hell yeah, haven't read yet how points are given, but I'm on top !! Bite the dust you non-world-champion-nation inhabitants! :D
by the way, I've got a feeling the real thing will be quite different... and that we're not in kansas anymore.

Well, I'm not sure all the quotes are true, or were not supposed to be ironic.
and I keep thinking Trezeguet is not good with our National team.
I don't like the way he plays.
This article is not objective, it's been written by an english guy.

he he I linked that just for a laugh, I'm not that interested in the matter after all ;).

guys check yr head to head tables.. some interesting draws!!!!
my first group game is against a pakistani team called "spain"

and atari.. you not in the proper league yet???

nouuu, I'm first no more :D!
I don't know what the hell are the head to head things, but I'm in a group with 2 english teams and another I don' even recognize the flag of


^^^

I'm so geographically impaired.

that's Saudi Arabia!
in small format, that flag does not look like anything, one has to admit

Yeah, I have canadian team called "portugal" in my group. I'll kick fuckingdickheadRonaldo 's ass !!!

 

that's the conclusion I came to after posting that post.
Actually it also reminded me of your username with those 3 semi-circolar-unidentified-shapes ha ha!!

i bit the bullet and got rid of my star player... distributed out the money to my forwards and defence. im quietly confident i can take bertrand down this time!!!!!

Well you already have.
The friendly game has almost ended and results will soon appear on page one, first message, as I'm not gonna type twice irrelevant rankings.
Awaiting for automatic substitutions to happen to grab 2 more points...

Anyway...
My grim results were purposefuly planned.
I now appear as a remote contender, when jico (#1) and nicfit (#2 thanks to Camoranesi) feel confident in themselves, slightly looking towards Atari and HECKLER...
They're gonna lose sleep...
Their marriages will break...
And I'll win.
Football is simple.

The Real Thing Tournament Sonic League so far, alphabetical order :

Ball in the Heather (nicfit)
eurofauxhemians fc (PAULYBEE2656)
George Best's Liver (Bertrand)
Glasgow Enculouz 2 (guest from outside the board)
Los niños del parque (o o o)
Tchernobyl Boys (HECKLER SPRAY)

With more probably there in the shade...

my confidence will expire soon, as my "actual" team is quite different from the friendly games one :D

Do you realise your national team won't play more than three games?

touché.

for nicfit and bertrand

T-shirts anyone?

ha ha those are great!
nice link too, looks like luca and franck really enjoyed filming those sketches.

I envy you, you'll get some good laughs listening to trapattoni's press conferences.

jackie o' trappatoni!

Same feeling here, regarding the videos.
If anyone wants to learn French, don't imitate Ribéry, he's a grammatical disaster.
Hope for Ireland Trapattoni speaks slowlier than Toni, or else...
Lovely shirts (England's second especially).

first irish trappa interview

the first words uttered to him by an irish journalists was " 'have you been welcomed well'"....... go forth and improve yr grammar with lessons from us irish inteelects...

english and how she is spoke!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

So today the friendly game is over and automatic substitution has applied.
Results are a draw at the top, and, well, here it is :

1. bolanarede (jico.) 36
1. Ball in the Heather (nicfit) 36
3. Allontoic Parasites (A Thousand Threads) 34
4. eurofauxhemians fc (PAULYBEE2656) 28
5. Bulldogs (atari2600) 27
6. Andersonville (Bertrand) 27
7. Tchernobyl Boys (HECKLER SPRAY) 25
8. Glasgow Enculouz (a friend of mine) 13
9. Obiku FC (pokkeherrie) 7

No draw between Bulldogs and Andersonville as I transfered more than Bulldogs. Hence, for consistency, Bulldogs are ahead.

As for the real thing, here's what we have today, alphabetically listed :

Ball in the Heather (nicfit)
eurofauxhemians fc (PAULYBEE2656)
George Best's Liver (Bertrand)
Glasgow Enculouz 2 (guest from outside the board)
Los niños del parque (o o o)
Obiku FC (pokkeherrie)
Tchernobyl Boys (HECKLER SPRAY)


That is only 7 teams. It could be better.
When I hear 7 and link it to music, it makes me think of 7 and the Ragged Tiger. By Duran Duran. Do you want this board to be tarnished? No? Then join us! I expect this reasoning to be quite efficient.
Girls didn't start a team. How sad.

There's always stereo sanctity :D

tight competition there...

true 'bout the girls, they fight for their rights and then waste opportunities like this.. ha ha :D.

Bring it on guys, make teams and join!

Too bad, I thought I could reach the podium with my dreamteam...

France was not that good yesterday, I'm worried.

Hey Nic, what do you think about Canavaro' scratch ?
Too bad...

He was AMAZING during the last world cup... too bad for the team, and I'm sorry for him too, even if he's not one of my fav player he's definitely a great element... I hope our forwards will score loads of goals to overcome the defence difficulties...
Not to brag about my national team, but our midfielders/forward are really good this year.
The field might prove I'm wrong, but their potential is really really impressive imho.
We've never been much lucky with great defenders (see the poor nesta, always injured during important tournaments).

Italian defense is ALWAYS solid as a rock, especially during the cups ( and the final World Cups...), don't worry.

but we have GAMBERINI instead of CANNAVARO this time he he ! fingers crossed.

From the Fiorentina, no ? I don't know him.

cmon guys.. get those teams in!!!

and seven and the ragged tiger aint that bad yknow!!

So we're eight now !

Ball in the Heather (nicfit)
Bulldogs FC (Atari 2600)
eurofauxhemians fc (PAULYBEE2656)
George Best's Liver (Bertrand)
Glasgow Enculouz 2 (guest from outside the board)
Los niños del parque (o o o)
Obiku FC (pokkeherrie)
Tchernobyl Boys (HECKLER SPRAY)

And there are some uncertainties regarding one of my forwards. Minor or serious injury? Will he be apt for the first game? Is it real, is it meant to trouble other nations? And will I have to change the line up to make huge bets right from the start?

You mean Villa? I'm wondering about him too.... but I haven't made a team yet (used auto-complete again). I'll start thinking about that now or i'll end up with 7 points again after the first match day!

BTW, thanks for giving the French formation. I could try and give you the Dutch one if you like, but there are still some mysteries that I'm not even sure of whether Van Basten himself knows what he's going to do about those.

My biggest dilemma right now is if I should include players from group C or avoid them.

Yes, Villa's the guy.

As for group C, I'm confused myself. But I nearly came to the opposite conclusion, as all will need to get out of there. I may try to pack a lot of them for the last game and drop players from safe teams then.

Up to nine now !
