Tight battle with US Postal and 0-0 draw, probably deserved for both teams, we were not able to score against their monster goalkeeper. At least Bianchi got a draw with HTC too. And as i have 1T4i and one more match, we could not finish worse than 3rd! Great

Haven't got a new talent in 31 days, the heck? I thought the chance on the 30th day was 1:1?

Great job kumazan to beat the HTC, too bad it is too late for us to catch them, as i thought our head to head match that i loose was the title decider. Bianchi is still breathing on our neck, i hope Astana will be able to hold them off in the last round against RabobankCT, but it will be tough.

61% possession against Euskaltel, yet still my team can only achieve a 0-0 draw thanks to a terrific display from there goalkeeper |

Congrats to HTC, deserved win for them. And great second for my Astana!
Thank you Fassa for drawing with mighty finishing Bianchi in the last round, they were the kings of the second half of the season...
What now?Is there some season ending?Do we continue with our teams and lineup and how is something like improvement of players done?

Wow, the season's over already? [/cynism]
Happy with 9th, especially because of the start I had. I really hope my talents will get at least one point, when would that happen?

Thanks for congrats. I hope we get some positive stat changes in the change report and we will keep our good shape in the next season. When the season ends? |

Well done to HTC - Championes!
Seems the change report will run automatically and after that I'll get the options to set up new season. Bit annoying how difficult it was to hit 15 development value with a lot of the players - Tadeo Riva, top scorer in the league ended up stuck at 14 all the way through the last 6 or 7 games.

Winning the last game 3-0 is nice ... except now Im 6th. Rubbish place to be if we're moving to 6 team leagues!

You should be able to set up a new season tomorrow as at the later night/morning, the season ends and with it, the player will get 1 year older and be better or worse or as good as before.
Can't believe that I just draw with Fassa at home I guess he used some special stuff
Congrats to HTC, I wonder who will take the 1st leagues cup and the toilet bowl (I guess it was named like that at the first X11 attempt here from SN) if it will be still called like this
Good that I will be the Team of the Month and will get extra money from that and not just from the 3rd place and Padoleccias 3rd place in goals (don't know if just the top goalscorers, scorers and MVP will get money for their team or also the 3rd placed top goalscorer)

Wait, 15? I thought that 10 is the magic border for improvement, i have six players on 14 and nobody 15 and higher
Edit: Fun fact is, that you dont need big money squad or top goal scoaring team to succeed. HTC has some top 5/10s in the points,goals rankings, but we Astana that finished second, dont have a man in top 10 in all goals,assits and points And we are both under 10millions with squad value (same for Bianchi and Fassa, shame for Puertas Mavisa, Manchester city of our league on fifth ).

Sent you a friendly invite, Avin. Maybe it'll make your players go over 14.
Every talent I have except one is over 14, best I have is 18.. So do all players with 15 or higher increase one point or what?

It's very random if your player improves, but 10 is the mark so under 10 it's more likely that he will decrease in strength and over 10 it's more likely that he will improve

I didn't want to pwn you all, it'd kinda kill the fun.
Seriously now, I missed some games, and also kinda lost interest in the final, the league was too long. Looking forward very much for the next season with shorter leagues. And good to hear the development value is 10!

I accepted, but i am not sure if the match will be played as the season will be over? Happy to hear one can increase also with 10+ not only fifteen.

Next year you will be much stronger, i fear your team even now. I am glad you did not pay so much attention

Change report has been made. Only 3 talents have decided to improve. Ugh.

Not a bad change report for me. I always aim for 15 as dev value as it tends to guarantee you an extra bar - and sometimes for young players will get you two (for eg. Fabian Cancellara has gone from 4 to 6)
I'll start off the new season tommorrow. First game will be next Sunday, so Wednesday will be open for anyone who wants a friendly.
We have 16 managers so looks like 2 leagues of 8 at this stage. 3 up and 3 down. If we get a couple of new applicants we'll make it 3 leagues of 6.
I'm not really thinking of a cup as just tends to slow things down - though if the majority wants it we can set one up. Having said that looking at the create season screen I'm not even sure we can have one unless it comes on the next screen.
