Have we cleared 2 weeks of injuries now then? Or the 3week injury clear too?

just the 2 weeks, we missed injuries out for the first week of fixtures

Kamran.

Very briefly. Pondering our possible deal. Would you do it for Rio?

Thought the opening ceremony was good. Not normally my thing but quite enjoyed it.

Instead of Bonucci? Yeah.

I missed it last night as I was out. Thinking about watching it on catch-up. I've seen the Mr. Bean and the Queen parts though, apparently they were the best bits.

FOREIGN OFFERS UPDATED

If someone could do mine in a similar fashion to those I have made that'd be great.

Pffft, have to sell Parker for 5m then

Absolutley no point in having good backup then if you have to sell for pishhy prices.

Why not? It just makes things more interesting mate.

Could you do some offers for me please?

posted on 28/7/12

Ye but the values could at least be fair.

Especially when I'm having to sell a player I'm happy to play and did for 3 weeks while others get 1m/2m offers for players they'll never play.

I draw them randomly. I do two for the first-teamers then two for the rest of the players to make sure that managers aren't forced into selling a first-teamer. The unfair prices for reserves are to try and persuade you to sell the first-team players to make money more valuable and proceedings more interesting.

If interesting means annoying and unfair then aye.

I'm obviously not going to sell my first team players for cash and will be very surprised if you do.

Why is it unfair?

comment by Hodgey (U1271)

There are plenty of players available in foreigns still that are on the same level of quality as your reserves. I can think of two quality DMs you could get for £8m or so, which is just a week of predictions + the Parker sale money.

posted on 28/7/12

Because as you said the unfair prices for reserves are exactly that

comment by Hodgey (U1271)

I wouldn't say unfair, just deliberately lowered.

It's the same for everyone so in that sense it isn't unfair. You could even profit off some other people selling their reserves, just like some could profit from you selling yours.

I disagree personally. As if I thought that I'd simply release them then replace them with players in foreigns that I thought were better.

Fair point I suppose but foreign offers were popular with the majority of managers last time around and so they'll remain for the time being.

posted on 28/7/12

It's not the same for everyone though thats part of my point, as my lowest offer was for a player in the PFA team of the season last year. Not a Perch, Sivok, Jenkinson etc.

Sorry for being annoying, will stop with the rant against foreign offers

For now

It's fine mate. If everyone has a problem with it then I need to know because I can just ditch it.

Hodgey could you check releases when you get a chance mate?

Been a while since I did releases for this league but I think I got them right, if not please feel free to shout at me
