Season 59

[dkb2005]

Well, I've been very inactive and have not posted in here for quite a while. I'm currently Level 5 in my 5th season. Here's the rundown on this season so far:

League:
Currently, Academy FC (41.0*) is in 3rd place. They are 3 points behind first (42.6*), 2 points behind second (41.8*) (though our goal differential is less than both teams) and are 3 points ahead of 4th (41.9*) and 5th (42.3*) (with a better goal differential than both). My next three league games are against 5th, 2nd, and 4th . . . tough run.

Champion's League:
Acadmey FC have progressed to the Quarter Finals, and tied the first leg (away) 1:1. There is only one team left in CL who has a higher rating than my squad, and they happen to be the team I would face in the next round. So, IF I advance from the Quarters, the Semis should be more difficult than the final.

Cup:
Academy FC has advanced to the Cup Semi-Finals. Their upcoming opponent is K.F. Prishtina (41.9*, LVL 6). The other matchup contains two more LVL 6 squads, with ratings of 41.2* and 40.2*. It seems that if I can beat my current opponent, I will have a good chance at taking the Cup.

So, it looks like AFC is in a good position to potential do a double this season. I'm (obviously) hoping for the treble, but league matches have hard and it's tough to find wins against teams in the top 5.

2nd and 3d lost today so things starting to look quiet OK now. Cl first leg 0:2 away,should be my semi final ticket. Cup semis already reached, let's keep the treble alive

[Panzani]

CL: 0-2 win away , my best MC got injured for the 3rd time in 4 days.

League: 1-0 loss . I couldn't be online to watch the game, but it seems that it was a balanced game and he got lucky and scored 1-0.
Fortunately 2nd has played 1-1 against 4th and I'm still 7 points ahead of him.

[Buffs Mad]

League: With 2 points dropped in the league yesreday v the bottom team the Buffs had to get back to winning ways and did, in a 6-0 away win.

Buffs played 4-4-2 v opponents 5-3-2.

Unfortunately the Buffs suffered 2 injuries with Midfielder Souness out for 5 days and Striker McCoist out for 4.

The Buffs' lead is now 9 points and 4th will visit Abbey Park next.

Champions League: Buffs FC travelled away for the first leg. The home side played 4-2N(MC)-3W-1 and the Buffs trooped out in a defensive 'cover-all' 4-5-1V.

Archie Gemmill became the 3rd Buffs injury of the 'week' with a 6 day injury in 33rd min - but at least Baxter found the head of Law from the deadball to make it 1-0. Hutton extracted revenge with a wildly crude tackle which put the home-side's AMC on a stretcher - just in time for HT Tea. The opposition then squared the match from a corner just after the restart. Law rifled one in from range to restore the Buffs lead. The Buffs were getting frustrated that they were not more effective in front of goal and Hutton got his second yellow and was off for a chest-high lunge - although his disappointment seemed only because he was aiming higher. Johnston then finished after a solo mazey-run to give the Buffs some breathing space. Buffs Mad indicated to calm it down but Lambert didn't get the message as he picked up a yellow on 82nd minute and the another on 87.

3-1 win but the Buffs are on the lookout for a billionaire Sugar Daddy so that they can buy off the referees too.

Easy win in league (5-0), and i got my rival in semi-final cup, i think i have ticket for final!

[El Duderino]

Yesterday's match

League: Was up against the 2nd of the league and managed to get away with the 1-0. The three points are in the pocket and I'm closer to the trophee! The team played really well, Nebegleras did some amazing defending.

Today's matches

CL: Talk about bad luck, 2 red cards for my opponent. Between spitting in the face and hand on ball foul, his players were not playing properly. On the other hand, Schreyeck was insanely efficient, present on every goal. Also, win bonus seems to work well.



League: Easy game. Good to have a healthy GA.

Tomorrow's matches

League: All about those 3 points again. Drew last time against him. Let's not make the same mistake.

@kynan "I currently have 10,358 Tokens" ...wow, and here I am, thinking guys who don't splash outrageous amounts of money on this game stand a chance.

well after the lucky 1-1 i got yesterday, today i beat leaders 2-0 and it`s no coincidence that it`s since i was able to field my 1st eleven from yesterday for the first time all season thanks to stupid injuries and in the last 5 games i picked 10 point`s compared to only 8pts in the first 13 games of the season

[Buffs Mad]

League: Buffs FC slip up against 3rd, with a 2-1 home defeat. Can't complain - nothing between the 2 teams and his players performed better on the day. Still got a couple of injuries to key players and suspensions are beginning to bite.

*puts down Excuses for Dummies again until tomorrow*

League lead now 6pts which is more than expected - will be overjoyed if we can get through Cup and CL Semis with any positive gap in the league
