Well, the next round is up and there are a couple of interesting games that come up. First is Durham Wasps v Titanic Turtles and then the two EBBL teams LIDL V Doncaster. Also Extremadabra v Los Mikitos.

Looks like it will be a good round to watch that is for sure.

Hawks beat LIDL, there's a prediction.

Few other decent ties -
Vecx's Tide of Fire vs one of the best d2 teams surely, in Irvine Blackhawks. A Staples vs Innes battle where both in 9 GS? Not that either are one man teams.
Gwent Galacticos vs MexicanTaxiDriver are two highly ranked d2 teams playing each other also. Gwent aren't having as good a season as usual so might focus on a cup run? Or maybe it does the opposite and they need to focus on being better from now on.

Definitely more to watch than last round though.

Hmm, no sure why you'd mention Gully's easy win over me as an interesting game. ;)

Tried to put on a show for Thurs by starting my best possible squad and CT'ING Gully on roughly 12 enthu, unfortunately my match tonight went into OT2 and my minutes got messed up for my starters. Shame, play a weakened side and TIE the match to set myself up for surviving D2.1 now. Sorry Ronso :(

I thought the game between yourself Turtl3 and Gully would be interesting for a couple of reasons. Firstly I think that many managers in the English leagues would recognize that every season you learn and grow as a manager. It is always great to see other managers who are eager to learn, grow and develop great teams which you are in the process of doing over time (keep up the good work).

Secondly, it is always good to see how your team is developing when you play stronger teams.

Thirdly, everyone likes the potential of giant-killing in the cup. You just never know with the BB engine.

However, maybe next time as you went into OT. Hopefully, there will be another time soon

I'm glad you played a weakened side I have to admit. I don't really have five starters to put out at the moment, and certainly don't have enough to rest Bashkardin like I tried to tonight. But still, I was prepared to lose, getting minutes for trainees is more important.

Well fought match by you, but you're probably better off for not having crunched.

It sucks to have exited the cup this early, but the extra enthu should help me for the next 2 league games :D

Some good games tonight, London Rockets narrowing beating New jersey 2 was a surprise to me, but gratz to Sanfranfan! Good luck to all for the next round.
