http://users2.ev1.net/~chkemp/ccnet/cmleague/ New season is about to start soon, so I might as well put up the new thread. You all know the drill. (btw players to improve from the old challenge still belong in the old thread)

Wing Back's is taking more part in the offense I believe. You have 4 players "officially" listed as Wing Backs: Lyttle, Lake, Kennedy, Jones - but as you can see that is not the same as the computer compare showing them better as Wing Backs than other non-wing backs.

Not as complete as I just did for BGM. It takes too much time. BGM had no stats for last year as I printed his textfile to late for it... so he got the special treatment. But list a couple of players you want compared and I will compare them for you.
Well I had asked for 150k +35k for 20 games + a 15% fee for the next sale. They now return with a final offer worth 210k (the one stipulated above). Reject or Accept. Can't negotiate more than once. Castor - Middlesbrough and Preston accepted. Rangers rejected - don't think they want to play you.
No luck. Nomar atleast give some input in what level of team you want to face, when and home/away. There is no such thing as a random friendly. I have to offer teams and they will accept/reject. Teams can also offer you a friendly and usually I just accept them without asking (unless you are in chat when it happens, or have said you have enough friendlies and don't want more) Also Pued Bournemouth offered for Novo too (they actually had a bid in before you) and when you offered they upped theirs to "match". Bournemouth had their offer rejected and increased it, and as you initially wanted to offer more I matched that bid. Bournemouth later had the new offer rejected too. All this time Wolves has not responed to your offer. But it seems Wolves regard him as an important player even if Novo has lost confidence in the manager.

http://users2.ev1.net/~chkemp/ccnet/cmleague/ updated textfiles - also moved up a bit after that - most notable incident since that (not that a textfile would have shown it anyway): 18/7/05 Marcus Benson damages his spine in training - will be out for about 9 months.
http://users2.ev1.net/~chkemp/ccnet/cmleague/ 30/7/05: the season is closing in fast - squad numbers are due... any # request put them here will probably start the season on monday or tuesday due to work tomorrow the season is two "weeks" away so we are in the last week of friendlies too - if you want a friendly, it can still be set for a week later, but having them any later than that is not recommended as it comes very close to the season on a side note - i have used 32 of my 40 players so far in the friendlies (4 games) - richard dell will probably also get a shot in the next friendly but the rest will remain unused
making a note to myself about CM: Quashie pace11 flair10 cre11 fin11 pas12 Also Heath can I get an updated finances screen.
Done Castor. BGM, you signed Michael Turner - Also I'm thinking about moving up, so if you want to play your friendly be in the chat ASAP.
