A keeper injury would hurt me also very much, but at least on all other positions my team is well prepared for an injury or 2... Injuries happen too frequently as to let them ruin my season. BTW, I think it's a lot better since no +5 or higher injuries can't happen as that can kind of kill your player...

Won my cup match away 1-6 (which was a little bit too much margin), but next week I face a team that is also from Div5, but I am still playing away. I guess, I need a lot of luck to win that (and to get a home cup game which happened long long time ago for the last time)

My first week training Keeper and I get this...

Quote:

Andy Kempf
Training hard and no fooling around with his team-mates helped improve his goalkeeping skill from passable to solid.

Quintin Link
Training hard and no fooling around with his team-mates helped improve his goalkeeping skill from passable to solid.

Kempf is a 24 yr old keeper I bought right out of the box. I decided to give him one week of training to see if I could get lucky and.. cha-ching he popped right off. I bought him for 15K and will now hopefully see him sell for around 200K (USD), Once he sells my club will be down to 17 players. Trying to keep the club small whilst I bully bot teams.

Link is going to be a long term player for me. I searched and searched for a US kid with some possibilities and I am very happy that he popped his first week as well.

+6/-5 on form.. guys jumped 2 levels up and one went 2 levels down

Overall a good week.

For players over 30 a +2 is very similar to a +5...

did you wait til exactly midnight to post that or was it happenstance?

socralynnek · 15-08-2011, 09:34

For me, that wasn't at midnight. Somewhere is always midnight, so every 60th post will be on midnight on average...

But that wasn't better before anyway (ok, it was easier getting 10 doctors, but +5 with 10 doctors before is worse than +2 with 3 doctors now, I think.

Lost, a bit unfair, 1-0 away, bringing an end to a very nice run of wins. I did manage a PIC and fielding at least the poorer defencetrainees. All eyes on wednesdays cupmatch now.

socralynnek · 15-08-2011, 11:30

Won 3-2 at home. Deserved and important, because place 4 might not be that easy to reach.

MOTSed and won 3-0. I'm alone in first place right now.

undeserved 2-3 loss against the former number 8. Stadium was only half full (29K in 60k stadium). So starting to loose money on a two weekly basis. I am now facing the 2 toughest opponents. So it will be probably be getting worse.

Crap. I played a match in Taiwan, and apparently they play on tuesday there

Strangely enough my standard lineup wasn't used. No training for my trainees, but my GK got some wingback time.
