anyone want to play some exhibition games to prep for the next season?

RobVarak · Post by **RobVarak** » Thu Jul 06, 2006 1:45 pm

I'm on after 10:00pm Central most nights, and I'd be happy to play one either tonight or Friday. Just shoot me an invite anytime, Jack.

Jack, I'll probably be on XBL tonight sometime between 8-11PM EDT. If you see me on, send me an invite!

Just so I'm clear... this thread and the sports gaming nation pages (standings and such) are the only two places I need to go to handle my league business?

Just wanted to make sure I'm not missing anything.

... and anxiously awaiting my redraw!

Atxj · Post by **Atxj** » Thu Jul 06, 2006 5:24 pm

Redraw for me please.

Zeppo · Post by **Zeppo** » Thu Jul 06, 2006 6:18 pm

And so the 2nd draw results:

FabulousBastard - *Dynamo Kiev

AtXj - *Toulouse FC (Garonne)

Zeppo - Manchester City

I'm taking these guys while I have the chance. Man. City is is!

You other two. . . good luck. It isn't pretty, but who knows you could get lucky in draw #3! Of course, you could do worse in draw #3. Maybe.

Let me know if you are sticking with the above or want to take your chances with the finality of draw #3.

Zeppo · Post by **Zeppo** » Thu Jul 06, 2006 6:25 pm

One more thing; Pigpen, FIFA, you guys have to let me know what stadium you want for your home stadium. Teams whose real stadium is in the game play their home games there, but those (like ours) whose stadium is not in the game must be assigned some place to call home.

You can change stadiums in between seasons even if you stick with the same team. I will make a stadium choice myself soon.

Pigpen wants the Home depot center and Real salt lake united city fc.

Zep,

I'll play my home games at Westfalenstadion (Borussia Dortmund)

FifaInspected · Post by **FifaInspected** » Thu Jul 06, 2006 6:55 pm

I have no gaming plans for tonight.. If I go on i'd be open to a preseason match.

Don't say I didn't warn ya! I tried to tell you, I tried. . .

I had not heard of that team and thought it was a cake mix actually. I've done a little research and posted some info below.

Dynamo Kyiv have participated in all the USSR and Ukrainian championships, and won both more times than any other team. The club's best perfomances were in the 1970s and 1980s, it was at this time that the USSR national football team was mostly comprised of players from the club. Dinamo Kiev won the Cup Winners' Cup in 1975 and 1986 as well as the European Super Cup in 1975, after two games against Bayern Munich. In 1999, the club reached the semifinals of UEFA Champions League. These victories are associated with the name of Valeriy Lobanovs'kyi, who played for the club in the 1960s and later became the club's long-term head coach; he was also the coach of the USSR national football team in various championships. He died in 2002 after a heart attack that occurred during a game. Dynamo's striker Oleg Blokhin is the USSR national champion's all-time leader scorer with 211 goals, and has also made more appearances than any other player in the championship's history with 432 appearances.

Oh... well, maybe I'll... hmmm...

FORGET IT!

Redraw please. (maybe that could be the name of my team)

Atxj · Post by **Atxj** » Thu Jul 06, 2006 10:26 pm

Redraw.

Zeppo · Post by **Zeppo** » Fri Jul 07, 2006 1:44 am

OK here you go:

AtXj = SV Werder Bremen

FabulousBastard = *Feyenoord - De Kuip (Rotterdam Stadion)

Zeppo · Post by **Zeppo** » Fri Jul 07, 2006 2:08 am

And so. . .

The first half schedule is up for the First Division only.

Since FabulousBastard's team, Feyenoord, has seen action in the league already (in season one), Jason will need to do some adjusting before I can get the schedule up for Division Two.

The deadline for the first half of Season Three is Sunday, July 23. Please do your best to get your games in by then. Post here if you are having trouble getting in contact with an opponent. Extensions are granted liberally, but must be requested.

Make sure to use the proper game settings including the correct home stadium for each season game. Refer to the first post of this long thread to check the game settings. The 'season' setting for Season Three is Summer.

Don't forget that in addition to reporting the game into the league module a game report must be posted in this thread by one of the players, and must include the goal scorers, any players booked, and any injuries. (Don't worry about registering injuries into the league module.)

Note: AtXj, pigpen and I still need to decide on stadiums.

Good luck, and play fair!

Zep...St. James Place

Atxj · Post by **Atxj** » Fri Jul 07, 2006 2:55 am

Zep, Old Trafford please.

Post by **Jared** » Fri Jul 07, 2006 7:37 am

I'll keep Monaco, but may not be able to get any games on, depending on when they hook up internet access here.

FifaInspected · Post by **FifaInspected** » Fri Jul 07, 2006 9:39 am

Yea Baby! The complete schedule has been posted. It's time to drop the ball!

I'm looking forward to meeting you all soon!

Zeppo · Post by **Zeppo** » Fri Jul 07, 2006 9:49 am

OK we're all set. The first half schedule is up for all Divisions.

Remember, the deadline for first half games is Sunday, July 23. Please get your games played and reported by then. Extensions will be liberally granted but must be requested.

Make sure to use the proper game settings including the correct home stadium for each season game. Refer to the first post of this long thread to check the game settings. The 'season' setting for Season Three is Summer.

I am going to use the Rasunda (Stokholm Arena) as my home stadium this season with Man. City.

Questions regarding the league module at SGN should be PMed to myself or to Jason.

Good luck, and play fair!

FabulousBastard · Post by **FabulousBastard** » Fri Jul 07, 2006 10:35 am

Thanks Zep...

I'll be around most of Saturday if anyone wants to get some games in (div 2).

I'm not on AIM (brad999hall) all the time, so PM if I'm not online.
