Ok so the PS3 league is better but lets try an Xbox one

Right TEF 360 league, anybody up for it? Same rubbish they are doing, everybody who wants to join post here and pick a 4.5 or 5 star team you want to be, i'll then take those teams and randomly hand them out. I'll then set up the Xbox Live league and invite you all in, 2 legs against everybody like the PS3 version!

Who fancys it?
I'll cap it there at 10 and set it up in a second to invite everybody and sort the teams. Due to Football on saturday and work blah blah we'll give a week to play the games, so all games to be played by next Wednesday (Or thursday if i don't set it up in time!)


What a beautiful goal...!

I haven't got an Xbox or Fifa 11, but can I join in?

I'd be up for a bit of this. I'll add Spain to the teams list.

I'll be in, you already have me on live  :nod:

Do we sort the games out on here?

If you like, organise them here or over XBL, you have to play everybody twice which makes that 18 games? (Too early to do maths..) So 18 games in a week shouldn't be too bad!

(can only set a league to play each other twice so not sure what you wanna do? twice?)

Larman

how does it sort itself out with playing eachother etc? is it a case of whoever is online will play if they haven't before?

i've a spreadsheet here which has sorted all mine out.

Cheers larman that's ace, twice is fine then when the league is finished we can have a playoff

Oh and crispy has got to be Oxford :)

Sounds good ferret

Im up for Oxford. Want your game now Ferret? Well, after the saints v united game..

When you join the league, you will see every team in the league, select and invite to game, you can only do this twice per team..

Once a few games and results have been added to this post, maybe you can keep a record and put the league table in spreadsheet format in here for everyone to see???

Larman

Right I'm in! Do we have to wait for everyone before we can start the league?

Nope, ill be on in 5, add me.. STFC x Crispy x

i'll be adding it to the PS3 league. was going to do an online one but wasn't sure how it worked.

might be worth doing?????

Having trouble connecting vs Reaper, this kept happening to me and my mate once and both our firewall statuses on Fifa were "restrictive", I emailed support and they replied with this that fixed it - though mine is restrictive again now for some reason:

Dear Sir/Madam,

Thank you for contacting EA Technical Support.

I apologize for any inconvenience. I understand you are having trouble playing your game online.

We will need some more information to help locate the exact issue:-

Prior to this issue beginning, were you able to play online? And was there any change to your online setup? That may shed some light on what is causing this difficulty.

I would also request you to refresh your online connectivity through Xbox Live. The first thing you can do is to powercycle your modem. This is done by unplugging your modem from the power supply and letting it rest for about 10 to 15 minutes and then plugging it back in. During this time, you can reset your Xbox 360's time and date setting to the 11/15/2005 by following the below given steps.
Press the Xbox Guide button on the controller to enter the Dashboard.
Sign out of Xbox Live by pressing the X button.
Select the System blade.
Select Console Settings and press the A button.
Select Clock and press the A button.
Change the date to 11/15/2005 and press the A button to accept.
Combined, these steps may be able to refresh your console's connection to Xbox Live and resolve most, if not all of your connectivity issues.

Another thing you can do is to check the ports for Xbox Live. Connection issues typically are caused by one or more ports being blocked by a firewall, router, or even your Internet Service Provider to help maintain security. These ports are the doorways used to send and receive information between your computer and the server. First, try to bypass your router (if you have one) and see if the game can connect. If it does, then it means that the router itself may be blocking the needed ports for the game. If you are still unable to connect, the ports may be blocked directly by your Internet Service Provider.

The ports for Xbox Live are below. You may have to configure your router/firewall to have the game's ports open in order to connect to the servers properly. If you do not know how to configure your router, you can contact the manufacturer of the router for proper instructions. If you need to contact your ISP regarding these ports, make sure that they are open for both incoming and outgoing directions:

UDP Ports: 88 & 3074
TCP Port: 3074

I hope that this will resolve the situation. If you have any other questions, then by all means feel free to let us know. You can also refer to our extensive Self Help Knowledgebase at http://support.ea.com for common technical questions.
/>
I hope this helps.

Best Regards,

/>Rodulf
EA Support Centre, UK and Ireland

Meh, I couldn't remember how to open the ports. Have done the first part though...still 'restrictive' :(

My Xbox connects to the router which is a Netgear. The Norton software was saying the Xbox was on restrictive mode so have changed that too full trust. Will try again tomorrow as off to bed!

On for awhile this morning, ballmouth later!

2 Games

Argentina 0 Chelsea 3
Chelsea 0 Argentina 1

Hehe- CDM London... Benyon will come good :)

Anyone want a game now?

Will hang around for a bit

Got to be happy picking up a win and a defeat against arsenal! Win and a draw would have been nice :)

2 good games there Ferret, you play very well as Swindon although the first goal you scored against me in the first game was by a C. Austin!

I'll be on tonight hopefully for a few games.

However i've tried joining a couple of peoples games in our league but it wont let me join them.

Vice versa when i create a game and they try and join me, they seem to have no luck !

Yeah only played a couple of games so far so need to get on this. Should be about this evening too.

Pox are dreadful!

Make sure the results are posted in here lads
 

Arsenal 0 Swindon 2 (i think?)
Swindon 0 Arsenal 2

Whenever i'm online and not playing clubs!

Chelsea 0-0 Arsenal

Arsenal 1-2 Chelsea

Good games swindontillidie

Chelsea dont suit my style of play watsoever

Good games indeed Stef, hate playing against Chelsea as when your on the break you tend to have 18 men on your team going forward!

Anyone want a game?

Its gone a bit quiet on here recently

I'll be on for a bit now if anyone wants to play our game...

(well in about 10-15 minutes after I eat)

Swindon 0-1 Chelsea
Chelsea 3-0 Swindon

Good games considering the advantage i had

Any chance I could jump in ?

I will be Bristol Rovers and knob you all :P :D

GT: EpIc x TRikZz , invite me if i'm aloud please :D.

Doesn't bother me... ^

Good games Ferret!

2-1 to me first game
2-1 to you second! :)

I got fucked by A tackles... First game gave away and A penalty, second game gave away a A red card..
goal in the second game was a screamer mind? ;)

Some good games! I hit the bar 3 times and had a pen! You got me on the break! 2nd game you had more chances!

Grow up.

http://www.ea.com/uk/football/videos/ugc/65532381

Miserable cunt!

Someone's a happy chappy.

Did Swindon buy Mike Green off Rovers or something :L.

Not played either yet! But which game is better Pro Evo or Fifa?  Will be arriving back home after the Ashes and will be looking at getting one of them! 

This should be renamed the exclamation mark thread !!!!

Its a bad habbit I have online!!!!

Not sure who I have left to play on this?

Will update the league later and add some outstanding fixtures in (you have to play me)

Ok nice one

Anyone fancy a game tonight?

IS this still on the go?  I'm set up with Live now and keen to join a league....

What's everyone's online rating?  I think I'm around the 2k mark which I'm bloody proud of, but have had to work to get there.  If everyone else is much higher I'm scared of being the whipping boy....

On level 25, haven't touched it for a while though, been focussing on UT.

I've still got a 11% record online. I've still only played 2 games....
