Mini update my end.

Rhondda Rovers reserves went up against KKP away in the League and managed to gain a comfortable victory 6-0. However, Nordeus clearly viewed my comments and gave Chikin a 5 day injury. Magic sponge. Now one day.



Meanwhile, the main team went up against T11 friend Meltano in the second leg of the Champions League at home. While the scoreline was a little closer, we still managed to win 3-2, meaning a 6-3 win on aggregate and passage to the semi finals.



The sending off in this game was due to spitting. Disgusting bugger.

Lastly, Rhondda Rovers are trying to get as much money as possible in preparation for next season after some unusual late transfer activity a few days ago. The target is to try and break even by the end of the season (some 4M or so out at present), so fingers crossed.

Through to CL Semi-finals...

One of the finest stoppers ever played for Celtic 1888, Jamie McShane left the club today looking for new challenge... He was playing very good as 2-star player, but was struggling as 1-star... He never got rating 5 and in first 4 seasons (103 games) he only got rating 6 seven times (13 times in total)...

Champions: Won 6:1 (9:1 agg) to advance to Semi-Finals.

League: Won 2:1 against 3rd. 2nd fell against 4th and we're now 13 points clear atop the league. Its been a long time since we've led by this much at this stage of the season. 5th place supported us today, although it may be one a support of "We're coming for you in the Champions League and want you to know it," as they present our next obstacle in the CL. One thing is for sure, they'll prove a far stiffer challenge than our Round of 16 and QTR-finals opposition (7:0) (9:1).

I apologize for the photo not loading. Technology hasn't been my friend today!!!

IDK if I was lucky or unlucky. Thankfully I scraped through to the Champions League semis 2-2 on aggregate (won on away goals). I faced a weaker team that was one level above me. After dominating the first leg but only winning 1-0 at Spartan Bridge, I was a bit worried but thought that it would probably be a draw, since he only had 38 possession in the first game. Well, the possession didn't change much, but the result did. Despite the stats looking more or less even, or a bit in favor of him, he absolutely DOMINATED me with me and a friend attending and him not. I'm not going to complain much, since in the end I got through on away goals, but this worries me for the rest of the competition as although I am the strongest team left but there are teams stronger than this one. Here are pictures of the match. BTW I made two subs in the last ten minutes but they didn't process.

You left your midfield rather open for a strong 3(4) center midfield opponent IMO, maybe thats why you got dominated

Yes, my both of my MC's were out (one through a training injury, one through a ban). I had planned to play a similar formation to him but in the end had to stick with this. Probably should have put my DMC farther up though but didn't think of it at the time.
