Sorry for you with this frustrating relegation... it happened very little

My analysis of what happened to you :
- When you play "all in" against SA Leuven Turtles, you would certainly win by betting on his tactics (= motion) that he has played more than 50% of the time in the league this season -> Certain to finish third, he does not had no reason to prepare for your meeting and therefore to adapt his usual tactics.
- Without enthusiasm and with low energy against Kelmis Spartan, I think that "low post" was your best chance to win your 2 games at home: even if Kelmis is a formidable coach, one of the best Belgians (almost 30 seasons of BBBL league anyway ;-) ) his team, in reconstruction, was really takeable inside this season.

Using all your enthusiasm to don't lose access to the playoffs (when you have a better team than Kelmis Spartan) is probably what you shouldn't try, especially since, following that, you wouldn't have had any chance to passing a PO round -> for finances, I prefer 2 or 3 relegation games than 1 playoff game… For my part, without the hope of a playoff run, I would certainly have keep my 5th place. But 2 injuries from my starting five + a bad tactical bet, impossible to imagine a better end than the result obtained... we'll see next season :-)

It remains a game, to which you'll come back stronger I am sure, take the opportunity to rebuild and above all have fun ;-)

Oh offcourse their Stamina is also important to play a full game of 48 mins, better sticked to my normal routine and tactics.
Thanks Joe.

Let's hope, I can't quit this game, too addicted I guess, but it's maybe not bad to have "a season off" in D.III, in a couple of months my RL is back to normal so actually perfect.

- Betting on the tactics of teams who plays always the same, I did a lot in the past but I gave that up, maybe not a bad advice.

- Yeah Kelmis Low Post or Look inside was indeed the way to go, had a busy januari and I forgot to put my tactics out there as it should be. But with a low enthousiasm due wrong choices and selling top player Kostya Isakka when I thought it was in the pocket was a bit too unfortunate, didn't see the win of your team against Nico coming, that's the main reason I lost, I've guessed and it was wrong, that's life I guess.

- Also not a bad advice about that 5th place as well! I thought already about that finances part, but I thought that it was way to risky haha, but will keep it in my mind next time, I had to make this decission before Leuven and before selling Kostya.

But I know that is a game, I was not that gutted after all, I was actually enjoying some couple of days off so there was no room for being upset about it!

See you guys in the future! And thanks for the kind words and advice, really appreciating that.
Especially from Joe after an earlier incident between us.

Congrats for the new champion...
I wish you all the luck next season ....BouffAssist
