Gaming The SM RedCafe League

[The Stain]

Post something Herrera you cnut, you're safe now @Panther

 

[Ravelation]

In the case of Plymouth...

• He has committed 3 violations of FFP, and that is a request to resign.
• His first violation was clear, and so was this third one.

''If your squad size exceeds your limit, your club will be banned from transferring any players in to the club. This includes P/E deals.''

• The second violation he argued that he was thrown off by being allowed to bid in the draft, so he thought he had allowance to still purchase players .

I think it hinges on this; If his second violation is correct or unjustified.

 

[Varun]

The deal would be worth it for Mendy alone imo. Good deal for Plymouth.

It is a good deal for Plymouth, definitely. Just saying these are hardly players worth trying to be sneaky re FFP about.

 

[Ravelation]

In the case of Liverpool...

• He was explicitly told the deal was not allowed
• The deal went ahead regardless, so Liverpool are at fault for this transfer as well.
  
  BUT
• There are not any rules written anywhere governing if you are liable and can be penalised when selling to a transfer banned club.

I think in this case it hinges on whether you can penalise someone for going against what the authority instruct you to, or not to do, when there are no written rules on the matter.

Maybe it should go down to precedent, what has happened before when a manager made a sale to a TB'd manager, with knowledge of the ban. Has it happened before?

 

[RedSky]

I think lower rated players should get higher rises to a level near their team mates regardless of their ratings. Look at Damo's Valery for example: He's 70 right, starting for a PL side even though it's been only a few games he's looking like he belongs in the starting 11. Why can't he get 83-85 even though he's only 70? They only do this if the player has won something major. We're waiting 6 months for a measly rise.. Fecking shoddy system.

The problem is all the players getting added at 70 rating. Wouldn't be an issue if they were 75-78 rated when added. 70-75 should be for division 2 clubs.

 

[RedSky]

As for Plymouth/Liverpool. I'd TB them both.

Plymouth keep doing it, so he should keep being punished.

 

[The Stain]

This is a big part of the problem, true.

Not worth being asked to leave the league that's for true.

 

[2mufc0]

Plymouth keep doing it, so he should keep being punished.

Doesn't seem to deter him.

[RedSky]

Doesn't seem to deter him.

Aye, thats the real problem. I'm really not sure given we can't actively punish him due to lack of admin controls in SM.

 

[infamous7]

Yeah Pablo doesn't Really care
Be right back gonna go break FFp

 

[christy87]

Aye, thats the real problem. I'm really not sure given we can't actively punish him due to lack of admin controls in SM.

He wasn’t there in the dark days, maybe it’s time to bring them back to show what ye did for the rest of us, let’s see him bitch about no loans then

 

[Damien]

Aye, thats the real problem. I'm really not sure given we can't actively punish him due to lack of admin controls in SM.

It is pathetic. I can understand SM don't want certain admins to go powerhungry but if an admin does, then the people in the league would just leave anyway. There's a good balance between sod all powers like there are now, and giving an admin the key to everything.

 

[Damien]

The insanely talented Isco has scored a brace as United beat Real Betis 4:0. Next up: back-to-back defeats to Darlington and Sunderland.

De Gea (95)

Kimmich (92) Boateng (93) Alaba (93) Gaya (90)↓
Eriksen (93)↓ Kroos (95)
Brandt (90)↓ Griezmann (95) Isco (93)
Mbappe (93)​

Subs: Roberto (91)↑, Christensen (90), Stones (90), Dele (92)↑, Sterling (92)↑, Martial (90), Pogba (93)
Injured: Ramos (95)
Did not travel: Goretzka (91), Shaw (88) - if anyone wants to loan Shaw for the remaining games, feel free.

Key:
= Goal
= Assist
= MOTM
↓ = Subbed off
↑ = Subbed on

Next three games:
MD32: Darlington (A)
MD33: Sunderland (H)
CCR2L2: Real Betis (A)

 

[BenitoSTARR]

Getting frustrating that any decent under 25 players are being mopped up by big teams time and time again leaving everyone newer with the oldies.

Scouting is name of the game

 

[It's a farce!]

When will the stoke draft be?
Can we do it after Xmas? Not sure what everyone's schedule is like but me personally don't really have any time to go over the roster.

Same.

 

[Damien]

Yeah. Might do it after the Premier League review so can redo the values of all clubs properly.

 

[RedSky]

Yeah. Might do it after the Premier League review so can redo the values of all clubs properly.

Yeah thats probably a good idea.

@BenitoSTARR - If you need any player tips for scouting let me know, i've got a big list of players that havent been taken yet.

 

[Flying Fox]

Yeah thats probably a good idea.

@BenitoSTARR - If you need any player tips for scouting let me know, i've got a big list of players that havent been taken yet.

Might have to hit you up on that... With my lot likely to go up next season the squad needs a refresh in some areas

 

[Damien]

As for the smaller teams not having good players, look at:

• Cardiff with Davinson Sanchez, Rodri Hernandez, Amine Harit and Aouar
• Hereford with Ndombele and Malcom
• Southend with Donnarumma, Joe Gomez, Upamecano, Tousart, Torreira, Havertz and Dembele

They've held on. Even Mansfield has Sancho.

Might be tempted to swap with Mbappe

 

[Damien]

I didn't look at the loaned out players to be fair. Anyway, already tried before for de Ligt but greeny is stacked pretty much everywhere so got nothing he would want apart from the big one.

I meant more being a newbie to the set up it’s already quite saturated as a market and lots of teams have stunning first XIs and excellent youth meaning there’s very little now available and about.

Other than punting on new players...

This is arguably exhasebated by those same clubs going for talents who would be nowhere near their first XI and are inferior to their youth talents yet because they have the cash they go in for them regardless.

But that is what makes this league so entertaining, at least for me. It's difficult in the transfer market, so when you do land a player or two it means a heck of a lot more.

Congrats to @2mufc0 on becoming the third team to retain the league shield.

Everton to maintain their one point lead at the top of the table with Darlington thrashing Ramosless Manchester United tonight.

[Flying Fox]

It's far too early in the morning to be sure but I think I only need another 4 points to clinch div 3

 

[Damien]

Everton to regain their one point lead at the top of the table tonight.

Manchester City is the only team to retain the league. Looks like Everton might not do it. Still 5 games to go though.
