Off the pitch, the loan agreement for Shane Ferguson has ended and Ferguson has returned to Newcastle United.
Over the past couple of weeks, a few players whose contacts were set to expire have agreed to extensions.
ST Alfie Pavey (Age 20, 55 OVR) 3 years, £1,300/week
ST Steve Morison (Age 32, 66 OVR) 1 year, £9,000/week
LM Lee Martin (Age 28, 67 OVR) 1 year, £10,000/week
Notts County came to play in the FA Cup 3rd Round Replay. They scored on a pair of unbelievable headers just 3 minutes apart late in the first half to earn a shock result over Millwall.
The Lions hit the bar 3 times and also hit a post as the 4th Round Proper was simply not to be.

Highlight video of some of the goals from the first half of the season.

I've played 16 matches since the slider re-work (they are largely OS's Community Sliders with some tweaks to account for playing 20-minute halves) and jumping to Legendary. I've been monitoring my statistics since then and thought I'd post what I have.
I took the averages of the first 354 matches in Football League 1 this season and below you'll see a comparison to my numbers. Real-world numbers are in parenthesis.
Goals Per Game: 2.69 (2.68)
Shots Per Game: 22.81 (21.62)
Shots on Target Per Game: 9.63 (8.70)
Shot %: 42.19 (40.25)
Goals Per Shot %: 11.78 (12.42)
Goals Per SOT %: 27.92 (30.84)
As you can see, the numbers are really good and nothing is completely out of line. I'm happy worth what I have but I'll be sure to keep an eye on them as well.
It's also worth noting that my record is 7-5-4 during those 16 matches. Also something I'm pleased with. I've had a few nil-nil draws, and some games with plenty of goals too (5-2, 3-3) so there's alot of variety.
Nice! Since I am out of the loop with FIFA I have been playing on pro but based on my shot totals it's clear I will need to move up one difficulty level very soon.Quote:

Despite playing with 10 men for 65 minutes, Millwall took the spoils against Shrewsbury Town on a header from a set piece in the 53rd minute from center back Sid Nelson. It was the reserve's first goal in 13 appearances this season.
