The Land of the Rising Sun

We caught with our new #AGFL virgin BiGGieD80. He let us know his thoughts on his first ever season on AbsoluteGaming:

Welcome to the Land of the Rising Sun, home to the Yakuza, the weird and wacky, karaoke, the CyberJapan girls, and other girls on top of that.

In April 2020, a little unkown Englishman crossed the entire globe (pretty much), to take over the FC Tokyo franchise. His name was BiGGieD80. He couldn't speak any Japanese whatsoever, however with the way he had plans for the club, he wouldn't need to speak Japanese, he'd need to learn pretty much every other language known to mankind.

BiGGieD80 didn't waste much time selling his squad's top player, but then strategically re-invested that money in starting to rebuild the squad.

Untamed Shrews Go Three Clear At Top

Matchday 5 Action

Harryn9000 has got a bit of a reputation for making a strong start to seasons before fading towards the end, but have the wheels come off as early as Matchday 5 in his games against L0stbOy90 ? In the first game the sides matched each other in an end to end encounter, that finished 2-2. Harry thought his side was the stronger in that game but were let down by poor finishing, but the tables were turned in the second game as Stevenage dominated for long periods come out victorious with a scoreline of 4-3.

Dortmund off to a flyer?

Borussia Dortmund's season in the Premiership starts this Wednesday, as manager Ash Cohen's side take on Shelbourne Wolfsburg side, in a game that sees them only travel a few hours away north. Shelbourne, who was part of the promotion trio from the Championship last season will be looking to make a dent in Dortmund's start to the season, in a season that the fans are waiting in high anticipation.

Manager Ash Cohen, who signed a one season contract with Dortmund a few weeks back, will want to take them on a journey this season that hopefully results in some silverware.

"I'm looking forward to kickstarting our season on Wednesday against an opponent who I know is not going to be an easy game. He came up from the Championship last season, and he'll want to prove that he can mingle in the Premiership this season, so I don't expect a easy game. But we've had a good pre-season and a bit of form, and we need to carry that into the first set of fixtures.

Too Tight to Call for Final Play-Off Spot

Week 11 action.

League One moves closer to the climax of the season, and those wanting to get out of the division were looking to pick up maximum points this week. It was great to see Emotionalworm back in action after his absence but he seemed to have forgotten how to score goals in his catch up games against Hilly89 , who beat him 1-0 and 4-0 despite the games being fairly even in play.

Ryjones88 would have expected to get all six points against bottom of the league andybrill89 and all went well in the first game for him. The outstanding Watford goalie helps keep his team in games but was eventually beaten 3 times, to lose 3-1, with Andy getting a consolation goal at the end.

Robins flying high!

Swindon Town are flying high in the #AGFL Championship this season, gaining 27 points from their first 12 games.

Two 2-0 wins over Jeffantony1988 last night has helped moved Swindon to the summit of the Championship although other teams do have games in hand.

One of the main reasons the Robins are doing so well is the fact that they have only conceded 7 goals in their 12 games played so far this season.

"From the get go, I wanted to concentrate on building my team from the back forwards. We've brought in Ajayi which we paid big bucks for in the BFA. I personally think my defence is the best in the league, if not the whole three leagues. Attack win games, defence win championships and now we have a defence which can go onto to have succuss this season. We are still on the look out for a big name Striker to challenge Vido and Joveljic for their places but overall I am a happy my squad so far."
