Whoops, just realized it. Well my plan is going to have a back-up back-up striker in case my three strikers got injured...perhaps I'll just buy a new, younger one next season.

another close and exciting league
CL comming later, should be good news, but who knows:rolleyes:
League: The Buffs cruise to a 4-0 away win against 12th but it was rather uninspiring.
The Buffs went in at HT with 1 goal to show for their efforts, a goal from Dalglish assisted by Harper. At HT strikers Dalglish and Harper switched sides. In the second half Dalglish got his second and Harper added 2.
Another injury today with DC/DR Alan Hutton out for 2 days.
Shocking performance by DL/DC Andy Robertson who let the side down with a 6. :(
GK Andy Goram is rumoured to be in the running to appear in the next Strictly Come Dancing with another Se-ven!
So no change at the top. With all 3 top teams winning the Buffs lead remains 4 pts.
Commentary
The Broadcasters' commentary Team had a busy day today with every Buffs' player spoken about and, on the opposition side, only the GK Mustera failed to get a mention directly. Although maybe they just forgot his name when they said "The Goalkeeper had no chance".
PS. From an initial pass over a range of commentaries it looks like many more players get mentions than sticks in my mind. ;)
Just taken a peek on our Champions League semi final opponents. To quote Top Gear's James May - "Oh cock."

It's Arezzo FC all over again :v
To make things "interesting" I'm the weakest team among the final four - an underdog between the giants indeed!
*reaches for clean underwear*
You can do it :D
CL: Buffs FC win 2-0 in the CL 2nd leg to progress 2-1 on aggregate but boy did Lord Nordeus make them sweat.
2-0 up after 16 minutes, courtesy of Harper and Robertson (Harper), and Buffs Mad was ready to open the cans. Further chances came......and went. The Buffs pressed and chased and carve out openings but 1 goal for the opposition would see them through. "Just Wide", "Shakes...Netting", "Magnificent Save", "Hits the wall" "Skims the bar", "Charged Down....the 3rd wouldn't come.....feck feck feck.
Then as the 85th minute ticked over suddenly the possession and threat were gone and came the FK against, CK against, "clean through"....but they survived. :D

After the first goal I felt pretty convinced I would make it. although I could se he had bought several Scout players and powertrained them. This of course made me feel even better. And there must be a very bitter manager out there.
The rest in CL are all level 30 and way better than my little team. So winning is very unlikely, like this advange :rolleyes:
1-1 against the leader, without attend and he had 7 supporter that 3 were multi accounts, I had 3 supporters so +11 for him, Kluivert injuried in the 83' after score in the 56' thank's to a Rozomashvili's assistance. The 2nd lost so, the league is sure for him coz have 51 points the 2nd 46 and the 3rd 41,,, then 40 and 39 LOL
I think you can win. The gap isn't too bad. :)
Anyway, update on my end and Rhondda Rovers played Acre Street in the second leg of the Champions League quarter finals following a 2-2 away in the first leg. A low draw or a win would see us through. Unfortunately, we conceded an early goal and, despite pushing and attacking as much as possible (even going three up top in a 3-4-3 formation), we could not get the equaliser and lost 1-0, meaning our triple crown attempt is now over. :(

In the League, the reserves put pride back into the team by hammering FC Utd 7-0 in their back yard. Unfortunately, the manager was unable to properly attend due to a knackered car. I also forgot to get a screenshot.
This leaves us with a 12 point gap and 3 wins from 7 should seal it.
League: Won 4:1, hold 1st place on goal differential tie-breaker.
Champions: Advanced to Semi-finals, behind a 7:0 win (14:1 aggregate)! Ironically, I used hard defending and long passing for the entirety of both legs. Hard defended our way to 14 goals in the CL QF's, LOL. Seems kind of unrealistic to me!!!
Cup: Semi-finals begin tomorrow.
