Khandallah Steam Engines lost 0 - 1 too. Not a good night at Homebush Road.


Incredible stamina. No shame. Yellow Fever.


Phoenix fans. We have to win them over one fan at a time.

Hard fought first game, Gore C. defended well in the last 7mins (+3mins injury) after going down to 10 men.

Injured one of my top attacking mids which gives me a bit of an early headache, but he's only out for one game ... I think

Sold out stadium and a week before I can up the amount of seats, got to get onto that and get some money in the bank!

Awesome - never knew that there was more than 5 conditional orders.  Will have to sort that tonight.  I'm afraid I'm going to let the YF side down this season, you won't be seeing many results from me - straight back down I come.

Very happy to walk away from my first home game with a 1:0 win, and it looks like I need to increase my stadium capacity as well.

Was down 5-0 after 27 minutes to a stacked B team, all 4 star players, fair to say I'm a bit out of my league. Didn't have my goalie (since when do goalies get injured????) and then had a man sent off whilst playing super attacking, yet only ended up losing 5-1. Could have easily been the biggest rout in TM history.

Next game is against Peow, looking forward to it.First of 4 this season seeing as we are in the same division for the YF league as well. Our teams look pretty evenly matched on paper so it should be a close one, unlike the games against Tegal!

Been some big-ish scorelines in our division. The league restructure hasn't been kind to some.

it's been pretty kind to my top team - we are playing against a league full of B teams, should mean a top four finish at least.

Wowsa, how are you up 4-0...I am attempting a ram-raid here, 27 mins gone, up 1-0, 1 shot for us, 6 for them...

don't really know to be honest! I was expecting a close game but my team are just kicking arse. My brand new 4 star striker has barely been involved too

 The  way they make you scroll for the extra tactics is pretty poor UI design :\

They should at least make the scroll bar/button more prominent.

There's no B Teams in my league! :(

Wow, smashing Peow is a great result, at least, I've always found him tough.

I'm 1-0 up - looking for first win of the season. New striker scored which is hopefully a good sign for the season.

Was starting to look like my attacking change of tactics was going to backfire, 2-1 down until the 80th minute then 2 late goals to scrape home a 3-2 win, up the Falcons!

Well somehow I have managed to stay unbeaten, went up 1-0 even though they were all over us, and then it was more even after that, then we scored a second, and they went back to bossing the game, but could only manage a single goal. Pretty happy to be unbeaten through three games 4 goals for, 2 conceded.

I won my lower league games, but two losses - ouch :\

The first loss to Redvers United who always seems to get the TV games??

Next game up against Elite FC... I need my players to get back to winning form!

TV games is a calculation of adding the opponents league positions together, then finding the lowest aggregate and that is the league game. So 1st vs 2nd will always be the TV game.

Sad day for Peow FC thought I would be more competitive. Going to have to pick it up if I want to stay up.

Peow, my opinion is you are going to leak goals all over the show with that keeper you're playing. He doesn't have hugely high ratings, and only 2.3 routine means he is likely to struggle... In my opinion...

No shame in getting hammered by Sky Valley. We're a team on this rise, as shown by our sparkling performances in Div3 of the the Fever League last season!

Well it's working!!!... I had my first away win and clean sheet last night - the new 'keeper must've done the job. Kept them out with ten men too.

Very nice, mine bucked the previous trend, 1-1, 1-0, 2-1 and now 6-2 (More goals scored and same goals conceded as all previous games)
Also was my second home game, and my expanded stadium saw 10473 fans turn up, adding another 250 seats (Pretty much all I can afford, though continued TV matches will help)
