FA Trophy 2nd and 3rd rounds

Spoiler

Third Round

Quarter Finals

Spoiler

@AbusementPark needed a replay match to knock out non-league Kettering, but in the end they got the job done.

@Igor Drefljak with his 16M budget suffered to defeat @Herman Toothrot who still hasn't bought a single player.

@oneniltothearsenal brushed aside non-league side Stafford Rangers

Les Ferdinand continues to help @Siorac this time to beat @youngrell

Super effective.

Semi Finals

Spoiler

Place your bets!

 

[Siorac]

I'm coming for you @Igor Drefljak - prepare to be Lessed.

Conference

Spoiler

@golden_blunder is top of the league and realistically only @Igor Drefljak and @Herman Toothrot can still put up a fight.

@golden_blunder had a great opportunity to put the title race to bed but couldn't beat @Igor Drefljak

In the relegation battle, everyone seems safe at this point, except @Anustart89 but he spent 8M in the last month, se we should start seeing results soon.

Current records

Ratings and Goals

Relegation candidate to safety with one signing. Glory glory Richard Dunne.

The other 15 players you bought may have had some influence as well.

 

[Herman Toothrot]

What the hell is wrong with my board?! SIGN ANYONE.

Brilliant thread this, good work!

You never gave me a list! Are they known names?

See you in the final, hopefully

Is there a limit on how many people we can tag in a post?

I've just simulated the season until the end and wanted to post something about all participants, need to know if one post will be ok or I'll have to split it.

Just wondering if I can tag all 24 participants in the same post.

Didn't realise I had Naylor and Walker as well, not really VDS, Vidic and rio but it will do.

I'm sure I've missed a bunch of transfers because of the low fees, normally I post the transfers the game highlights.

I believe you mentioned we splashed out and bought a Spanish waiter?

 

[Peter van der Gea]

Talk about a second half season slump!

And Dickie Dunne and Niall Quinn.

Have I bought anyone half-way decent at all @maniak ?

A random guy from denmark's second tier and 2 free transfers. One was Marek Szmid, who the game tells me was a Man United youth.

 

[Peter van der Gea]

@maniak , who were all these lads I bought? Seemed to have totally collapsed!

You wasted a lot of time buying crap players and only turned to PL players when it was too late.

End of season transfers

Spoiler

@VivaObertan is preparing next season with a top manager at the helm

No idea who this guy is, but apparently is an english international and @Solius paid City 8.5M for him.

Another experienced international for @sebsheep 3M from Chelsea

@Peter van der Gea paid Bolton 5.5M for Gardner

 

[Igor Drefljak]

I’ve spent 18m?

not had one player listed as a picture. It worries me that I’ve got a load of average joes

Must be a decent one or two in there, or you’ve got 36 x £500k players

League 3 end of season - second half of the table, or as our friend Genaro would say...

Spoiler

@spontaneus1 @P-Nut @Šjor Bepo @Solius @Ian Reus @Vidyoyo @altodevil @SilentWitness @paulscholes18 @PSV @Withnail @Stobzilla @Maluco

@Maluco saved everyone from a relegation battle and I'm sure some of his records, especially the 29 matches without winning will be here for many many years.

@spontaneus1 you got the top scorer in the league, so there's that...

@Šjor Bepo spent more than 30M so I guess you can be the disappointment of the season.

@PSV didn't buy a single player, same as @Maluco

There's really not much else to say, good luck next season!

 

[maniak]

I remember posting a couple, Rushfeldt and Windass I guess. But yeah, the rest was a bunch of average joes.

Spoiler

 

[Šjor Bepo]

so im united in the game, lovely!

 

[Igor Drefljak]

Lee carsley

I forgot about windass!

man’s what the hell happened to maluco

 

[oneniltothearsenal]

On our way to the FA Trophy!

 

[Vidyoyo]

Credit to my boys for always finishing in the second half of the table but never flirting with relegation

No one had any chance of flirting with relegation, @Maluco just took it home after one drink.

 

[The Cat]

Banging cup run. Same again next year.

 

[Maluco]

The only positive was at least it was over early enough to give me some days to accept my fate.

Looking forward to a big summer of spending in the conference

The limit is 10. If you tag more than 10 posters, the first 10 get a notification and the rest doesn't.

@Damien, could @maniak get an extension for the duration of this session? I'm not sure what the policy is around temporary extensions of this setting.
