Hattrick

[Matt the Shrimp]

Quote[/b] (Bob Cratchitt @ Aug. 24 2004,10:06)]Cheers Birri not sure if I have the strongest team as i have yet to beat MtS' SUFC or GNH's GNH Utd. Played them a couple of times when I was VI side and lost every match.

Maybe, but you've come a long way since those days Chairman Bob!

Our three sides are, I'd say, very comparable... in terms of star ratings, I scored a 33.5* during my last outing, whilst you scored a 32* and GNH a 30.5*.

Of the three of us, however, you're definitely in pole position to get up to Level IV first! Nice to see you're leading an illiterate Wet Hamster as well... Bolelyn, indeed!

As for me, I'm in a pretty shockingly hard league, and I'm unlikely to promote for this season or next season - the top two in my division are 37.5-38* rated sides... so at 33.5*, I'm still some way off.

Still, I'm working at it... I got my first "solid" rating under the new ratings this weekend for my central attack (playing 3-4-3) and a 4-0 away win, so things are looking very rosy for me right now, coupled with a bank balance which after this weekend's gate should be approx. £400K in the black. Just need to keep training my kids, and flog them for a fortune towards the season's end...

Lower TSI, though.  And Carlos got a hattrick in his first game for you...

Jings - you'll want the moon on a stick, next!

Matt

P.S. Good luck with the two youngsters you're selling... alas, at the mo I'm a selling club, not a buying one!

 

[Birri]

lol I was joking about carlos matt am very happy with him. Check out this side Pegasus Hammers (55636) the bloke is giving up due to his mrs is about to drop twins and he has a very good side in a fire sale. Shame I have no dosh

 

[Barmy Army]

I tend not to worry overly about TSI, I use the tryout option in Hattrick Manager and Mr. Maeran is to be my leading striker. I can't find Carlos' attributes to compare numbers though.

Good spot. There are some fuggin' amazing players there... alas, I expect them to go for far, far more than their current valuation...

Phillip Johnson (35562872)
this guy is only 17 and a Passable PM only 10K at the mo but I cannot bid anymore

There is a Hamster fan bidding for him someone either buy him or force the hamster to pay over the odds

Deadline's not until Friday morning; I'll make sure I'm in early then to monitor the situation...

I was just reading a post on the BDF website on this subject that might help.

Quote[/b] (blues_r_best @ Aug. 23 2004,14:26)]And Matt, a bid has been placed.

Sorry mate - you were outbid (and only by someone who paid £76,670, to your original £75K bid). I would have reminded you, but I forgot he was up for sale today, I thought he was up tomorrow...

Matt

 

[Matt the Shrimp]

OK, it's the summer sales down at Roots Hall this week... I've decided (been advised) to keep training my strikers for at least another season, so there's no point in me hanging on to my other youngsters. Oh, and because of that, I'll be playing 3-4-3 all next season, so I might as well let go of one of my three wingers, since (effectively) I'll only have one winger in the side at any one time.

So, here are the players for your delectation:

Brad Lockhart (14542875) - £35,000
27 years, passable form, healthy
A controversial person who is calm and upright.
Has inadequate experience and poor leadership abilities.

Nationality: England
Total Skill Index (TSI): 2 080
Wage: 503 £/week
Owner: Southend United Football Club
Warnings: 0

Stamina: passable Goaltending: wretched
Playmaking: inadequate Passing: inadequate
Winger: passable Defending: weak
Scoring: passable Set Pieces: inadequate

Brad's a 3* winger who is extremely versatile and boosts midfield experience levels. Altho' he seems to be a "Jack of all trades", he's a v. high passable winger, as reflected by his TSI... so £35K is a bargain.

Tim Byrne (39474358) - £10,000
17 years, passable form, healthy
A pleasant guy who is calm and honest.
Has disastrous experience and wretched leadership abilities.

Nationality: England
Total Skill Index (TSI): 510
Wage: 368 £/week
Owner: Southend United Football Club
Warnings: 0

Stamina: inadequate Goaltending: disastrous
Playmaking: passable Passing: poor
Winger: inadequate Defending: inadequate
Scoring: poor Set Pieces: poor

He's 17, he's a passable PM, he's £10K. Nuff said really.

James Kilgour (38479821) - £5,000
18 years, solid form, healthy
A pleasant guy who is temperamental and upright.
Has disastrous experience and solid leadership abilities.

He's 18, passable stamina & PM, and solid leadership - a snip at £5K.

Michael Siegfried (29467547) - £2,500
20 years, passable form, healthy
A sympathetic guy who is fiery and upright.
Has disastrous experience and weak leadership abilities.

Speciality: Technical

A potential wing-back trainee, and only £2,500... a total bargain!
