Match not working for anyone else?

 

[dontcloseyoureyes]

Yeah it's been noted on the bugs board.

 

[NZTailender]

Haha, epic fail from us vs Clapo. Think I might change my name, appearance and address to escape this embarrassment.

 

[Johnners]

Just getting some revenge, think you were ahead prior to this match

 

[Nate]

Why aren't you on MSN Clapo?

 

[Nate]

Anyhow, I am really looking forward to the new season, absolutely can't wait. Would encourage anyone new to signup immediately, this is the season to get on board.

 

[Johnners]

Why aren't you on MSN Clapo?

Am now tbh.

 

[NZTailender]

BT20 friendlies anyone?

 

[Nate]

Challenge me.

 

[NZTailender]

Challenge Team
Has already arranged a friendly this week.



I guess you're still in the BT20 cup thing?

 

[Nate]

...no.

Can we not make fixtures for after today?

 

[NZTailender]

Apparently not? Maybe you need to challenge me.

 

[Johnners]

You can only make BT20 challenges after your current match is completed iirc (if you're current match is a BT20 match).

Gun.

Edit: Haha, just noticed this press release from the Stockholm Gentlemen, who came first in my league:

Magical Ponies = Evil Ponies (23/01/2009)

For the second time running a magical, pony-shaped spanner has been thrown in the works of the Gents season.

Last season, a Ponies victory ensured a first-time-ever-lower-than-second placing for SG. This time around, in the final game no less, a loss to those Magical Future Pots of Glue has knocked SG below the auto-promotion line. Instead of gliding into Div.II on a bed of wine and roses, it's a playoff against the, frankly, scary Defenestrators. Crap.

Coach evilcorp was unavailable for comment, but is rumoured to be enquiring into 'equine extermination services' with the Sicilian Mafia.

Obert will go next season if we get a decent pull.

Warna still getting trained to NT standard. A level or two behind the rest of the spinners and all rounders. A lot are apparently still on three nets or like 8 nets. Oh well will catch them in the end.

Digana will get trained that high as well. He is also a level off U19 NT standard for next season.

 

[Nate]

Amped for the start of the new season.

[chaminda_00]

Have your players wages been updated yet guys?

EDIT:

Yeah they have:
253,288 -> 296,244

Interesting that Jeithoon only 146k and went up only 24k. Might flood his secondaries when I have nets free.
