The LU Hattrick Team Owners Thread

[chileman]

I haven't missed one of my friendlies as yet and have just accepted the friendly against NWR....do we have a points table somewhere of how we are going?

 

[chileman]

Next weeks matches for the LU Cup.....
week 6: 14th January 2004
04:00:00 Heathcote – Hills Not played
Avalon – Bye Not played
Bribie Is. – Rockhampton Not played
CKA – Incredible Holc Not played

 

[Mad Dogg]

I’ll work out the point table tomorrow. But first I need to know what the result should be for the two games that weren’t played (Avalon vs Bribie and Holc vs Bribie)? A 2-2 draw sound good?

 

[Mambo]

I know for a fact that one of those games had a challenge sent which wasn't replied to, (Holc vs Bribie) so that game should be a 5-0 result to the team that challenged (Bribie). The other game, as far as i know, neither team challenged, so that game should go down as 0-0.

Good Work Mad Dogg. We can edit that table as we go. The Hills vs Heathcote match this week will be crucial

 

[Mambo]

Just made a couple of new purchases.....I shall unleash them on chileman :twisted:

I'll be ready for you NWR :twisted: unfortunately I lost my best defender on the weekend though for 3 weeks! :roll:

 

[Mambo]

Funny that you should lose a defender. I just boosted my back 3 with 2 new signings and they are in good form. Bought myself a goal keeper as well. My defence (hopefully) will be 'solid' (pardon the pun)

My personal thoughts are go for Allen and Doel. Doel is a middie who doubles as a good back up wing back. Allen makes a great second string keeper. He's saved me a few times when my first keeper got injured. The other two guys are both capable 2* back ups in their respective positions. Honestly, this kind of value you won't find anywhere else in hattrick. Basically all I am doing is covering the cost of the transfer listing. Anything more is a bonus.

 

[chileman]

I'll be fielding my youth anyway NWR....so it should be a good match!

 

[Collateral]

Whats your Youth squad up to Chileman?

Mine just turned solid so now i've got exactly 1 season to wait until excellent...I've only got 1 good player from my youth squad so far, Ed Cgarles Solid Keeper, value $714,000.

Sydney City Crew V.50

Shocking season so far but i'm looking foward to the next weeks and seasons with my new strikers.

my youth also just turned to Solid, ive pulled a reserve keeper from the YS and i may use him in the friendly to see how he goes

 

[Mad Dogg]

My youth squad turned excellent about 7 weeks ago. I got an excellent scorer in the very first week, and since then they've all been crap.

Well Mad Dogg after that freakish 6 week run of youth pulls, i think you deserve to get a few dreg players to equal things up a bit ;-)

 

[Mambo]

You have to make people think they are getting a bargain, thats the key. Putting a starting price below player value is a good way to get something out of a low level player. Better a little bit of cash than sacking the player for nothing. My players above, Brendan Harris and Vance Mahony are case and point.

Vance has got good skills in a few areas, but he has a starting bid of $200,000, well below his actual value. People get interested and start to keep an eye on his sale, hopefully resulting in a bidding war right on the sale deadline.

Brendan is older and his form is down. His starting price is $4000 because, while having passable defending, he has some factors against his sale. Some lucky soul will pick him up really cheap and play him into form, and have a great 2.5* defender.

Correction - it was a 7 week run. ;-)
