Still all in the balance!  😮😆

If anyone from 1-1-1 wants a surprise check out the top 3 in 1-1-2....

Next seasons gunna be epic!

[shellyboy100]

That top 2, has 3 seasons more development than my team! 

[shellyboy100]

I really didn't expect a draw last night. I didn't even bother with AT as I thought Daves team was too strong, and it wouldn't matter what I played.

I did my team rating before the game and I'm at 662. Nowhere near the level of Flashhearts, so I think it's a odd result. Every point counts in my relegation battle though, so I'll take it! 

[bigdealdave]

I have to admit i expected a win but thats what happens in SL, im not going to complain, it keeps things interesting. The Flashhearts will strike back! If they get a chance... Lol

[richff]

Doh! 442 after 60 mins - I didn't do that.....did I?  😕

[bigdealdave]

Rich, Rich, Rich... i most definitely feel for you, its not a nice way to drop points but on the other hand im gunna do my utmost to capitalize!

Seriously with a newly reformed Lowes A, RKS City and Rosenborgsvagen all joining us next season 1-1-1 is set to be tight!

[shellyboy100]

Confirmed my place in 1-1-1 next season with that win last night 

Even though my second half of the season was a lot better than my first half, with the teams coming up I believe I'll still be in a relegation battle next season. I'll tough it out though and be pushing for the title in a few seasons 

Shocked to see rich have a 4-4 draw last night. He used all 3 subs in the first minute though and then got an injured keeper in the 2nd half. You could argue he got away with a 4-4 draw with an injured keeper, but it's Dave's title to lose now as far as I'm concerned.

[richff]

Not happy with that result, 3-0 up and cruising until keeper got injured. Then conceded 3 despite having the majority of the TA. Dave please win the next two games cos then it would have been impossible to catch you and then I won't be as mad with the match engine! 😠 😟 😲

[bigdealdave]

That was extremely harsh! Not how id like to have stretched the lead but yeah ill be aiming for 2 wins definitely Rich, hopefully put your mind at ease but with Jon tomorrow night theres no guarantees.

[shellyboy100]

This is just my opinion, but I don't really think it was a harsh result.

If you sub all your players in the first minute you know the risks if someone gets injured, and it's always possible a player was going to get injured with a nutter ref. It was just unlucky it was the keeper, but it was a big injury too taking a fitness down to 0% and you had no subs. Rich basically had no keeper for the last 32 minutes of the game.

Ok, in real life, if that happened an outfield player would have went in goal, but the game engine wouldn't do that on here and we all know it. I get Rich's frustration after having a big tactical advantage and this most likely costing him the title, but it was basically an open goal for the last 32 minutes, shots from anywhere would have been going in, which is why I thought he was lucky to get away with the 4-4 draw.

It's things like this, that makes me not understand why everyone uses 3 subs in first minute/ fifteen minutes.

I'm not saying this to Wind Rich up or anything but, can someone explain the advantage of it to me? Because I can't see it 🤔.

[richff]

You get a big boost when you use 3 subs Daniel. I first noticed the Borg doing this and beating me all the time!

The other advantage is that injuries after the subs don't affect that players performance - unless it's the keeper 😯

You're right that it's a bit of a gamble but believe me it's worth it!

It's not often the keeper gets injured and last night it cost me dear as it was at a critical stage of the season.

I've calmed down now so it's all good. This morning I was wondering why it happened to me! 😀

[shellyboy100]

Ah,  I see, cheers.

I may trail it til the end of the season with Shields and see what happens I think.

[bigdealdave]

Well tonights going to be interesting... Sorry i couldnt win outright Rich... Truly 

[richff]

It's all about goals! 😉
