By the way if we were successful and they asked what size you require go 1 size lower than you are currently as the time it seems they take to send the tee shirts out you will have moved up in size :lol: :lol: :lol:

Just an observation, if Portugal stuff Germany tonight the mini league could fall apart, have looked at a few of the top teams in the fiso league and they all are chocker block with german players, think we should overload with dutch if Portugal win tonight

Any thoughts?

Best to wait and see what happens tonight. I'm one of those riding high with a team chock-a-block of Germans and hoping they beat the Portuguese (not 100% certain they will unfortunatley).

Probably worth waiting to see what happens to Rotterdam's bunch as well.

I'm one of them. It's the first QF, if Germany lose there's plenty of time and transfers to replace their players before the semis while still getting points (hopefully) from the replacements. If I had a team full of Spaniards I'd be worried

Don't worry, I'm glad you were wrong. Any chance you could make the same prediction for the Spa - Ita game? ;)

You should be safe there, the Italians are missing two key players and aren't playing that well. That's what I'm hoping anyway!

Couldn't you say that about Germany 24 hours ago? Missing 1 influential player in frings and not playing the best football in the world

Think this is going off subject tho

I thinks its a tremendous acheivment that a league the size of ours approaching 40 teams is beating a carefully composed league of 11 rotterdam, who always enter these competitions and I suspect there may be something underhand about them... :x
E.G multi-entry.

My understanding is you will lose it at midnite, so if you use before it should be okay. Choose a player you would tomorrow anyway, nothing to lose.

That's my understanding too. I've used my "spare" transfers up already as I'll know no more about the next team lineups at 23.59 than I do now. Obv. the only issue is if you are switching out players who play tonight (as it sounds like you are).

Let us know how you got on with the post-match transfer and whether you still got the points. I was going to do this myself, but shat it and transferred out Spaniards for Germans before Spain-Italy kicked off. Didn't do too much damage, only slipped 3 places.

2 observations/queries:
Why is the bottom team in our league on zero points?
How many of the mini leagues below ours are controlled by multi entrants? :?:

I noticed that this morning I'm sure that wasnt there last week..and the next one with 15 pts why do these people ( thats if they are genuine) join the FISO league it annoys me... :( :(

don't think there's any controlled by multi entrants but in these games its hard to tell....our nearest rivals have approx 12 teams but they seem to be on top of all of them not like us... Still hanging in there..whats the message for the semis then are we going for a Spain / Germany final or are we having teams with a mix? Thats if people have the transfers left !!

Ill go Germany Spain defence mix
Spain Germany midfield mix
Germany Russia attack mix that will leave me 1 sub left for the final

Think someone should post an appeal thread to those managers at the bottom somewhere asking them to stick in a load of Germans, somewhere they would more likely see it rather than this topic or even spread it about on a few topics

I'm not sure if this is the case with all of teams (although I agree it's annoying when people sign up to every league going and then stop playing when they get bored/don't perform as well they think they should). Some of those teams look like they should have got more points than they've got and certainly the bottom team has a decent squad made up of semi-final players and they are managing their team (looking at their transfers).
