I'm not home at the moment, but I'll be online this evening, probably around 5pm GMT. If you guys are online, we can play our matches then. If Sunday evening is better for you, Cornballer, I can get up early on Monday morning as well.

holy shit there are like half the games left to be played. why sign up for the league if you don't care about playing your games? surely there wasn't some sort of misunderstanding about what being in a fifa league entailed? afaicr we never coerced anyone into being in the league either, although sometimes it certainly feels like that with the most apathetic among you.

Alright Shinobi, StrikeVillain and Koji, let's get these games done, I don't want to have any extra games to play next week. I'm going to be avalible all day except from 5-7. Just let me know when you can play, and I'll hop on.

And remember that you guys are the home team in all of these games.

Btw, did you get the roster update yet?
Yeah, I did.

FIFA fucking sucks. N.A, you played a lot better, but the first and third goals were utter bullshit. I played the shittiest game in a long while, too. Fuck.

To be fair I would probably have scored 2 more if you didn't keep taking my players out when they were clean through. :lol

So where has N.A. run off to? When are we going to play our match?

I'll keep checking whether you are on up until 9pm GMT.

Houston – San Jose 2-1
Shots: 8-11
On goal: 4-6

24' K. Kamara
69' R. Johnson
78' B. Ching

N.A: I only did that when I was 3-0 down and more than royally pissed off. :D Plus, no red cards = completely fair. :p
 
That was perhaps the worst penalty kick in the history of football.

Good game, Tf. I thought I did enough in the 2nd half to get back into it, but I couldn't finish at all. Familiar story for me - I'm the king of the shot stat. :lol

Fixed. I took the ball away, your guy ran straight at my defender and the ref suddenly remembered the brown envelope your manager gave him before the match. Justice prevailed. :)
 
Let's just pretend that I missed the injury time PK out of good sportsmanship. :lol You had a tough call on my goal, too. I think the FIFA AI is adapting and finding new ways to suck these days.

had my first league disconn when we froze at the half so we played two first halves to complete our game. damn defensive autoswitch seriously let me down in the early going leading to my defenders jumping way up and leaving wide-open shots on the table but thankfully settled down to keep things reasonable in the "second half"

i took a glance at the stats during the first game so these should be fairly close to reality. do you know who your scorers were?

NY – CHI 0-2
Shots: 9-10
On goal: 2-6

Scorers:
McBride

Is not that hard to send a pm or an xbox live message to set something up. I think some people wait for their opponents to try to do everything

It was a good game, and i thought i could play without having slept for a few days but in truth i could've lost by a few more actually and i paid for not matching the 5-4-1 formation and playing 3-4-3 and my defender's lack of speed really got caught out. . .FUCK! now i really gotta win against Villain. . .:lol

Good game, that was a really intense game. I suspected that I'd have to play defensively against you but started out with my 4-4-2 anyway, but your quick goal made me switch to a 5-4-1.

I think I should use that formation more often, since I'm only really good out counter-attacking.

Houston - Dallas 0-1

That pretty much ends my season. I guess it wouldn't hurt to play FIFA more than just for league games.

I'll check if you're on late tonight, otherwise I can probably do it tomorrow.

N.A. - let me know when you want to play our match. Not sure if we can find a time during the week due to the time zone differences, but this weekend is ok, too.

If I get a lead it builds my confidence and I play better but if I concede an early goal I fucking go into panic mode and suck badly

i do the same shit.

THE PRESSURE IS TOO MUCH!

RSL 1 - 2 Chivas

SOT: 4 - 8

Goals:
Razov - Chivas
Galindo - Chivas
Movsisyan - RSL

GG, CG. We both couldn't do shit for 95% of the match, then the scoring started in the 105th minute.:lol We were both bitching about the passing so much. You deserved the win though after hitting the bar twice and missing on a breakaway.

My stout defense is crumbling and I still can't score very much. It wasn't a problem when I was shutting everyone out. :p

I couldn't hop on last night, but I should be able to play around 8pm PT tonight. Are you still going to be on at that point?
