For the record, I follow along, I was following your entire previous thread over the past year, I just didn't have much time to watch all the videos. But regardless of whether you go text or Twitch/YouTube, I'll be following this one as well!
Yeah.. "cheap" is a relative term when it comes to FIFA salaries. :DQuote:

The thing is, last year I got so bogged down with the videos and whatnot that I got to the point that I didn't want to play. So I'm just going to take it easy this year and do what I feel like doing and saying "fuck it" to the rest. :)
Whatever works best for you! As long as it keeps you going and enjoying playing, whichever method you pick is fine with me. I'll be following regardless.
A 1-1 draw was the result at The Den against Walsall.
Spoiler: show
A full week will pass before next Saturday's visit to Sheffield United. The Lions will be without Fred Onyedinma who was sent off in the dying embers of Saturday's draw with his second yellow card against Walsall.
Millwall have agreed to sell reserve striker John Marquis to Port Value for a fee of £300,000. Port Value representatives will meet with Marquis' agent to attempt to negotiate a contract.
I agree. That being said... I am selfish and enjoy watching videos and live streams of other people playing their career modes/franchise modes. Back when Steeler used to stream The Show 14 I must have watched over 50 games. I watched a handful of yours and JB's games that year as well. I probably watched close to 70 games. I don't watch that many baseball games most years.Quote:

Up next, Crystal Palace comes to town on Tuesday for another cup tie. Should be a big challenge facing a Premier League side in the second round of the Capital One Cup.
For the record, I'm hoping to update the sliders at the beginning of this thread to what I'm using now. I'm going to play a few matches on 20-minute halves to see how it goes too. Right now, I'm averaging 20.43 shots (should be around 27) and 2.14 goals (should be around 2.7 to 3). I'm going to see if a 30% increase in time gets those numbers in the right neighborhood.
This deal is done. Marquis agreed to terms with Port Vale.Quote:

Huge shock result in the 2nd round of the Capital One Cup as Millwall send Premier League side Crystal Palace crashing out of the competition with a 2-1 win over the Eagles.
Lee Martin opened the scoring with a close-range volley in the 38th minute and Shane Ferguson scored the eventual match-winner with a brilliant header into the top right from 13 yards off of a corner.

The squad looks quite different from the one that played in July in Sweden, going into the September 1st cup tie with Bristol Rovers in Johnstone's Paint Trophy first round match.
It should also be noted that CDM Nadjim Abdou suffered a bruised shoulder in the draw with Peterborough and will miss about a week and a half.
Another player, Matty Peltier, was signed to the club's Youth Academy.

What base formation do you run Steeler?
A version of 4-5-1 (it is actually a 4-2-3-1).Quote:
