Hattrick

Ferrioxide · 08-04-2005 6:54pm #1

Hope this is the right place to post this. Just wondering if many people have played Hattrick. If not it's a great online fotball management game and it's well worth a look.

Boro · 09-04-2005 2:23am

Actually there was a thread here that dealt with Hattrick. Cant seem to find it though. Anyway, quite a few people play it here. Im in league IV so i cant really give tips though

galwaydude · 10-04-2005 6:03pm

im in it too but only in league IV too.It takes a while to get the hang of it.Im a member now 5 months and still getting to grips.
What team are you?

Balfa · 10-04-2005 10:37pm

Hopefully my team, Ardmore Rovers, will be in div III next season

Boro · 11-04-2005 12:41pm

Im 'Jossestown Rovers' (73635)
Trying to get some decent youths, still havent had a good pull yet. On my 3rd season now and midtable

galwaydude · 11-04-2005 1:46pm

im Galwayman(281378), in my second seaso, have a s**t team but proberly take me a few more seasons to do well.
Boro want to play a friendly sometime, tipp verses galway

Draupnir · 11-04-2005 6:13pm

redsers rovers, top of the league right now, sunday week is first against second, winner takes all.

Boro · 11-04-2005 8:34pm

You're ardmore, 3-0 was a bit of an inflated result, we should have done better, ye will be promoted though, while some of us are in playoffs to stay in IV.13

Ferrioxide · 21-04-2005 7:01pm

Tony's Tigers is my team and the user-name is Jericho.

Boro · 22-04-2005 2:56pm

seen ya on the conferences there

Actually got a reasonable youth pull there after complaining about it (above)

- a 17yr old solid winger. Flogged him too. Might name my new stand after him!

Ferrioxide · 01-05-2005 12:23am

The 'ol Youth squad always comes good. Sweet pull for me this week.

Ruadan · 03-05-2005 6:30pm

2 solid keepers in a row from my newly eccilent y/s.

Boro · 04-05-2005 9:40am

Ive been on excellent ys for 8/9 months now and ive only pulled one solid and he is the only player with a TSI over 300 too!

Being a tad unlucky.

galwaydude · 04-05-2005 9:50am

how long does it take to make it excellent.

Draupnir · 04-05-2005 1:09pm

it takes a full season after it reaches solid to reach excellent

galwaydude · 04-05-2005 1:15pm

mine is wretched at the moment so it will take years to get to excellent at that rate.

Ruadan · 04-05-2005 3:34pm

2 years if you invest the max every week.

But solids can still be pulled from any level Y/s, just the probability changes.

the fnj · 04-05-2005 8:35pm

Got my team today and they have already been relegated, I play Draupnir's team this week but I doubt I'll be able to stop him winning the league. Teams called the Gomins if I'm in your league next season.

Took me a lot less than 2 years to get my YS to excellent - maybe 3/4 months i think? By 2 years do you mean 2 seasons?

Ruadan · 09-05-2005 2:07pm

sorry, took me 2 rl years, but for ages i didn't invest, then invested the min, i've invested the max for about 1 and a half seasons to get it from inad t0 excellent

Boro · 09-05-2005 9:52pm

Well the season is over - anyone on here do particularly well?
I got mid table in IV27 - did better than last season but i still need to strengthen
i let the game slip for most of this season, getting back into it now though

Ruadan · 10-05-2005 12:27pm

playoff vs bot.

going home for summer so the whole net thing will suffer, crappy dialup and and parents complaining about bills. *sigh*

galwaydude · 10-05-2005 12:31pm

Finished mid table too, only getting to grips with it now even though my team are s**t.

Boro · 10-05-2005 3:47pm

You training reserves in your friendlies Galwaydude? Or do you play your first team?

galwaydude · 11-05-2005 8:20am

playing reserves mostly now, my youth system rating has gone up too poor from wretched in 3 weeks so heres hoping it continues

bleachn · 11-05-2005 10:40pm

bleachn Rovers here: finished second this season... was at the last Dublin boozer, where I met feroxide, a.k.a Jerico...

Ferrioxide · 12-05-2005 5:47pm

That was a good laugh all right. Good to put faces to some of the names.

I've got a promotion playoff and I've had a rotten day on the transfer market I've been out-bidded(slightly) on both the Irish and Maltese U-20 keepers.

bleachn · 12-05-2005 9:58pm

I lost my match against the Langer, so I slid into 2nd for this season... am trying a new tactic of buying middies with weak stamina for the off season and then getting them upto excellent and see if I can make a profit. Then hopefully after my first full home game I'll be bettering my team...

Draupnir · 12-05-2005 10:06pm

currently saving to buy a mythical inner midfielder, gonna need about 2.5. have 1.2 and a bit of cash to come so it might be a dream come true after about week 4.

joe. · 12-05-2005 10:08pm

hey folks. do you lot consider the username plasticpaddy to be racist? gm-andycolu seems to think so.

Draupnir · 12-05-2005 10:08pm

really? are you being banned or just changing it?

joe. · 12-05-2005 10:11pm

signing up a new account. got banned just over 7 weeks ago so waited for the 7 weeks before i signed up. got an email back a few days later saying my username wasn't acceptable as it was not suitable for the younger players or racist. andy's still the irish gm i take it so all new applicants have to go through him. maybe i touched a nerve or something

Ruadan · 13-05-2005 1:24pm

nah, thats heavy handed, most of my cusins overseas would refer to themselves as plastic paddies (irish parents but the thickest Brummie accent you've ever heard etc.

GM's are weird like that in general, just pick a new one and sighn up from a different e-mail addy.

now to keep it on topic;
I'll do well in this playoff, but have to go home for the summer now, so theres a season where i can only log in every week or so, so i don't think i'll bbe gettinng my formidable keeper or striker any time soon.

Still, it stops me going mad in the transfer market.

Draupnir · 13-05-2005 5:54pm

the good thing about that will be that your cash will build up nicely and youll come back to a bit bank balance in one seasons time

Ruadan · 13-05-2005 6:02pm

unless i get bad injuries, a loosing streak, and my (for some reason) incredibly fickle supporters bugger off.

Looks like there'll be 2 bots in the league again for a bit so should be ok.

Ferrioxide · 16-05-2005 12:50pm

Won my playoff. Division 3 football for me this season.

Boro · 16-05-2005 1:24pm

Well, my squad is coming reasonably well. Should do better next season. Could do with some better trainees but cant afford them atm.

A mythical midfielder is gonna cost you anywhere upwards from 5 million with no secondaries. So u may need to keep on saving a bit longer for that.

Draupnir · 16-05-2005 9:46pm

i meant magnificent, oops!

bleachn · 16-05-2005 11:18pm

I have a question for the rest... I'm looking to buy a player, most of my squad are excellent and above, so I'm looking for an outstanding (+2 jump), and am wondering where people have found the greatest asset?

I'm a midfield trainer, so defence or forwards? 3-5-2 formation ususally, but 4-5-1 for friendlies and for some cup matchs, etc. Any ideas?

Robot · 16-05-2005 11:42pm

If you want to strengthen your defence then I recommend buying a good keeper. It has much more of an overall effect on your defence than a single defender does.

I recently bought a 4.5million keeper and my central defence jumped from world class to mythical. That was in a friendly where i was playing 4-5-1, so i've yet to see how good it'll be for playing 3-5-2.

Have a look at the raise in stats u get, my team id is (31872).

Boro · 23-05-2005 10:49am

Anyone get a decent first youth pull? I was hoping for something special to start the season - ended up with a 19yr old who will be playing golf soon.

erceefce · 18-08-2005 2:08pm

My team: CappellenFC (841230)

Somebody interessted in Dorian Gaschet (70441972) ???

peterod1998 · 09-02-2012 10:56pm

my team name is clon afc

Captain Havoc · 09-02-2012 11:00pm

Mother of God, this thread is nearly as old as I am. I played this for a few years, had a team in the Swiss League, Kilkenny City AFC, been a couple of years since I played it.

jamiecoins · 29-02-2012 10:00pm

just seen this thread joined up there let the fun begin lol
team tbay

18-10-2012 9:30pm

I am wondering if people using Hattrick site know that the site use real peoples names in a degrading fashion for amusement on their game, When one googles their name they find several hattrick posts relating to them.
I think this is unacceptable behaviour and should be stopped,
Yvonne

18-10-2012 9:37pm

Can I ask you guys please where do you get the names for your team members. A friend of mine finds her name all over google Yes her full christian name and surname used by Hatrrick and it is causing her great distress, they have refused to remove it and she now has to take action against them at her own expense . This site is supposed to be fun but for her its far from that.
I understand joke names or made up names being used I saw plastic paddy being mentioned in one of your posts but think its unfair to use indiciduals real life names in such a manner. She is very distressed and the hattrick people dont give a damn,

When you say her real name, do you mean it's been auto-gen'd in the game?
