The Golden Molby episode 2

With the FA comps in full swing and the gw cup a few rounds in everyone seems to be knuckling down and concentrating on trying to bring success to their clubs. There's also a few massive transfers to roundup a bit later on some people most definitely been raiding the piggy banks.

Team of the Week

This week goes to Ken Adam's Badger Badger who beat off stiff competition to claim that 100k prize and recognition throughout the gameworld as team to beat.

Mover of the week.

Was Crouch Hill FC who climbed around 600 places in the weekly rankings gotta be sweet to actively make progress and get rewarded for it.

The lobby groanbag

The main discussions this week have been a bit of Chelsea, and how rubbish most think Scolari is or isn't in a couple of instances. Also another main talking point has been those internationals midweek and well basically how rubbish England, how totally lacking they were in passing and movement and also why is Downing picked? Again not everyone had the same views.

Game of the Week Moscow 2008 vs Wight Diamonds

A game that was seemingly a meaningless friendly was played this week at the theatre of nightmares in Stockport, turned into an exhibition of the beautiful game. It didn't take too long for the deadlock to be broken when Obasi headed home from close range for the diamonds. Gilardino doubled the diamonds lead with a great header from the penalty spot on 26 minutes. Moscow managed to get themselves back into the game tho just 3 minutes later with Martinez blasting home a penalty. Then before the diamonds had a chance to compose themselves Chatelle was played in behind the fullback and beat the keeper at his near post with a well placed finish 2-2. Martinez then went from hero to villian heading the ball past his own keeper as he attempted to clear the diamonds corner in injury time at the end of the 1st half.

A few minutes into the second half and prince Boateng socred from the edge of the box to make it 3-3. Then disaster again for Moscow as they scored another own goal thos time Corluka deflecting a shot past his own keeper. Then with 20 mins to go Moscow finally found a breach in the diamonds defence a nice passing and movement allowed wellington space in the box to smash past the goalie at his near post. Chatelle then scored a lovely striker from a tight angle on the right wing to make it 5-4. Then it was the diamonds turn to score an own goal as a defender unknowingly put into his own after the a fierce shot rebounded off the post to the hit the defender and roll in surely Moscow were safe now? two minutes of injury gone the diamonds lifted themselves and got another one back but in the end it was too late to turn it round but what a game! 6-5

Transfers

Well there's been some big name signings this week with John Terry coming off the free agent list to martial the defence of AC United for a whopping £925k. The Arsenal Striker Adebayor was also one that was swept away from his life of rest and relaxation signing for Ardwick AFC. One big money mover was Anderson the amc moving from number 1 ranked Badger Badger to AC Meehan for 750k. Another notable signing was the much sort after Pato who was snapped up by mod Bart Bibi Brouwers for 722k.

A look on the other side of the coin the wages shows that experienced midfielder Senna is the current top earner this week on £42.501k per day. But he actually shares this huge wage with another superstar in the from of Luca Toni. Terry, klose, Seedorf and Del Piero.
