And four players who I didn't want anyone else getting blocked. A pleasing round so far. God bless you all!
The Third Redcafe Sheep Draft
- Thread starter Gio
- Start date
-
In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik @Rood and Imran @Annihilate Now! start with the good news by celebrating Manchester United Women's emphatic FA Cup win over Spurs at Wembley and the future of manager Marc Skinner.
Then it's the bad news and the ever worsening form of our Men with losses to Arsenal and Palace.
Finally the main debate - ETH Out now or keep him until the end of the season - if not longer. Are you Team Nik or Team Imran?
Submitted.
yeah I stopped caring somewhere around my third sheep, now I am just gonna go with the best unpicked player I have on the list. Sad thing is my Sheep XI would have no place for Mazzola.

I got Messi..... but it was typed 'Jonjo Shelvey' instead.
Come on lads, 2nd and 3rd round should be quick.

Holiday spirit, and all that.
I'm very happy abouty pick. It's been a while since he was in a draft, so I'm hoping to make a good use of him. Plus, I really like the player, so it should be fun watching his performances again.
With the exception of Dasayev (whose name I butchered last time anyway) our team is made up entirely of players we've never had before.
Plenty of research to be done

All submissions for the second round are in. And it looks like we've got a few managers going to be battling it out in the third round.
Didn't have time to do decent research, so I just went to the obvious one.

Meh
@Enigma_87 Excellent. You did go with our agreed 2nd choice yeah?
Cool, thought no one will block my backup choice...
Of course, mate. Very happy how it turned out to be, one of my top choices for this round.
Kohler has been blocked?
Was my first choice to partner Cannavaro.Rivaldo has been available this round? This has slipped my research as well. Top pick.
Not really, i failed.
Certainly worth going forNot really, i failed.
I've a sneaky feeling who Cal? picked as an attacking option
EDIT: Can someone update the full teams please.

I'd like to see the picture that made Rivaldo eligible too. Saw one of him with a moustache but that stache was shittier than what I'm capable of.Of course, mate. Very happy how it turned out to be, one of my top choices for this round.

Yeha dunno how rivaldo is eligible when eusebio isnt.
Don't get me started. Reasons were made clearer (not perfectly clear) in PM. Should have been clearer in OP. Think it's because the only facial hair Rivaldo has is on his upper lip whilst the other (block his name), trimmed or not, had more facial hair.
Rivaldo was borderline. But regardless it didn't matter as he was blocked.
The evidence presented on Eusebio showed a facial hair combination more akin to the Maradona effort that was specifically ruled out in the Criteria Post.
fu too bieetch
Look at Beckenbauer's, though:
Bumfluff ffs.
Shouldn't matter if he eventually was blocked or would be blocked. It's the difference between making another pick in Round 2 or having to go to Round 3.
Yeah, seems like the Palmeiras one is ok. It's better than G.Nev that's for sure.
Its not too different than nevilles though, which is banned.
Seems only a couple of managers with the criteria. Of course there's a tipping point where stubble becomes a tache, but the OP was pretty clear on good and bad examples.
ROUND SIX: THE TACHE
Any player who sported a proper moustache qualifies for this criteria. No fake tache, designer stubble or spotty bum-fluff Gary Neville style efforts count. All submissions should include a picture of said player during their career with their bushy moustache. The Sheep and Tache Committee will adjudicate any taches in the grey area.
- No stubbly prepubuscent efforts
- No fake taches
- No designer facial hair-cum-beard-cum-stubble
What doesn't make the cut:
You have 24 hours.
Like I said in another comment, the difference is that Rivaldo only has the moustache. Neville is going for some kind of Johnny Depp thing with his poor growth.
There's a far better Beckenbauer one than that. That's the problem - you and @Snow are operating off the wrong Kaiser and Best pictures.fu too bieetch

@Gio
What made it unclear was this bit here that people are arguing about

It wasn't really needed as the criteria was having a moustache and noting else.
No prob. It was Rivaldo, not Best. I think? Best had a proper one.
Yeah I think so as well. Basically Neville's is a poor man's Beckhams:
Bekenbauer has couple that are much better.

Beckenbauer has a better effort
How are we looking with this third round?
