Тэма: I.1

There is no point. Everything has already been set between group of people (you and people with which you have very good relationship) You wote for them in U19 and U17, they vote for you - plus your future assistant The Kop will vote for you as well.

Besides I prefer managing U17 (working with yong generation). Now we got the chance, so I run for U17 in other country.

Good luck with elections.

Mark,

I am replying here only because you posted to me directly.

For my part, I was making light of all the banter that I could see was doing more harm than good. Although, I'm pleased that a few members of the community take a real pride in trying to achieve what is let's face it a unthankful task.

In my experience of running NT's, very little feedback is positive. All the work that is done behind the scenes is rarely appreciated. I actually make a point of thanking people that I feel make the effort. - And, rarely is this reciprocated.

And it is on reflection that I am going to withdraw my application for the U17's. And for that matter any future NT involvement. It really is and as far as I'm concerned a thankless task.

And the comment, 'thanks for sharing'. I've been around the block for far too long now. I understand what it is that you imply. For me, It's a stock response and something I'm really not interested in pursuing.

I'm going to give the forums a wide berth from now. I have in my way tried to get people together and make the most of the game. Again, I really feel that it's just not worth the effort any longer.

I really did enjoy the tune.
I know nt manager can be a thankless task. I think that picking the best players and trying to win is a legitimate approach to take, I just disagree with burza1982 choices about what makes players the best. And especially when they are on his team and even more when he sells them benefiting from the Nt flag.
As it happens I want to build in younger players who are better trained in my opinion than the older high Ovr players.
Having the younger teams is really good news for developing future players

Well. Its playoff time folks, we're down to the last 4 already. The first round had some fantastic close matches, with quite a few won by less than 5 points. The lineups for Semis are Mavs/Seagulls and Fodder/Dragons. On both record and team strength, the sensible money would be on a Mavs/Fodder final - but will someone upset the odds?
At the other end of the table, the battle for the two 'safe' spots above the relegation games is hotting up - the Jays and Airs are there at the moment but there's a long way to go, with at least three teams breathing down their necks and BK Lopini putting on a late charge up the rankings with a winning streak.

Congrats to the Mavs and Fodder who make it to the finals this season, looking forward to seeing a great matchup between you two.

Fluff... its us again for 3rd/4th. How many playoff series is this now?!

yes they are well deserved finalists! I can't see our boys ever catching them up! But yes im very happy to be playing your team in the 3rd 4th playoffs lets see what kind of game you're playing !

Ha, good win for you tonight mate, very close though! Let's see what tomorrow brings

Yes we got off to a really good start and managed to cling on to the lead in the 4th! I reckon you'll put on a great show tonight and then it'll be back to the nest for a couple more games...

Congrats to the Mavs on a fine playoff win, Fodder took them right to the wire though!
Fluff, I reckon that's the tightest series we've ever played, I thoroughly enjoyed it! Great games mate.

Yes, congratulations Kop! You guys (Fodder) are really taking basketball to a higher level in our division and i love it.

Apollinaire what a ridiculous series. I can't believe we were both able to win two games on the road?! And i think most of our games came down to the last possession of the game. Great stuff.

So what are we all going to do with our money ahead of the next season? Buy some players? Expand facilities? Expand arena?

I also can't wait to see which teams will be coming up to 1.1!

Looks like Inter Lincoln and Tyskie New Malden will be rejoining us, and we'll welcome Tulse Hill Eagles for the first time. Should be fun.

I've spent almost nothing in the off-season, still weighing up my options. Could be time for a big arena upgrade so I can take my facilities to the next level. Or a massive Center. We'll see

Yes this season should be another good one. Hello Tulse Hill!

hmm taking in my last breath of fresh air tonight at the top before my double Dallas whammy ... yikes!

well the surprise inter lincoln player sale netted them about £500 million (before fees) i reckon! A shame i didnt have the money to buy one of those guys. All off to top clubs around the world!

Damn, I started my new job last week and have missed all the excitement!
