At the end of the season, the top 4 in each divsion will play off against each other to find the true champion.
There are no deadlines this season as we have established, reliable players.
But if a feel a player is lagging behind with very little effort being made to play games, I will remove them.
Season Ends - 19th september
NEWS
No Flipping is away till 25th August.
Steviep922 is away from 4th September - 15th September
Dfowles is away 19th - 29th August.
mattwild is away 7th - 17th September.
A shame that there are going to be duplicates in the leagues, seeing as option E was voted for. :(
Ah well.. be it 1, 2 or 3 Barcalona's, they will all fall under the mighty red and white wave.

The re-draw is not going to get anybody a better team though :D
Its only the teams that they're giving up going back into the draw. I think Inter was the only good team not drawn!

I know, but the general concensus seemed to be that the top 10 teams are good, but the other 5 are a bit dodgy, and understandably people didnt want to get stuck with a crap teams over a 36 game season.

No idea. I may have to go with Liverpool as I supported them as a kid, or Newcastle as they were my 2nd team when Keegan was manager.

Sorry mate I'll have to give you some pointers another night. ;) I think they're great (second only to AC Milan) but I know a lot of people who don't get on with them. Depends how you play I guess.
Anyway, to those I played tonight thanks for the friendlies, but despite trying numerous formations and player combinations, nothing works! :cry:

Tell you what - you go back to Rangers and I'll stick with Liverpool ;)
Everyone I've played against just cuts their defence open with a simple throughball whether I play 3, 4 or 5 at the back! Unfortunately the game was made before we all found out that Carragher is the best centre back in the country :)
Gerrard is DMF/CMF/SMF but not OMF so can't play their best player in a dangerous role...OK, I'll stop the excuses, head back hanging :oh-hum: ;)

Good friendlies though Andy, just work out how to move your shots an inch either way of the post and you'll be stoming it :)
Sorry Scott was in the middle of a grudge match when you invited me, we'll have to wait for an official match before Roma v Roma :nuts: I'm intrigued to see how you've set them up...
PS. Want a ceromonial handing over of User Title tomorrow? :D Just so you can look after it for me for a season ;)
League A chaps,
I've got about 3 weeks before my 1st child is born, so you can imagine im rather keen to get as many of my matches played early as my time will be limited after then!
Feel free to add me (GT: SaintM) and send me an invite if you see me on. I don't tend to play many non-league matches so it may be wise to give me a prod on here or via email if we need to play. I'm able to play most week nights with enough notice.
Good luck for the season and I just hope that the mighty Saints can give you bigger teams a run for your money!

I actually preferred Chelsea to Inter in the couple of games last night.:thinking: I think it's important you find a team that suits your style of play in Pro Evo.
Thanks for the games, I was expected to get my a**e whooped but as I was saying I think the main difference was in the finishing with the rest of our play being fairly close.
Good luck in the league everyone. :thumbs:
Stevie - as SaintM wants to get his matches played asap is it ok to start before the 25th? If so then I'll try to catch you tonight if you are around SaintM. :)
Happy with Inter for a second season running. Thanks Steve, looking forward to the new expanded season. :thumbs:

Edit: He can't connect to me either. Weird.
It could be either of you, but i'm inclined to think its Serla as you've palyed for the last 4 seasons with no problems.
Try the following
run the Xbox Live connection diagnostics : go to your Xbox Dashboard, click "Settings"->"Network Settings"->"Connect". Once the connection wizard has completed (hopefully succesfully), press "Y", then "A" - what are the NT, MT and IC figures?
Basically its the NT number thats the most important. ideally these should both be at 1. But in your case one of your NTs will be at 2 or 3 which means in simple terms that you connection is more 'closed' than somebodies with an NT of 1 who will have no problems connecting to people.
Port forwarding, if configured correctly, normally solves the NT problem ... but what I would recommend you do is put the Xbox IP Address (available on the Xbox Dashboard->Settings->Network Settings->IP Address) in the router's DMZ. I assume you are using a router.
Sorry Sheepsking, it was probably me, I got two requests at the same time, I'm kinda new to all this stuff, my appologies - I'll check those settings too Stevie - thanks :thumbs:
Ended up playing Spenny8, here's the results:
(Bayern Munich)Spenny 8 3 - 1 Searla(AC Milan)
(AC Milan)Searla 1 - 0 Spenny(Bayern Munich)
Well..... Spenny 8 doesn't half enjoy a sliding tackle :lol: Joking aside, beat good and proper in the first game, don't know how I hung on in the second..... We both missed penalties in the last 10 minutes :doh:
Anyhow, thats me first points on the board, so I'm more than happy.
Cheers

Two very close matches. The roma home match especially had me sweating when a dubious penalty was awarded. I scored near enough straight from the kick off though to grab the 3 points.
My home match was much of the same, but with added crappy fouls by me. Sorry mate, a few of those fouls were totally pointless and from frustration. As it happens the overall stats showed I only committed two more fouls that you, but mine were awful and I feel pretty low about them.
Good close games overall, and scott deserved at least a draw from one of them.
Didnt realise the season had started, I thought it was the 25th. I could have caught you on too stevie.

Two close (ish) games. You probably had the best of both games really, but the second one went my way :) Think I'll have to have a bit practice with the Milan team.

You must be gutted about the first game. 3-0 up with 10 mins to go then 3-3 in the space of 5 mins.
Then, you miss a penalty (very dodgy hardly any contact) in the last min!!!
Second game was weird i found a lot more space!!
SaintM (Soton) 1 - 4 Sheepking (Barca)
Sheepking (Barca) 3 - 3 SaintM (Soton)
If it was not for this forums frankly crazy rules where you are ok to start a thread about masturbatiion over teddy bears, but you get banned if you say the F word, I would give my true account of these matches.
I was 3-0 up (to be fair that was flattering, 1 or 2-0 would of been more realistic) and 3 goals conceeded in quick sucession grabbed a draw. The 3rd was down to lag, but I think it was most likely my end as my Nildram connection seems a bit flakey tonight. I got a pen in the dying seconds, but like throw-ins and free kicks, penalty taking is a roll of the loaded dice. A dire last few mins for me.
My home match was a different matter.. It was as if all my players had been replaced by the under-developed brothers of the keystone kops. Some frankly idiotic goals were conceeded and I also had a taste of my own medicine when several times I was hacked down when attempting to make a break. I expect an apology shortly! :P
Very dissapointing to only get a point from them, but good games all in all.
EDIT: By idiotic goals, I mean the AI decided to make my defenders have the IQ of a sausage roll.

Yeah i noticed during my home game that you preferred to give away free kicks down the wings, so i decided to do it back as it stopped you getting any sort of passing going. Sorry!
I had 2 of the worst pieces of lag i've eveer had during that game where the game froze for a couple of seconds. Luckily neither were during anything important.

Sometimes the sheer frustration of the game means you need to bring down a few men. Even better when you only get a yellow and are the last man ;) I did this to Thedaddy but as he was winning 7-1 I doubt he cared :lol:

It is most odd.. Usually my connection is spot on.
I think it is a global problem to Nildram and not a great deal I can do about it really. If nothing else, at least it also happens to me in my away matches!
Hopefully it will settle down or i'll start banging heads at my ISP.

To say nothing went for Andy in these games would be an understatement. The only bit of luck he got was that an own goal was put down as mine instead of his keepers.
Thanks for the games and the natter mate!
A collection of the most bizarre and unfortunate goals I've ever seen. In the second match if my defence wasn't having a chat in your half, or the linesman having a cup of tea then the goals were bouncing in off any player in the box - the one where the keeper knocked it in was the funniest. It's also the first time I've seen the keeper collect the ball with his hands and then have a penalty awarded against him! :nuts: To be fair I didn't deserve anything from either match but the scorelines were a little harsh I feel. Well played mate. :thumbs:

Second game was close until the end. Could hear you screaming at the TV in the first.
I'm not surprised my shouting was heard all the way in Scotland. I had one of those nights where the luck of the draw was against me, 2 pens in the matches against you without me pressing any buttons to make a tackle! I did think you taking the pen with your keeper in the first match was taking the pee a bit though! ;) :razz:
I actually thought I might sneak it in the second game but Lampard (much as in real life) seems to need 5 attempts before he gets one on target!
Well played. :thumbs: Now you have your revenge for all those Links 2003 matches! ;) :cry:

It's a shame the game was released before everyone found out how good Cech, Robben , Terry and Lampard are - I suspect Chelsea will be a better pick in PES5!

Its true about Chelski. In PES4 they really are difficult to get right. They can be setup to work as a team i've found (very late on but it saved me from relegation :clap: ) and once they do you can score dozens (I scored 13 in my last 4 games). Main prob with them is this - crossing poor, strikers are poor and their ball control is poor so it can take a while or a bit of luck to score with them :(

Thats the 2nd game tonite i've lead 2-0 and thrown it away :mad:
Yeah, I felt quite bad when I was given that penalty. Rubbish decision, really. Did I score with two pens? I can't remember anymore!

Good games mate, i think alcohol helps my football.
John
I think you drinking alcohol affected my players. What was UP with my keeper in the first game? He was flopping about all over the place. And I hit the woodwork twice.
I'm beginning to hate PSV. Even Farfan, king of my Master League, isn't very good!

One "one on one" and then peno in the 87th min. Still can't work out for the life of me why it was given. Sure I challnged your player but that was a completely normal tackle :cry:
My fault for defending poorly I guess :)

Painful games for me, I haven't quite worked Roma out yet which showed in the final third, hardly created anything. Well played :thumbs:
Well, a nice confidence boosting start against my arch nemesis and bogey combo of TheDaddy/Man Utd - let's hope it gets better :)

Don't know what the problem is, couldn't connect to Slocombe either. Since I got my free BT upgrade on Friday it's been a nightmare :shrug: , terrible lag when I can connect both home and away. Will have a word with BT tomorrow.

Yep, initial game players wouldn't respond at all and after you scored the screen went haywire.
Nicked the first game at home.
And then positively robbed the second :nuts:
Could've been 3 or 4 down at half time.

Got a bit distracted towards the second game as my 8 month old son woke up and started to cry. I bet Alex Ferguson doesn't have that problem unless it is Rooney having a tantrum.

1. People who get free kicks outside the box and prefer to pass it into the box rather than shoot. Rrrrrrgh :razz:

Mine has to be when you press the pass button to tackle and then the oppent messes up and misses the ball, you run on to the ball and your player straight away kicks it away - you cannot cancel passes :mad:

Well played mate, you had me sweating in that first game when you changed your formation to more attack minded :D That second game just didn't go your way, the deflection for the second was unforunate. As for the 4th I apologise for that as just I was getting ready to hit the screamer I realised you'd called for a time out, which means you weren't focused on play....

Well played mate. You definitely deserved both wins.
I expected a real thrashing after you scored so quickly, and you duly delivered!!
I havent been taking my chances very well this season, hence why I've only got 1 win in 10 games. I had a good formation with Charlton the season before last and got some good results. Tinkered with it last season, to its detriment, now i can't seem to get it back to what it was!!!

Cheers for the games, it was very bizarre playing the same teams and I must admit I was looking at the players in blue for the first minute of the second game! :doh: You had the balance of play in the first game but I thought I might hold on at first. The second was very tight and could have gone either way.

Even though I created the lists to post in the thread I still had an old one printed out and wondered why you weren't picking Valencia! Why did you quit out of first game before it started BTW?
At least you managed to pull some long passes off with them, more than I can seem to manage.
One question for all of you long time Xbox pro evo players, when I take a long kick out I can never win a header against you better guys (I think Gunner won all but one last night) , what button should I be pressing to challenge for the header (both when I'm attacking and when I'm defending?) :?:
I thought you quit?? Not sure what happened there then..
The heading is all about timing, it is best to try and guess the header early when defending, and you then get in position and compete better.

Yes Cheers mate they were both good games, my palms were sweating in that second game, I thought I was coasting at 2-0 then you pegged it back and then again when I got to 5-2 I was thinking that I had a good bit of goal differnce for a change. Little did I know you would come back again, there were a couple of pinball style headers that had me screaming at the TV "flukey so and so" but that final goal from way outside the box into the top corner was fantastic and really desrved to be a winner.
Good luck in your other games.

I just can’t maintain any kind of scoring pattern in my games at the mo. I’ve scored 10 in one, 5 in another and 4 in another and yet at other times I struggled to score any and its purely down to the amount of shots I get that eventually one goes in. Not sure why I can score loads in one and none in the next? Damn annoying tho :lol:

Otherway round I think. I have got it written down at home.
I personally don't mind if my opponent wears a headset or not. I never wear one, late at night, because my voice would keep the missus awake. However if i play games early evening, I tend to where it.
Yea, I would use the Mic, but with my PS2 controller adaptor means that I can not plug in my headset without sitting about 6 inches from the screen.
