20 teams now..enough for 2 leagues..quality! More would be fine.

it might be me being really bored but


i really wish there was a game a day

 8)

Bump :D

How do you guys get Junior players? I asked to get myself a player with my name in the game and my agent came back offering me as a defender at 11 million.

I've put to join if there's still room. Forgot to put in the message who I am! (sorry) but I'm Bedford1.

Let me know.

you're in mate, need as many teams as possible. As I said, season starts on the 20th so everyones got till then. at the moment we've got a minimum two leagues.

Cheers Tails, just got the e-mail back.

Nice one.

I won my first friendly 2-0 :D

yay i beat camberwell 4-2 :D

I can only see six teams? I hope I start in the top division?

Can the match time be changed? it's at 5pm? I think it will be better if it's 7pm?
Anyone else?

Suits me. I won my first game 3-1.  :mrgreen:

I beat Royston Vasey FC 2-1! Unlucky spuddy son! :king:

my dudes were still high after sampling your bloody local produce.

 :evil:

you scored 3 times in the last 5(+stoppages)...damn africans and their lackluster defending

3-1 to the Yobbos against the Detrawotsits

skill!

Are these all friendlies? I haven't bothered looking at it since i signed up. What have i missed?

I'm in. Highinohio FC, bunch of clowns me thinks.

Cunt!  :evil:

The ref was against my side from the start.




Only joking, fair play.

well i'm maintainging my unbeaten run, so up yours!

ok so i haven't even played a game yet, but im still unbeaten

:soapy tit wank:

Who is Swindon? I play them on friday.

that is nozza!

shall we just start the league on friday? it means you won't be able to play your friendlies but I can't be arsed to wait any longer.

defo

fo shizzle

yeah defo. friendlies are gay.

I feel I need more time for my team to gel as a unit. I request that the league starts after Christmas mainly as i'll be unable to get online!

Finally managed to get a junior player! Young Rory Fallon signs in time for the league starting!

What sorta time/days?? I think I'll make matches at 7PM..what two days of the week though?

Any day is fine for me.

we starting friday then?

Not over the weekend is probably better

I'm still confused. Can we just not pick the team in advance and it'll play. We don't have to be logged on do we? If we do I'm stuffed, because most fridays and saturdays I'm out.

I'm in cunters, but do I need to be on at a certain time?  I usually go out on a Friday to get fucked?

You dont have to be there,pick your team before hand.At least thats what I did in the friendly.

You can pick your team before hand, tactics and everything.

I might do Thursdays and Mondays. That OK with everyone?

Is it too late to join now?

1-1 away to Yeovils Yobbos for me today. Not bad as I had a player sent off for nothing. Fucking useless ref, yeovil was cheating, it was a dive.

I thought it was getting played at 7.00?

i also thought it was 19.00 ko, but have just found out i've lost 4-1 to whits!  :oops:

The site says its GMT +1hr, so 19.30. How do you change it?

So hang about, does that mean that there's a bug in the software and it has already created the game before kick off? Or what?

Woo hoo I'm top of the league  8)

 8) i thought it was a 19.00 kick off to!

Xeo's Tigers is me, im nozza's m8 from school. i visit this site cos i read the funny non swindon related articles :D

I won 2-0 but had my best striker sent off! Rory Fallon comes in for his first start of the season in my next game!!

I have been chosen as the manager for the league 1 xpert eleven \o/.

I think this means all my players are shit but I have managed to get the best out of them.

typical i play the league co-ordinator. of course he's going to win

it's a fix i tell thee

Grrr, got owned 2-0 :( how unfair. Yeah what alex said was true. how did u get "rory fallon" as a player edinburgh did it randomly make it up or did you? HOW? :) i wanna make theo walcott.

In a dramatic turnaround, ex Manchester United player Roy Keane has snubbed Celtic and joined Xpert Premiership side Jackomanaco FC for the remainder of the season as a Player/Coach. His contract worth an estimated £30,000 a week will not only see him play for the Premiership outfit, but help with the coaching of the young players at the club.

New Signing Keane with Manager Dan Jackson showing off the new Jackomanaco Away Kit

:soapy tit wank:

 :Ride On Fatbury's Lovestick:

That is quality! Dan i'm guessing you signed up for the VIP?

Dan that is class!

How much is the VIP stuff and what do you get for the money?

There is a bit where you can ask for your name to be put in the game. Originally I asked for myself to be in it, but they offered me a centre back for over 11 million!! Rory Fallon was next but was a youth player so was free(ish) to sign.

Nope im not a VIP! I only have a switch card! Just got bored! :soapy tit wank:

i still haven't been accepted i think?  :(

Is it just me or is this xpert eleven fookin confusing?
Im startin off with a demo team to try it out and then if theres still room, could i join your league before the 20th?

I only just signed up. Am I too late?

i haven't been accepted yet, well i haven't had an email or anything.

so maybe we are rossi.

i've taught them well  :x  :twisted:

sie pie is giving it some at the top of the prem! I got a good result against sonic today, who clappsed in typical swindon fashion! 2 nil down and win 3-2! stick to scoreboards my friend! :wink:

Woooooooo!

I beat Heart Of STFC 2-1  :beers:

2-0 win over newbury, cant complain. BRING IT ON :D

i didn't realise i was playing. scoreboard's aren't really my area of expertise either.

who the fucks Camberwell?

bennett probably. or danny from withnail & i.

Luck!! 8)

Yeah you were lucky to only go down 2-1 seeing as i was 2 up. :beers:

yea bennett's Camberwell, thats where he currently resides. rumour has it he stabbed some Yardie guy and is now the King there.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA were we playing today?!

yeovil

57-43% possesion split in favour of me

9 chances to me, 3 to you.

you have a player called drysdale....surely that's enough to warrant you losing and not being mean?


(also notice how tails is already leading division 1, shocking...it's going to be another small club made good isn't it tails? you bastard)

:D

meh shut up!

Facking ace. Switch the computer on to find I'm top. I bet it all goes wrong wigan stylee next time.

Back of the net! Not bottom any more. An excellent display scoring three goals in 9 second half minutes against Deformed Penguins (flammable Ben). Chester Jennings putting a man of the match display bagging a brace.  :beers:

My game was going just fine till i got a man sent off. Never set your players to "Bruise"  :shock:

I'm 2nd behind Si Pi without making any effort with my team whatsoever.

And I see the next match is 1st v 2nd, early table topper coming up.

Are you Norfolk Enchance Bed Red?

I am Village.

Drew 2-2 with your boys, with 10 men. I'm oddly proud 8)

I wondered who was the manager. You seemed to get quite a few bookings as well if I remember.

Top of the league  :soapy tit wank:

Thats what playing dirty tactics will do for ya 8)

what a suprise

FIX!

Fix my arse, I've just played it before.

No thanks. Sussex might....

*doesn't rise to a cheap shot*

That'll be a first! :D

*Sussex goes to bed not looking forward to reading the abuse coming my way in the the morning. You tosser!*

 :D

"i've just played it before"

i demand a handicapping system where you get punished for having previous experience. it's not fair  :(

Top of the Premiership for Xmas for Norfork Enchance after a 2-1 win over Pies Does Matter, a 89th minute winner.

Norfolk Enchance  3  2  1  0  6 - 4  2  7  
Jackomanaco FC  3  2  0  1  8 - 4  4  6  
Pies Does Matter  3  2  0  1  7 - 3  4  6

His Infernal Majesty  2  0  0  2  0 - 4  -4  0  
 
May not last, but nice to be top at Xmas time!

I lost 1-0 to the Whitmeister, and they missed a penalty. The boys will be in for training first thing tomorrow morning.  :evil:

Another win - still top with 100% record  :D

Not gonna say a word.  :roll:

Get in! Picked up my first win against the Mexicans with a commanding display and won the manager of the round award for the second game in 3.

if i hadn't have been cheated against by mr cheaty tails then i would be sitting pretty, or atleast on level points with him. two successive games with 4 goal hauls :soapy tit wank:

My first win against Sonic's team of losers \ :D /

You cheated!  :x  You manage a luckly 1-0.  :x  :x

Will I ever get a point? I am rooted to the bottom

ive just signed up  :D

How do I cheat? Im just better than everyone else.

better through experience that wasn't fully explained at the outset. therefore cheating. therefore i'm actually top as i think you should dock yourself 6 points. i demand  a petition for this!

erm...Fuck you :p

Agreed, we wasnt told by the league admin that he had previous experience playing the game.

I demand the Xperteleven F.A. take action.

fuck me i won, who did i beat?

you lost 1-0 Sonic to Village's team.

unless i'm misreading it, i won 1 and lsot 2?

 :Ride On Fatbury's Lovestick:

hahahahahahaha good work sir!

You have, I thought you were talking about todays game which you lost.

You won your first game 2-1 against Bob loves the minge though.

What an ace name!  :Ride On Fatbury's Lovestick:

cue the comedy music....and another spectacular episode of slapstick reading and confusion ends

Wahooo I fucking won, have it. that's W1 D1 L1. I can live with that

Proof that there was evidence I'd played it before :p

lies

I was only joking mate. Don't take it to seriously.

:fishing: = Tails.

4-0 WIN FOR ME!!! GET IN!

Tails is deffo a cheat.

Probably a gay as well.

You wish  :soapy tit wank:

spuddy whats the score, spuddy spuddy whats the score?  8)

who the hell waterlogged my pitch :evil:

can you hear walrus sing? no no!

Meh!

Rumbeled.....

Thats alright cos my fans decided to vandalise your team bus.  :beers:

fecking hoolies  :x

Inter Beer prop up the leagues.... :x  :oops:

The league is upside down, upside down... :\/

That was me, thought it would be a laugh!

I see you won 4-0 though so didn't seem to affect your team.

Get in! Kept up my 100% home record with a 2-0 win over Camberwell! :D

I thought the game kick off at 7? It finished at 6?

WTF? It stuffed my team set up.

A 2-2 draw with 2nd place Jackomanaco FC 8)

i got an away draw at tails place, i will stuff him at mine, i have sussed this game, havent i yeovil 3-1! can you hear the yobboes sing no no!

Im pleased with my draw with village! Top of the table clash with Si Pie next! Bring it on! :D

grrr my complacency means i'm on a shit streak. also i'm sure tails has made it so i can't win

is there nothing that lad won't do to ensure he wins?!

I think everyone should start playing dirty tricks on tails to commpensate for the blatant cheating. :twisted:

ben that's one of the best things you've ever typed...apart from when we cyberred  :wink:

Why would I make it so you can't win?

You lot like using me as a scapegoat dont ya

er to let yourself win everygame?

It's not possible to do that....

I got battered 4-0 by Si Pie! I need to make some changes!!! :evil:

who are the detrimentalists! whooped tails 5-1! Can you hear the tails sing....no,no!!

top of the league, i'm avin a laugh..

still gonna accuse me of cheating now?  :D

I got beat 1-0.

I jumped for joy at the mentalists result though.

benwah I think.

OI OI! Get In!

Me, Gazza and the boys are having a celbratory pissup tonight. 5-1 against the league leaders. Have some of that. :beers:  :D  :D  :cheers:

nice one ben im closing ino tails after a 3-1 away victory!

:x Ahh, I drew with the crap team. Bob Loves The Minge 1-1

4-0 win over Broken Scoreboard FC, up to 2nd in the Premiership  :D

whos Wessex Reich??

Just click the team name and then you can see the username.

 :nod: fucking cheating cunt.

Bloody hell I wondered why Bob and Walrus were doing so badly - they haven't even turned up! Looks like a good set of games ahead for you Bedford

HAHAHA 4-0 TO ME!!!!! :D

tails you know you've got to have a slip up cos otherwise it'd be obvious you're cheating.

i think losing so spectacularly is pathetic aswell. i think you are pathetic and i am still waiting for you to dock points off yourself

Whilst Tails has clearly been cheating on this occassion he just couldn't cope with playing my outstanding side at the fortress which is The Cathays Cauldron. (Cathays is pronounced cat-ays by the way )

My home record so far is:

Detrimentalists     1        jaguares de chiapas 0
Detrimentalists     2      Camberwell AFC   0
Detrimentalists     5     Tails United     1

100% against 3 of the top 4 sides in the league no less. :advercool: Count yourself lucky to get away with a 2-0 defeat.

 :Ride On Fatbury's Lovestick:

bless you

yeah its some bloke called john!

I noticed that before, probably J1mmy.

who's got a league going?

there are 3 different leagues!

anyone will do!

well?

well?

oops

Think you'll have to wait for the new season mate, not sure though :|

Fingers crossed Si Pi.

You're going well too, only let in 3 goals so far!

Beaten 3-1 by Si Pie's runaway team :(

Tails snatched a victory in the return leg but only because my inspirational captain was injured. Lucky there. This away form needs improving to match the perfect home record.

Norfolk Enchance have a game in hand so it's tighter than it looks. Hopefully it will be set up for a close finish between 2 or more teams on the final fixture  :)

Another Draw  :x . Transfer a few I think.

ooops i forgot to do my team for this one...ah well still won.

After a slow start I have now won 3 on the trot!  :D

yeah i won another one. apart from my complacency for a few games i think i'm safely going to get promoted. until tails starts to pull the strings and make everyone else drop points

im just better than all of you  8) apart from ben, got lucky to beat him and he hammered me.

I got beat 1-0  :evil:

got beat 2-1, my fucking keeper got injured. cunts. my team are shit, i dont fucknig care anymore! :P

Same as, tonight was the first time i checked that site for a fair few days.

I just go on there everytime I'm on the internet tbh. Doesn't take long to check mailbox etc.

3-0 win, still second behind Si Pi by 5 points with a game in hand.

Ok, why can't i buy any players at the moment? :?

Im having that same problem, i reckon Tails has done it on purpose so he can maintain his 1st place position, cheating fucker.

jaguares on a roll, tails im going to get you.

who has scored the most goals in our division? who has the best defensive record? on your tail tails.

now now spuddy apparently such jovial banter is not allowed anymore, tails has gone in to play with his action man inside so us nasty boys can't pick on him  :twisted:

you should be able to..just go into the market and place a bid, it takes a few days then it tells you if it was successful or not.

When i click on a player, it won't allow me to bid :?

They're having some server issues due to a DOS attack. Could be that...

hahahaha i just stuffed yeovil away 4-1. tails is up at mine next :twisted:

I got a brilliant 2-1 away victory against BlinkPip 8)

My star player injured again for fucks sake was 1-1 missed a penalty then camberwell got a last minute winner though i had far more possesion and 8 chances to their 3. I stuffed them at home though. :twisted:

At least you won the pools ben wah

Ive lost interest now.

 :D

Anyone want to take charge I resign?

If it takes effort give up thats my motto :D

Nice 3-0 win against Bob loves the Minge!

2 points behind Si Pi now.

STFC Village, You buggar. I forgot!  :P

i cant be fucked with this, my team are shite, only players i can afford are just as good as the ones i've got, but 7 times the price i get for mine, rediculous.

I hate bad losers :D

:soapy tit wank:  you cunt :P

leggett you're a fucking fanny. don't you think that everyone has similarly rated teams?

it's spelt ridiculous

and you can't afford players cos you couldn't work out how to answer the questions in the first fucking sponsorship thing.

in otherwords...stop moaning about it and just invade another team like your forefathers did
 :mrgreen:

:-))(  cunt :P

I think more people shouls play the pools and build the pot up a bit  :nod:

6-0!

 :beers:  :D

If only I could sort out the away form.

Geoffrey Young scored 5 goals!

Everyone got 3 right on the pools as well  :soapy tit wank:

Norfolk Enchance now top of the league after their 6-0 victory.

YYYYYYYYYYEEEEEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS

JUST WHOPPED TAILS 4-1 JUST ONE POINT BEHIND HIM NOW.

Another victory over Blinky, 2-0! Up to 3rd 8)

Me too. Couldn't really give a toss anymore, I very rarely sort out my team!

I forgot. Again.

For some reason I keep thinking it kicks off at 7.

i won, nice.

Are you swindon nozza!? A good 2-1 win for me!  :D

You beat me. Enjoy it! :mrgreen:

Nice 6-0 win over Bob loves the minge, just played them twice in 4 days.

Back to the top of the Premiership, although Si Pi's team has a game in hand on me.

I still can't make bids on players. Can someone confirm i'm following this ok....

-Once loggon on, click on "Transfers"
-Specify criteria, such as Midfielder, skill level 6, freekick specialist etc
-Left click on the player you want to sign.....

When I get to this point, it won't let me click on "Place Bid", despite me having sufficient funds :? I can't even promote youth team players now :x

A little help?

Do you have the maximum of 20 players, if so you need to sack or sell one of them.

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

*Penny drops*

Thanks Ben

2-1 win over Suffolk Enchance with a late winner.

Still 1 point clear of Si Pi at the top of the premiership, he has a game in hand, should be a close finish.

I won.

still lost interest though

lost 1-0 *acts surprised*

I lost again  :oops:

I won. 1-0. My biggest win.

I think me and Mex are up already...

 :Ride On Fatbury's Lovestick:

2-2 away to Jaguares de Chiapas for me today. Close game between two great sides. Not too bad but unfortunately both of my promotion rivals won so I'm down from 3rd to 5th. Not over yet though.

3-0 win over Lee Dixon  :P

I missed a pen and lost 1-0. I haven't changed my team or tactics since 1987 mind you.

blood hell, im shit!!!!

well done si  :D

Promotion confirmed  :D

shocking

2-1 win at Broken Scoreboard keeps me top 1 point ahead of Si Pi.

The title looks between us two, crunch match coming up soon.

More importantly, I can't be relegated now.  8)

PS Well done Bob loves the minge for winning your first game, says you've haven't turned up to the sight yet. Blinkpip, how did you lose that one?

if i had remembered i would have trounced you, my fuckin right back took a fuckin penalty! and missed, been busy and forgot to set team. you were lucky.

Nah you were lucky, one of my players got injured again and my best two players were on poor form as they were only just back from injuries. I beat you at home anyway.

I have the best team in the league but the team often get travel sickness when they travel away.

woop, im off the bottom!

bollocks
since the third game i have this sussed and until sunday had won 7 on the trot, i will give you a friendly at your place post season.

and your player got injured in the 91st minute you welsh cunt.

We both had 7 chances, a draw was a fair result but doesn't do much good for me.

I accept the challenge of a friendly but a win in a draw in the league is what really counts.

Detrimentalists 8 (EIGHT) - JfK Rifle Club 0 8)  :beers:

7-0 at half time too. :mrgreen:

I beat Warlus 3-1. I think he's good enough down.

just beat rockin robins 2-0 at their place.

Yes nice one, that's given me a chance of promotion again! My home record is the best of anyone in any league though.

4-0 against Yeovil to secure 3rd place and 7 wins out of 7 at home.

 :cheers:  :dance:

Yes, I beat Broken Scoreboard FC 2-0. I think that win has kept me up and sent them down.  :P

I won the pools  8)

And also Xpert Eleven manager of the day.  8)

OK Seasons over folks - I take it everyone wants to do another one?

yeah ive joined the thing.....

What are you talking about? Still a few games left :?

Nah im not doing another one cos im shit at it.

I even got beat by leggett. :shock:

Oh yeah premiership season isn't over is it..bollocks..I'll wait then

Wahoo.. I came second in the bottom division. I presume that means I get promoted.

I love this game now. Just got in to it.

I will win the premiership next season.

A comfortable 3-0 victory over the struggling Bob Loves Minge. Should keep me in the Premiership for next season \o/

A 1-0 win in the last minute keeps me two points behind Si Pi's team with 4 games to go in the Premiership, top of the table match coming up this Sunday.

Si Pi must be favourite though, I just keep fluking wins/last minute goals etc.  8)

As well as my team in the townend league I took over a team in the pro league a couple of weeks ago called No Mancs allowed.

When I became manager they were 4th in the league but today after four wins out of 4 under my management they won the league! (division 5:10) :beers:

I think this means they get promoted to the 4th division.

"All the players in the club want to continue to play for Spain In The Arse next season" 8)

The Premiership is going to be bloody good next season. Lots of good teams in there.

I guess I've missed the boat, but I've applied anyway - can I join mid season or will I be in next season if Tails lets me?!?

Well this season is over for most teams anyway so not this season.

i should think so bedford! he's obsessed with that game!

Fuck off queer

Harriet Smith has passed away and in her will she left 155 000 econ to your club, Pies Does Matter.

How fucking ace is that?

when does the new season start?

Detrimentalists 4 - Jaguares de Chiapas 1 in the friendly. :D

So my home record overall is:

Detrimentalists 1 - Jaguares De Chiapas 0
Detrimentalists 2 - Camberwell 0
Detrimentalists 5 - Tails United 1
Detrimentalists 6 - Highinohio 0
Detrimentalists 2 - Rockin Robins 1
Detrimentalists 8 - JFK Rifle Club 0
Detrimentalists 4 - Yeovils Yobbos 0
Detrimentalists 4 - Jaguares de Chiapas 1

Not bad! :advercool:

 :Ride On Fatbury's Lovestick:

Norfolk Enchance you luckly bastard! Only just won!  :x

A 4-0 victory over Walrus' struggling side gives me enough points to guarantee Premiership football for next season 8)

It looks like the bottom 3 have had it.

I Know  8)

Just for once, Si Pi's match was close as well, he won 2-1 after being 1-0 down at half time.

Still two points in it with 3 games to go, and I think I play Si Pi next so championship decider almost.

Don't worry. Ill will beat Si pie rejects.  :x

Why do you support me pipster?

I have a masterplan. :roll:

I don't know, I was seeing what it does. Does it benifit you in any way?

:shrug:

oh tits i forgot again

Shite, I forgot I had a game tonight.

Still, drew 1-1 with Swindon...

Looks like a point from my 2 remaining games will secure the title.  8)

maybe you should get out more  :wink:

Maybe you should stop denying you're a cock  :-))(

How many times have you said that?! JUST GO ON NOW BLINK, IT TAKES ABOUT 30 SECONDS TO ORGANISE YOUR TEAM!

I thrashed Sonics losers 4-1 to move into 3rd \o/

Well done Si Pi. I thought I would try a change of tactics, not a good idea as you were 3-0 up in about 30 mins!

Never mind, 2nd place is safe for me.

I keep forgeting. They should send out email reminders.  :)  :P  :x

JUST GO ON NOW BLINK, IT TAKES ABOUT 30 SECONDS TO ORGANISE YOUR TEAM!

Haven't won it yet though have I? Both my games are away as well, which doesn't help.

A bit late now. it's at six. Cheers for the late reminder.

Maybe it's a 7 today?

Anyway I didn't have a league game. I am playing BenWah in a friendly.

I lost. :jaw1: Shocking performance.

That's strange, says 19:00 kick-off :?

Lost 2-0 to Norfolk Enchance, as expected.

Congratumulations to Simon, Premier League Champion :king:

I played my weakest team also. I just wanted my reserves to get a run out. I just got the hang on the tatics and stuff now.

I am gunning for honours next season.

I'm pretty confident I'll finish above you next season. Just a rare off day as I was tightening the wings. My players are a bit out of match practice.

Cheers ears. The website is one hour ahead btw.

That's where I got you. I knew you would tighten the wings, so I change my tactics.
If I was home, it would've been more.  :soapy tit wank:

Welldone. But expect a more serious challage next season. I just recently got in it.

Congrats as well from me Si Pi, deserved Champion.

I'm quite pleased to be in 2nd place 11 points clear of 3rd though, beat my aim at the start of the season to avoid relegation.

I feel the Premier Division will be a lot harder next season though.

Lost my final game to Tails team 2-0, finished 5th.

I'll need to improve for next season to stay in the league i think

I beat the Champions Easy!

Pie man, enjoy it while it lasts.  :soapy tit wank:

finished off with a 0-0 against Jackomanaco FC to finish 2nd, very happy with that.

Pies Does Matter  16  14  0  2  47 - 8  39  42

Walrus, Sonic Youth and Swindonbob relegated.

As i said before, I think it will be a harder league next year.

I think ill be in the top 3 next season. I got a few excellent signings lately and my defence is now a rock.

I played 4-3-3 to see what would happen as I knew I'd won the league anyway  :roll:

Anyway, I will let you have that. You did have better stats etc, but I saw little point in not experimenting.

Oi Talis. Start the next season!!!

yeah get on with it tails! i will actually be in it then  :D

Just had the Change Report. When's the new season starting then?

Ah sorry fellas ill get onto it now.

So new season starts on Sunday then. This season will be a lot better than last I reckon. Much tighter league this time.

Cheers Tails 8)

Got battered 4-1 by Mex's Jaguares! 0-0 at half time and 1-1 after an hour :(

Got spanked at home 3-0 by harriers. 1 down at half time, 50-50 possesion and 4 chances each...  :(

i won 3-0. blackwell lover won  :beers:  EASY! EASY! EASY!

Excellent 2-0 away win for me against Nozzza. Great start.

I was beaten by cheating Talis 2-1. :x

EA...sy Ea...sy  :beers: Your team injured two of my players though LOB  :evil:

SPUDDY, your next

4-0 away win at Broken Scoreboard FC and top of the Premiership after one game!

forgot to do my team aswell.

easeh!

drew 1-1 with FC boxer shorts at their place. not bad...

I went and scouted at the Broken Scoreboad match  on my day off 8)

Not much point. I don't think somic is even choosing his team/tatics.

I was scouting to see what the pies were like though  :-))(

I'd give them an 8/10 - sonic has clearly devoted more time to pie management rather than football management

your in my league then leggett. i started off with a 2-2 draw against hope and prey united away. i hope for a better result on sunday aganst bolton reds

Yeovil, I take it you take this as seriously as me? No subs and 1 of your players injured after 3 minutes! I went on to win 5-0. May take this seriously as I am now top of the league!!

Got "Bob loves the Minge" at home today, couldn't have asked for an easier start, thanks Tails.

Another good win for me. All the promoted teams have 100% records, shows league one was the toughest league last time. Also got manager of the week in the xpert eleven.

Nice 3-0 win for me over "Bob loves the Minge", 6 points out of 6 and top of the Premier League.

It won't last as there's better teams this time round but there's also some crap teams who you're guaranteed points off so I won't be relegated either.

i won 2-0  8)

Lost again! I'm going down quicker than Ashley Cole on a gay man :o

 :mrgreen:  :shock:  :?

 :o

2 wins out of 2. without tails fucking the league up by cheating constantly it might be fair this time

ive got 4 points from 2 games so far  :D

Very disappointing 1-1 draw for me today against Norfolk Enchance. got an injury to one of my best players but it's not good enough.

i won 3-0 v tigers? i dunno who they are?  8)

I won and I forgot all about it.. :P

ive got 7 points from 3 away games so far! a good start! im up against spuddy's team at home next so i hope to make it 10 points  :D

Oi, Cheeky Bugger. My team ain't that bad, and I finished 2nd last time round.

I was quite happy with a point, still top on goal difference. Dissapointed though that after taking the lead with 4 mins to go I couldn't hold on to the lead.

Up until today I'd won every single home game in the league though. My team doesn't like drawing.

Fair enough. You'll find team's like Si Pi's hard to get points off at home too though. I think he'll be the team to beat again this season.

I think my team at full strength would beat anyone in any league. Unfortunately I'm far from full strength at the moment with two of my best players out but I'm working on it.

One of my midfielders decided to go on holiday without telling me the cunt  :evil:

That explains why you let two goals in then, I thought that was strange for your team.

Didn't know players could go on holiday without telling you!

I'm preparing my side for relegation

Made it 3 from 3 today  :D

The Premiership is a bit more interesting this season I think.

Terrible result this week, lost 2-1 away to pies does matter. I'm sure I would have won if my captain wasn't injured though, took the lead but lost to a very dubious penalty.

Apperently I haven't played today.

I bossed your team if you look at the stats. 62% posession and more chances than you.

I would have slaughtered you with a full strength side, I couldn't even put out a full bench of substitutes. Count yourself lucky.

 :mrgreen:

In all honesty I thought it would be a draw. You cannot expect to beat the champions at home, although I'm sure it can be done. I wouldn't expect to win at your place either, although again it could be done I'm sure.

Apparently one of my players has got addicted to cookery programmes and cooking so has gotten fat and lost some form  :Ride On Fatbury's Lovestick:  I'm loving the dodgy scenarios that this game throws up.

I beat nozza Swindon 4-0. Easy!  :clap:

I should have some slightly easier games coming up but there are always shocks. Pies does matter against jaguares de chiapas will be an interesting game.

:D  ben you are so full of shit

 :grin:

Surely you should have learnt your lesson from the 4-1 defeat in the friendly. :nono: :P

4-0 thrashing of spuddys team today  :D 10 points from 4 watch out Calne Town!

joint top in div 1 and only one goal conceeded. very happy with that

Ive still got a team!?  :mrgreen:  i havent even logged in for about 5 weeks.

won 3-1, after being 1-0 down at half-time. lovely :D

mighty lilywhites!  :beers:

It will be interesting to see how many folk in the leagues still sort out their teams and tactics etc. I log in now and then but can't be arsed changing my team unless I have injuries or people fuck off on holidays!

It only takes 5-10 mins to sort your team out. Worth doing to make it a decent contest imo.

thought not! hence the result!  :soapy tit wank:

Glad we could help your sides season.  :)

cant remember who ive got next but i want to win again

Am i still in this?

Im glad someone else is taking it as serious as me.  :mrgreen:

Been away for 4 days so just checked to see I beat Mex's team 2-1 on Sunday; 10 points from 4 games.

Tails team away next; that will be my hardest game so far I think.

Detrimentalists 6 - Broken Scoreboard FC 1 for me this time.

Bit disappointing to concede but I went for all out attack. Was hoping to get more than 6 really but that'll do. Still 1 point off the top though, need to close that gap.

i wiped the floor with someone 5-0. i haven't conceded a goal yet.

1-1 draw with Mex's team, bit lucky on the face of it, he dominated possession but failed to create chances. I think I got my tactics wrong on the day. Still a very good result away from home, got some good teams in the league this season  :)

im on fire at the mo too! your two points clear of me so should be a good game when we play each other!  :D

You do get a bit down about this somtimes!

6-1 and you're disapointed to concede! and you're worried about a 1 point gap to the leaders! It's early days mate, don't panic.

Oh, and I am knocked off the top to 4th place after suffering my first defeat of the season; 3-1 at Tails United who are now top.

No, it's just that Ben Wah thinks he's god, so when it doesn't happen he comes up with bad excuses and throws a paddy  :wink:

2-1 loss away from home. bollocks.

what team are you?

coruscant AFC

you lost to me then  :D

I have very high standards for my team because I know they are good enough to win things.

mind games :D

shit totally forgot about that, just watched it and i didnt even field a full team!!! still got a draw though, right must remember next game....

I missed a penalty from the look of it as well

yes you did hahaha, i think i only had 10 men!

No eleven  :mrgreen:

oh fair enough but i did bugger all, have just looked my captain was suspended??? and i played with no tatics, maybe i should try this more often

I would, a draw might have even been harsh on you. I think tightening the wings was a mistake  :|

Ace. I finally won a game. Tbh, i'd rather get relegated, i'm clearly not taking this as seriously as others :D

4-0 away to Bob loves the minge, I suppose that'll do. I'm up to my rightful position in 1st but I have a break next game so might lose it again. More difficult cames coming up, might prove crucial for the championship race.

oh yes 4-0 away from home! now level on points with Calne Town  :D

I beat Norfolk Enchance 2-1. I don't know why they decided to man mark my defender????

2-2 draw with high-flying Jackomanaco FC. A little bit peeved, as i led twice, but at least i've given myself a chance of staying up

3-0 against Tails now level with Detrimentalists on points with a game in hand  8)

4-3 win against someone a bit rubbisher than me. nice.

And I was 2-0 up after 8 mins...playmaker injured and then other mid sent off, not so good

shame that. please stop tugging at my heart strings, i'm in floods of tears here  :soapy tit wank:

I don't keep track of who's who. Think that all of you are in the top league anyway though. If I manage 2 consecutive promotions then I'll beat you all next season.

nah, i'm division 2 and proud of it! cos i'm a bit shit at it ya see.

im ace in the word of Jose i am "the special one" ill probably go shit now ive said that  :D

That was me, and No, I don't know why I did that either.

Good to see BWB being as modest as ever!

i drew 3-3....not happy. i will win division 2.... :beers:

Sort it out Johno

not if i can help it you wont!  :beers:

im sure you will be glad to know that i am now top of div 2!  :mrgreen: 4-0 winners again today!  :beers:

I'm in 4th but with a game on hand on everyone above me. Next couple of games are going to be crucial.

Who's Xeos Tigers in Div 2?

Scored a 92nd minute equaliser  :(

:Ride On Fatbury's Lovestick: that person is never on! i beat them 4-0!

well...all i can say is my defenders aren't on good form at the moment.

and ive won 4-0 twice in a row and your next! best of luck my friend!

I beat Pie Does matter 3-2.

Don't blame it on you trying out new tatics again. I out did you.

4-0 crushing of spuddy's boys. but then he doesnt play it anymore, so ho-hum. definate up-turn in form tho, which is nice.

Or maybe my strikers are too good :D 3-0 what?

Furry muff. Last time I did try new tactics though.

Glad i can help you out aswell, still havent logged into it.  8)

I am Proud of that result. Best so far.

A nice 2-0 home win over Norfolk Enchance, to pull away from the drop zone. Lovely

Bloody hell im 2nd in the league! Not been on it for 2 weeks!  8)

cant wait to play Calne Town on sunday! if i win that it severley strengthens my postition at the top  :D ill be chuffed with a draw though i think

i need a win, and nothing less. my team aren't on good form though which is annoying me!

Are you in the same league as me?, if you are i'll change my team so you can win 7-0 instead of 3.

Good victory today, much better performance by the players.

Calne Town 0 - 4 Helicopter Hotspur

all hail the mighty spurs!  :beers:

Nice win for ya. Expected to lose tbh

Thank God, beat Swindon 4-1 after 3 defeats in a row.

Not going to finish 2nd this time, that's for sure.

I beat Sonic's rubbish 5-0. He should be sacked.

i would like to say once again, my tam is on very bad form at the moment.

i cant even get onto xperteleven website  :(

...and then the next time i try it it works. bastard thing.



and i'm greated with a 3-0 win over bolton reds. cracking :D

hello HELLO HELLO

BEN ARE YOU THERE?

i wonder why xpert11 "special one" has not posted.

do you think its because my team of latins beat him 2-1 and we had a goal disallowd for a dubious offside decision.
"ben im going to win the leauge im the best" :Ride On Fatbury's Lovestick:

I notice that too Mex  :mrgreen:

Well 4th time lucky, it had to happen some time I guess.

hello hello we are the chiapas boys
hello hello we are here with our sex toys
and if you are a detrimentalists fan surrender you are gay
we all follow chiapas.

Wahoo 2nd in the first division. With a game in hand. I am going up. etc.

4-2 win over the then leaders Tails United. Not as good as the 5-1 last season but I'm happy with that. Got another manager of the round award too. Another tough game next against His Infernal Majesty next who have been doing very well recently.

fucking hell i actually lost  :shock: fair play Beckett for being the first person to beat me! although i must admit my team were the better side! more possesion more chances so lets call this one a fluke! oh and im still top by 4 points  :D

:shock: who is fc boxer shorts?

no one knows! its getting a bit tighter in div 2 now ive lost!  :soapy tit wank:

can i join in pleeeeeeeeeeeeese.

have to wait till next season Dave mate

3-3 draw at Jackomanaco FC.

2-0 up 3 mins in the second half, 3-2 down going into the 92nd minute so I'm happy with a point.

I beat Minge 3-0. Up to 2nd but had a few easy games lately.
Now it starts getting tough.  :|

A 5-0 crunching of Sonic's team, means i'm looking a bit more likely to stay up. Victory against the Minge Lovers should keep me safe for next season in the Prem

4-0 owning of Xeos tigers. playing them again sunday, ouchies!  :soapy tit wank:

Top of the league by a point. Loads of games left though, still very interesting league. Should have secured myself a place in the prem for next season though

i have to win tomorrow its important i dont go on a mini bad run like Johno!

Detrimentalists 4 - His Infernal Majesty 0

A great result and finally my team is performing at there full capabilities with no bad performances, 5 players made the xpert eleven and I got another manager of the round. Excellent.

ive probably lost, may have a look.

beat Harriers 3-1 away! back on track! revenge is sweet! oh and who the fuck did a dirty trick on my team?  :soapy tit wank:

I know ive lost without even logging in.  :D

you won  :shock:  :soapy tit wank:

 :Ride On Fatbury's Lovestick:

I feel sorry for who ever i beat.

FC Boxer Shorts!  :Ride On Fatbury's Lovestick:

And what loser represents them?.

echOes  :?

3 points clear now. Still looking a tough league and anyone can beat anyone.

3-0 against xeos tigers. lovely! my strikers are really settling into a nice rhythm :P


4 straight wins, all of em scoring 3 goals or more.

i'm happy to be 2nd in div1 :D

Im happy to be something in division something.

spuddy when you invest as much time as i do into this it's just rewarding to see it pay off.

pride

just a little word for you there

Has the overtime dried up?.  :mrgreen:

not as good as my 7 straight wins  :D before harriers fucked it up!

Nice 3-2 win at Bedford's place today. Keeps me top of the league  :)

Top of div1 is pretty top. Pretty sure the penguins will come out top though. :D

1-1 draw away to spain in the arse. They have been on form recently and are one of the better teams in the league but could have done with a win especially with pies does matter fluking a 92nd minute winner against the run of play.

:D :beers:

 :\/

wow, i lost. shock.

Just a shame you couldn't beat me today.  Sorry about that 4-0 spanking! :D

1-0 loss, bollocks.

Nice, thought i was going to get crunched by you Ben, i'm happy with a draw 8)

won 3-0 today! Looks like im now 9 points ahead of 4th place which means im looking good for promotion with 7 games left! as for the title well Hope and Prey are trying their best to catch me..........

You knows it!

tomorrow is a big game for me. if i can win i will be very close to promo i think! thats if others lose points

2-2 with Spain in the arse, I took a risk for this match playing an out of form defender because he only needed one more game to have his heart in the club. It backfired but in a few games time the team should have reached their all time peak and will be easily the best team in the league. Short term sacrifice for long term gain.

The team won't be giving up on this years title to the very end but are already building for a full scale assault on the title next year. Winning the title in our first year in the premiership was always an ambitious aim with so many clubs that had not been played before but I'm confident of a strong finish to the season and a great campaign next season. We now have the players to win the title, so it's a case of giving the new players time to settle in and getting the team into their optimum condition.

Worth noting I still got another manager of the round award to add to the collection. 8)

Nice, i'm on a decent little run at the moment 8)

Yeah I think I played you at the wrong time, would've preferred earlier in the season. I'm tipping Spain in the Arse for a top half finish.

Nice. Knocked 6 goals past Norfolk Enchance today, I blame the manager's man flu though so I think my next game will be a lot, lot tougher.

7 points clear now, hopefully I can retain that gap for a few more games to make us harder to catch later on in the season.

im still going good! 5-1 today my biggest win so far i think. i reckon im not far off promotion now being 11 points clear of 4th. xeos tigers next so should win that one too.

A 5-1 demolition of AWOL Bob Loves Minge today. Moved up a place as well 8)

Comfortable 2-0 over Wacko Jacko's team. Don't think he's shown up for a bit though. Still maintain my 7 point lead which is good.

It's proper bo I tell thee!! NIce 3-1 win over Leggets team has me level on points with him and 5 points of a promotion slot...gonna be a good run in!

beat tails again its starting to get boring playing tails :D

won 6-0 today so if i beat Leggett's bunch on sunday im promoted! bring it on!  :D

I am few Quality players short. lost 4-1 to BWB. Didn't expect anything anyway.

But got an easy game Sunday. Bobs Minge.

Isn't that my team?  I really should get around to managing them....

i probably lost again.

Very happy with the 4-1 away win. Unfortunately though I have a nasty injury/suspension crisis now which is a bit shit.

haha, i won!  :beers:

i have a comprehensive win 2-0 and 64% possesion.
admittedly against the bottom team but it's bound to inspire the troops!

No, you're Suffolk Enchance

Another comfortable win today. 4-0  8)

4-3 winners today and im promoted goodbye div 2  :beers:  :D

5-1 away win against Tails United. A great result especially with my star striker out and only 13 players eligible to play. Also got another manager of the round and 4 players in the xpert eleven.

Difficult game next though against jaguares de chiapas though even if I lose I should hold on to second but of course I will be going for the win.

Talis hasn't logged in for a while now. Swindonbob has been sacked by Bobs Minge.

Im not bottom which is great seeing as though I havent logged in for about 2 months.I got this message-

Beer has been sold to underaged persons at the home games and a tv journalist forces the club chairman to answer questions such as "Is this really the right thing to do?. When the chairman says yes the sponsor revenues decline by 286 000 econ. :D

Get in! Superb 3-1 win over 3rd place Jaguares de Chiapas even with my captain  and star player out injured and a 3-4-3 formation and as Pies does matter didn't win I've closed the gap to 5 points. I've got a weeks break now.

oh tits i totally forgot, shit you beat me 3-1 did you? did i have 11 men? i better check.

Up to third after beating the scoreboard rubbish 5-0.

Next, The pie dude. I beat him twice before. But I doubt I do it again. :(

lost 5-0. bollocks.

won 5-0 today! ive scored 50 goals this season! god knows how many i would score if it was 46 games  :soapy tit wank:  :soapy tit wank:

:D Very happy to hold Si Pie's runaway league leaders to a 2-2 draw!

Coasted to another 5-0 win against 4th in the table. Division 2 is too easy!

and your only 2nd  :Ride On Fatbury's Lovestick:

:o After my great run of form, i got belted 4-0 by Norfolk Enchance

Good win for me today which takes me 8 points clear although Detrimentalists have a game in hand (looks like a given victory as well). Some tough fixtures ahead and the away fixture against Detrimentalists looks crucial.

Up to 5th, Wahoo!

Sorry Village, my team seem to have found some form again. That's 6-1, 3-0 and 4-0 for my last 3 games.

No game for me today, so had a look at the Pies does matter game, which was surprisingly close.

Got a couple of games coming up where I should pick up some points but a tougher end to the season, unfortunately it looks as though I'll be playing Norfolk Enchance just as they've come back into form.

won today but only 3-2! 4 points clear at the top now with just 2 games left! so one more win and the title is mine  :D

I wouldn't say that. 57% possession and created over double the chances they had.

They're a very good side so I expected it to be closer than it was!

One of my strikers also got injured and the young substitute did very well.

Nah 2-0 is close I eased to a 4-0 win in the equivalent fixture and beat them 4-1 away with 10 men and a player injured.

In that case I hope I will get more close 2-0 victories then.

I'm hoping for more 8-0's personally, only one so far, could do with some more.

I forgot all about it today. I did remember last night, but it was 2am and couldn't be asked to switch my pc on.

I think I am one of Pieman bogey teams. (and one of their supporters  :wink: ).


Pieman won the league. Easy!!

Saying that. Have you beat Pieman team this season? No, Only me.

Pieman hasn't won the league yet. :nono:

I haven't won against him yet but I've only played him once, I was only playing mind games with Si Pie anyway and you've got to have mind games, you have a good side and fair play for beating him.

Glory supporting though. :shake:

There must be a avantage of supporting a team? That's why I tried it? What's the point supporting otherwise? I don't know?

champions! and rossi lost as well  :Ride On Fatbury's Lovestick:

Forgot to do my team but won 6-0 anyway and manager of the round again. Should've been more really though, I was 6-0 up at half time.

I forgot to do my tactics :evil:
Promotion anyhow so I'm happy :beers:

i won 2-0, i think im promoted now??

Drew 2-2 with Wacko Jacko. Bang goes the European push :|

3-0 vs deformed penguins. leapt over them in the league to go one point behind hearts with a game in hand!

you cunt that's me. I forgot about my team this week though. does that mean I'm out of the top three?

yes it does! wessex reich, hearts, me and then you. quite tight up at the top

I got a 2-2 draw at Blinkpips place to stay 5th in the Premiership. Forgot all about it so quite happy with the result.

Your a bit of a bogey team for me.  :x (then again, most teams are)

pretty even match though, although you did miss a penalty.

Did I. Shit. I am dropping who ever missed it. :x

Just noticed, in Mex's 2-1 victory over Sonic, SY's goal was scored by his keeper :D

I won 7-0 away today, however looks like the title chance has gone barring an incredible fuck up by pies does matter. Had they only drawn today I could've overtaken them on goal difference, as it was it was a very close game but they scraped a 1-0 victory and now only need to beat the minge and broken scoreboard to win the title.

Next season will be the detrimentalists year I'm sure, now 6 points clear in second though when many thought saying we could win the title was overly optimistic, but we've pushed the pies all the way and proved this team has the quality to win the premiership and hopefully next season we will win it.

Seems my mini-injury crisis didn't help but still picked up the win which was good. I still haven't dropped points at home since the league started which is rediculous really.

My players form hasn't been very good this season either, so I think the skills will be going down next campaign. Expect me to not do as well. You can still win this season's title though Ben, although it does look unlikely.

I can't see you losing to bob loves the minge and broken scoreboard unless your team forgets to turn up, even then it would be close. Those games are a guaranteed 3 points really.

Are there people in my league that still do their tactics and stuff? I have just logged on to find my rating down to 3 but I am second in the league!

I know I've already lost the title, but a quality 4-1 away win away to league winners Helicopter Hotspur today.  Onwards and upwards to Division 1

Picked up a 4-0 victory over the retired Nozza's Swindon. Good result, but i'll be languishing in mid-table obscurity for this season. Better than relegation i suppose :|

I blame Nozza for our poor performance (STFC) this season. He's jinxed us by using the Swindon name.

Nozza out! Oh he's already gone...

i forgot again, im quite bored of this to be honest

Beat Tails 4-0, still in 5th. And relegation is impossible now. The good form continues, away to Mex's team next.

 :D nice win though

2-1 win over Pies Does Matter today to make it 6 wins in a row, dominated possession and had more chances too. Cuts their lead down to 5 points with me having a game hand, shame it's come to late to take the title.

I now have the best goal difference in the league too.

Never say never. I was playing for the draw and so made the decision to play long balls and defensive, which was a bit risky - knew your midfield is better then mine.

Looks like you've guarenteed second place at least.

Well if His infernal majesty, norfolk enchance and jaguares de chiapas all get big wins and I go on a disastrous run I could still finish 5th, so it's still all to play for. 2nd does look fairly likely though.

Nice 1-0 win at Mex's team, up to 4th now.

The good run continues, looking forward to the home match against Ben's team on Sunday.

Lost 3-0 at home to Ben's team, possession and chances quite close but he does have the better team. If he starts well next year then I think he will give Si Pi an even better run.

I am aiming for 4th place now as I have the two bottom teams in my final two fixtures to play.

Picked up a tight 1-0 win over Blinkpip's His Infernal Majesty, with a 74th minute winner from my centre half. Great victory, keeps me in with a shout of finishing in the top 5

I won 4-0 today against the no show minge lover, which was a solid result, should have had a few more goals but that's ok, especially as I decided to field a young striker.

I'm surprised I've done this well again, don't think it will be the case next season. For some reason many of players haven't been in form so I expect some loss in skills as well.

BWB will win next season.

I can take some comfort from the fact that his goalie and 5 front players all got into the team of the week, so they must be pretty good.

Very pleased with this win, thought I might lose as your teams on good form but every played played well and my goalkeeper made some great saves.

Haha yeah that's ace all of the attacking players in the team of the week are my mine.

Going by the team ratings I think it was my performance of the season.

4-1 away for me today. If I can win my final game it will close the gap to just two points. If only one of those draws had been a win.

Beat Tails 4-1, which guarantee's me at least 6th place. If i can beat Mex in the final game, i could finish as high as 3rd, although realistically, a win would see me finish in 5th

Won 4-0 at Bob loves the Minge to go up to 4th. At home to bottom team Broken Scoreboard in my final match so should win that, and hope Village's team can get at least a point off Mex's team so I can pinch 3rd spot.

A good win sees my team win the league. Whoresome  :D

I'm losing a bit of interest now though  :|

another win but still 1 point off hearts for the last promotion place

crap. I neglected the mighty deformed penguins somewhat in recent weeks and have gone from promotion candidates to mid-table obscurity. Oh well. Maybe I'll try harder next season.

Season Season finished then. I finished 4th, better than last season. Pie Does matter may have it tough next season.

balls i missed out on promotion by one point  :evil:

Won my last game 6-1 to get the best goal difference in the league.

I'd like to congratulate my star signing Bo Petaja who has won the premiership's player of the season as he has the most xpert11's.

Better remind Tails to start the new season.

I get the distinct feeling that Mex has given up....i beat his Jags 5-0

Beat Blinkpip to 3rd place on goal difference after a good end to the season.

2nd and 3rd in two seasons, not bad.

I get the feeling there is a growing apathy with Xpert now.....maybe find out who wants in/out, before we start the new season? Could limit it down to 2 divisions, possibly

Might as well. Would keep it more interesting.

I think we should get the new season started soon. Where has tails got to?

Just noticed the change report is through...

4-1 victory over Rich's helicopter hotspur in a friendly today. :beers:

fair play Ben. you were always going to win though becuase you have a better team. you man marked Warner as well although he has been shit for me recently. ive got pies does matter on sunday now........i dont have much hope for that one either

Still no fixtures yet for the new season, does Tails have to start it? He hasn't logged in for 2 months.

Bloody tails.

yeah he does! come on Tails get your ass on there now!

It's cool people, I've taken it over. Will have it sorted by the end of the weekend.

he fucking has as well! ace cheers si!  :D

Sorry about that! Don't go on there anymore so let mr pie take over.

did u get banned for cheating?

fuck off.

:mrgreen:

Ok we can do as Village suggests and just have the people who want to continue play or we can can carry on like normal. If people want to state whether they want to carry I can see if we'll still have enough for teams for a league. If not, we will just carry on as it has been.

im not playing

Perhaps delete the people who haven't logged on for several months? (Or at all) Then, anyone else who doesn't want to continue (Mex?)

I'm still in!

I am still about on it. Start a new thread and ask for new members. Or even a few from the loud and proud lot.

I'm in

Just get rid of all the people who say they don't want to play, don't want to delete anyone by mistake.

Blackcurrant, Sonic Youth, Walrus, Swindon Bob, Nozza and Coxernator are some of the main ones who never go on.

Asking any of the loud and proud people if they want to play isn't a bad idea.

Add to that Whits, Spuddy, Beckett and a few others that don't go on much

scandal  :D

I'm still in for it.

Well played Mr Wah Balls, you beat my side 2-1 in a friendly. Took the lead, but couldn't hang on. Your midfield is a different gwavy

Good game that. I can see spain in the arse being title challengers this year.

I don't think so somehow, but i'd be happy with a top 5

i beat Pies Does Matter 2-0 in a friendly today  :beers:  :soapy tit wank: unlucky bro!

Ok I'm going to start the season next week. If anyone wants to join do it by the weekend.

**BUMP**

Anyone who wants to join/drop out let me know before midnight tonight. I will start the new season next week on Thursday.

Get me outta there... i have no internet at home, and i never really bothered anyway.

I still want in. Just noticed that whoever is manager of Wessex Reich, has splashed £16.8m on a midfielder :shock:

I just saw that. Insane.

I think we still have enough for 3 divisions, so it should be ok.

Ace. I'm going to shout at my team through the screen so they are prepared for the new season.

If I'm still there, get rid of me. No time.

I beat his team 3-1 in a friendly yesterday, before he signed that player!

Must have been saving a long time for that.

To those to which it applies:

The new season starts on Thursday 18th May. Be sure to have your tactics planned in advance before you forget. Matches are played every Thursday and Sunday at 6pm our time (N.B. The website is ahead one hour).

There are 7 or 8 teams per division with 3 promo/relegation slots so it's going to be an interesting season.

ace! my tactics are sorted and so is my team! i wish everyone in Division 1 luck this year!

Going to be  a hard season in the Premiership this season, down to 8 teams and no weak ones in there.

Johno, I've challenged your team to a friendly if you fancy a match before the season starts.

Beat Flammable Ben's team 2-0 yesterday, which i was pleased with.

Going to be a tough scrap in the Premiership this term, all of the teams that are in from last year are strong, and i imagine the teams coming up will do well. I'd be happy to retain my Premier League status, if i can

Good start to the new season, 3-1 away to Wessex Reich.

i won 1-0 away to Flammable Ben's team so im chuffed with my start

6-0 Win at Home to Jackomanaco FC  8)

Top of the League.

(Only saying that cause I know it won't last, but nice to have a good start to the season).

1-1 with BlinkPip's team, not too bad. Tough home game against Bed Red's side next

I can't log on. I thought it was a server problem? I couldn't re arrange my team earlyer.
I still can't log on now. But I am glad to get a draw with Village. (we always draw with each other).

I just tried and can log on ok, and could earlier.

Sorry, that doesn't really help much.

I can log on. But when I click on the league or my team name, it's just re fresh the page. :x

That was happening to me earlier but it worked after a few trys.

Just logged in to update my team for tonights match against Village's team, and get a message that my financial person at the club is untrustworthy and hasn't been paying the clubs taxes, I have to pay it back now  :evil:

Should be a good game tonight against Spain in the Arse.

7-0 win today so I'm top on goal difference, remains close though. Tough game next away to spain in the arse who I couldn't beat last season.

1-0 win away to Spain in the Arse (Village's team); very happy with that.

2nd behind Ben's team, and haven't let a goal in yet. My goalie's been picked for both X11 teams so far.

Tricky home game against His Infernal Majesty next.

Dan, are you checking on your team as you've been hammered 6-0 and 7-0 in your first two games?

Well done Bed Red, kind of expected it tbh

how can i get accepted in this league do one of you have to let me in or something

i won 3-0 today so thats 2 from 2  :beers:

im on the waiting list now to get into the league..how long does it usually take???

We've just started a new season, so it might be the end of the season before you can join, I'm not sure, they last a couple of months.

ah well i will have to wait.cheers ben

The season will end on the 4th July. I'll add any people waiting after that.

Slightly disapointing 2-2 draw at home to "His Infernal Majesty" as had more possession and double the number of chances. They're a decent side though and I'm still unbeaten so I can't complain.

Looks like the title will come down to the games between Si Pi and BWB's teams already. Will be a close fight this year.

Got beaten 3-1 by BWB's Detrimentalists :( And i've got Si Pie's team up next :(

Calm down Village. I'm not that good this season, looking to rebuild for next.

Won 6-0 today  :o  :beers:

i won 6-0 too  :beers:

Beat my 'team'

On the way home from a party yesterday Loke Hoffmann drove of the road. Also in the car were Òmar Guðjón and Graeme Knight. Fortunately none of them were seriously injured but they will be unable to train or play matches for a few days because of shock.

 :|

That's a bit harsh Village; I never seem to get anything like that.

Hope they weren't all your best players seeing as they can't play against Si Pi's team tomorrow now.

This happened to me the other day.


Personal problems:

Joey Defoe got into a fight a few weekends ago and has now been convicted for assault. The player will therefore spend some time behind bars.

Went 2-0 down, but clawed back to a 2-2 draw :o

Nice work village, that's put me two points clear at the top as I won 4-0, tough away game to Swindon Eagles next though.

Don't think I'll win the league this season. Most of my midfielders have been in poor form for half of the last season and the start of this. Nobody has ever beaten me at home in the league though  :)

i lost! bugger! Cant be asses with no more to tell you the truth

Rich throws the teddies out the pram after one defeat. How are you still a Swindon fan? :wink:

coz im ace!  :D town through and through! just losing interest in Xpert11 tbh its getting boring now! it also annoys me when i beat 3 teams who change their tactics but when i play one that doesn't i lose!

Beat Rockin' Robins 4-0; But I think their manager turns up as much as Dan Jackson does! so was expecting to win anyway.

Toughest match of the season next at home to Ben's team.

Won 7-0 away to JFK Rifle Club.  23 goals in 5 games now, this league is easier than division 2!

Beat Pips team 2-0 which was good because he's usually my bogey team.

One of my best defenders is still out though after getting into a fight and being jailed  :x

Totally forgot to do my team so 0-0 away to norfolk enchance is not too bad. Does bring my 11 game winning run to an end though.

Just logged on and saw the score. Thought you would beat me so I am happy with a point; keeps me in 3rd.

Si Pi's team away next.

thats only because im having an awful season at the moment! won my first 3 games without conceding a goal and now its gone tits up. i should have won my last 2 games but the other teams fluked it! johno had 1 shot against me but we still drew  :roll: and to make it worse ive got you next! but we will wait and see how that game pans out......

A 3-2 win at Pies Does Matter  :shock:  Wow; wasn't expecting that result. Have you dropped any points at home before Si?

Anyway; keeps me in 2nd; and relegation looks a long way off with the half way point in the season coming this Thursday.

Nope that's the first points I have ever dropped at home.

I think that result will sum up my season, but it's about time someone else won it, I don't deserve 3 titles in a row. Tricky games coming up as well so I think I will just try and get a safe league position.

Despite having a player sent off, still picked up a 3-0 win away to Jackomanaco FC. Still looks like i'll be involving myself in a relagation scrap this year

How does one unvolve themself?

:D Typo, now edited

Didn't spain in the arse draw away to pies does matter last week?

4-0 win today keeps me in the lead. Pleased to have 7 players in the xpert11.

im shit! im having the worst season ever! i'll probably be down to div 2 again next year  :roll:  its pissing me off! cant win for shit! Rossi beat me 4-1!

FC Boxershorts are on the rise, two games played under my control and two won.  League one here we come.   8)

You knows it!
6 games played and I'm already 7 points clear.  I'm looking forward to competing with the big boys next season in teh Premier!

im back on form with a 7-1 win against JFK Rifle Club! nice  :beers: needed that win big time!

Detrimentalists 5 Pies Does Matter 2!

Hurray! Much more possession and chances too. That puts me 4 points clear at the top of the premiership, get in!

1-0 win over rockin robins keeps me just above the drop zone

3-2 loss to Wessex Reich. Oh well, in 3rd place so not bad for the half way point of the season.

Superb 3-1 away win for me today, even with a player going off injured still dominated posession, created far more chances and got 6 players in the xpert11. 6 points clear now, just need to maintain this lead and the title is winnable.

1-1 at Home to Wessex Reich; fair enough result as possession and chances were the same; keep my 3rd place.

Pies Does Matter at home next.

Won my match 3-0, which keeps my head above water on goal difference.

i continue my new found good form by winning 6-1

Oh hurrah my internet has been down (it still is, I'm on bloody dial up atm), it's probably a faulty line, the bastards at BT have done it before.

So don't wank yourself too hard Ben Wah  :wink:

Excuses.  :shake:  I would have won anyway.

Bugger; lost 2-1 at home to Si Pi's team.

Down to 4th and away to Ben's team next!

England esque 2-0 win at home. That'll do. The game against Bedford will be a very important one.

i lost to Rossi again  :-))(  but this time it was close 3-2

Big Time! :D  :D

Picked up a very unexpected point with a 2-2 draw at Wessex Reich 8)

my dreadful season continues with another defeat! i dont think ill ever win a game

Survival is looking a bit better after a win today.

I keep forgetting about my team. propper rubbish. Sorted it out with a new signing last week so hopefully I won. I can't be bothered to check.

things are going well... 8)

Good win over Spain In The Arse today keeps my team in 3rd place, things looking on the up after a poor mid season show

i won 4-1 to leapfrog Heart Of STFC back into the promo places

Had a 7 goal thriller against BWB's Detrimentalist's! Unfortunately, it ended in a 4-3 defeat for me :(

However, with Blinkpip's HIM team losing today, i'm 4 points clear of the relegation zone, with 2 games to play. Might all boil down to a final day decider, next week......

Nice 2-0 win away at His Infernal Majesty today. 7 points from 3 away games keeps me in 4th and I can't be relegated now.

Also; the only team to take points off BWB's Detrimentalists; drawing both games against them.

I have finally won the premiership in style with a 6-0 away win against Jackomanaco. Get in! :beers:

Well done BWB.

I beat Village's team 1-0, will finish 3rd or 4th. Wessex Reich will finish 2nd in their 1st season in this league.

Won 3-0 at Jackamonaco FC to finish 4th on goal difference; Pies Does Matter's 4-0 win beating me by 1 goal.

Positives; got two draws off the Champions; and the least goals conceded along with the Champions.

Negatives. Finished 2nd; 3rd and 4th in the three seasons we've played so far. Hope that trend doesn't continue!

Completely forget to do my team so was still using the 3-4-3 formation from last time so I lost but I'd already won the league so doesn't really matter.

excuses excuses  :soapy tit wank:

Lost the final game of the season 1-0 to Blinkpips H.I.M side. Managed to stay up on goal difference, my Premier League status secure for another year..... :beers:

5-0 win to finish off a cracking season. 42 points out of 42 and only 3 goals conceded

Hey I don't see you winning your league Rich. :wink:

It is all true though, left my team ultra offensive which was only meant to be for the easy game against one of the teams whose manager never turns up.

FAO Mr Pieman

There are quite a few team managers that haven't logged on to check their team in a while.....

rockin robins
jackomanaco fc
jfk rifle club
swindon
xeos tigers
bolton reds
and beza fc

Thought it might be an idea to have 2 leagues next season, or possibly one big league?

I'm thinking 2 leagues would be better as then it still has the element of promotion and relegation. If I'm being honest though Village I'm going to be busy over the next week and unlikely to log on alot. If someone wants to ask what the other managers prefer that will be grand.

Actually, I've just made a thread in the league forum, so don't worry  :)

count me out for the next one

thats because i won mine last season so this season my players form in general got worse. but ill take 3rd  :D

I'd prefer at least 2 leagues; so as you say you still get promotion/relegation etc. Otherwise if you're not near the top of the league there's nothing to play for.

I'd take it on, but i don't have internet access at home, only work, so i wouldn't be much cop.

May i suggest Mr Wah Balls? If he's interested?

It's ok mate I think I'll get a general idea of what people want and I will sort it out at the weekend when I go back down to southampton, as I'll be doing nothing but packing my stuff up anyway.

Cool. If i'm honest, i didn't actually read your post correctly, thinking that you'd tendered your resignation from Xpert League Admin. I'm going to stop skim-reading stuff

How do you get into the forum on Xpert 11.

Daft question I know; when I click on forum it brings up 1 thread; when I click on that I get a blank screen.

Probably doing something daft; help please.

Beat Calne Town 2-0 in a pre-season friendly.

Have challenged Helicopter Hotspur to a friendly; so if you're the manager and reading this then please accept; I want to see what I'll be facing next season.

okies thats me! cheers bedford haha i just logged out now but ill log back in again

Cheers for that Rich; game is arranged for Sunday 7pm kick off at my place.

Beat Helicopter Hotspur 4-1 in another pre-season friendly after being 1-0 down.

im gunna struggle next season i think even though my team has got better

Another pre-season friendly arranged at home to Hope and Pray Utd this Thursday. That will be all the promoted teams I will have played then.

This will be the toughest pre-season match by a long way; they walked the 1st Division last season.

Fuck, I've forgotten to sort the new season out  :|

I'll do it in the small hours when I get bored  :)

New season starts 20th July. 2 divisions with 6 teams each and 2 promo/relegation places

Bloody Hell; I'll be hard pushed to avoid relegation this year.

6 teams; I definately think Detrimentalists; Hope and Pray Utd and Wessex Reich will be fighting for the title; which leaves Pies Does Matter; Spain in the Arse and my team (Swindon Eagles) fighting for 4th spot to avoid 5th and 6th which go down!

am i not in the top league then? that takes the piss as i was promoted last year! at least it'll be a doddle in the league below though

That's the only way it would work I'm afraid bro, unless there was one big division which most people didn't want.

I think your team is stronger than Hope and Pray Utd, Bedford.

We'll see about that! :x

any chance of a late joiner??

You can only join before I approve the start of the new season. If you sign up now you'll be able to play next season though and I can send you a reminder then?

2-2 draw against Hope and Pray Utd at home in a friendly; pretty even match.

Flammable Ben; I've challenged your team to a friendly so if you fancy it please accept soon as the last date free before the season starts next Thursday is this sunday.
