Sorry I was away for the weekend...in Chatteris where they have no Internet, electricity or running water

Interested

I received an offer for Neymar of £75M and Balotelli - which of course no-one in their right mind would accept lol. So I rejected it and the manager immediately made another bid of £76M and Balotelli...as if the extra £1M was going to sway me lol. As I can't make Neymar unavailable any more I'm just going to ignore the bid because if I reject it again he'll just make another one. So let's not penalise managers for ignoring bids, how about being able to reject bids from certain managers (it lets you choose who you accept PMs from - so why not bids too??)

Had some strange commentary in one of my matches today - this sort of thing happened twice (a goal / not goal for both sides although the match ended 0-0). This is the first one : SAVED - Goal for Braintree Town! DABRO connects well with a header on goal. ABNER takes the corner towards the back post. The ball rolls out for a corner to Braintree Town. This is the second one : MISSED - Goal for Sutton United! He strikes a shot for the top corner. The ball evades everyone and falls to THOMPSON. DIAWARA swings the ball into the box. The ball rolls out for a corner to Sutto

Braintree please Bob! (sorry, Matt)

Carlisle United please sir!

And for the REALLY lazy you'd need a "Search Players At Unmanaged Clubs With More Than 21 Players" box as well lol

It's very possible because as well as 3 points for a win you can be awarded 10 points for winning a cup, 10 points for winning the league (5 for runner-up in both cases) as well as 5 points for a win against a team considered better than yours (which sounds like what might have happened). I've seen sneaky people on 20+ points from 2 games when they've joined a team at the end of the season in order to play one game and win the league title...and then stay one more game to win the Charity Shield too!!

Player hogging isn't really an issue in Gold Championships as at the start of a new one, all the good players are spread out over lots of teams (as they are in real life), there isn't just one team hogging them all. It only becomes an issue if lots of managers leave and other teams plunder their now unmanaged teams to get the best players - in some cases leaving Gold Championships with only 20 or 30 existing managers who have all the best players between them. Yes nobody is likely to take a team in that GC when they see this - but would anyone want to take a team in that old GC anyway when t

Re: How much is comical the actual game's engine? Bradford City beat Chelsea (4-2 after being 2-0 down) in this season's F.A. Cup, on the same day Middlesborough beat Manchester City - in real life - enough said (these things happen, get over it)

Re: From Rags To Riches II - The World Club Version. It's a bit late now though lol

Re: From Rags To Riches II - The World Club Version. Errrrr no I beat you...so sorry about that although no harm done as you're still going to get promoted and I'm still not lol

Re: From Rags To Riches II - The World Club Version. 75th minute arrowfest pays off

Re: From Rags To Riches II - The World Club Version. Still about and chugging along in mid-table mediocrity after nearly getting promoted last season...nothing to see here

Re: Gold Championship 1 News I remember once Teb sent me several PMs trying to get one of my players despite me telling him I wasn't selling (I had one player rated over 88 and he already had about 200 and I didn't think he needed mine as well) so I ended up blocking him... ...only to get another PM from him saying "What did you block me for?" so he must have unblocked himself in order to do that which was a little bit naughty!
