Some tight tight games....

The Championship just might come down to the difference of winning or draws in key matchups versus the Europa winner who takes all of the points...

Decisions now will change outcomes (2 tight ECL games) and two Europa games that might lead the owners of Feyenoord and Deportivo into a battle for the first Championship.

I'll work on the subterfuge influence points tonight...

Bayern win - Rock solid team, great quality throughout.

Slight edge to the Dutch in the second one, but it's two well matched teams. The manager of the South Italy team played his cards very well to get here.

Comfortable Monaco win. That Depor side is far from being one of the top 4 EL sides yet it might somehow sneak into the final. Absolutely mind-boggling.

Easy Feyenoord win. They've been heavy favourites for the EL throughout the tournament, and only Monaco, Spurs and Flamengo could've provided some sort of competition. Although, judging from the way things are going, probably they'll lose in the final to a bang average team with 0 pace that plays Djalminha right wing.

Hey lads!!! 

I have finished the Subterfuge Scoreboards for everyone who is still active (14 players mostly as Claus is no longer with us and one other I'll send to in PM).



People got Influence Points for 4 Reasons:

1.  Directly influencing another manager to make a roster decision (Lobo was a fine example of this)

2.  Indirectly influencing others to vote for your teams (those with the highest VOTE totals - Lastra/Sheer/DeFacto/Claus) all received a point

3.  Avoiding detection (8 managers were successful at influencing their peers away from the right answer)

4.  Magnitude of Posting - The Edward Bernays Award of Consistent and Massive Pressure Put on other players (Lawnmowerman won this by a landslide) - Nick/Bobby were considered.


Let me know if you all want to see each Scorecard posted or if you prefer to them to be hidden in PM's --- I am open to each.

Remember, I trashed the funny funny stuff as it was a better idea in concept than implementation.  So, just 3 categories only for Subterfuge, as it should be.

Lastly, I am not going to close the voting threads until we get to 15 votes at least.   FYI ----->  time to get on a lazy voter or bat-signal the wives.....  Cannot crown a champ until we finish with the Semis...

And if it looks like you are going to pens --- send me your 7 of your players plus the decisions please.!!!!

Not surprised the Dutch Consortium - W Italy Consortium was a draw, I really like the W Italy Consortium but went for the Dutch Consortium as it just looks that little bit stronger in most areas. Tough one to call that.

Also surprised Monaco came back, weren't they 6-3 down or something? Wonder whose wives came a running?

How much better could they have got? Veron and a better wildcard? I like the midfielders individually but I don't think they work well together but other than that, it's pretty much a decent team?

Better forwards than mancini. (salas, boksic, Vieri, klose). Favalli left in instead of kolorov. Molby instead of lucas. Stankovic instead of Mendieta. Yeah Veron in. Maybe Different formation aswell. Gazza is shite but not too worried about him there

Looking at Lazio again I think you only need one if Mancini and Signori. Then go with a more physical second striker. But that’s just my opinion, and I’m no good at drafting.

Fantastic striker though.

Okay lads....

We have come down to it....  I have the penalties and will publish them this evening.  Point totals have been updated.

And before I calculate the penalties ---- there are still 5 teams that can win the whole shebang....   Once pens happen, then that'll be reduced to 3.

The Finals will be posted and the Results late tomorrow night -- with a small word from me and big round of thank you's from everyone who participated.

Post to you soon!
