Offical IE Boards Match Cup Thread

I thought it might be a good idea to separate match discussions from the general cup discussions.

So, match thoughts before the game? I'll be honest and say that I'm playing a B team with NWIN, so no need to TNT Dave

I am also playing with NWIM.

It makes sense

JohnButler

I'll also be playing WNWIM against Orizio's Scorched Earth.

Looking forward to it as he has beaten me before so i am after sweet revenge! Will be a toughie though as their a good team. But weve put in the training and were confident of a good result!!:cool:

Orizio

I will be playing WNWIM, and beating JohnButler's team by 20 points+.

JohnButler

I just finalised my team, mainly reserves because my first team LTNT'ed over the weekend. You should win really, considering you can put out your full team with good energy. Statistically your much better as well.

You are going to have some fun coding that results table!
But I can safetly say, that Wexford Blues will be on top of league 4. In fact, you can just save your self the PHP hassle and just award me the trophy now!

Is Forza Juve Orizio's "other" team? WNWIM and hoping not to be slaughtered.

Preparing myself mentally for a hammering right now haha

The rebels

This whole week is pretty much a disaster for me... just got home so had no time to fire my excess players, pick my team or change my tactics, so I reckon I'm just gonna call this week a goner.

dave13

my team are knackered so ive put out a B team. this could go badly but I have to concentrate on the league

dreamer_ire

Just in from work and never had the chance to reset my team/tactics

Frankiestylee

I thought the boys got paid on Monday morning... so far it looks like I may get away without a bumper wage bill. That's cheered me up a bit... though Forza Juve are currently out classing my boys something fierce

Thuesday seems to be the day, I've fired some players who didn't sell in the market. Costs are back in line for me now..

Reading the match report, my team is just a comedy of errors...

This is depressing and worrying!!

Congrats JohnButler!

JohnButler

Cheers Orizio...was a close enough one really, like there was nothing in it!

Whats the story with the number of injuries when playing WNWIM? Is it a deterent from playing that intensity?

Yes, as I said before the game developers want people to play the bulk of their games with normal intensity. The thinking is that your playing WNWIM, so the manager is extra cautious and takes players off a lot quicker, which is pretty true to real life.

JohnButler

Its funny cause my team seem to play better when playing WNWIM!

Orizio

Results here.

Gelio

Damn it, 1 point. Ah well good game
