Hello,

I recent started hosting a network game with a guy called Scotty. This has proven out to be a good game and at the moment we have 4 active regular members. Our highest point during the season was 7. Unfortunately Scotty has been unable to continue due to scheduling commitments, and the other two haven't really been active, so we have decided to get some fresh blood in!.

At the moment, the teams that are taken are;

Liverpool - Andy
Tottenham - Lewis
Swansea - Fin
Everton - Moh

We have just finished the first season, and it has been one **** of a season, so here's a little summary of what has gone on so you can get a bit of personal interest.

First of all, i'll start with myself, my season with Liverpool has been a pretty fantastic one really, a dramatic improvement from what Kenny Racist had been doing. At the start of the season I managed to sign the fantastic Willian, Nilmar, Jan Vertognhen, John Obi Mikel and Milan Badelj as my main players. I've always bought Quintero but he's not really ready and at the moment, he probaly won't ever be. In January I've brought in Edinson Cavani, for a whopping £35m, and Gregory Van Der Wiel, who i clumsily forgot to register. I managed to go unbeaten until just around Christmas area, when I finally lost my first game to Man Utd at old trafford (4-2).. With Gerrard missing the chance to make it 3-2 Liverpool in the 83rd minute from the spot, United went on to win with two goals in the last 5minutes. I managed to get as far as the quarter finals of the europa, where Lewis would knock me out with a scoreline of about 8-6 aggregate. Over the whole season, both Willian (AMC) and Nilmar (ST) got 35 goals each. Willian has been nominated for WOrld Player of the Year.

Lewis (Tottenham) has also had what can only be seen as an excellent season, despite some disappointment in the final stages of competitions. In the league he had spent half the season at the top, and the second half in second place, and thats where he finished. He's found the disposal of top teams quite easily and has acquired a very good squad. Unfortunately he lost in the Semi final of the FA Cup, on penalties I believe, and he also managed to get to the final of the Europa League. Once again, he was very unlucky, 90th minute winner from Inter Milan saw him lose 1-0, a valiant effort none the less.

Finn and Moh both finished respectively in 9th and 10th, a very good overall season for Swansea, and an okay season for Moh, both know and have set their sights on the future rather than the present. Many positives for both.

So yeah, as you can see there is a good quality in this game, and we are very active. We are looking for new players though, and if you're at all interested and feel you can play most of the time (Skill Level doesnt matter, we enjoy the game regardless of whether you are top or bottom).

Basic Rules;

- No corner exploits.
- Game on full speed or one/two notches below.
- You are allowed to use monthly installments (at the end of the day, it WILL ruin your finances if you abuse it).
- You are allowed to offer for players from other clubs (in real life, players are always aware of any bid made)
- You MUST have skype and be online whilst playing.
- Would be benefiicial if you talked a reasonable amount, to keep up the conversation.
- I would like to get voice chat on the go, so if you have a mic, this will be a bonus.
- We play when there is a majority online. For example, 4 players atm, we must have 3 online... so 6 players would require 4, 8 would require 5, etc.

-

I can't think of anything else, but hope this is appealing to some, I would leave my skype on here, but i don't want it to be added by everybody, and I'll be looking out for certain people who i feel are appropriate. This is a long-term game and we dont want people who will quit after a few games.

Cheers x.
 
So keen!!!

I am keen as to join a league, just curious where you are based? Europe, Oceania etc?
 
Hey mate, I am still unsure as to wether or not I'm coming back after my "scheduling commitments" but where did newcastle finish? and would you save them for us for when i get back, and I'll let you know then wether or not I am?
 
I'm not reserving teams mate. If someone new wants to go Newcastle they're allowed to.
 
Hi mate, very interested as I've just had a nasty injury and have a lot of recovering time!! Could you plz give me more details how to join if you would like me?
 
Great season all round Andy, some good signings! Do you still do that other game on the side too that you joined that was in like 2020 something ?

Also, if people would like to join but go into teh Championship, we're fine with that, as it benefits us all in different ways.
 
hey Andy again mate, I know you won't reserve a team for me, but I prefer LLM so when I get back I might do what you said on your previous post (Y)

League Details PLS!!!

Can U please give me your hamachi network details!!! I am keen to play and have the time available to play!!! Will get skype, or msg me your skype details pls so i can get in contact with u?
 
Would be interested in this..Mac was broke there for a while but all is fixed now..have steam and have played alot of network games before, but as you know people always leave so its hard getting a committed group of people to play.

Message me or whatever if you think theres room for another!
 
Unfortunately this appears to have died a death, and rather than continue it and gather 3 new players, it's probaly best to start a fresh so that the newbies can compete, since my Liverpool team is quite dominant at the moment.

We still have two players from the oriignal, but want 2-4 more players, we'd like to start tonight, but can start a different night if possible.

Also, considering it being a league 2 upwards game, as a challenge to get a team to the premier league first before the new game comes out. Skype details are andy4efc - leave a message saying your online times etc otherwise it'll be rejected (i get loads of new additions).
