    Is there no transfer window?

    Also oh man it's nearly time for the GRUDGE MATCH of ALL MATCHES. Please, for the love of God, start me in that game.

    I'm disappointed. Histon are so bad that I honestly think we ourselves could actually beat them in real life.

    Nah, no transfer window I know of for non-league sides. Most are free transfers anyway. All of mine are! We've signed some new players! Welcome to the following who have posted decently and/or bugged me enough on #eoff...

    ML: Phil
    ML/R: Jowy
    DL: o_O

    Phil and Jowy are both youth players, but Phil will probably be alternating with Raistlin on the left in the long run with Bubba moving to leftback on a more regular basis instead of switching up to wing sometimes. Also, it's great fun watching this little o_O run around the screen, and also whenever his name starts a sentence he becomes O_O. Which is just fun. I might eventually rename him Mike... but probably not.




    Next games are Hinckley (FA Trophy) and Nuneaton. I think you'll start the latter, Psy, unless you really, really want to face Hinckley again. You and Skyblade tend to sub each other in every game, though.

    DK got caught diving again, as has Jiro. Shauna and Shoden are one yellow away from one match bans, Shauna is now shooting with power, Heath is officially Failridden, Burt's been injured as has Dan, but they both seem to have recovered well. Raist is still out for the count for some time.
    Bow before the mighty Javoo!

    Default C'mon, more chants.

    For Shauna, to go with her Scottish theme (ignore that her player isn't a Scot, note that players will come and go so nationalities of our members will change...): "She would head 500 goals and she would head 500 more just to be the one to head 1,000 goals right past your goalie's paw. Badadada! Badadada! Badadada! Badadada! Badadadumbadadadumbadadum Shauna!"

    Aw, damn, how did I get injured? My character seemed to be playing well, too. Hopefully you guys can manage to survive without me. (though I doubt it)

    Psy is so amped for this next match that it's made me excited for it. Hurry up BoB!

    I'll try to get both matches played tonight! I was hoping for a chatroom audience but it looks like a no-go.

    You were just running around in the opposition third and pulled up, if I recall correctly. Such is the hamstring way.

    If all goes to plan, I'll kick off around 7-8pm tonight. I'll send you a text or something if I remember. If you're wanting to be part of a bigger audience in #eoff for the games I play, by the way, check onto it during Saturday and Sunday mornings as Jiro, mike and Phil are all on at that point and I tend to play a fair few games with running commentary.

    I'm hoping to start streaming the matches eventually, too. I won't always be able to provide audio commentary (depends on what Danielle is doing at the time), but I'll probably still provide text commentary.

    EDIT: And here are the results.


    (SPOILER)A very drab game and despite the win I wasn't happy with the performance. The big blow was two early injuries, particularly Shauna who is now out for 5-6 weeks. Massive, massive impact on the team.


    (SPOILER)It was scripted as it should be for a while - Psy injured one of their players and scored a goal. After that, despite some good work on our wings by Bubba and Psy (also Shoden at rightback), we just came up with nothing up front or down the middle. I switched to 4-5-1 after we went 2-1 down and while we looked way better, they scored another on the break and that was that. Gotta say, we missed Shauna big time. I'll be on the hunt for a short-term replacement to hopefully bolster our defence, particularly someone who can crack out the jumps and heading as we struggled at times there.

    We've now played four away games in a row and won three of them. A couple of home games next - a FA Trophy game against FC Halifax and a league game against 7th-placed Droylsden. We're sitting sixth.

    DISASTER

    At least I scored and nailed one of the scum.

    I had a Plan B which Daniel did not execute. Namely the detonation of a thermonuclear bomb, seeing both the game abandoned and the filthy slum purged in one fell blow.

    I just read through the chat logs for both games.

    As far as I can tell Phil got no minutes in the second match, and we got a thrashing, coincidence? I think not.

    Jesus, what's with all the injuries of our top players? Soccer players are such wusses.

    Shauna being out pretty much kills the team. Notice how there's been no goals scored for us via corner kick in the games she has been out, because our beast with the giant, potentially ball-magnetized head is not standing in the box.
