Beware!. The TFF World Cup Game.
Don't know which bozo company/people run this game BUT!.
I feel totally swindled. Bought a 9.99 season ticket (10 TEAMS) and reluctantly against my better judgement, thought it would be worth getting another 20.00 pack to maximise permutations.
These packs are advertised as receiving additional double credits (20.00 etc = 16 credits instead of 8) before midnight 31ST May 2018.
To my horror I only received 8.
What are the Daily Telegraph playing at.
Any thoughts will be welcomed

Their crap Jaycar. Fortunately I emailed them first to clear things up before I tried purchasing. I think it’s an absolute joke of advertising. They actually emailed telling me not to putchase the pack. I’ll just get my missus to get a pack of 10 for £9.99 instead that’ll teach em.

Re: World Cup game! False Advertising! Swindled!
i may have won the seasonal game and top 10'd this year but i am seriously considering not playing this year. the amount of transfers you need to process is ridiculous. even worse of the £20k first prize that would have tempted more entries £5k each has been diverted to a stupid goals prize and a knockout prize. you would do better placing a bet on the golden boot if you like that kind of thing! the latter prize will go to a huge multi entrant who has nothing better to do in a short run comp than revolve his defences around. this really is exceptionally appalling, not surprised their entry structure stated doesn't match the reality, too many gimmicks and not enough seasonal focus may kill this game. very 50/50 whether i will bother playing or not, can't believe after all these years that the sun now has a better game!

I was cold turkeyed out of the TFF when they banned residents from abroad. I started doing Dream Team and liked it's low maintenance. Now transfers in that game have gone over the top. It's got to the point where the game is putting off the occasional player.
Looking at other FF games, I now really enjoy the brutality of Velogames. Pick your team and pray. No transfers. It takes a little study to have a good team that puts in a good performance. I like that set up. The best bit is when one of the riders does a late surge and you weren't allowed to transfer him out, when you would have done. Quality, Cream and all that.
Visits, hits and advertising seems to be the set up in this kind of business. It all seems to be heading in one direction. I do wonder though what the advertisers understand. With multi entrants, you're reaching the same pundit each time.
