Nope, waiting for Theon to give me a date.
The All-time Auction Draft
- Thread starter Annahnomoss
- Start date
@Skizzo @Pat_Mustard GS sent his write up in already!
Clash of the Titans

No pressure Skizzo, match schedule is still the same
Overachieving bastard!
We'll get it in soon
I gave him minus points for making me work before schedule. I'll go to sleep in some hours so it'll be then or tomorrow.
Not sure if serious, but myself and Skizzo/Pat has already agreed the schedule is on Thursday. I have to send my tactics early because I know I will be quite busy these few days
Just kidding mate! Will never be any issues in any draft if you want to send it in earlier.
The game will be at Friday 12:00 UK time unless they come in to reschedule before that. You will be awarded the win if they fail to send in their stuff by then.
Noted, thanks
Waiting for what? You said you just wanted 24 hours notice - not sure why you're now chasing a time.
Anyway I'm not fussed, Friday is fine as per Annah's comment.
Sent our stuff in to Annah. I'm off to bed, but I told him to start the match whenever. @Pat_Mustard might be around before me, otherwise I'll chip in when I wake up. Good luck!

Reinforcement time and then the final!
Well, you get to go first anyway, I'm still thinking over some options but should decide quite quickly, depending on your pick.We think we have our pick settled if you're ready to get this done now

We thought and thought and couldn't help ourselves
The final is going to be Tiki-taka against Catenaccio right?
We thought and thought and couldn't help ourselves
Hmm... thought you'd do that, was very tempted at picking Rijkaard too, seems to be one of those who'd definitely fit the Busquets role in the Barca 09 formation.
Now I need some time.
He checks quite a few boxes for what we wanted, and like you say, he'd have been just about perfect for that dm role of yours...sowwy.
I'm so stuck...

@Pat_Mustard and I flipped coins last round for our reinforcement pick. Never underestimate the power of randomness

Give me some time to think this over, seems to be so many options yet so few. Anyway, I don't really want the match to go ahead tomorrow (kind of busy), so let's do it on a weekday this coming week?
Yeah next week is fine. Let me know when works for you. No rush with the pick either.
Any time really, Tue (Jul 7)?
Yeah I think that should be fine.

He was quite clearly the best possible upgrade for both. Could very well determine the outcome of this. Well done saving a few bob, clever...
Goes back to you jacking up my Maldini bid in the last round.Wasn't exactly planned that waybut definitely glad we had the first choice.
I'm still thinking about it...
Baresi or Nesta to partner Maldini with Lahm and Alves at FB
Or
Matthaus at DM instead of Schweiny
Or
R Carlos at LB and Maldini to partner Rio
Or
Busquets to fill his role
Get Cafu and DesaillyI'm still thinking about it...

I can't get 2 players, also I don't really see what Desailly would offer that Makelele wouldn't.
Get Cruyff, play to outscore the opposition with:
Schmeichel
Alves -- Rio -- Vidic -- Maldini
Makalele --------
-------- Schweinsteiger
Cruyff
Messi ----------------- Ronaldo
PeleCounter the hell out of him, you think Maradona and Eusebio are dangerous on the counter? try Cruyff Messi Pele and Ronaldo. With the protection you get from that center midfield you can just pop the balls forward

The Pelé he needs to play to get the best out of Messi and Ronaldo wouldn't work well with Cruyff there imo.
Not to mention that playing on the Counter doesn't give you anywhere near the best messi.
Plus a Makelele and Bastian midfield is hardly the best shield to stop GOAT attackers.
Just my 0.02
