“Good game overall. My problem with fouling when you're gonna win obviously differs wiith your strategy. Not a big deal seeing as no one was actually hurt by it. Just my opinion. Sorry if I came off as a sore loser, not my intent. Anyway, like I said, an overall good game against a good coach.”
“It was a good game, but once again the whole FOULING ISSUE rears it's ugly head.
Now I shut out zurg's DP in the 1st half. He managed to get off 1 DP foul, and I left the ref on him. Standard no DP tactics. I managed to steal the ball + get free to score against the drive. All in all I got away with kicking the ball very lightly.
In the second half I got on top zurg's boys early on + I laid into them. For some reason Zurg left his DP off the pitch. All the better for me. And when I'm on top don't expect me to move next to your players + dance around them whilst they are prone. I'm gonna try to BURY your team. Its time to meet my friend called PAIN!
Good job your regen was firmly ON eh zurg? :)
SO.........ON TO EXCESSIVE FOULING......
Is it anal? possibly.
Is it unsportsmanlike? Mabye.
Is it within the rules? YES
Is it satisfying + fun all rolled into one? HELL YES!!!
Turn 16 fouls are fine in my book. They are even better if they are thrown out of BITTERNESS + REVENGE!
Bring on the foulers! I played Paul Hicks when I was a noob + I behaved poorly (sry Paul!). I thought fouling was anal. Well I have since SEEN THE LIGHT MY BROTHERS....TESTIFY!
I do owe Paul a rematch at some point........FOULFEST!!!
Come on people, the essence of this great game is the potential for CARNAGE + DEATH that can be inflicted! If you want pure 'football' then go play that John McWhatever his name is game 2007/6/5 etc. on the PS2.
As I said to Zurg, my objectives on the pitch are SCORE + KILL. In no particular order.
that said, it was otherwise a good game against a nice enough coach. thanks Zurg!
