Season 44

HEADLINE: Weak start in the opening for Balkan Boyz...

We started our debut with a poor opening against the Spanish "Luis FC" early on this morning. The game ended in a 0 - 2 away win, but looking at the differences between these two teams the result should and would have been bigger. Mateo Kovačić and Adem Ljajić scored for the awayside and M.Kovačić was declared as MoM. I didn't had the opportunity to follow the game due work, but perhaps it was for the best. Would probably start shouting/swearing. Anyway a win is a win and it brings us 3 points.

If we take a look at the league table and the opposition, then its' probably one of the "easiest" draws I've got so far and I shouldn't have any difficulties winning the league or get a 26-0-0 record. But with the game and result from today, you never know. We face a much weaker opposition tomorrow, I hope we will trash them!

It's nice to see the return of Balkan Boyz are a 2 season lay off for tanking. Think you did the right thing being highest level on your server to drop 2 levels back.

Yeah it's quite nice to be back. But something tells me that we could end up struggeling against these ****ty 3-4* teams. Todays performance was awful and many of the players played like 1*. But I will continue coaching the team until all players fall down to 4*, then perhaps become semi-active or quite. Too much bull**** on this server

By the sounds of this, you may need to tank another few seasons...

Nah, done with tanking. Now I'm just gonna play until we reach the bottom...

we had a silly start too. We faced a trash bottom team 20Q weaker and barely made it 1-2 for us untill the last 5 mins when we went 1-4. Imho, a script makes stronger teams start weak as to make league alive a bit at least.

Yeah, well I hope so. I saw a couple of lvl 9 teams lose to 5* yesterday in their opening games, incl the former CUP winner. We face one of the "better" weaker teams today, but I believe with me present this time - we could win by a 5 goal margin. It is the CUP game later on that worries me, gonna be a tough one

League Round 1 - Dream Start

July Fourth 2-0 Tapahka

July Fourth 134.4 4-5-1 V then 70 minutes - Tapahka 124.9 Wide Diamond then 65 minutes 4-1-2W-3

We faced with a tough opener to our league campaign as we faced a Bulgarian active manager that watches their games quite freqently, It was a quiet first half as both teams took time to find their way into the new league season and Petersen had made the best chance for us but he put it wide. We started the second half the stronger and looked to now try and win the game, Watson had a couple of chances of getting us infront as well as a Kusama long range drive, Papaleo broke clear and was fouled in the area before taking the penalty and sending us into the lead... Tapahka soon reacted by moving a AMC to bring on a new ST in which we replied by from going 4-5-1 V to the Hexagon. We were getting more chances and soon Beckett ran past a couple of a defenders and finished it into the bottom corner for 2-0 and that just about ended it as a contest, Pietropaolo missed one late effort to score from coming off the subs bench but we won well in the end.

Goals: Papaleo (46 PEN) Beckett (76) MOTM: Beckett.

Team Talk: That is the start we wanted and to make things better our other rivals BESIKTAS and QPR also lost their opening games which gives us a 3 point lead on any of our strongest challengers for the title.

Revised Title Odds: July Fourth 1/5, BESIKTAS 9/2, Tapahka 9/1, QPR 12/1, 20/1 BAR
