    Myself and Moiph are trying to play our scheduled game for the week but there's a "EAS FC ERROR" going on that won't let us play the league game. I won't be able to play the game until Monday if the EA servers continue to act up as I'll be in Italy until then.

    Just click the link in my signature and use the drop down menu to pick from Premiership or Championship. If you read the rules properly you'd know this!

    I can't seem to get any internet at home since 5pm this afternoon so won't be be able to play any games until it's fixed. Hopefully it'll be back when I wake up tomorrow but I doubt it. If not, I'll have to wait until an eircom engineer sorts it out some time next week :(


  • Registered Users Posts: 181 ✭✭youreadthis

    Just a note to everyone in the league - moving a player in front of the goalkeeper during a kick out hoping to block the ball down and get a cheap goal isn't sporting play. Anyone found trying to score goals from it will be sent packing from the league quicker than you can Andre Villas-Boas.

    Isn't it the player controlling the 'keepers fault though? I haven't done it but if I did I can't imagine it being 'my fault'


  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 10,462 Mod ✭✭✭✭Axwell


    We had an issue with someone doing it before in the league to win a game. If you deliberately stand in the way trying to block the kick out then its unsporting and not in spirit of the league. People are being told not to do it - simple as.

    Fair enough, doesn't concern me.

    I'd rather concede to a goal like that then the scabby ones who square it across the box to the other forward. Sooooo bad. :mad:

    I have no problem with that actually. The way I see it, it's my fault for letting the guy through on goal in the first place.

    Thats football and up to you to defend it though, its part of FIFA along with a load of other annoying things that have been discussed every season the game comes out with its new flaws and the old ones still being there unfortunately.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,345 ✭✭✭jamescd

    My first six fixtures now played. 2 wins and a loss from Gameweek 1.

    1 drawn, 1 win and 1 loss from Gameweek 2.

    10 points from a possible 18 so balanced enough so far.

    How's anyone else doing?

    Who are you playing as? I'll have to start devising my tactical plan now! I think I'll go 9-0-1 in a bid to end your 100% record!

    Just a draw will do!


  • Registered Users Posts: 181 ✭✭youreadthis


    Played 6, won 4, drawn 2.

    Need to stop dropping points every time it rains!

    Hes Bayern and plays 0-4-5 with Robben and Ribery on the wings, Gomez up front..probably will play defensive at the start and use counter attack to try catch you on the hop. The joys of playing clubs with him and having our in game abuse during our league games :D

    Won 4 and lost 2 so happy enough with that. Still have to play some tough sides though.

    Thanks for that Axwell. My 9-0-1 will easily deal with that. I'll have to leave Dezko on his own up front and just lump the ball up to him. The strategy will then be to shoot from anywhere, win a corner and score from it. Then go to 10-0-0 formation :D

    3 or 4 more days until the next fixtures are up. Any chance of getting them up Friday so those of us who have six games played can get cracking?

    Enjoying the league so far anyway. It's alot more craic than the head to head seasons and the standard tends to be higher (than Division 4 that I'm in anyway).


  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 10,462 Mod ✭✭✭✭Axwell


    The new fixtures always do go up on Fridays.

    By 10-0-0 I presume you mean what I call the flat back 11! :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,482 ✭✭✭brianregan09


    Well im doing alright i suppose won 2 drew 1 and lost 3 (2 of those could have went either way) So I'm happy enough so far, Will be looking to win some more games, and hungoverbunny sorry you lost so many i really thought that would have been me,

    And i like how Mr Moon is putting himself up there lol we'll all be out to you knock off you're perch as Sir Alex so once eloquently put it ;)

    Don't worry he will bottle it soon enough under the pressure and will end up getting thumped 5-0 :D


  • Registered Users Posts: 181 ✭✭youreadthis


    I always find attack is the best form of defense in fifa 12 (when playing normally and not abusing custom formations!). It's hard to keep a clean sheet even against someone who's awful. One corner.....bang a goal! Random penalty when you didn't even press anything....bang a goal!

    Though I hope I can challenge Mr Moon! :P:pac:

    LEAGUE NAME: Championship
    GAMEWEEK: 2
    RESULT: Chelsea (youreadthis) 4 - 1 Man Utd (Dufflecoatsunri)

    A pretty standard victory for me. Was the better side from about 8mins on but couldn't get the breakthrough and the half ended 0-0. More of the same in the second half. I took the lead a bit fortuitously when Drogba's header was saved and palmed out for Sturridge. Drogba got the second soon after and was comfortable until Hernandez danced around my defense to make it 2-1. But I pushed on and got a 3rd and 4th. Scoreline's pretty fair reflection of the game.

    I must say I love these reviews. Fair reflection of nothing. I pushed all out at 2-1 and had no defence is all. Good win but ease up on the self praise I'd say.
