Soccer Manager: Australian Championship 330 Banter

[Justin Bieber]

I lost and am down about 70-80k :'(. Now I have less than 500k :o. Gotta make some money back myself.

Hopefully I can sell a player or two and get some money. Only if other teams will buy them :P.

[reesbr]

Same.

[Boomz]

Sucks about Diarra but I can cover him for now... good start for me anyway ;D

[Hawka]

[Justin Bieber]

Hopefully a few loan bids can go through for me :). Get some depth into the line up.

Sad to hear about Diarra. Brought some spark to the game ;).

Coming up against you next round hawka 8). On Thursday morning it is.

[Boomz]

I'll take offers for all my players... just added some more to the loan list if anyone wants them... some on the transfer list too.

My loyal Sydney FC fans made cash for me. I'm up about 200k, almost back to the million mark  ;D.

Of all the people I thought would score though I didn't expect Jamieson. It was a close game though. I dominated possession but HP had more shots on target but Necievski (The Only goalkeeper I had because Storari hadn't arrived) Stood tall.

By the way HP, you can have Ryall but you're not getting Cole on a loan

My Iraqi import during the week scored 2 goals for me and got Man-of-the-Match :D

Very Dissapointed with my teams (Heart) performance, now i need to win my next match against cross town rivals Victory, someone is going to go 0-2 after that game. Not all bad news though, I have just signed Marco Breciano!

[CrowsFan]

What can I say CC? Perhaps I should roll out the cliche and say to win you need a star team (Brisbane Roar) not a team of stars (Heart). As I said I expected the win and I got it :)

Also HP I accepted the offer for Nichols, but then couldn't for Barbarouses cos you already have 3 loaned players

[BratPack]

I think I also made money because I was the home team with the highest crowd and also didn't bloat fat contracts. Only "Holy Diver" and Storari have contacts over 20k with me

[CrowsFan]

Yeah you don't get money from winning matches, just from home crowds, player transfers and a few other things

[Capt Cunners]

Yeah you don't get money from winning matches, just from home crowds, player transfers and a few other things

Why did i have a home game and lose 200k then?

[Boomz]

Wages CC... they were more than you made.

Well seeing as I was up all night, Found out results came in between 5am and 6am :P. Some shocking results came out of round 1 :o.

I'll post the results here and table in the next post.

Sydney FC 1  -  0  Gold Coast United
North Queensland Fury 1  -  0  Adelaide United 
Wellington Phoenix 3  -  1  Melbourne Victory 
Melbourne Heart 0  -  1  Brisbane Roar 
Newcastle Jets 1  -  4  Perth Glory

The first match was decided 2 minutes in with a Jamieson goal. BP's side did well to hang onto the lead. Strong signs from both teams. Keller from Sydney was named man of the match but could of been a range of players. This match drew the biggest crowd of the round with over 12,000 people showing up 8).

After a low off season by Fury, they kicked off the season with a win thanks to a Talay goal. He was deservingly man of the match. An injury to Adelaide's star player Baraja didn't help. Neither did a Red Card to Van Dijk 21 minutes in. Adelaide dominated most of the match but couldn't make it count.

Touted as a pre season favourite, the Victory stumbled at the first hurdle. A Jassim double put them away. A solid match up between the sides. The big signings of Victory couldn't gel together enough for a win on such short notice. But wouldn't expect them to stay down for long.

Shock of the round goes to Roar over the Heart. CC's Heart was probably the most star studded line up in this small league. But just like the Heart, didn't get off to a good start. A late Jeffren goal put them away. A Tommy Oar injury to the Heart will see him out for over a month. A big let down but still a long way to go until the end of the season. Wouldn't be suprised if they hit back hard next week in the showdown.

To go top of the Ladder, Perth absolutely smashed the Jets. Although Alex's Jets fought bravely, they were no match for Diarra and the Glory. Diarra of course is the best rated player in the league. Bad news is he will be out for over a month with a pulled groin. BOOMZ will not be happy for such an injury early on. Pellegrino is also injured but for only 2 weeks. Glory held on possession for 65% of the time. No suprise they converted the majority of their shots. An own goal didn't help the Jets cause either. Jelic gets man of the match although that could be disputed.

Hp would you be able to do something like this after every round of matches??? It was great.
