Guest Heneage Posted June 24, 2010 Share Posted June 24, 2010 Pretty sure I nabbed Preston MOM from the ref like. You guys have a solid core, Nut, Rocker, Burnip, Pilko, Dave, Venkman all of whom have played very well for NOFC. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Disco Posted June 24, 2010 Share Posted June 24, 2010 As a current neutral I'd say those teams are wildly unfair at the moment. Does look a little bit one sided at the minute tbf. Although Disco has form for moaning about team selection. I'm not even on a team yet man. I know, and you're already whining. I do love a whinge like.

Guest Heneage Posted June 24, 2010 Share Posted June 24, 2010 I do honestly think those teams are quite even. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yorkie Posted June 24, 2010 Share Posted June 24, 2010 Yeah, i've got to say, i genuinely can't see many problems there. Like i said previously - ideally the teams want to be as even as possible, it simply makes for a better game of football. And even though i've only played in one, i know they've all been really good, tight events. It'd be a shame for it to descend into a ten-niller. But, if a few more people pipe up saying it's unfair, we'll look to change it. At the moment though, i think we'll stick. As i've said, there's still some really good players who are currently unattached. Some unknown entities too. One issue that i think is quite a pressing one, is our distinct lack of keepers. In an ideal world, we won't have to round-robin the goalies and it'd be a shame for someone who is really an outfielder, to get lumped in goal. If we don't get a volunteer i genuinely think the best way to do it is to search for ringers. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slim's got better with every single game. Gorilla's a good goalie but i think he wanted to play outfield from now on. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
MKSC Posted June 24, 2010 Share Posted June 24, 2010 Oh, so we seriously have no keepers then. At least it's fair. If we can't get ringers in then it'll have to be a rotation plan agreed between the teams. I'm not get stuck with it again. Also, 30 mins ET followed by penalty shoot-out in the unlikely event of a draw at 90 minutes? I love a good shoot-out me. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yorkie Posted June 24, 2010 Share Posted June 24, 2010 No one's saying you're gonna get stuck with it, Colin. Think we'll just go with penalties. We've only got it for a couple of hours. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

SEMTEX Posted June 24, 2010 Share Posted June 24, 2010 My problem is basically this... If I was to name the 5 best players, I would say they would be... (in no particular order): Stu MKSC Heza KenDahl Nut I may not be right, but this is my perspective on who the best players are, and it's 4:1. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yorkie Posted June 24, 2010 Share Posted June 24, 2010 Not that it's fair to start doing things like that, at all, the standard of players throughout both squads is generally high. There is - in absolutely no way - an elite collection of players who are lightyears ahead of the rest, in terms of quality. However, if everyone is in agreement with you, we'll look at another way of doing it fairly. But i still think there's some exaggerations going on here. I want the teams as even as possible, just like everybody else. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Heneage Posted June 24, 2010 Share Posted June 24, 2010 Don't know if naming who's the best players is a good thing to do. It's a slap in the face to half your team tbh. What would you suggest we do instead then Burnip? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yorkie Posted June 24, 2010 Share Posted June 24, 2010 Ref sorted now. Gonna cost in the region of £20, meaning that for the whole event - it's gonna cost peeps around £2 a head. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

What would you suggest we do instead then Burnip? If it's a slap in the face to anyone, they needed that slap for being such a pussy in the first place. It's fact - some players are better than others and those 5 are who I think are best. Does everyone think they're the best player or something? Precious.

Aye, not sure I'll be able to put up with Stu's inflated inflated ego Ha! Like I say I just think it's a bit disrespectful, especially as he's only named one of the red team in the top 5. There's no real stand-outs in the NOFC team, every player has their strengths and weaknesses. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

SEMTEX Posted June 24, 2010 Share Posted June 24, 2010 It's funny how opinionated people are about England/NUFC players, yet as soon as there is any chance of causing offence within your 'mates' it's deemed disrespectful. What do you want to do Burnip? Genuine question. This is a democratic society. I've no problem with the general process of just lumping people in teams, I just think the teams still need tweaking to make them fair. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seeing as we bagsied MKSC, Heza and QBG in the first place - you take one instead. And we'll call it quits for now. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Heneage Posted June 24, 2010 Share Posted June 24, 2010 Is there anyone else we should contact to play? Looking back there was loads of lads in the first one I haven't seen since. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
MKSC Posted June 24, 2010 Share Posted June 24, 2010 Burnip's gone a bit John Terry on us here. Calling for the inclusion of certain players he thinks are better than the ones currently on his team. FWIW, I have to agree that some players are clearly better than others but that will always be the case. The home team were well short-handed at the SJP game but it didn't turn into a rout. The teams above seem closer matched to me than they were for that game, but we don't want a few weeks of moaning about the teams being unfair so let's just get it sorted. I've got no problem with playing for either side no matter what the teams are. You won't find me complaining, just bollocking my team mates if we are getting trounced.

Disco Posted June 24, 2010 Share Posted June 24, 2010 Disagree with you here Col, the teams at SJP were lopsided in favour of the away but these ones are a fair bit more IMO. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
