (lies). Check out his season old team in the middle league to see how to construct a good one. Sorry have gone on a bit here! Well done on your first win again! lol

While I am happy I won I'm not pleased the 3 promoted side have 1 point between them in 6 games. One new side has to stay up surely! Its quite unhealthy if they all went down. Still we will see. I reckon me Villan and Secret are looking the best teams so far but its still very very early days. The middle league rocks though way more interesting than the top one atm.
