[Archived] Hattrick
LeftWinger replied to ultrablue's topic in I Can't Believe It's Not Football Archive
I'm still top with two games to go. I'm trying to get enough points to win my league for the trophy, but not enough for automatic promotion. I'll just throw the play off match if I get there. Another great youth pull this weekend- TSI 30. Two of my midfielders moved up levels on Friday though, and I've just bought a Formidable defender- so things are looking up. -
Newcastles Form (Last 16 games) WWWWWWWWDLWLLLLL He's turned them to good and back to bad again in a shorter time than it took him at Rovers. He's obviously becoming more efficient as he gets older
-
I thought Harkins was a midfielder? He's played there the couple of games I've seen him play.

That'll be his x-ray vision kicking in there. -
Maybe he's got a sports almanac Back to the Future style? If so- I'm going down the bookies on my dinner hour

Rovers 2 City 0? Can you tell me Saturdays Lottery numbers too?
-
We've got a run of fixtures we can get a good few points from- and possibly make the top half. Maybe give the likes of Taylor, Garner, Johnson and Barker a place on the bench for a few games. Give them 20/30 minutes of games just to get a taste.

Disagree. If you're running along and something hits you on the shoulder like that it's only natural to raise your arm to protect your face. The fact is he isn't looking at Van Persie, and suddenly he gets hit on the shoulder- it was a pure defensive reaction.

Yeah it was brilliant. I was in the upper tier, row 16 behind the goal in the North End. When they scored, it was brilliant to look round at all the flags waving and people standing. Also enjoyed sitting outside a bar after a game with about 30 Rovers fans. Everytime Arsenal fans when past- everyone went silent and started going "SSsssssshhhhhhhhhhh!". Priceless.

I was 3rd going into the weekend, but the top two drew 3-3, and my win took me top by a point. I want to win the league- but I'm being careful not to get enough points to take me up. Don't think my teams ready for promotion yet. I'd rather spend another year building the team in division 6. What's everyone else's views on this? The team that went up from my league last year has really been struggling this season. Is it the wise move to throw any play off game should I qualify? Or should I take the chance of promotion when it comes along? I'm thinking staying down is best for now- but I'd be interested to see what more experienced players think. -
One funny moment on the coach back. Not long after leaving Cardiff, a car drives past our coach with two Arsenal supporting girls in. The "big boned" one on the passenger side started making 3-0 signs at our coach with her hands. She got a chorus of "Who ate all the Pies" sung back at her - everytime we went past her car.

Ha Ha. Yes it was a great day. Anyone wanna see my dog? Class.
-
Where are we 7/1? I'm tempted by that. I love being written off though- it makes victory that much sweeter

Lets just hope Rovers can pull a similar shock tomorrow. I'd be happy with 6-0 though- don't wanna be greedy -

On Rovers bet Ryan Nelsen to score first goal in 1-0 win is 490-1!!!...Just imagine it!!! ...we'd be able to afford tickets to the final!
-
Thought that must be a wind up. Thank you God. Still be very hard game- but that's a bonus track. ALSO- Ryan Nelsen to score the only goal is 350-1. Worth a quid?
-
Ladbrokes are offering 11/2 on a Rovers win. Possible insurance bet that stands out though. They're offering 5-2 on an Arsenal win with 2 or less goals being scored in total. £20 on that could pay for the day out if it turns out to be disappointing.

How Irobnic!

Good win for you there Big A! Very impressive. -
I like it when everyone write us off. Everyone said Spurs would win the Worthington Cup Final- and we proved them wrong. The more people suggest an Arsenal win, the more pressure on them, the less on us.
-
Lawrensen predicting defeat is a bonus. The man's a rag eyed gonk- who usually gets it wrong. Cheers Lawro.

Just speaking to a United fan at work, and he reckoned they still had 500 tickets left on sale on Monday- which were being sold to any members. So they obviously took their time to sell all their tickets- and they've got a lot bigger supporter base than us. We'll just have to make sure we all make the noise of 2 men. And enough about the crowd- as the great Homer Simpson once said: "When it comes to sporting events, it's not the winning or losing thats important, it's how drunk you get" LEGEND -
I'm now coming thanks to 1864 Roverite and a decision to abandon financial sense. Looking forward to it- won't make a prediction, don't wanna tempt fate.

yes but thats all been said so why sa it again This is an argument that's gone on and on. Both sides have put their points across, and they keep getting repeated. Everyone seems to have forgotten that there is a game on- who's going to be watching the crowd anyway.
