It’s not allowed by the rules to manage more than one team in one dimension.
If someone has a ‘friend’ playing the game, the damage (profit for cheating) is less if you get one ‘special deal’ then if you get five ‘special deals’.
Or in other words, if someone wants to cheat, this rule makes it more difficult.
For a cup game it’s normal… you can check it with the other cup games.
I think the text of the rule is clear, no? The rule exists to make cheating more difficult.

PSV is selling a talented keeper: 20 years, 83 keeping
http://www.rubysoccer.com/game/player_info/158016
He is loaned out until season 48, turn 97, which is bad if you would need him now, but good if you want him for future prospects. Probably he will become a 90+ keeper.
Despite his young age I’m selling him for the estimated value.
And in the players screen, contracts tab, you can see how many turns there are left for the contracts.
I can see a reason: G Maximilian Rebmann 9.5 vs G Jean Lesieur 6.1
Won’t happen soon, right? My team is currently second in the standings, but at this moment I prefer 100% chance to play Europe League to (less than) 50% chance to play Champions League. So unless my suggestion is applied for next season, I need to drop some points.
In season 46 the traditional bad start was really bad: just seven points from the first eight matches. No need to worry though, 12 of the next 13 matches were won, and the goal, the third place, was within reach. AZ also wanted this spot and a race between the two teams started. A close race, and before the last round both teams had the same amount of points… but PSV lost the last match! Oh no! But a miracle happened: AZ also lost, and the team from Eindhoven took third place with 72 points (117-64 vs 85-49 by AZ).
In Europe things didn’t go very well: being paired with Valladolid for a place in a CL group, PSV lost without a chance against a team that got knocked out in the semi finals later. A lesson was learned: for now, Europe League is a better place to develop the players.
Analysis of the matches of this season showed that the keeper was the weak spot in the squad. Not that PSV has weak keepers, but for some reason the don’t perform as well as the keepers of our competion do. A decision was made: the experienced Gavin Armstrong was sold, Ben Stellmacher would be the new first keeper, while Peres and Pieter would defend the reserve team goal. PSV is happy to have to have these young players and expect them to be candidates for the national squad in the future.
In the Europe League group 1 has three Dutch teams (but I think it’s a lucky draw for me).
Interestingly enough, he gained in stats (87 tackling, 595 points total now) but lost in value. Price is adjusted.

I saw in fastticker a player with an average rating of 9.39 this season:

Is there any player that scored higher (>30 games)?
The usual bad start in season 45: only 22 points from the first 16 matches. Not that the team played badly, but for some reason the opponent’s keeper was always excelling against us. Fortunately the season is 38 games and at the end PSV made 76 points again (89-56) which was good for the second place this year.
Meanwhile the squad wasn’t ready for Europe yet: only one point was made in the six EL-matches. Can’t win the war with only very young players, so some still young but experienced players were bought for the younger stars to look up too. And some of them were developing very quickly…
Season 44 started well: many teams were bidding to get the Spanish super talent Berto Lomeras, but he choice was to play for PSV. A choice he hasn’t regretted yet. The league didn’t start well though, as the team was struggling to stay in the middle of the table. But once the team started winning they didn’t stop and at the end for the first time in many years PSV qualified for the Europe League by getting the third place with 76 points. Europe here we come!
Could things in season 43 go worse than what happened last season? Yes it could. After six places PSV was on the last place with 2 draws and four losses. The fans shouted for a new manager, and the board lost their patience too. “One more loss and your out!” Message understood, loud and clear: twenty matches later PSV was still on four losses, and in those twenty games they scored 76 goals! Suddenly even the championship seemed possible. At the end PSV was just three match points short for the championship, but with 126 goals for and 32 against the fans were happy again and eagerly awaiting the comeback in the Eredivisie.
Meanwhile, some promosing youngsters had joined the team, like Aldo Roma and Yvon Angot, and it was decided that the best trainers would be hired to develop them. A good decision, it would turn out later.
In season 42, PSV was without a manager for some time. Also the team was in danger of relegation. Fortunately a new manager arrived, promosing the fans that their favourite team would be competing in Europe soon. Alas, the enthousiasm of the fans soon went down as the PSV starting to lose match after match. Players were sold that should not have been sold, new players arrived who didn’t make the first team, and the unavoidable happened: PSV relegated to the Eerste Divisie. An outrage, and managers have been fired for less, but the board decided to have patience and gave the manager a chance to build up the team. However, staying in the Eerste Divisie longer than one season was not acceptable.
In this thread I will write about PSV, also known as ‘Boeruh’, ‘Roodwitten’ and ‘The red white army’.

The first postings will be about previous seasons.
Fastticker is hanging.
And for some time on 100% now. The team is still doing well, finishing second in the league. Next step is improving my international results (and to lessen the gap with AGOVV, currently clearly the best time in the Netherlands).
For about 20 hours it says (fastticker) ‘next tick is x minutes’ where x is the time till the end of the hour. Then at the hour change it says ‘next tick in 1 hour and 0 minutes’ etc.
For mediumticker it’s the same but then six hours added.
Perhaps Damago is right and winter time has something to do with it?
There have been some ticks missing, haven’t there?
Ok, so I am still building up my team. Last season I became third, and got six euro league games as a bonus (lost most of them, but ok). So 6 games to get experience points and 3 games to make money.
This season I became second, which mean I will have to play a qualifier for the Champions League. Good chance I will lose. So it means I will get 2 games to get experience points, and 1 game to make money.
A team that is building up wants to get experience points and money. It would probably have been better for my team go lose some games on purpose, wouldn’t it? To become third in the league?
But it would have been better if I would not have this dilemma, and second (or first) place is just better than third.
Don’t know if it has been suggested before, but shouldn’t the losers of the Champions League qualification round qualify for the Europa League? Not only because it’s the case in real life, but also because it’s strange that a number three of a league can get more European games (even if they lose all their European Games) than the champion…
I noticed that my team in fastticker (PSV) often has more shots than the opponent, but still doesn’t win that often this season. The cause of this is easy to see if you look at the stats of the keepers of my opponents:
Telstar 9.5
Top Oss 8.8
Roosendaal 8.5
Vitesse 9.5
AGOVV 7.8
RKC Waalwijk 6.8
Willem II 9.0
NAC 8.5
Feyenoord 9.5
De Graafschap 8.5
NEC 7.5
Sparta Rotterdam 8.8
Fortuna Sittard 9.0
AZ 8.2
Heracles 8.0
Eindhoven 8.2
ADO Den Haag 9.0
Average more than 8.5
I don’t know what the average of all keepers is, but I do suppose it’s no more than 7.5 (I do think keepers get higher rates than field players). So for some reason a lot of keepers play one of their best games against my team. I guess it’s just bad luck?

This player has the following attributes:
Tackle: 70
Passing: 75
Shooting: 69
However, he is not a midfielder, but a DA. Is this a bug?
