FIFA 09 - 'The Rivals' - Arcadians Take Series

I doubt there would be enough Scots for an England vs Scotland game but an England vs Rest of the UK & Ireland match would be doable I'm sure.

I think its gonna be WAY too awkward to organise and England vs Rest Of The Worold so a common rivalry will have to do.

I shall be doing the initial draft real soon.

Sorry, I've just realised what this is. I got swept along with all the "I'm in" enthusiasm.

I'm way, way not in.

So much so, I knew you werent, and didnt write your name down just now!

I must have mistakenly thought it was some sort of Pokemon contest, or something. And that makes no sense, because I hate Pokemon even more than I am indifferent to football games.

THE FIFA 09 'THE RIVALS' DRAFT!



Team GM (soon to be renamed something better) and The HurriCades have now be at random drafted their players. The two teams have agreed to a series of seven games to decide who wins the GRCade FIFA Series Cup! The first to four victories will of course win, and these matches are to be played on different nights.

Both teams shall set up a thread in the Challenges and Online Gmaing Folder, and its up each team to individually organise themselves into a well oiled unit with awesome threads for team chat, tactics and arrangements for online duels.


Also transfers CAN occur, but that must be done through the managers of each team, and it is STRICTLY one for one, ie, one player must go to the other team both ways.


HERE IS THE DRAFT!

Bagsy Right wing

EDIT - scratch that, I'll take right wing for our team if that's alright

strawberry floating Awsome!

I will be buying this on Friday and will get as much Practise as I can in Gov.

However I've got to take Mercedes to Tenerife on Tuesday (7th) so wont be about for a week.

When I get back I'll just have to keep my head down and let my football do the talking.

Touch.

This gooseberry fool just got personal.

10v10 intrigues me, but I don't think I'm enough of a footy game player to pick this up just for this league. Last time I bought a game for a GR competition the damn thing never got off the ground.

Is this anywhere cheap?

There are np game vouchers anywhere.

Is everyone here buying the 360 version? There's no cross-platform play, I presume?

I'm xbox 360 so you all have to be.

Can I have some sort of central role in the Hurricades? Anyway looks a good team and we get to thrash Eighthours and Proto

Get ready for the Judas Chants...

CADE STAR KANBEI DEMANDS DREAM MOVE

In a sensational move, Hurricades star Kanbei has demanded a move to their arch-rivals. In a move unheard of since Sol Campbell's move to Arsenal, Kanbei has indicated his desire for a trade to GM's team. Indeed such is the eagerness of GM to seal this transfer, we can exclusively reveal this picture where Kanbei is seen to be meeting with GM, a few of his possible team mates, the club lawyer and the club's resident vampire.



It is now up to a member of GM's squad to indicate a willingness to join the Hurricades in order to force a transfer through. GM and DML will also have to agree that the transfer should take place. There are unconfirmed reports at this time that Kanbei has indeed submitted a transfer request. Hopefully, for both clubs sake, a deal will be agreed soon.

Why do you want to move?!

What is driving me to move? My motives are unknown, it is possible that THIS



is one of the reasons, it seems I will be left out of the starting line up, and must pursue first team football.

Why do you want to move?!

The lad knows he's not in the same league as his teammates.

Well, in that case we need one young Grasshopper whow wants to make the leap if you wanna have Kanbei.

The lucky player will get an en-suite in the Volcano Lair.

Oh man, I just hope my internet holds out during these matches...
