[aneeq7]

When are we getting the matches?

 

[Ibad17]

i will post the matches in about an hour. But the managers who posted their tactics instead of teams will not be counted and even their tactics will not be counted until they post it on the custom tactics thread. Sorry, but i have to be strict, because it is a pain to say that you guys don't understand the first posts easily.

 

[Afrid1]

Am I ok Ibad???

 

[aneeq7]

Ibad -I think you should have a penalty for not announcing Team's like Rizzy does, maybe have a 4 points deduction!

 

[Ibad17]

there is already a penalty of 3 strikes. If a manager do not post his team on three different matches then he will be sacked. But this does not apply for the friendlies.

 

[aneeq7]

1 hour over, How long left now Ibad?

And from now on can you post all matches around this time - 4 or 5pm GMT would be allright for everyone i guess..

 

[aneeq7]

there is already a penalty of 3 strikes. If a manager do not post his team on three different matches then he will be sacked. But this does not apply for the friendlies.

So would that team be automatically be out of the League or will the manager be replaced by another PPer?

 

[Pakistaniboy]

So would that team be automatically be out of the League or will the manager be replaced by another PPer?

I Guess He woud be replaced by another PPer

 

[Afrid1]

Ibad i know this would be a bit more challenging but if you could post the match videos it would add another dynamic angle to this league???

 

[Pakistaniboy]

1 hour over, How long left now Ibad?

And from now on can you post all matches around this time - 4 or 5pm GMT would be allright for everyone i guess..
