Good point. He may have just made the change to be more convenient for him, but the fact that it was 20 minutes after the friendly and that I had only been online about an hour before, makes me think it was another act of gamesmanship on his part. It is much more likely that I had noted the time of the match previously and would only go online shortly before. What I am trying to say, there is a higher chance that a manager will be online for his match time than at a random time picked by the opponent at the last minute.
I take it as a compliment. He must have been so scared of my team that he felt the need to use these tactics. It appears he was right as after all that all he managed was a 1-1 at home. I look forward to seeing him in the final, although I may have to support EVERY team he plays against to get there.
Me? Bitter and vindictive? You bet.
OK, so he's not cheating. But he's not playing fair either.
