Media Sweet FA: Three Things I Learnt This Week - S29 Edition: Now With 50% More Melts!

[The Filth Wizard]

The Filth Wizard

Does it really matter?

We are setting the expansion teams up to fail if we expect them to be the strongest posting teams in the league from the get go. They are going to take time to develop and get a strong team together. The intitial teams get the off the ground.. Then like any team in the league, some will stick around and some players will lose interest, and guess what? They'll get new players.

You're jumping the gun here. It was a poor showing, in an exhibition between both clubs. They know it. They also know it blew up a bit more when the sim started.

We've already got teams that aren't the most engaging for a whole week. Do we need more?

Either way, I've seen enough as has my team. We'll see how other clubs vote.

 

[Barrybran]

Nah, that's not right. Ant Bear made his choice and it was vetoed.

Since then we've heard nothing.

No, it appears he has made his choice however his language is unclear as he has also "recommended" that the committee accepts these bids but is yet to call a vote for us to do so. As things currently stand, no decision has been made on expansion.

 

[The Filth Wizard]

I worry some aren't thinking what is best for the League - Yes.

I'm worried some might not know what is good for the league and are arguing for their own agendas.

 

[Headless]

Specifically Filth, mang and TIF?

I think you're well off the mark mate, particularly with respect to those posters listed.

Ha ha, I'll give you that.

Well, let's just say in a million words he kind of maybe gave the impression he gave the go ahead, and acknowledged it would be vetoed so just in case a veto and a second and a third are placeholders.

 

[Metalcrusher]

I'm going to correct Filthy here. The clubs have not been asked to vote on expansion yet and no clear decisions have been made to be vetoed.

Nothing like bringing the BC to heel Baz.

Maybe because they knew many had already made up their mind?

I disagree Bono, I think those posters want what's best for the league. They are just thinking worst case scenarios that are unlikely to even happen.

 

[Barrybran]

It's not about bringing BC to heel. Filthy is an experienced member of this board and I value his opinion. But I also value clear communication and so it appears we know what's going on but clarity has been sought.

 

[The Filth Wizard]

So what? That would be a bigger call to arms would it not?

 

[Metalcrusher]

Wut? Can you specifically say again all after this bit ... "he kind of maybe gave the impression he gave the go ahead"

Then give an empahatic statement ... on behalf of AB ... "he kind of maybe gave the impression he gave the go ahead"


I call bullshit on your bullshit Filthy.

True

Maybe because it was only an exhibition match?

Depends on the aristocracy ....

Things change Filth whether you like them or not.

Alright,

And I will apologise now.

Sorry for that post. It was out of line.

100% this.

They need to have 6 players to not post , so they have fillers for their 2nd season, if they are forced to have 26 odd active posters from the start.

Mate, clearly I'm playing along with Barry and the directionless spiel the committee was given by the admin in relation to what he thought of the bids.

Enough of us have read it that he was approving the bids for it to actually be vetoed and backed up twice.

The only bullshit is from the admin who for another day has given no clear directive on our next step, albeit forgivable as some shit is going bad IRL for him.

I always find it adorable how profound you think you are.

 

[The Filth Wizard]

True

Exhibition match maybe. As a committee member making a choice in their viability I prefer showcase or audition.

 

[Harvey Manfrenjensenden]

I did the same on the poddy

its about the comoooonity, it’s about peeeeeeeeople

hic

Out of curiosity what was the vote from the Demons LG in the end?

 

[TRUMAN#1]

Honestly, I don't have my own agenda.

[pantskyle]

The two expansion bids were frankly just awful.

I bow to the brave committee for standing up against a corrupt admin. The league is safe for another day.

 

[TRUMAN#1]

Anyway.

How boring would the League be if we all greed with each other.

Apologies for my drunken rant.

****. You.

You never apologised to me once for ranting at me like this in PM's about this shit over the last month. Why the **** do they get an apology and not me?!?!?!?
