Asunto: England records - forums version

between you and jjk

Is this some kind of sick fantasy of yours?!

;-)

All your thumping victories have twisted your mind. I only fantasise about what insane scheme Ken will come up with next (which is sick enough).

I havent had that many thumping victories!!
Without seeming big headed (and I truly dont mean too) I think I am the better equipped out of the three of us to go into any II. But this is only because I have taken alot of risks with selling trainees to fund the rest of my team and my stadium. I now have 2 decent strikers, 3 decent defenders and 5 quality mid trainees for my first team. But my reserves are now not as strong as they were a few weeks back, so I cant really see myself coping if I lost any of my first teamers through injury or suspension.
My stadium is now 33000 all seated under a roof and I have my coaches sorted in place ready for next season. It will be a challenge, but I am looking forward to it :)

You are not being big headed just realistic, this is only my 3rd season in Sokker so I am totally unprepared and I am the first one to admit it. ;)

I am sure that DanVan1 is also better prepared than me......

Oh you're by far the best prepared alright - 8pt ahead of me on avg rating shows that! To break into the top 40 (i.e. II or higher) and staying there is tough - and despite potentially yo-yoing between II and III I'm still nowhere near - maybe 3 seasons away. In III I've found beating bots and having one decent player (Hopper) is enough to beat superiour sides, with the right tactics. In II, inferior players won't cut it, and I won't have those decent players by next season. You have them now - and should at least consolidate yourself in whichever II you promote to.

wdp74 - I reached II after my 3rd full season, beating a bot in a qualifier. You're not ready to survive there, but you'll learn a lot, and if you can handle logging in to see how much you lose by each week then it will improve you in the long-run. I'm only better prepared by virtue of being 2 seasons ahead of you, and with that experience behind me.

At the time when i got auto promoted to the hardest div 3 i thought it was a really bad thing but now I realise that if i become strong enough to get promoted in that division then i will have a good chance to survive in div 2 just ask villa stars! I think wdp74 doesnt have a quite so hard division 3 so if he gets promoted to division 2 he will not be strong enough to compete.

I agree! lol

I am still training my original trainees when I first joined. :)

your tactics are great though! you don't have the best average ratings in your series but your walking it!

For some reason I tend to play counter attacking, but as my strikers are good it appears to work right now, against II defenders though I would definately struggle. But thanks, credit really must go to the people who mentored me as well as without their help I would probably have made lots of mistakes. ;)

New friendly attendance entry by the way:

Tonights game at home vs Progressive Eels - 8672

Very happy with that :)
Bought in £40k in gate receipts :)

I think The Goat had a friendly crowd of 10k+, great crowd still! ;)

Yup he did, but thats already on there, jjk's game sneaks in at fifth on the list.

Oh ok sorry. ;)

My last 7 home games (league of opponent):

9829 (I), 7106 (III), 10391 (II), 8048 (III), 5898 (III), 10364 (I), 8952 (II),

I think my average of 8655 gets me on the list again!

Anyone want a friendly? :o)

I don't even see any of the money - just the injuries

I did apologise :)
