[BTB]

All hail Roonmastor!

[Cuttooth]

I can't believe that nearly happened.

[Memento Mori]

That was far too close.

[abcd]

What a game!

[Benzin]

Well done the Roon!

[teh bork]

Assist for the winning goal.

[BTB]

WE ARE STAYIN' UP, I SAID WE ARE STAYIN' UP!

8/5 - Caliban is moaning about not being played. I've promised to play him against Wigan. Will he deliver? Will he strawberry float.

Solid 6.8. That's only the SECOND (joint!) lowest in the team, my best performance for months.

Solid 6.8. That's only the SECOND (joint!) lowest in the team, my best performance for months.

Yeah I'm pretty sure Wigan's first goal was all your fault though.

[Starbreaker]

Maybe that was due to my lack of match fitness.

P.S. Play me against Arsenal they're one of my crunch teams, this is not a request
pps please

[Dolph Wiggler]

Roon

Surely staying up was our goal in the first season anyway, time to push for a European place now.

[Cuttooth]

How does this work? Do we go onto another season?

I'm thinking of trying to play around four seasons of this, as long as it holds everyone's interest. Since almost every player in the squad has a ridiculous amount of potential, GRcade should be title contenders / European champions by then. Hopefully I can build the training facilities and get some staff in now.

18/5 - Atlético Madrid beat Olympique Marseille 1-0 at Aviva Stadium to win the Europa League
- Caliban and DarkRitual are called up by Ireland for matches against Wales, Scotland, Macedonia, and Colombia

19/5 - Northern Ireland call up Kanbei, Scotland call up Corazon and blackoutHERO

[Count Nood]

Well played Roonmastor, your first goal in particular was quality.

Surely staying up was our goal in the first season anyway, time to push for a European place now.

Indeed, but I think we should get rid of some of the deadwood such as bork.

Yeah sell our best right back. We should get rid of Wiggles and Nood instead, because one's awful and the other one keeps costing us points with his gooseberry fool penalties.

Wiggles is going nowhere!

I think I can be forgvien for a couple of misses considering how many points my successful penalties have brought in.
