    ill make some predictions
    Swansea Vs Newcastle- Newcastle 4-2
    lecister Vs west ham- if west ham plays to they potential have 2-1 Hammers but will be very close. if tebow & The club dont show Lecister 4-0
    Man U Vs Liverpool - O Magic Johnny has said he had a secret weapon coming out for the Fa playoff whatever the hell that means. liverpool been up & down & if @That Bottleface is in net and is locked in bad news for liverpool. Man u 3-0
    Palace vs Spurs- 4-3 Palace if spurs have a shot to pull the upset @Fatal Enjoyment & @Gotze l 9 l need to have a big game but i think @DiabeticRage24 pulls game winner since hes been playing like steph curry

    No I hear ya, and I agree. But we're not even close to a good team. If it wasn't for a super weak league, we'd be in bottom half for sure. We beat up on the mid/bad teams. Didn't do much against the upper ones.

    West Ham....biggest underperformer of the season. Had all the money and contract players lined up, nothing to show for it.

    Good writeup Nubsy, can't please everyone all the time.

    Considering other leagues have a completely different signing system, this part is horrifically misleading. LGFA is designed in a completely different way on how you get players on the team. This means weaker teams, but it also means weaker players who wouldn't make it onto a team in other leagues get a chance to play in competition. It's a trade-off that makes this league unique, but don't expect any single LGFA team to compare to other league teams. There will always be a TON of bad players and bad teams in every LGFA season, but there usually is at least a few people on each team that have the skill to surprise anyone.

    Though as well in your defense, the only teams I told Everton at the beginning (and all the way through) of the season that I was worried about was Crystal Palace and West Ham. I don't care if West Ham went to 7th in the season, if the possibility of having to defend against Thibeault and Kevinho together with CKlassen locking down the net doesn't make you crazy nervous every time you face that team, you haven't been around long enough.

    Oh no doubt, but I also kinda knew the pieces wouldn't all play together with conflicts and such.

    To better portray it, I just think past seasons in LGFA had stronger teams than this one. That's going back to season 1 through now.

    If Crystal Palace plays the way they did against Man City, They will most definitely lose

    I doubt they'll be playing the same GK, and also won't be playing against an any controlling 7+ players. Totally different game.

    LMAO! As soon as I heard the scoreline I was expecting this. Congrats. CP most certainly did not play their best 11, but you took advantage of that and, shy one goal, reversed my prediction. Maybe I shouldn't have gotten you so hyped up to play them, eh. Enjoy the win. Good luck against Man U and in the final if you get there. Honestly rooting for you all the way with that showing.

    P.S. I'm fat ass, crutch-holding, binnoculars-having Cartman in this one :)

    your alright nubsy ! I don't usually talk shit unless its laing. I was ticked off that day about something else and after looking at your prediction, instead of just disagreeing I went off on a rant that was unnecessary and uncalled for. There was no reason for me to get all personal and I apologize. I do appreciate you volunteering your own time to report about the league. That being said I did think we match up well against crystal palace based on previous games against them, whether its because of the personnel or their approach during the game. Them not having their gk shouldn't have stopped them from scoring goals and I thought we did a good job of containing their front 4-5 across 2 games. I just hope we can leave this behind and move on.

    P.S I was going to apologize after tonight's games no matter the result. yes it did fuel us that not many outside our team thought we stood a chance.
