Des Tiny Posted June 28, 2008 Share Posted June 28, 2008 And the 2010 World cup winner is Brazil beating Argentina 1-0 in the final, Argentina played from the 10th minute with only 10 men as Gonzalo Rodriguez was sent from the field. It took the Brazilians til the 82nd minute for Adriano to break the deadline, and now he has received a contract offer from Casale... Hey no harm in asking right?

We have 8 in Italy and only 3 others, but it is because of problems in the other leagues.

aaberdeenn Posted June 28, 2008 Share Posted June 28, 2008 I guess third time worked a chime. I looked through the holiday game I have saved on the 29th June before I took over and I've managed to track down the 9th newly promoted team I couldn't find before. There are 4 new teams in C2/C and 2 new teams in C2/A. I don't know how I missed before but at least I found them now. And I find it slightly odd that Frazza has a full team of players. All nine teams in my game have no players other than a few youths. You didn't load all Italian players did you? Could explain it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

A large database should be ticked (although you are free to choose a medium or small database option if you wish). Any official SI patch may be used, but no other edited databases can be used for this challenge. A huge database is basically an edit to load players from nations.

Des Tiny Posted June 28, 2008 Share Posted June 28, 2008 Des Tiny's Casale Preseason 2010/11 Update Heading into the preseason I had just signed a new contract through until 2012, so I had at least two more years, I had promised promotion in 2010/11 to Serie C2. So I went about searching for free transfers, I fired my current Ass Man and his buddy a scout and brought in a new pairing with better football knowledge to help my search. I ended up bringing in enough transfers to fill my squad and have a proper U20's squad this season and I am still under my wage budget by nearly 1k and I have also gained a small transfer budget by Selling my Goalie. He had become our second best goalie over summer, but my third was nearly as good as him and 180k was too hard to turn down. As we got closer to the season I noticed that Papa was seeming to be having issues, he told me it was a personal problem so I suggested he have a month off, he took me up on it and returned sooner than expected and told me thank you for letting me fix my homesickness. Both the media and the bookies Were predicting us to have a good season, both expecting somewhere in the top 6 or 7. Though most likely promotion was out of the question, it was our chance to prove them wrong and hopefully attract more fans in the process. So onwards and into some games, lets get into Serie C1. Friendlies <hr class="ev_code_hr" /><pre class="ip-ubbcode-code-pre"> FRN vs Wehen 1-4 HT: 0-0 Att: 520 Fattori (pen53) FRN at Cesenatico 2-4 HT: 1-2 Zagaria (17), Sassi (77) FRN at Albi 3-1 HT: 2-1 MoM: Leone Zagaria (19), Leone (42), Conti (74) FRN at Gualdo 7-0 HT: 3-0 MoM: Zagaria Zagaria (17,43,45). Cavagna (47,71), Diagne (50), Rota (57) FRN vs Isola Liri 1-1 HT: 0-1 Att: 511 Tarascio (81) FRN at Cuoiocappiano 1-1 HT: 0-1 MoM: Cavagna Cavagna (49) FRN vs Alto Adige 3-2 HT: 1-2 Att: 510 Diagne (20), Rota (79) Cavagna (87) FRN vs Alessandria 2-2 HT: 2-2 Att: 553 Zagaria (9) Cavagna (65) </pre><hr class="ev_code_hr" /> A very good series of games, a poor start was fixed with a small tweak to the tactics, and a couple of minor player changes. I am looking forward to this season. Now if anyone wants a particular shot just ask I am going to upload my Core 18 or so players tonight Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
iacovone Posted June 28, 2008 Share Posted June 28, 2008 Nice friendly results there Des. Can't believe you got so much money for your keeper I just had a look for him on my game and he's on a free transfer - gonna get him in on trial and see if he's good enough You've made a lot of transfers this season, I'd be v.interested in seeing your core 18 if it isn't too much trouble to upload them. Or at least a select few key players! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
aaberdeenn Posted June 28, 2008 Share Posted June 28, 2008 It's taking me forever to piece together a team in time for the season. There's so many players out there so I'm taking my time as I'd really like to pick out the best ones possible to give me a good chance of getting promoted in the first season. I'll report back at the end of the Serie C Cup Group Stage. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
iacovone Posted June 28, 2008 Share Posted June 28, 2008 That's definitely the way to do it aaberdeenn. The best way to get out of the bottom of the pyramid is to really thoroughly search all available options. It does get tiresome at times but I think its well worth it Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Des Tiny Posted June 28, 2008 Share Posted June 28, 2008 Ok I am going to do this Nicely, These are my players and their Main position, first in each grouping is the starter, Below them will be the reserve and so on. Goalkeepers Guerini - Was my Back up last year, this year he is back with a vengence, over summer he decreased less than my other keeper, making him the best in the preseason. Calzavara - Well the luck of this guy was in the size of the offer, he would've spent the season in the under 20s or out on loan instead he becomes my number one back-up and is there in case of an injury. Right Backs Gomes Redondo - A star youngster who was brought in as a back up and also surpassed the former player in his position, a definite star to watch. Delle Donne - New to the club this season, is a back up for the right and central defenders, will hopefully not have too much work this season. Left Backs Cunha - The first of the new boys to step into a starters position, he can fly down that left hand touchline. Fusaro - Cover for the entire left hand side of the pitch, Fusaro's versatilaty keeps him in the side. Centre Backs Rota - Came into the squad when I first took over and is now the senior defender in the squad and the vice-captain will be working hard to keep the number of goals allowed down. Also has a nasty head, scoring regularly from corners. Leone - One of a collection of new faces in the team for this year, Leone is also deadly from corners, but he also has a nasty mouth, yellow cards for lip. But a star in the making. Iodice - A solid back up nothing more. Defensive Midfielders Diagne - A former star of Domegliara in a previous life, Diagne has joined the squad this season and pushed the teams captain onto the bench immediately. An excellent player on attack or defense. Fattori - The Club's captain, now a back up to Diagne after two great seasons with the club, will fight hard to get his place back, discussions have been had over a tactical change to include both of them. Midfielders Grosso - MR - Grosso was a bargin free transfer when you look at his stats, this was one that I trawled for, near the end of the preseason I still had no starting right wing, and I found him. Girasole - ML - Made this position his own last season and now continues to impress. Cavagna - AMRLC - The fantastic playmaker and goalscorer, he is the man around who my entire squad play, an excellent worker and just a brillaint man. Papa - AMC - Papa may have had personal reasons to take a months leave, but no one stood up while he was away enough to usurp him from a starters spot, having made 50 League appearences I am sure he will be here for a while yet. Pittaluga - MRC - Versatile midfield coverage, played well while Papa was away, but pretty much only a back-up. Tarascio - AMC - In a similar mould to Pittaluga, he gets the job done with little fuss. Strikers Tavares - The only Loan in the entire squad, a top quality striker was desperately needed for this club, they were able to save goals, but quite often they just couldn't score enough to win. Zagaria - A solid back-up and a goal-scorer in his own right. A solid pair of strikers. So there you go a run down of my entire 1st team squad Hope you all enjoy it Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Des Tiny Posted June 28, 2008 Share Posted June 28, 2008 Des Tiny's Casale - 2010/11 Serie C Cup Group Stage Update <pre class="ip-ubbcode-code-pre"> SCC vs Carpenedolo 0-0 HT: 0-0 Att: 927 SCC at Chioggia 3-2 HT: 1-2 MoM: Tavares Tavares (39,62,90) C2A vs Valenzana 2-1 HT: 0-0 Att: 1942 MoM: Cavagna Cavagna (56), Pittaluga (84) SCC vs Pro Vercelli 4-1 HT: 4-1 Att: 922 MoM: Tavares Tavares (6,13,38), Leone (45) C2A at Salo 2-1 HT: 2-1 MoM: Cavagna Cavagna (62,70) Papa 50th League App C2A vs Bassano Virtus 4-3 HT: 2-2 Att: 2111 MoM: Cavagna Papa (20), Cavagna (23,67,73) Iodice League Debut SCC vs Pergocrema 1-3 HT: 1-2 Tavares (6) </pre> And Casale is knocked out of the Serie C Cup on Goal difference.

Des Tiny Posted June 29, 2008 Share Posted June 29, 2008 Ok spitting tacks...Not going to say much...ok i will 7th Season 1 I can't score, don't let many in. So season two i buy good strikers. Score lots, let more in. Season 3, I upgrade my defense again keep my strikers, now they can't hit a barn door...so my positions in three seasons...11th, 4th, 7th.

iacovone Posted June 29, 2008 Share Posted June 29, 2008 Wow great work Des. My thoughts for what they're worth : Guerini - he is far too good for C2!! Wish I had him! Calzavara - very good back up Gomez Redondo - Outrageous pace, bet he never gets beaten down the right! Delle Donne - Hmmm. Cunha - Very useful I'd imagine. Good all round left back. Fusaro - Another great left sided player. It must be a tough call who starts - great all round ability. Rota - Very good CB, I could do with him at Albalonga! Leone - Looks useful Iodice - Not bad back up Diagne - Physically incredible, he should dominate at this level Fattori - Very talented, I'd look to get both in the first XI Grosso - How on earth did you get him!? I'd be happy with him in Serie A! Girasole - Looks talented, can see why he's the ML Cavagna - Screenshot didnt work but I remember him from earlier, excellent player Papa - Looks indispensible, you probably did the right thing giving him time to recuperte! Pittaluga - Good back up player imo Tarascio - Looks very useful too Tavares - Far too good for C2! Must get loads of goals? Zagaria - Not bad back up, maybe you could add another striker? Overall you've got a very good squad there Des. I can see you getting promoted this season I'm going to do a similar squad analysis later tonight as I get past the half way point of the season Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
iacovone Posted June 29, 2008 Share Posted June 29, 2008 Dammit, didnt read down. Saw you've moved on now Shame I think you should stick it out at Casale. You've got a good squad there, I'd say you just need to improve 1 CB and go for a more attacking tactic and you should get promoted! Do it! Frazza - make sure you're trialling those foreign players otherwise they're not eligible to be signed! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gilbster Posted June 29, 2008 Share Posted June 29, 2008 Gilbster - Brindisi - 2008/9 - Series C2/C From what I have seen of Brindisi this season they seem to have more of a reputation than other clubs of the same level. We have a 7152 capacity stadium, and are able to scout the whole region. I started by grabbing a few members of staff and then started scouting the varying regions, but since the scouts were never going to be finished before the transfer window closed, I raided the free transfers and my parent club of Roma to get myself a decent sized squad. Pre-season didnt go too bad, but I scarcely won a match, and then I came 3rd in the group stage of the Serie C cup. The actual league season though didnt go too badly, and I have managed to survive. I have a few players already signed coming in on Bosmans for next season, and hope to make some more improvements to the squad.

rlipscombe Posted June 29, 2008 Share Posted June 29, 2008 ashton321 - good season there. with a few more signings etc i am sure you'll be able to close the gap to the top group. good luck?? Gilbster - good, solid first season. i'm sure you'll be able to make further progress - the play-offs aren't too far away. as for MY Como... getting into my pre-season fixtures now. asked the board for more cash and transfer budget is now £1.6 million. doubt i'll use it all as i'm gonna need to adjust the wage budget a bit as that's getting tight. i'm looking forward to my season, although with the Euro Final tonight there might not be too much more game time today.......

dave safc Posted June 29, 2008 Share Posted June 29, 2008 I've never took over a squad with no players before, I'm enjoying the challenge. I'm painstakingly going through the released players from bigger clubs in the hope of finding a gem. Getting a decent side together, hoping they can gel together quickly!

iacovone Posted June 29, 2008 Share Posted June 29, 2008 Albalonga Mid Season Update 08-09 Well its gone suprisingly well so far. Despite a poor performance in the Serie C Cup (we came 4th in our group, although I used it more as an extended pre season) we've maintained a strong showing in the league. I'm as suprised as you probably are because the squad really isn't any good - far from the talent available to you Des! If we could just sort out our home form (its midtable form at the moment) to match our stunning away form (best in the league ) we'd be in with a serious chance of promotion. Its going to take a lot of determination to maintain this position in the second half of the season as I'm sure the opposition will have realised we're no mugs Two key players so far (both on loan from Lazio): Mancini - he only scores great goals Tuia - Often has to do the job of two men as his partners have been so poor but has done this well Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frazza Pee Posted June 29, 2008 Share Posted June 29, 2008 You got Tuia on loan?!? Wow you're lucky he is immense. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
