Right folks you should be able to take part in the sponsoprship quiz now to raise yourselves a healthy 1 million. Just did mine there so time to raid the transfer market!

was that your first or second sponsorship activity. I have already done one (on the first day) and don't appear to currently have the option to do another.

Xavi6

Twas my second. Got a decent amount in the kitty now.

Also, I've too many midfielders in the squad so I'm selling a couple of 5 rated lads if anyone's interested. Goin cheap.

Mitch Connor

AAAAAAWWWWWWWWWWWW, no fair! I though sponsorship activities only became available every seven days.

Do you get more cuase you are a VIP member? I didn't think you did (thought it was just extra stats) so it'll make the league a little unbalanced if people are getting twice the money.

Xavi6

Yeah I was surprised that the option was there for me this morning but it was no lie.

I don't get extra money or that for being VIP no. I woulda thought everyone would be getting it today.

Mitch Connor

maybe some other people will be online shortly and let us know if they got an activity today too.

Man, I need the money too! Need to bring in some decent midfielders!

Xavi6

What sort of rating are you looking for in a midfielder? My lads are going for 300k each and are at a good age.

Mitch Connor

probably need a 6, and a 5. too many 4s in my midfield (and not enough midfielders!!)

Unfortunately, I only have 600k at the moment, so by budget won't stretch to actually get these players!

You get a sponsorship activity once a week. It'll pop up soon enough.

I've only had one with this team so far.

Well the estimated value for the lads I'm selling is 600k each but they're both going for 300k. Both 29 year olds so still mileage in the oul tank. Deadline ends Sunday so feel free to take one off my hands.

I just really need some good defenders so that's why I'm gettin rid ASAP!

Xavi6

Yeah fair point. Well keep an eye anyway. I'm sure one or both will still be there. Deadlines actually midnight Saturday I just realised so basically tomorrow night. No bids so far.

You get your sponsorship money on whateverday you fist signed up for X11. Xavi, when he orginally joined u,p must be on a Thursday so he got the initial 1,000,000 when setting up the new team and will now get his weekly money every Thursday (same day for all his teams)

For those who signed up on Tuesday they will get their next 1,000,000 next Tuesday and then every Tuesday after that

Just wondering but how do you put someone up for sale anyway?

Click on the player, to bring up his profile. On the right hand side of the profile are a number of options including 'transfer list' and 'sack'

Vex Willems

is there a limit to the number of players you can have on the transfer list? I have a squad of 20 with 3 on the transfer list, what to get rid of a few more but can't. Also 20 is the max number per squad yeah?

The max squad is 20. You can only have 3 on the market at any 1 time.

How do you go about seeing these players? Are they in the normal transfer list

Mitch Connor

also, players that have been sacked, do they go on to the transfer list and have to be bid on, even though they have no club?

MuPpItJoCkEy

Don't mind me, posted a comment but didn't read what I was posting to properly.

roryc

I have a match due to start at 2:30pm today... does that mean it actually starts at 1:30pm Irish time yeh?

What happens when the match is on, do you actually do anything and how long does it last?


Cheers


EDIT: playing Inter Corta Rovers, is the manager around to sweat the match?

Roddy23

That was some Press Release by Ste05. Took me a while to get through the first act:pac:

roryc

lol destroyed them 4-1... I like this game

Pepe LeFrits

I got this in my mailbox:

Vico Allegri has been given a medal for bravery by the king after saving his cat from a tree. This has made the player so happy, proud and stuck-up that he has completely forgotten to train all week. He loses some form.

Gay.

They should be but they'll be far down it and you'll have to refine your search in order to get to them.

Alternatively just click on my team and go into my squad. That should work I think.

Mitch Connor

JaapSai with another solid 2-0 win in pre-season. Shocking first half performance though.

Hammered again.

You dont do anything in the match. It just happens automatically. The result is usually available within a minute or 2

Mitch Connor

what is the point in subs/reserves. is it just in case a player gets injured before or during the match? I can't see that it makes subs based on performance.

When you look at your squad, what does the FT thing stand for? Below it are either green or red arrows...

If a player gets injured during the game the sub comes in. You cant change anything after you select your team during the game. Only injuries will make a sub come, your player can be as crap as you want and makes no difference

Form Tendency after the last game. If your striker had form of 15 and played a stinker, missed a peno etc then he might drop to 8 and he would have a red arrow. Red is bad Green is good !!!

Your players form can go up or down after a game. This includes subs and players not in the line up too.

The Rules pages on the site are actually pretty good and give more detail on Form, skill, FT etc..;)

I guess it just keeps things nice and simple. Means people dont have to dedicate loads of time to games. Just pick team and tactics and let the game look after the rest.

There's Connall Finnan and Coleman Hogan. Not much difference between them.

Cant believe I didnt score in the first half, unbelievable!

KevIRL

Oh Ralph you little scamp...


Whilst enjoying a few adult beverages and watching wrestling on television with friends, Ralph Tullie tried to imitate some wrestling moves. Big mistake! A full nelson should never be attempted by a half wit, as he learned the hard way. Luckily, Ralph Tullie will only be out of action for 5 days and has decided wisely to stick to his day job.

Xavi6

Lol I love those little messages you get.

I got this with my other team -

A parcel containing pornographic films is delivered to Gavin Hegarty by mistake. He is delighted, but his wife catches him watching them, and they have a huge row. She does not believe that they were delivered by mistake. He is very distracted at training the next day and cannot concentrate. He loses some form as a result.

Drugs in the game

During a routine check Gordan Liffey showed signs of having used illegal substances. Since the second test was also positive Gordan Liffey will be suspended for 3 matches.

LOL class. Read your press release as well Des. You gonna sack him? If you let him off with it, it could be seen by your other players that you approve of such carry on!

Also I'm a hard ass!!! No messing with me. Fergie eat your heart out!!

Having misplaced the car keys, Mainchín Duff was 33 minutes late for training. You have decided to make an example of Mainchín Duff to the squad and torn a strip off the poor soul. Mainchín Duff is so distraught that inevitably there is a loss in the player's form.
