A hearty hello from your NT coach. (For today at least.) And also for those of you staying in ii.2 a familiar rival.

You should all have your draftees now. I hope you drafted well. I'd like to refer you to this post on the England forum: (http://www.buzzerbeater.com/community/forum/read.aspx?thr...)

If you should happen to have drafted a player with allstar potential or above, please contact Zeus, England u21 coach with this details.
If you draft a player with MVP potential above, contact either Zeus, or me.

Both of us can be found here : (http://www.buzzerbeater.com/country/14/overview.aspx)

Just click on our names and send us a message with details of your player. A link to the player would probably be enough for a first message. We'll reply as soon as possible.

I invested zero in this year's draft and am delighted to have got a guy who will fit in well with my other trainees. Sadly he's 19, so he won't be an U21 prospect, but he could definitely get to a stage where I could sell him for useful cash.

I hope so...

Although you have a tidy team which will almost certainly be in DII next season, so I will pay you the respect you deserve and send out some of my starters.

I don't want to go to DII, it's so lovely watching money raising so quick in division 3:-)
I was hoping you may set reserve squad and I will have chance.
Elliot already 53min. Jez 58 if they play to long against me you will risk falling their form ...

Good luck in the next round! That wasn't exactly how I wanted my minutes to pan out, but you drilled me on tactics and GDP...

I should have known better than to expect to be facing a team today. Twice this season the Monkeys haven't turned up to play me. The last game of the season, heading into the playoffs, when minutes played is vital, and my opponent doesn't show up.

Coincidence that its happened both times he's been due to play me? Yeah sure. Potentially screwing my game shape, possibly affecting training for the week. Inconsiderate at best. Sabotage at worst.

Probably shouldn't post when I'm annoyed but I needed to say it.

You still get minutes allocated for training/gameshape and the enthusiasm boost from TIEing don't you?
I don't think anybody has ever conceded against me...

Look on the bright side, at least your best player didn't have a chance to get injured.

Starters automatically get 36 minutes. I'd have expected less with garbage time, which would have been a huge plus heading into the playoffs.

In fact, your bright side isn't that bright. In walkovers there's actually an increased risk of injury. The game still takes place, you can actually watch them, and because of the team being full of lucky fans, in fact, there's a vastly increased foul rate. Since injuries only happen on fouls, there's a corresponding increase in the chance of injury. So maybe I should consider myself lucky.

Sorry, I misunderstood your remark about the injury. Shame about Elliott, a man I obviously remember vividly. One of the best in this division, and that's a terrible time to lose him. I think we all fear that happening.
