You should start thinking about how you're going to approach this match. Do you go for the win, but increase the risk of losing? Or do you keep it tight, knowing that a draw will do. That means you're less likely to lose, but also less likely to win. Also, you'll have to decide what to do if Cardiff are winning on 60 minutes. Do you increase your attacking intent, risking conceding more? Or do you keep it how it is, knowing you're losing the match, but hoping you can find a goal from somewhere? The same applies to the 75th minute, but the magnitude of the decisions are multiplied immensely.

All these questions floating about, you wouldnt want to make a wrong decision, as it could cost you. Just remember, I will beat Leeds.
Let the mindgames begin!
I don't accept drawing, I will as always be going for the win. There are no mind games because i'm not losing. ;)

Ah balls, forgot that you and Damo were little partners in crime in the Hummels transfer in the other league. Damo will no doubt take this match really seriously, and make sure he crushes me.

Applying for the moral cup now...

What Hummels transfer? That weren't me!

Damo should take this match seriously, he has an obligation as winners of Division 2 to put out his best team possible.

I think it's an RS/AN joke. You are the same person after all ;)

Of course I'll be taking it seriously. I wouldn't say I have to do it but I will do as it wouldn't be fair on the other teams otherwise.

I take it as a compliment now, AN is one sexy bastard therefore i'm a sexy bastard. Its a win, win as far as i'm concerned.

I'll take great pleasure in denying noisy neighbors Derby County there chance of a playoff place. Its typical of my season that it comes down to the last game, same with PSG too, feck sake :lol:

Thats a kick in the balls that I keep forgetting. Even if I do manage to beat Leeds, and if RS fecks it up, I still need tk beat two teams that placed higher than me in the league!

Well done he’s 13
Hmmm... so Chelsea loan Blackpool A.Johnson after they've all but secured the title with 1 game to go. A bit unfair considering the position Blackpool are in. At least wait till next season...

A typical Omar deal. I've had 1 of my loans recalled at a terrible point in the season, but i'm not grumbling nor seeking a replacement. Whats done is done, if Omar is that desperate then it'll be even sweater when he fails to get promotion.

Do you have the power to do that Maniak?
No, a game world cannot be deleted. It is deleted automaticaly if there is ony 1 team in it at the end of a season. If the owner abandons it someone else can pay and take over.

No English clubs made it to the final of the European competitions but cider's City side almost completed a great comeback after losing the first leg against Atletico Madrid 3-0, he won the second 2-0.

SMFA Cup final
Paris Saint-Germain - Atletico Madrid

SMFA Shield final
Dynamo Kyiv - Getafe

Next season's SMFA Super Cup
Paris Saint-Germain or Atletico Madrid - Dynamo Kyiv or Getafe

Next season's Charity Shield
Chelsea or West Bromwich Albion - Birmingham City

D-Day.

All the best to whoever the manager of Portsmouth is. Play 4-5-1 defensive please.

Portsmouth should really be resting players for the new season. They need to hit the ground running in Division 3.

Reading the papers, this could be your last match ever, Portsmouth. Make it count!

How many people have tried to snap up Oscar and realised I have had him since the very first day we began the league?

And Lucas Moura...

Ha ha ha ha ha

Scrumpet, if you don't make the automatic's...can I swap Gomes for Ter Stegen for the play offs?

Same rating and then I can sell Gomes.

Sweet, hopefully you'll get automatic and then this conversation becomes null.
