hey vecx, gully, you both said he was trying to con people.
That's a little out of order?

There's a question there, so I'll answer it. I don't believe its out of order.

Especially, as his reading of the market is proving to be correct.

That's one way of looking at it. Its not mine.

I have endeavoured to make sure again and again and again that no offence or disrespect was intended. I think you will see it in every single one of my posts. To quote what you reference...

At least I haven't brought up the fact that pricing players like this to con people ignorant enough into buying them....


I deliberately tried to make it clear I was not making that point, I was not bringing it up in my earlier posts and I was actually willing to congratulate rather than put down. If I didn't make it clear enough, I continued to repeat that I was not personally attacking nor meaning disrespect.

How much clearer could I be?

don't go there in the first place?
Never mind, you've both answered my query. Thanks for that.

Congrats to the Fury on another close win against a top blue side team; quite the week you're having.

Easy in retrospect, I had not thought for a moment it would be misinterpreted as a personal attack, thats postmodernist perusal semantics at the insouciance of the composer for you, not matter how much the originator insists on being the one who knows what they mean.

Thanks :)

In my initial season plan the last 4 games where tank and train to build enthusiasm but after the comments this week I asked the Head Coach to put out a stronger line up.

When he asked me to speak to the players before the game I was shocked but agreed and when I told them what had been said about me and the coaching staff they were all very fired up!

I think that made the difference in the game :)

Well played, this is exactly why it is worth going for games rather than throwing them. You've provided a prime example of how it is worth going for games rather than throwing them. I think for both Tata and I, the injuries were significant enough to be the ultimate contributor to the results but thats the game. Injuries happen.

The Season thread used to be so boring in previous seasons. What the hell has happened this Season?

Which do you prefer? You can't really describe something as boring and then go on to complain about how it is now. Personally I think its much more lively now.

I think you're right about the Utopia effect on the market forcing prices up. Clearly there's more money in the game and economically speaking that inevitably leads to inflation. The BBs don't seem to mind this. I don't think its good.

Actually they told me they were fired up because they felt the accusations were unfair ;) I guess they agreed with the 2 independent managers who have pointed that out.

Also it's interesting that you say I'm a con man and you didn't agree when I pointed out the value of salary efficient players in Utopia/lower divisions, but now you agree with someone else when they make the same point?

Could we just move on now, you clearly have a problem with me for some reason, but I try very hard to contribute to the community and forums and to build the game so please just drop it.

I may provide the ultimate example of why not to gamble for 1 win...

My enthusiasm is now at ready. My top 3 guys all played 92 minutes + this week

So I now have no chance other than to take it easy for next 4 games and hope I can beat LT, whereas if I take it easy against you I then have a chance to normal 2 other winnable games or even just 1 but still have much higher enthusiasm for the run in...or sacrifice my prospects training for game shape.

Last season I did the sensible thing, this season for reasons we all know I went for the win, we'll see how it unfolds at end of year.
