    as i said on BR... i wasnted to test my forwards to see if they where improving (also injuries to macnamee didnt help he's my dangerman! 7 tries yesterday!) :(

    forwards still need work - but training forwards for the U20's will help that!:cool:

    all those red arrows!! :(

    Noob question...but does intensity matter for these Thursday games? For some reason I assumed it didn't.

    Intensity is set automatically to normal for Thursdays.

    Trying to figure out how I finally beat you? Maybe you're just getting old, old man.

    Sorry bout that :o Have recently (finally!!) figured out the best tactics for my first team so things are going well over the last few games. All I need though is to lose one or two players to injuries and I'll be back to sq 1 again!

    haha! well high creative is no where near as effective as previously. The changes have really messed with my tactics for team :(

    tested if the changes would have much impact (clearly they are) so now trying combos to see what works best for my team.

    I played Forza Juve on monday and thursday, both of us played same intensity for both matches, one a narrowly won, the other I got dicked on! :eek:

    Yup, I think high creativity now just leads to oodles of forward passes!

    what would you call high ?30%?? our game had no forward passes!

    i used to play with 30%+ creative. still creates lots of linebreaks but little in way of scores. dropped passes, forward passes "handling errors" etc seem to appear out of nowhere :eek:

    so 5 seasons of building a team around these tactics and now my pack is frightfully inadequate!:D

    Played 35 and 40 in my cup matches..obviously was still a stroll but plenty of handling errors...

    No idea if this will paste but

    Didn't paste great but it will do for now. Your not actually too far behind. Unfortunately Div. 3 seems horribly unbalanced with a top 4 and bottom 4 this season. A bout of relegation/promotion should solve it for next year though.

    Oh and I will get the website and a proper update sorted in the very near future (definitely before round 4 games are played)

    How is Div 1 looking? I have left myself with a bit of a mountain to climb :p

    getting back on track now (I hope!)
