Season 57

[Pete Cresswell]

A comfortable 8-2 aggregate win for Rugby's Better in the upening round of the Cup, after last season's trouncing by a higher-level Cup draw manipulater facing an abandoned team who's GKs must've retired and not been replaced was a welcome change.

This season's league features both of the finalists from RB's Champions' League last season, so this afternoon sees a re-match of RB's semi-final, against an in-game friend (one who's pretty goood about sending packs too). A repeat of last season's unbeaten League run (24-2-0) looks unlikely however - there's a couple of (theoretically) easy-beat teams, but the other 12 all currently have average quality between 56.9 and 62.2. Bring it on!

Rugby's Better are currently urgently looking for an ML/AML (there is one in the Scout list, but he's old, and barely a Scout - and any more scouts would badly cut into next season's token budget, even if the weekend's lucrative farming trend continues through the season), but otherwise recruitment has been solid, picking up 19yo near-scout Nordgens at GK and DC/DMC and 3 22yo, approaching world-class scouts at ST (with 1-on-1 scorer), DMC/DC (playmaker) and MC (penalty taker). Our DL/DC is out-of-contract at end of season, and probably won't be worth re-signing, though he's good enough for the main bench & starting reserves this season, so will be replaced IF we spot a good replacement in the markets.

It is now common knowledge "Jose Morinhoseux" is the DEVIL, nothing new there. As I have be actively exposing his Demonship for his evil trolling activities, I have be constantly punished by his dirty little cowardly tricks.

I have not had a morning match all last season, and I have a stupid habit of putting my default formation as P-D-B, "Park DA Bus!".

Today was my first match of CL(in the afternoon, as usual), I'm all excited in anticipation, as I was cruelly defeated 3-2(2nd leg) in the CUP by a "Scout Monger", who bought 8! yes 8 scouts! to face little ol' me in the 2nd leg after narrowly winning 2-1 at my place. He is one level higher than me.



As you can see, I miss the first match of my league competition and lose 1:2 away, to a ROBOT! I have to blame myself for sleeping in and forgetting it was the start of the league as I know that his Demonship has it in for me. No chance of perfect win record and maybe it will lose me the title.



In a dream the Devil Jose Morinhoseux was saying "I will Seux you from behind P*nd*h*, how dare you expose me to the masses!"
