Season 61 (60)
A new season and a new dawn: Seaburn won a match against one of the strongest sides in the division without a goal from Addo. Is this an aberration or is his reign of terror over? Time will tell, for sure.
Seaburn's main priority in this season is to try and advance as far as possible in the CL. Last season, the eventual winners nobbled us in the QFs. Maybe a kinder draw could help us go a round or two further.
The side is largely the same as last season. And there is zero chance of any first team player being brought in before the window slams shut (TM, Jim White). But I would dearly love to sell at least two more players to finance the wages of some of my greedier earners!
Season 61 begins and I'm expecting Melchester to run Seaburn close this year, but I'm going to take a risk and predict a Seaburn league title! Think we'll be fighting with Cardiff for 3rd and 4th, but there could be a surprise package this season.
Hoping to have a good run in Europe - the promised land of an additional European spot is in sight...
Promising start in Europe - Cardiff squeaked through qualifying round one 29-0 on aggregate!
Not really good at this prediction lark but i am gonna plump for my team finishing somewhere between 8th and 20th lol.
Good luck everyone.
It's simple for the Pixels: concede less than the 94 goals we leaked last season......so a 3:0 defeat to Melchester was the perfect start!
2 games gone and the league table already has a very familiar look to it - I'll place a bet a one shiny new penny that 5 of the current top 6 will finish in the top 6 at the end of the season...
Europa still looking good - Cardiff and Liverpool through to next round after a couple of tricky ties.
The yellow and green machine of Seaburn Beach is looking ominously poised, despite some tough fixtures to open up the campaign. Anything less than another title will not be acceptable to the Beach faithful, but it's European success that I crave.
Speaking of which, we have lost one of our clubs from continental competition. Liverpool City failed to roll back the years and are out. Good luck to those who remain. Going deep into the competition is what we need to bring back more European places for the league to feast on.
My team is still conceding too many goals but are somehow managing to grind out the results (0 losses in last 7 games).
Well, 4 of us through to the group stages. I didn't make it into the Champions League so drop into the European which is more my level. Great win for Cardiff in the final playoffs so we join Melchester in the European group stages and Seaburn fly the flag in the Champions League. Now all we have to is match (or even better?) last year when we all made it through the groups in style...
Happy with your group stage draws?
I think mine is probably alright. The current German league leader, Koen's old side and an Estonian side. The German side looks the weakest on paper, while Koen's team is essentially a bot team. The Estonian side has been a bit of a bogey team for me in the past, but it'd be disappointing not to finish in the top two.
Pretty happy with my draw - first time I've been the top ranked team in my group. 3 good teams but no-one scary - would be disappointed to not make the top 2.
Yeah me too. OTB (again), but if I get an away draw and a home win vs the other two in my first two games I should be ok.
Well - that didn't start well. tried to manage having 2 big games 2 hours apart and failed miserably - lost both. Need a result in my next European game otherwise it'll start looking a lot harder.
Melchester's European hopes lie in tatters this morning after a 2-4 home defeat. 5 shots yielded 4 goals for the opposition with two of the goal scorers having power of less than 4 balls. Sometimes it just isn't your day. Combined with the debacle of facilities issues with my Angolan team, this has to be a low point for me within this game.
I'm going to go and lie down in a dark room until the universe decides that it's going to be kinder to me. Then I'll go again.
Seaburn were threatened with a similarly poor result at half-time today, but thankfully Linder and Addo turned it round in the second half and we managed to get out of the match with a 2-1 win. One more win ought to guarantee third spot and anything more should take me into the top 2 where, ideally, I want to be.
