    Well done to real Madrid on the prem

    Special shoutout to Everton and Spurs who I taught were the best players, and would Not like to play them with a better team!

    Struggled with Dortmund at start but grown to love them, top 3 are lethal and hummels cleans up!

    Happy with 2nd! Looking forward to next season

    When will sign ups (if any) for next season begin?

    Took part and did quite well in a number of leagues and tournaments here for Fifa 10,11 & 12 and would love to get involved again.

    We will post an update in a week or two with a signup thread for new players to apply and a list of those invited back who can confirm they are taking part again. Anyone interested note you will be expected to play 3-4 games a week and not fall behind, do not join up and waste peoples time if you cant commit to this. Most people are on in the evenings from around 8-11 and at weekends.

    This season was the first we ran on ps4 so we were a bit more lenient when it came to people falling behind on games, this will not be the case going forward so again do not waste our time as organisers and that of those taking part if you cant commit to playing your games, it makes a mess of the fixtures and the overall league.

    The same applies to anyone that took part this season that isnt going to make more of an effort next season as a lot of you fell behind and didnt get games played. I dont want a load of excuses or ifs and buts, if some people can manage to play all there games or 20+ then there is no reason why everyone else couldnt either. Its up to everyone to organise their fixtures, not wait for others to come looking for them. The same applies to results, post the results after you play the game and dont be leaving them expecting the other person to do it or expecting us to add them all in at the end because neither of you decided to report the result at the time.

    As I said we will update the thread in a week or two but people need to make more of an effort going forward so that its a better season for everyone.

    Cheers, should be no problem getting games played, I'm around most nights and I've taken part in a few before and was usually able to get most if not all games played.

    I'll keep an eye out for the sign ups.

    Fair play lads for organising it all.. raging I didn't get to finish off my last few games as I had good chance of coming 2nd in the prem..

    Had no internet for 9 days thanks to upc so I can blame them on it haha..

    I enjoyed the league and not one bad thing to say about any player.. all played fairly and win or lose was always a gg message in my inbox

    Just one small suggestion for next league.. I was bayern in this league and didn't enjoy being them.. some players found it tough to score against Neuer and vice versa for me against the the big clubs and also felt game play was all hypered up.. what about a league of 4 star teams? Just a suggestion ignore me if I standing on toes or anything

    Well happy with this years league , Compared to when i used take part in the xbox 360 leagues I got whooped nearly every 2nd game but this season despite being relegated I thought i did well enough a lot of the games there were nothing in them , Yes i had some massive hidings mostly from the two lads who finished at the top Well done again to Axwell and Mr. Moon enjoyed 4 good games against those lads too

    Hopefully i can get a better team next time out , Arsenals defence is just shocking

    Wouldn't mind a change up of teams myself, I had a bit of a strop halfway through as I just couldn't keep up with the likes of real and that too fast. Maybe we could all post our level that way the weaker players players have a bit of a chance just an idea happy enough now just to go as is if invited back that is

    From my reading it will be seeded this time so shouldn't be as bad in terms of mismatches.

    Many thanks to Axwell and Mr Moon for organising a very enjoyable league. Never expected to win the Premiership so I'm delighted, even if it was with Real Madrid. Looking forward to getting last pick next season so you can all see how average I really am!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 933 ✭✭✭robfowler78


    I think we should just swap teams........

    I taught it was first had first pick no. If it's winner has last pick will defo make it interesting.

    I agree.. the 5 star teams ruin it a bit.. big selection on 4 star teams which would make it fair all around and nobody has any complaints


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 255 ✭✭Cjayses

    That's how it's been done in previous seasons. Not sure if it'll be done differently this time around. It's a fair system though.

    So when should this new league be starting up ?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,132 ✭✭✭Andy_rse


    I'd like to be involved with the next league set up. Any ideas if it'll be starting up?


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


    We will be posting an update in the next few days.

    Firstly those who are invited back will be given the chance to confirm their spot then we will open up a number of places for new signups.

    We will post a sign up thread and those looking to join can put there name down.

    Time wasters need not apply, we will be cracking down big time this season on people not playing games and people will be kicked from the league and blacklisted for not keeping up. So if you feel you cant commit then dont sign up and waste peoples time.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,485 ✭✭✭Berns


    Any certain time matches are played?? Can only really get on like after 10 or 12 most nights. But then prob at the wrong end of a number slaughterings in it -.-


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


    There is no set times you have to organise to get your games played between yourself and whoever you have fixtures with. Most people are on usually between 8-11, after 12 is unlikely if thats when you are usually online.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,485 ✭✭✭Berns


    anyone planning on streaming their matches btw? or not wanna give away tactics :D
