    Yes..basically as games appear you play them. Makes it easier for Fowler to keep league updated instead of people playing anyone whenever they want. If it gets to Gameweek 3 say and there's games outstanding then obviously you just play your matches in whatever order up to that gameweek. Make sense?

    I'm getting a few practice games in against one of the top UK manual players btw, he beat me 2-1 yesterday, if you get that skilled dribbling down you're flying in this game. Ganso and Neymar gonna be seeing a lot of ball.

    Good game to open up the new season against BPK' Santos. Took an early lead through Cavani hammering home after some nice link up play with Lavezzi and Hamsik (thats the new super trio this yr:pac:) But BPK hit me straight away with the equaliser through that tricky ****er Neymar. Quality goal (although ****e defendin) taking it down the wing and slotting into the corner..

    1 all at ht but chances galore in the 2nd half, both of us hitting the post and missing a few chances. Couldnt believe your keeper saved my chip dragging it off the line:eek: Looks like EA have finally sorted out the retarded keepers this year:pac: GG and fair result in the end. Wont be going on a 5 game winning streak this season :p

    Good start to season 4 points from 6. The boy Cavani came to the fore again after a shaky enough start. Topher will probably admit that his Zenit never got going.. gg

    Gameweek 3 fixtures are up. Also I adjusted the minimum number of games to be played by the end of this week as it seems more fairer especially with everyone probably away last wkend.

    http://bml.leaguerepublic.com/

    Good to see the new lads have all a game played. However philt27-Liverpool in the premier has yet to get a game played yet. PM sent..

    Dont want to go kicking anyone out as weve fuk all numbers anyhow but these leagues can drag on if everyone doesnt commit so lets try and get a few more games played before, deadline 10 November.

    two good games with alanc2003, both finished 1-1. got lucky in first match scoring in the 87th minute. went 1-0 down in the second match and then should have went onto win but cant finish chances in manual. need more practice!

    Not according to this thread http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=2056422038 Make sure someone posts the result. From my playing I've gathered winner posts result.

    Finally thought I had Zenit working how I wanted against Liverpool last night, took an early lead and seemed to create chance after chance, let down by some poor finishing on my part. Liverpool seemed to get stronger as the second half wore on, and hit the post with 5 to go, queue me switching to a defensive mindset to try and see it out. Agger levelled deep in stoppage time with a cracker of a header almost from the edge of the area. :o Zenit stormed down the other end and hit the bleedin' crossbar with the last move of the game - think I'm destined to get through this season without a win! Great game man.

    Last year for disconnections, we played out the remaining minutes of the previous game with that score before connection was lost. However ya DONT have to wind down the clock this year, but WILL have to give whoever was winning their advantage...

    But if the person loses connections 3 times, the points and 3-0 win goes to the opponent.

    Just wondering is it possible to play games before they're scheduled? I have a bit of free time at the moment so it would be nice to get some games out of the way. As long as it suits the other players, of course!

    Also, I don't think the Juve-Napoli from GW3 game has been recorded yet. I posted it in the Championship thread a few days ago :)
