Groovy. I'll join up tonight when I get on. No idea which team I'll go for yet! It should make it more interesting restricting teams to 4 star and below.

Btw the best way (imo) for league members to play the games is for everyone in the league to add themselves as a friend on Live, that way it's easier to see who/if anyone is available and online (and on FIFA!) for a game.

I signed up tonight, picked Newcastle who are a 3 and 1/2 star team. Never played with them before so should be interesting

Thought they where more than 3 1/2. Must be as they are coming down to championship to join us

[BlindAct]

I joined just now, picked Wigan Athletic, not my favorite club but they do have some exciting players

[sdb123]

Is it English teams only?

If so, I'll be Portsmouth.

If not, I'll be Lazio.

lol well suffice it to say, I won't be focusing much on defending whilst playing - bearing in mind Newcastle have no defence

[Munkey Boy]

I'll have in if that's OK - Man City (just to be original!).

EDIT: I thought City were a 4* team, but it appears they may not be with season updates. I'll have West Ham if that causes a problem.

Joined the league now, how many are you going to wait for? Just wondering when it's going to be starting up, that's all.

[Pooon]

If your playing Munkey i guess it'll be rude if i don't join. I dunno who i'll be, i'll have a look at what teams are 4* as i've no idea (i take it 4.5* star don't count)

No sorry 4* or below

Had first league match tonight

Nottingham Forest(michaelanderson) 1:1 West Ham(Monkey Boy)

This was a close match i started off with a goal early and managed to hold off a goal by munkey boy till about the 65th min Was a very close game and both played well

[PinheadedMike]

Another match

Newcastle Utd(benmango)2:0 Nottingham Forest(michaelanderson)

What can i say just a one sided match really Ben had one cracking goal from just inside the penalty box and another one right next to net a bit fluky this one But all in all a good game and lucky i just lost by 2

[benmango]

Aye mate, was a good game. Fair play to you for playing as your home team Nottingham Forest (2 star) when the team I picked, Newcastle, are 4 stars!
That said, you played well and although I probably had more shots, etc the two goals I got were the result of a bit of luck!
Good game pal, looking forward to the 2 rematches

I think I was lucky to survive the early onslaught you gave me! Good game tho

No problem When picked your team will add to list

[thelegendofyrag]

I'll join tonight if i remember

[oasismark]

oasismark Man City 0-2 benmango- Newcastle

Ref was well dodgy, i was clean throuigh and got brought down, not even a card.

Man city was 4 star when i picked them, but just befor ethe game it showed 4 1/2, so the squad update must have changed it, i still lost though so does it matter?

yeah shouldnt be a problem but you did take team monkey boy was gonna be

[BlindAct]

Thought benmango might've posted here but I guess not. Anyway, my Wigan team played a draw against his Newcastle team, 1-1. Are we dpomg a tpå gpaøscprer list as well? Not that it matters, I only scored 1 goal with Heskey hehe.
But the teams we are playing with are not updated from live season. Seeing as I had Heskey and he had N'zogbia, in case someone didn't know.

I'll happily swap teams if i can, dunt really bother me.

Im a swfc fan, but playing as a 2 1/2 star team will be embaressing.
