Sprogs, we can’t fuck you off now mate no matter how bad you ever get. You don’t just add to the game on the field, you add to the banter in chat too! And fair play you been bangin’ them in just as much as everyone else. Should be due another Sprogy spectacular though, it’s been a while 😉
I think good players are always a welcome addition. We got that midfield to fill up!
February 9, 2010 at 11:42 pm #74822LammieParticipantWell you can bin me from the team if you wanna and give my slot to someone else who adds more to The Ringers. To be honest it’s all getting a bit too serious for me and the fun element which is what it was when the team was first setup has disappeared like my goal and win ratio. 😀
February 10, 2010 at 8:04 am #74823XDCiNSANEParticipant🙁 I vote we dont replace, that would be shite, I dont think we need any more “star” players either, possibly bring schmiechel out of retirement though 🙂
As for Midfield, I’ve got that covered, I dont mind switching between roles between midfield and striker as long as they are not on the wings, being tall I dont have the stamina or pace to get past midgets in white boots.. I’m good for running in the box also for those powerful headers off space’s super crosses
Agree with Davey being upfront, can guarantee a goal with him there
I dont follow stats tbh so no idea what my goals ratio is, but I will add that I’ve not even played half as many games as you space or missed as many shots 😉 I’m one of the most consistant players and best midfielder, which cant be hard seeing as I’m the only one in it 😆 .. oh and I dont know how I got that info when I dont follow stats 😉
Speaking of shit kits, I vote another change, one that doesnt conflict with every other fricking team in the world, White and Black stripes and plain black is sooo BnW telly days! I vote purple like fiorentina or yell of dortmund or gold like the Classic team has 🙂
Do you still want last nights results posting, regardless of how shit we were, I think the added pressure of your missus catching you on xbox whilst she went for a bath had you a lil destracted mate 😉
February 10, 2010 at 9:16 am #74824sickofitallParticipantI told you before, you want to play in the kit of either KV Mechelen (Belgium) or Gallipoli (Italian Serie B).
Both have got distinctive kits.
February 10, 2010 at 11:47 am #74825XDCErratic-SpaceParticipantWill have a look at those teams sicko, cheers.
Insane: I had to change my comment to you in the last post as your goal ratio is actually pretty shit-hot mate. Think you’re 2nd or 3rd best in the team!
Oh yeah and post the results, for better or worse they gots to be posted 🙂Lams: I’m sorry if we’ve impacted your enjoyment of the game mate. And I’ll say now that no XDCs will ever be ‘fucked off’ from the team. But yeah, we do play for enjoyment but that stems from winning. We can’t help that and I’m really enjoying the competitive side of this game.
As for XCC Lee? He plays alright head-to-head but Be A Pro games are very different. NO way is that guy going any again though after the tonking we got last night! Give him a few more games but as I mentioned on chat last night, the problem is now that he’s gone too far the other way and doesn’t talk at all because of our comments on him talking. It’s all about the happy middle ground.
I enjoy the stats because it’s how you see you improving in the game. I like to know that I’m getting better (or worse as the case may be?)
February 10, 2010 at 12:24 pm #74826DaveyyWayParticipantThe only real set position is Wavy on the basis that his P:G ratio is through the roof, add to that he’s probably our least selfish player to boot!
Agree with Davey being upfront, can guarantee a goal with him there
agree with spacey though….wavey has to go up front
You guys speak so highly of me, it’s wonderful 🙂
Um, I’d agree with Spacey there. I’m a pretty decent one-on-one player, but I can’t play ANY for shit I don’t think (referring to my one and only game there when we got beat pretty bad. In fairness it was only 1-1 at half time, something happened and I just collapsed, blown over like a card castle in a gale force wind) – so I reckon XCS G Lee and Insane can sure up our midfield?
Because if there’s 7 of us it could be:
Ruislip: ANY (then Dan can play with himself with the back four)
Lee: LM (he can ‘set you guys up with my through balls’)
Insane: CM (midfield General it up)
Dale: RM (because he can score from just about anywhere)
Sprog: CF (provide plenty of banter and the odd 30 yard screamer)
Me: ST (need I say anymore? :p)
Space: LS (little man, big impact!)Kits – I don’t mind, I’d fancy playing in the pink of Palermo though, or Fiorentina yeah. Or even the green of Betis.
February 10, 2010 at 2:06 pm #74827XDCiNSANEParticipantLOL well I didnt know that about my ratio, cheers space (I dont understand all this Ratio malarky, I didnt get it in BF1942 so sure as heck dont get it now ha)
Anyone on tonight except Sprog? I know he’s playing pool
My mates hard on getting his stats up so he’ll be a good addition once his player is ready to Pro up

February 10, 2010 at 3:38 pm #74828AlzirKeymasterIs the rating an accurate reflection of how good or bad you actually play?
February 10, 2010 at 4:55 pm #74829sickofitallParticipantNo Alzir, it’s totally nonsensical. Everytime you pass/shoot on target yet get a plus and everytime you miss a pass/shot you get a minus. So you can run a game entirely, set up 5 goals from midfield and get 6.0 or you can touch the ball once in defence/attack all through the game and get 10.0.
This is a small gripe when compared to the fact that playing online corrupts all your single player games to the point that the game freezes constantly and you need to rest your xbox and start all over again.
I gave it up as a bad job about 3 months ago.
February 10, 2010 at 7:36 pm #74830XDC Erratic-SpaceParticipantI disagree a bit, I mean it”s not always exact but it does give a good indication a lot of the time how you’ve done.
FYI I’ve removed Lee again. I should have stuck with my first stance and not caved. It’s weird when someone returns who you kicked out, I don’t think it works. I’ve let him know this time though.
February 11, 2010 at 8:37 am #74831XDCiNSANEParticipantI agree with Space, it gives a good indication of where you are at, and how you are progressing
The notification is good because it tells headless chickens where they should be i reckon, a good addition 🙂
Why on earth have you removed him now? He only resigned a day ago, you make it sound like you’re dating him 😆
February 11, 2010 at 12:02 pm #74832XDCErratic-SpaceParticipantAnyone on tonight? Lost one/Won one last night.
February 11, 2010 at 12:07 pm #74833DaveyyWayParticipantI should be there. It’s not often I go through a night without scoring a goal… (but a turn in fortune always seems to follow after a dramatic physical change with my Pro. I’m beginning to believe that the ghost of Marcio Souza will not rest until he is returned :p)

As they say in Dodgeball, ‘It’s the hair, it’s gotta be the hair!’ 🙂
February 11, 2010 at 1:37 pm #74835XDCiNSANEParticipantI’ll be on, with my infectious cold! grrrr
