    Must start working on mine...hope to have it finalised around about Round 15:D

    Ah it's well known that I'm a fool who has a 1 and 2 XV. Most would advise against it.

    I can barely afford 22...not to mind 30! Me and my big spending ways

    I need a reasonable cup run to stay afloat

    Those tricksy bots!


    Ugh, was up against Batai Bulldogs and he scored a nice bot-esque win over me. Beast of a team it seems. Certainly doesn't look like I'm going to have any luck over my fellow promotees.

    Gave Ormond an awful spanking at the weekend so got some revenge for last season. Nothing but auto promotion to div 1 this season will be a failure.

    And ouch again.

    Got a young Div IV side. It's like the one season I'm prepared to have no cup run is the very season the luck monkeys shine on me.

    I got drawn with a pretty decent team by my standards, the type of game that would come down to who's willing to use up the most energy!

    To be honest, I'd love to get someone like Ruffians away ... obviously for the pay day, but if you're going to go out, might as well do it in style! :D

    That's it, plus sometimes they rate you so lowly that they throw out a silly team and you can steal the win. Think my 2nd most successful cup run was from Div IV, just because some Div 2 team threw on some salary savers.

    Based on pre-match stars, looks like I may be heading for round 5 and the last 64 of the cup for the first time! Would be delighted if I do, and pray for a good draw!

    Well I played "normal" in cup game and hammered him 60 odd nil, so should have gone WNWIM, and also drew a division 1 team in next round, so not the best day ever! :D

    At least should be a good pay day, but that's the end of the cup for another season. Would have loved to have gone a round or two further, but maybe next year.

    Won on WNWIM... by 105 or so to 0. Used classic greyhound tactics. Maybe there's more to be said for 25/25/25/25 than I thought :pac:

    Think the cup draw probably helped more than Gh tactics. :P I see you have Stade Mudflingers next up, very winnable game that!

    Managed to sneak past Mauling Bear on normal, and my reward for that is a 6 week old Div IV team....

    jammy bugger!!

    Won last night on WNWIM... fine score of 0-124! in a paltry 5k seater - basically zero income and not a dent in my losses for an away week! :(

    next up I have a division 4 team I'm away to again with their highest CSR player at 17k!!:D guaranteed to be another small income week:(
