    I don't think I will be sending Jones anywhere anytime soon. Sorry!

    Hmmm... but surely you wouldn't want to piss him off by refusing him a transfer that would take him to an EPL team, would you? An unhappy GK concedes more goals :)...


    ...ok, so I'm not totally evil. I wouldn't do that to the guy who hosted my baseball league for months.

    Damn, I wish I was a b*stard :(.

    To concede goals he has to play! :D

    (Not that he doesn't, but Castor is one of the teams that has a fight for the GK spot. 2 bad games and you're out. So at the moment the 2nd goalie (if you can call him that) holds the reign between the pipes.

    I am interested in moving to a team other than Watford.

    What jobs in England and Italy are available? (respectable ones only, of course... with stadiums of 40k plus)

    None.

    I will put in an application in for you when one opens up. Arsene looks to be in trouble at Arsenal. The board with an ultimatum for him. Get a result vs Liverpool, or be out!

    Sorry about this Heath, but I need to get another player.

    The goalie is getting to be essential. Requirements: Agility 13, Handling 15 minimums. Let me know what is found with regards to age, handling, jumping, reflexes, agility, and bravery.

    I also need a creative midfielder.

    I'm looking for someone with:

    creativity - 13+

    pace - 13+

    Passing 13+

    acceleration 10+

    OTB - 13+

    technique - 13+

    Also, he should be under 27

    Offer value, or over up to 25% for likely candidates. Once again, if the guy obviously sucks in all attributes but these, please don't bid.

    Thank you, and let me know your findings.

    I had a GK target for you that I will be trying to land for you. 22 year old Barry McDonald a takented Tottenham goalie. They will let you have him for around 3 times his value (700k - 2M).

    Only problem was to get him to agree to a contract, that was why I had to wait for a reoffer. I'm reoffering 2M now, and hope to get it accepted again, and that we can get Barry to ink a deal. If not I will get back to your new search.

    For the creative midfielder. There was a few out there. Found 26 with your first search, increased cre and pas to 15, and was down to two, offering 650k for Matthew Christensen first. Redefined the search to allow for 6/7 of the attributes, and in the age group 19-25. If you are fast, you will see this search in info2. No attributes shown, but they should all be talented and good.

    Also applied for Arsenal for you, so you might get your wish about a big club.

    Any feedback?

    Heath please put in applications for me for any Premier opening(unless it is a team thatr has already been owned by a human manager). Also apply for any national team jobs available.

    Thanks

    heath: all sounds good, I'll try to get on this afternoon to discuss this more with you. I really appreciate you helping me out here. I've really been enjoying the league, and am sorry I can't be on more often. My professors are evil - blame them.

    Thanks for the arsenal application.

    Oh, and one other thing: bench Ferrante in favor of Reid. I just don't feel comfortable with the bloke.

    Incidentally, slight training modifications:

    I want my training divided like this:

    Defense - all defenders;

    Normal training, but with tactics on INTENSE; all other categories on normal (except the train for new position, GK, etc, of course)

    Midfield - all middies, skills on intense, all other normal categories on normal

    attackers - all forwards and strikers, shooting on intense, all others on normal

    You got them both, McDonald and Christensen, so I guess I will bench Ferrante for Christensen then, or do you want Reid in too?

    Ok, I know I'm a lazy bum telling about the updates done to the site, but hopefully you all just recognize this and check stuff out every now and then.

    But this time I will give notice. :eek:

    Squad and Reserve screens updated, reserves even showing form.

    Heath:

    I need to do offer new contracts to my players who have expiring contracts.

    Could you re-update my page with the contracts page sorted by expiry date?

    Thanks, man! If there are any guys who I absolutely have to resign (essential players under 30), go ahead and give them what they want, minus 25% of the bonus they request.

    Merci, beaucoup my Norwegian idol.

    Hey Castor
    If I'm within 3 points of Derby on the last game of the season, don't you think you should maybe rest Novo and Hyde and Jardel? They must be gettin' awfully tired... :)

    I probably will not be the Carlisle manager at that time so It may not make a difference.
