I was lucky that Tumas had to play without Perkins, otherwise things would have been almost impossible.

I won't praise injuries though, since the loss of Hermansky cost me a tournament final and most probably a league game which seems in the end to matter much.

Nevertheless I have a sensible chance of retaining HCA in case of a (hypothetical) final if I can get past Shoes (I have little doubt that Eagles will do his job on saturday).

The last game on saturday will be crazy, with so many teams still having something to aim for, and so many ways of handling them, most notably for those who could end up with a play-off or play-down game.

It has been a very long time since the end-of-season gameday has been such an exciting one !
Most of the teams are still fighting for something and everything will depend on this last gameday.
Kelmis has to win @Shoes to gain the HCA, but Shoes also has to win to ensure himself of a precious playoff-spot, this will be one of the important games to watch for me.
And just as important are many other games, because most of the the teams between position 2 and 5 of both leagues still have to fight to secure their playoff-spot. Only the teams that win their final game will be sure to grab that very precious playoff-spot, while for the losing teams it remains to be seen if they will be playing playoff or playdown at the end of the season, and that's a big difference for any of those teams if you ask me.
I honestly can't remember any season where the final gameday has been so important and exciting as this one !

I would always choose to go for the playoffs, it wil positively impact your supporters number amongst other things, and thus leading to higher income on long term basis.

And also, when i am watching my game, i much prefer watching to see me play for the title than to see me playing to stay in the BBBL, if you know what i mean. I think that, as a manager, you should always reach for the top.

And who knows what happens, i already saw some crazy games before.

You're right, aiming for the best possible spot is of course the best. But, if you're gambling with a CT to get a play-off spot, lose, and end up with a wrecked TS to fight in the play-downs it's nothing pleasant either.

For me it's quite easy,you'll easily win against Obira at home so a win is mandatory. For Shoes, going CT while knowing I'll give my best to win is ... hazardous. Expecting a loss and going TIE to prepare the play-downs might lack ambition. So I'm expecting a good fight !

You made a huge come-back and an impressive second round with 6 wins out of 6 games. That being said, it is absolutely possible that one or both of our teams don't end up playing the final ! I like your chances on saturday more than mine, but your play-offs won't be easy.

I managed to grab HCA if I ever go the final, but at what price ?

Losing my C for 2 weeks will probably cost me the championship. This is the 4th injury this season, the second one for a starter player at a key moment. I'm cursed.

Really, I'm sorry for sounding that bitter but this is truly how I feel right now. That's just ... not fair.

OK, let's see what I can do without one of my starters.

Screw you BB, really.
