Great result on the last day. Big 5-0 win. Very happy that WBA stayed up too, would have been gutted had they gone down. Onto the next season now.

They're play-off experts as well. Promoted from Division 4 in season 1 via play-offs and promoted from Division 3 in season 2 via play-offs too. Good luck.

Why are MK Dons getting all the love? Everybody ignoring the form of the Wednesday? :(

It's the first time in the play-offs for us, we've finished 2nd in both the seasons we got promoted.

Am looking to offload these players. Interested clubs can drop me a PM please.

Luis Fabiono. F(C) 90
Mohamed Sissoko DM,M(C) 89
Solomon Kalou AM(RL),F(RLC) 89

Might also sell 1/2 of Ramsey, Marin or Rodwell if the offer is very good.

You'll be lucky, Rodwell & Marin aren't getting much game time IRL.
Yup but they're both young and at Good clubs. The Rating can only go up. Specially in Rodwell's case. He's too good at 22 to not have a good career, be it at city or elsewhere.

Rodwell will drop 1 imo. Little gametime and has not played well at all.
Naah, dont think so. He's at 88 and should be okay for now. Why the idiot went to City though i dont know. Needs to move for him to develop though unless the incoming manager has plans fot him.

Oh for fecks sake.

Form of the team between games 22 and 30 cost me badly. Terrible run of 2 wins in 8 games (or 3 in 11 actually looking back further) cost me second place to Bolton. Tempted to do a Wenger and slaughter the SM league for staging the play-offs 2 days after the end of the season, my key players were all fecked!


Unlucky JB, you deserved to be in the final after this season's form.
Cheer mate, will just have to aim for the title next season!

Play-Off Final results
Stoke City 0 - 0 Portsmouth (Portsmouth win 3-1 on penalties!)
Bristol City 4 - 1 Watford
Crewe Alexandra 1 - 4 Aldershot Town

Congrats to the winners and commiserations to the losers. Probably a good thing for me that Stoke didn't get promoted after beating me 6-1 yesterday...

Portsmouth manager hasn't logged in in 19 days.

Do I need a gold account to manage in the CL? How much would it cost at a minimum?

Totally changed my tactics to mirror MK Dons and I think the class of my team shone though.

Goals from Falcao, Cavani, Essien and Dempsey puts me into the final.
Sneaky! :lol: After I took the lead I was pretty shocked to see the likes of Falcao & Cavani to be leading your attack, I hadn't checked out how good your team was. Bit gutted you didn't get promoted now!! :(

Oh and feck you MK Dons. Bastard stealing my transfer.
Come on, you just walked the league, it's not like you need him!

Something tells me a few clubs are about to get a mass influx of cash. Player values have just incurred a "squad stash" tax. Add 70% on to each player lads and milk these rich feckers dry.

Think he's saying that due to the new change in loans, we'll be selling quite a few of our players and getting more money, so he thinks people should hold out for more for their players (I don't seem to have any luck buying from other teams in the league apart from you and Middlesbrough anyway).

Ahhhhhhhh makes sense. I love a good transfer, more entertaining than the leagues. Don't think I've ever done badly from a deal either.
