Sack CWP.

 

You were doing great until he pitched up.

Oli, CSW and CWP.

 

The new Taylor, McMenemy and Neal.

Hollywood players like myself agree with more subs. We only need a moment to produce magic

Tbf I played shite

 

To many stupid shots, I can't hit the target anymore

 

I did enjoy my pass round the back to assist matty though

 

We played ok as a team, just switched off after HT

 

We'll be back

missing the swan :)

Nah, my head's much shinier than his ;)

I'd say 2. Injury is only because the other guy pussyed out. We just need talk more and have better shape when subs come on

I also think 3 subs, but still only bring on 2 at a time.

 

Hard work last night, we tired. So often in the 2nd half one of us had the ball at back, and had no option of a forward pass, eveyone just looked knackerd. So we ended up losing it.

How does 3 subs with 2 on/off every 6 minutes equate?

 

I've always played all game so genuinely have no idea how you decide who's coming off when.

How long are the games?

18 minutes a half

The keeper obviously plays the whole 36 minutes.

 

your three best outfield players play 4 periods of 6mins and the other four outfield players play 3 periods.

Players 1 to 5 are your best 5, you'll know who they are.

 

Then play the six periods as

7 & 8 are your least good players and they only play together at the end of each half, when they're fresh and the opposition are tiring.

Traf for manager anyone?

Heads up lads, they were just the better team and can tell they have played together for a while. Early days yet, we'll be reet!

Cheers for that Traf, I was going to work it out so you've saved me a job.

 

The problem I forsee is that #7 will get a twelve minute runout ... and then be off for twelve minutes getting cold again before coming on for the last six minutes.  Also, #8 has to wait 12 minutes into the game before he even gets onto the pitch and then just 6 minutes later it's half-time so he's got to stop again.

 

In summer it's probably not too much of a problem but as we go into winter and it's freezing and pissing it down it doesn't sound too appealing to me.

 

I didn't think we were particularly knackered or unfit last night.  We just played a far better team than we've faced for a few weeks and we had two players struggling with knocks - the same two players who notched around 8 goals between them last week.  That's not going to be the norm.

 

Ultimately, if the games were 1 hour long then I'd be tempted to agree with the above strategy, but they're not, they're only 36 minutes long and no-one should be out on their arses after a 12 minute spell. 

 

We'll be reet.

Im not too comfortable with the best players playing the most. Its supposed to be a bit of a laugh. We wont be winning any league's.

 

last night, I was fooked, so didin't even come on at sub time, that will happen some weeks.

Also, you only have 7 next week anyway.

Booooo.  Defeatist attitude!

 

 

 

I agree btw, I'm not comfortable with anyone stood freezing their 'nads off because they're deemed to be worse than someone else in the team on that day.

The moment it starts to get serious & too competitive, IAMOUT.

Then don't play in a league.

 

leagues are serious and competitive by default.

It really is not that serious this league, plus I was just up for 10 of us having a kick about every week, if we got the numbers.

 

 

When we played last time, that was too competitive, and I ended up getting my knee smashed, I still struggle with it.

 

Dropping players based on ability is starting along that road, imo.

Bollocks, I have a kick about with my lad on a monday.

 

I am out the minute we start laughing about getting dicked saying its only a kick about.

 

Getting battered isn't any fun.

I almost lost my job when I got injured last time.

Thing is though, if you get nobbled it'll either be an innocent accident/challenge or because someone 'does' you ... not to do with team selection or whether we're taking it seriously.  From what I've seen of this league so far there are no teams that play with a 'win at all costs' attitude.  They, on the whole, seem like a decent bunch.

 

When I play I play to win.  I can't/won't play any other way.  Losing pisses me off.  (You'd think I'd be used to it but the day I'll not be arsed if I win or lose is the day I'll stop playing).
