Gaming The SM RedCafe League


I assumed by the time someone applied for West brom that leeds were already taken I thought someone would have been keen for them with them being 2nd in the league with one of the biggest stadiums and all that.

Just doesn't seem to be that interest anymore. West Ham in Div 1 have been available for a while with a 40k+ capacity stadium
 
Thanks. Yours is just as good, and congrats on the Torres deal
Thanks. My youth team is about a year behind yours though in terms of being ready, will get there. Happy about adding torres to the side.

Still a very good deal for TS who is looking to win the title this season

C'mon Damien. All you're doing is collecting the very best players in this game and these fools allow you too. No long term thinking at all.

FYI not bitching about you. You're dicking over the rest of us in exceptional ways. Fair play.
 
Both sides are happy. Digne for asking aswell. Don't forget! Boateng was having his best season so far :nervous:

How do you guys normally chose captain? Benatia/Alba have been at the club for longest. Do i go for one of them?
 
My first XI is weaker now than it was before.

I've plumped for Dave. Kompany was my captain about 3 seasons ago but changed to Dave for consistency. With you I'd probably go for Benatia.
 
2 of my promising youth team now have ligament injuries, just days after buying Ferreira VALDÍVIA he picks up a cruciate rupture along with Ponce who was going to be loaned out in January, another of my south Americans nearly killed himself in a car crash Cervi, no wonder Benfica are taking him early,

On the bright side Sanchez is playing regularly with benfica, there is talk of benfica going in for a few of our young serbians, Baez could end up at empoli on loan for rest of the season.
 
1:0 win against Villa. Özil <3

Against Southend in the next round of the Shield... urgh.
:lol: not complaining as my kids won against Sunderland 1st team (forgot to change tactics I think)

Anyway, not going to survive against you (why the match not held at Old Trafford ffs). Expect double-digit loss with whichever team I put out

now, the reason why, because the changes have already happened mid season and we will have to move with the times and it makes more sense than waiting 3 months to change the ffp structure when we are already feeling the effects.

Any ways shouldn't we wait to see what the new FFP structure is before voting, after all its Christmas i imagine a few of us will be getting plastered over the next few days and i imagine Redsky couldn't be arsed doing it right now
 
@RedSky for example Southend Utd's new cap is 56. That hasn't include the +4 caps for Div 3 teams right? So I can have maximum of 60 players in my team?
Looks like it, also we could implement this now and change it later if the game changes the finances/ we change the economy, if it would benefit the league, obviously that would be next season.

It would be nice to know what the rich economy weekly rate is.
 
It's because the finances increased and due to Old Traffords huge advantage over the rest of us in capacity it pretty much meant that the gap actually widened in terms of revenue gain. Hence the FFP actually meant that some clubs now get +1s.

Those figures on the spreadsheet are without the league bonus caps.
 
As we practice democracy (not sure if it ever exists here before lol), deadline remains on Monday, 28th Dec 12pm BST, and current vote stands at 5-4 in favour of new FFP now. Maybe you will get drunk on Christmas and realize you've made a mistake and decide to change vote later

Only 9/42 voted so far

I think if anything people will realize there mistake in voting no
 
@The Man Himself I think I'm quitting the game as I have no more time for some reasons, this game needs a lot of time and I just can't provide that man, if you want the team back please tell me before I quit.
 
The mobile version of the site doesn't tell you if a player is cup tied. Modric started in place of torres and will now not be available for the Utd game :(
