Rolling back the years

Now its not Mick Hucknell although the last time he had a huge hit was around the same time aaronc333 won a league title. Might be a case of "Money too tight to mention" after this season slip in the loans stakes. Ill leave deareststorm to sort that one out.

Check out the image above. Created back in 2010 when Aaron was ..............ill leave this one to ImmortalTanz

Anyway pressing on. AG greatest tournament returned tonight. The TFI Friday Cup. 9 members took part and four of those were TFI virgins. You would like to think IDanger IMouse Kemmatt101 I 7Vo Sense I and Chadji30 would cause some problems for the long term members.................anyway moving on.

aaronc333 got his way to the final. When you got to help a new member you dont pay attention to the game and deareststorm some how managed a win vs returning members dazzler24.

It was the final that was meant to be. Did Storm win? no. Does anyone care who won then? No.

We move on. Thanks for reading.

Worst Defence in League Nearly Keep Clean Sheet

There were nearly celebrations in the streets down in Valencia when Big B's team came within a minute of that very rare thing in the AG Career league, a clean sheet. In the game again Southampton, the few fans that had stayed that long were treated to a late goal by the substitute Mina that to the uneducated might have suggest Big B was about to get his first win of the season. Those that have seen this team play regularly werent in the least surprised when CookieMUFC's charges equalised in the 90th minute. What had surprised them more was that the goal was so late in coming. In the earlier fixture, Valencia had lost 3-2 despite having been 2-0 up at half time.

Coach Big B said "if the games all ended after 45 minutes, we'd probably be top of the league" Its true that in nearly every game, Valencia can be on top most of the first half but will surrender a decent lead after about 60 minutes, when the whole defence seems to be falling apart. Big B added 'If we're not at least 3 goals ahead by half time, I know we're still likely to draw or lose. Thats the way things have been this season. We're good at going forward but no matter how well we sort things out in training, this set of players seem to balls it up in the second. Before I came out here Gary Neville warned me about how lazy some of the squad were, but Ive seen it myself now, and the trouble is, I'm stuck with this rabble til the end of the season."

Race for the wooden spoon

Its the race that no members wants to be in but currently we have 4 fighting out at the bottom of Club League 1.

As you an see by the table none of the members are in great form. We check each member out and The Banker gives his thoughts on who can claim that great title.

ImmortalTanz was the front runner in Club League 1 for the early part of the season. In his own words "I only played Storm and he is dog shit". Tanz is currently sat at the top of the bottom 4. He is 5 points clear of niwintz however everyone behind him has games in hand. He could well be dragged into the bottom 2 but I think his quality will just see him ok.

niwintz only one win this season against Storm although did take a creditable point from a game vs paullowes80. niwintz will be ok and I see him finishing at the top of the mini table.

deareststorm the man currently out of action with Australian Flu. Has this effected his form in recent weeks? Storm is yet to record a win and is in big trouble because Bri has games in hand. Storms issue is that he cannot keep clean sheets. Going forward (in his own words) he is deadly. if only he had that Jose bus! I see Storm finishing with the wooden spoon.

Big B 1970 is a man in desperate need of a win but has games in hand for comfort and also knowing two of those will be against Storm. Fans are comparing Bri's time as manager to that of Gary Neville. The only difference being is GNev is far better looking. Bri should dig himself out of this and the games vs Storm will be the game changer.

Its gonna be one hell of a finish to the season thats for sure.

The Bankers run down on the League Cup draw!

The draw for the 41st Club League Cup has been made earlier today at AG Towers. The Banker and his best mate aaronc333 made the draw behind closed doors. Ill let yuou make of that what you will. Here are The Bankers thoughts on the ties:

niwintz vs balonga13

Tough one to call this. On his day Wintz can upset anyone and balonga can also throw up a surprise or two. balonga has a long history with this competition so if im sticking my neck out here im gonna go for a balonga win with golden goal.

oBIGASHo vs CookieMUFC

Recently met in the league with Ash winning both. I dont see past Ash again for this one. When the big games come around Ash steps up. 3-0 to Ash.

Big B 1970 vs TheAshCohen09

Ash has been a regular at the top of the table in recent seasons and I see the same again this time around. Although Bri has a decent team in Valencia I cant see a cup upset here. 4-1 to Ash.

deareststorm vs paullowes80

No upset here im afraid. Paul will be far too strong for the crazy man. Storm does have the ability erm sorry luck to get through this one but I doubt it very much. 5-0 to Paul.

aaronc333 vs Jobi Juan

The ex king of FIFA vs the returning member. Cup upset here on the cards with Jobi going through on golden goal. I think Aaron struggles in big games when the pressure is on and Jobi will take his chances.

FC Helsingor Intent on title push

Today marks the start of an important moment in the history of FC Helsingor. Come 3pm the Helsingor Stadion will be packed out as the Danish Vikings welcome Grimsby Town to begin their Fantasy League campaign. It's been an impressive pre season for the men from Denmark. The Fantasy King Of The Hill Trophy is currently in their possession after two comfortable victories. One of them being a 5-2 scoreline against oBIGASHo's Irish contenders Dundalk. The other being a 2-0 finish against a resolute deareststorm lead Gornik Zabrze. Now manager Balonga is looking to add the title he craves so so much.

"The aim as I begin each seasons is simple and that's to win. Obviously we know that is a difficult task as there is a lot of quality in the Fantasy League. I'm not one to start stirring the pot and take aim at other managers. I like to do my talking out on the pitch and I believe I have a side that can challenge this year."

As we sit in the modest 3 star Hotel Skandia deep in the heart of Helsingor Balonga is keen to stress how he isn't here to relax. "A few of the locals have been surprised I ended up in the Skandia but my job here isn't to enjoy a life of luxury. My mission is to succeed in winning Football matches. Plus the staff here are great and they do a great Fish and Chips so I'm perfectly content."

Conversation soon turns to managers within the league notably the ongoing feud between DaddyNJacob and aaronc333. Balonga wasn't afraid to have his say on the matter.
