       I think we need to convert some more forumers :)

       I did look this up in the App Store after you both waxed lyrical
       about it but I read the reviews ... They all pretty much said
       the same thing which is - great game, very enjoyable,then you
       get promoted & smashed each week unless your prepared to spend
       real money on IAP don't bother
       That kinda put me off as I dislike purchasing 'upgrades' but it
       seemed these were more of a necessity than a luxury

       Well I'm on brink of promotion so I'll see how it goes, in fact
       mathematically I'm already up first just going thru last few
       games.  Have watched some vids to get coins and some of other
       games look quite decent too so may try them out if this goes
       downhill fast after going up

       Does sound ominous.
       One thing on the reviewers & not to sound negative towards them
       or even justifying my liking the game - were these the ones that
       wanted instant gratification & wanted to get promoted year one
       year automatically?
       It would probably be the same if people were reviewing UT
       seasons, saying that they should automatically win D1 the moment
       they have been promoted to from D10.
       Don't want to sound like everything replicates RL as close as
       possible, but it would be a good touch (more realistic) to
       actually struggle in the next division.

       Nice ones Eric - I'll check my players too and see what they
       look like.
       I may have a reason to create a Facebook account :P.

       Yeah I also wd reserve judgement on that as these reviewers cd
       be kids or maybe kiwi puts it better.  I mean I don't expect
       back to back promotions necessarily.  Usually when a team goes
       up the first aim is to consolidate and not go back down.  Anyway
       I've one game to go in the division which is due shortly so will
       let you know how it goes.

       Ok quick update.  Played 2 games, won first one lost 2nd and
       didn't have great chance to win it.  Got more coin than ever
       ~90k but problems now, seems like my entire team is f*cked,
       really need a nutritionist but can't afford one.  Had a def on
       bench for a gd few games but doesn't seem to be recovering
       fitness.  Will see what I can do later but maybe I have hit
       something of a dead end for now.  Cd no doubt buy a new player
       with my coin but way it looks I prob need 2 or 3.  Hmm.

       Yeah - probably have to leave them overnight now. The game is
       geared for that fairly lengthy layoff.
       Kid just won the league - got 15k, 100 Rep, no gold. Not much
       actually ::)

       Lol have the wheels came off already.  Well after a bit of a
       break, travelled down to Swansea for a training course at work
       for this week, i went back on it and my players were reasonably
       fit so subbed in my slightly better players and tried again.
       Not done too well, lost my next couple matches, you really
       really have to take your chances at this level, div 4 lol, and
       some of them are bloody hard too, a good bit further away or
       about 3 bodies immediately in front of you, not much room for
       error.   Lol just gonna persevere anyway and try not to get
       relegated.   The other thing ive noticed is that your opponents
       have more spirit than in div 5, which might or might not make a
       difference.
       As im not caring a whole lot i went into my last match with no
       practice, so no spirit, lost 3-1, didnt take my chances, blah
       blah blah.   Yep played about 6 games now and its not looking
       good, sat in relegation zone, but its hard when ive probably not
       been able to field my best lineup fully fit in any given game.
       Meh, anyways knackered now will see what to do tomorrow.

       downloaded Remember Me (free for PS Plus members during January)
       and I am pleasently surprised by this game. It is a mix between
       some platforming and hack & Slash packed in a good story (I am
       only in chapter 3).
       refreshing game from the old master of CAPCOM
