Anyone else have a relegation promotion play off today?

I have a relegation play off and currently 2-0 up after 5 mins

Zoran Wolfard gave his Southend the lead with 1 - 0, as he successfully challenged both the guests central defenders, then placed the ball unreachably at the goaltenders right post. Southend put their lead ahead another goal as Robert Parsonage struck home the 2 - 0 goal, after an attack from the left setting him up unmarked with the keeper.
 
Lost 3-1 in my promotion qualifier

If you look closely at Pez's Superstars and Steelfist in my division, you will see why I did not auto-promote this season and will not next.

I think it is one of the hardest Div VI's out there

BA I thought Debden Rockets would win my div after losing my first game of season 24 but I did it I won all my remaining games. Have faith are you continuing training defending this season ? if so why not switch to attacking half way through to surprise everyone then you will have the best defense in your league and then have a stronger attack that can only get better.
 
unlucky BA but keep the faith mate, a few good transfers and training and youll be up before you know it.

Cheers Birri, finished 5th this year opposed to 6th last. so 4th this year for me
 
Taken a look at my division, I'm going to need a lot of good luck.  The other team promoted from VI has a 5 star IM, and weighs in with 36 stars, gulp!
 
Using the two week gap wisely (I hope) to adjust my squad. Got plenty of 17/18 year old newbies and it seems to me there are plenty of bargains to be had if you are not impetuous. Any bidding wars are happily left to those with money.

Even my youth promotee this week wasn't too bad. May be no use to me as a forward but I'll see how he gets on in a couple of friendlies first.

Sorry for snapping at you yesterday, but I guess you will understand that I was a touch peeved.

I am indeed going to continue training defending this season, to the point when all of my defenders are at least to excellent. I may then change to scoring to get some new talent upfront, or maybe I'll go with playmaking as I already have two quite young excellent midfielders who I can build upon.

I really thought my formidable defence would hold out the oppo's weak attack, but c'est la vie.

BA,
I won playing 3-5-2
with 3 solid defs
2 solid wingers
2 solid 1 passable middie
1 solid 1 passable forward
I alternated between AOW & AIM
I had 2 serious teams one being Debden who I thougt would win after I lost to them but I stuck with it. The last game of the season against debden I MOT with AIM and my wingers were toward the middle boosting me up to poor midfield and that helped me win the match 4-3
I believe you can do it looking at your team and your two main opponents.

If I can pick up a couple of solid wingers I'll go with 3-5-2 and train playmaking after all my defenders have gotten to at least excellent. Which should be around mid next-sesason. I'm going to sell a couple of my trainees soon so that I can get some much needed cash in to invest in other positions.
