We need someone else who can give great head.
We need someone else who can give great head.
Okay, so I've got a bit ahead of the thread. I'm going to summarise this with a lot of videos and what text I can put in from memory. xD
(SPOILER)Our cup run is over before it really got started, but I've always concentrated on the league so I'm not incredibly bothered. Cup runs are only worthwhile later in this game as far as I'm concerned. I want to go up the divisions more than anything. Despite getting on the scoresheet, Dan got two yellow cards, both for diving. Dammit, man. To be fair, MILF, Skyblade, Boobs, Cuch and Tassles all got booked. Tassles had a really bad debut, I gotta say. xD Pike scored from a beautiful free kick, none of the camera angles allowed for the highlights did it justice.
At this point, Boobs got injured. This meant Tassles & Cuch as our central defence and Psychokitty as cover.
(SPOILER)Despite the scoreline, we had more shots on target than they did, more shots than they did, we had even possession and it could be argued better chances, too. We still managed a few goals, but clearly our defence was the issue once more. Tassles and Mike were kinda rubbish.
(SPOILER)A terrible performance by us. We had five shots to their 16. Lucky they scored an own goal, really. Just awful.
- video won't go HD for some reason, seems it's a YouTube issue.
(SPOILER)A better performance against an old enemy. Solid all round, really, and a much deserved win. Tassles' first taste of victory, he scored a goal and got sent off two minutes into extra time after collecting a second yellow. What changed in this match? Well, Shauna's back, of course.
(SPOILER)We played far, far, far better than Workington did. This loss is a very, very harsh one - we had so many more shots! It was a very frustrating loss, but better to lose while playing well than to lose because we play crap. It gives you a good feeling for the next game.
(SPOILER)The positive energy amongst our players shows through and we walk all over Harrogate. They're 20th now, but still, this is a great showing by ourselves, particularly Phil who really starred. Jowy had his debut in this game, too, but came off injured after 44 minutes.
(SPOILER)Shauna got a straight red early on, and after that we struggled. Last time Shauna went off early (that time because of injury), I think Psy still managed a goal in that game or in the game after... well, he must get riled up at Shauna's departures because that goal was a cracker. Bloody hell. Still, we struggled at the back with Cuch & Tassles just not able to cope. Missing Shauna & Boobs, and it looks like that will continue. I would say this is our new 'worst performance'. We're somehow still 5th in the league! Some of the clubs below us have a game or two in hand though.
Shauna is likely out for three matches. Boobs has 2-3 weeks 'til returning. Raist has "between 9 days and 4 weeks" but we'll have to ease him back in through The Failridden.
EDIT: Oh yeah, I forgot to say that along with Tassles, I've signed a few strikers - Aulayna, NeoCracker and GoBo. I want solid competition for the striker places as Jiro & Edge haven't been competing hard enough for my liking. Fingers crossed some time in the Failridden will mean enough of our strikers get match fit and can compete at a better level.
Bow before the mighty Javoo!
"Got booked"? I am unfamiliar with the meaning of that term in relation to this sport.
My friend Delzethin is currently running a GoFundMe account to pay for some extended medical troubles he's had. He's had chronic issues and lifetime troubles that have really crippled his career opportunities, and he's trying to get enough funding to get back to a stable medical situation. If you like his content, please support his GoFundMe, or even just contribute to his Patreon.
He can really use a hand with this, and any support you can offer is appreciated.
Ohhh man that kick I made was glorious![]()
"Booked" means put in the referee's book of penalties, which generally means a yellow card.
Re: Workington match. How the hell did that player get the ball so far beyond our defense without it being offsides? O_o
Shauna.![]()
Also, between 9 days and 4 weeks is a pretty big range. xD
Seriously. I may need to get a new smittenkitten in. But I'm hoping we'll see you back sooner rather than later, although Bubba & Phil have both played excellently in your absence...
Just played another match as I was in the mood.
(SPOILER)Reversed last game's scoreline to put it in our favour, so that was good! Not to mention Cuch & Tassles did well enough at the back to only concede two, which with all love to them is pretty good. xD Cuch and GoBo both scored their first goals, Manus finally scored after about 360 minutes without a goal and Phil is giving Bubba some great competition on the left wing, so it'll be interesting to see how it all works out when Raist is back (prediction: Bubba to slot back to leftback or come on as an impact player). Pike hit the woodwork twice, Tassles once.
Dan got injured and is out for 3-4 weeks, so GoBo will likely be involved more and Neo/Aulayna may get a start or two (or, you know, Edge and Jiro... but they've not done anything in the Failridden to suggest I should opt for them, sorry guys).
Finally: Scotty, Cuch, Phil and Manus were in team of the week.Dominant!
Bow before the mighty Javoo!
Apart from the scoring part, this is just like real life!Manus finally scored after about 360 minutes without a goal
there was a picture here
Our defense is still pretty awful. We desperately need Boobs.

I'm hoping that this weekend I can actually see some games live in chat, especially now that Phil is dominating.
Gotta agree. I know they're just highlights, but in some of those goals against there's holes in our defense bigger than the ones in a Hinckley player's socks.
(I hate Hinckley now and I don't even know where it is. This thread has a strange power)
That second goal against me in the last game was awful. Those can be tricky in real life, easy for me to lose sight of the ball with the defense in front of me. Also, Penalty kicks suck as a GK.
Edit: I really miss playing in real life.
I don't seem to be doing too badly, despite being banned for a game earlier.
Need to work on crippling the opposition without being penalised.
LET THE HAMMER FALL
Some full on screamers in that massive update, Auntie Pike's free kick and Pauw's volley in particular, although I did also like the goal when me, Pauw and Phil combined to shred the trout out of harrogate with passes.
Comedy FM injury rate is still dire I see, good to know. Also why the smurf are there so many penalties in this game? Don't remember ever seeing that before, mebbe it's a lower league thing though.
I'm also quite amused by my players apparent hatred of the rest of the team, especially when he scores or assists someone else and the entire team run off with the goalscorer celebrating and my guy just runs as far away from them as he can. What a miserable trout.
Ahahaha, I totally noticed that on occasion, actually. Pretty sure you'll still be with us scoring goals next season, though. The player who I gave your name was used by me up until League Two when I used him for F.C. United in my longer playthrough. He remains the 5th highest goalscorer for my management run in that game, scoring 48 goals (38 of them in his first two seasons). In the end he left because he wanted a bigger paycheck than I was willing to give him. Omar Koroma, in case you're wondering. He certainly scores goals more in the game than in real life... xD
Now, let's see how we got on in our next few matches...
EDIT: NEVER MIND. Just as I was typing out this post, my PC arsed up and I've just lost three matches that we won in a row. God dammit.![]()
