Season 69

[Gert Funck]

Striker Jack Harper rates a 6. We will look for other Strikers in the next 2-3 days to find one to train up. If Harper gets back on track we'll carry over 2 next season, if not he can go sign with Brighton

Come on Harper

I'm drawn against 13 5* active teams,not a single abandoned/weak team.. Great..
Also i am matched against a 3 levels higher team than me in Cup,and his line up is full of 7-8* players although his bench is like 3-4* players so that gives him "only" 6Q bigger than mine.It seems like the champions league would be the easiest as we got 2 weak teams in our group.

Fisher down with a groin strain, so much for having the highest physical/mental on the team....

I usually go with five above, and too I think injury time might be shorter

cost: 4 days injury, 3 blue

Power trained to get a strong team.

First league game of the season and I batter my opponent all game.

I lose 2-1 to his only shots in the game!

Trolled already! Bloody stupid - I knew it was going to happen too as you can just sense it at times.

Leicester Tigers begin League life with a big win

Today Leicester Tigers played out of their skin in the league, beating opponents and possible title contenders Rodrigo Rodri FC 4-2 at home. An early goal from stand-in striker Haddrell (2') impressed fans and team mates and set the confidence levels high. Expectation was raised but the away side scored in the 33 minuet. However two minuets later Lemke (35') scored a magical goal to make it 2-1 at the break. Tigers scored 2 more after the break, Placzek (55') getting the first and Lemke (78') getting the second and his second. The away sides dampened the spirits in the 88 minuet but nothing could be taken away from the home side today. A statement was sent out to the rest of the league with a 4-2 win over a very good side.

Press conference

Cook, the Tigers captain had words of interest to say after the match "Today, i know its only our 3rd game but, today we played at our best and its going to take the club a lot of beating to play like that again for a long while. Unfortunately i was probably one of the worst players on the pitch today and the ratings and statists back that up, but ill be back."

The tigers manager was very impressed with the Tigers "That was one top performance from the lads today, all of the early season hard worked training sessions are seeming to pay off however their is still a lot of work to do, especially in the defensive areas.
"You said yesterday before the league fixtures you should be able to win the league?"
"Yes of course we can, and with a performance like that every game then their is no question we can't. But we cannot get ahead of ourselves, one game has been played, 25 left. Thats a long long way and there are 4 or 5 teams in our league that are capable of winning. Work, hard work is still required. On a final note, i would like to thank the fans, the season tickets went on sale this morning and i have heard lots have been sold already, wow, the team will be looking to pay your support back with trophies!"

The Tigers man of the match scored 2 goals today and 1 assist. Its the very impressive Lemke! "Thank you, thanks, I feel really happy with how I've played today, I think a lot of training help, and we could fit a lot in our schedule due to the late night kick off and the fact that the game was at home. I wasn't the only outstanding player on the pitch though, the whole team was!"

In other news

Striker, Lee made a return to the squad today coming on for 10 minuets at the end after being out for two days with a calf strain that he collected during a friendly. Team manger Terrance said "It wasn't ideal with the injury but it was a quick heal. During his time off, haddrell took his place and played 2 games, scoring in both. There is some serious competition on for the 2nd striker shirt, which is always good."

The chairman of the club Matt has announced that the club has sold 92 season tickets in under 24 hours of opening the sales. "That figure is much higher than Expected after 4 days let alone 1." 58 Season tickets are still to be sold at the club ticket office, prices were included in yesterdays news flash!
