Am I too late to join? Planning on getting the game shortly after release date.

I don't know. Whatever about the two Spanish sides, but I think pulling United out is a bit much.

I mean why not Man City, Chelsea or PSG as well? You could make the same case for those. In fact they might even have better balanced squads.

It probably does get a little messy if we're trying to decide if specific teams are too good to be included.

I would say that it's probably best to just limit it to a maximum star rating (4 or 4.5 etc.) and leave it at that.


But, that said, I'm easy really.

Agreed. United are as beatable as those teams and others like Juventus. I think once the five star teams are excluded then that's enough.

Looks like I've recruited a lot of United fans :pac:

Grand, I'll leave it at 4.5 stars regardless and see how it pans out.

Don't want to create a mutiny in here :P

No bother, league probably won't be starting until a week after release and picks will begin next Monday unless there are a lot of people wanting it later.

What's your PSN?

Wait till I don't get them now and I may change my opinion. :pac:

Ah no to be honest I wouldn't exclude any team as I think it can be fun trying to take down a Real Madrid with a weaker side. But I understand why people don't want to play them so happy to go along with it.

I demand a rerun! :P

I preloaded mine this evening on the PSN store, can see the timer on it now. Looks like it'll unlock around 4am Irish time. Won't be staying up for it anyway! Reviews seem positive gameplay wise, disappointing to see ML is rubbish again. See lads on Reddit seem to think its something they'll fix in a patch, no chance of that I don't think. They'd have done that last year if it was that simple.

I'm in college tomorrow evening until 10 so won't get to have a decent session with it until then.

It's due to download tomorrow and playable on Thursday isn't it?

IncognitoMan

Think he's buying from the US store so it would be playable around 4/5 am Wednesday morning our time.

He'll have the advantage so...... Good thing he's second last pick

Ivefoundgod

Yeah sorry should have made that obvious, buying on US store. Its out there tomorrow so will unlock for me around 4 or 5am tomorrow morning but won't get to properly play it until Wednesday.

A less honest man would have hit that "again" button till they were further up the list!
My excuse for doing shít is gone already.

That was honestly the first randomiser. I feel it had some authenticity to it seeing as I'm 10th ha.

Looking forward to the challenge!

The funny thing is, if you came top of the list on the first try you'd probably have to do it again cos no one would believe it. About 5th is the best you could realistically do before people (me) started asking questions!

Ha i had thought about that happening alright. It'd be the United debacle from yesterday all over again :pac:

By the way, I hope United are 5 stars

So, what's the next step, Colemania?

Do we PM you our picks?

Not just yet. Wait until Monday when almost everybody will have the game and we'll begin picks then. If you're in the top 6 picks, then maybe PM me your top 3 in preference order after you've had a look at the teams this weekend.

The PM thing is just a suggestion to get things moving along quicker so we're not waiting on someone to reply with their pick

It's actually not unusual for the organiser to win the draw! So Father Ted Crilly says anyway!

So lads, should we leave it as a 16 team league or separate it into two 8 team leagues?

All suggestions welcome

2 x 8 team leagues with top 4 in each league qualifying for quarter-finals??

Just a thought
