The Founders Cup

[Pontefract City]

Well how did you all fare in round 1? I managed to win 6-3 away from home against a fairly inactive division 7 Swedish team.

No game, I had a bye. phippard's Everton Eagles are out, got hammered 5-0 at home by a Swede. That's the only other result I know about.

 

[pauly]

9983 teams entered.

13 rounds means 8192 teams exactly, so about 1791 teams need to be knocked out before we get the right number.

Or something like that!

 

[Bluecoaster]

I had a bye.

[Ash]

I got a bye too. I wonder how they decided which teams got a bye?

 

[Essendon BFC]

lol I know nothing about hockey and my tactics are crap.

Im expecting to get my arse kicked my a swede.

 

[Glorious]

yeah same i just hope i win!

 

[Budge]

mwahahaha 10-1 thumping...im out

 

[Glorious]

you need a lot of work on your team! My match is 2morrow

 

[Essendon BFC]

The Last 2 league Matches I have played I have lost 7-1 and 5-1. So in a cup Im expecting to lose by more. Im playing a Division 7 Swedish Team. Expecting to lose by 5 goals.

 

[kangle4]

it is a rip off that some teams get a bye and others have to play, mz hockey is stupid and not just for this reason!!!

 

[Essendon BFC]

That happens in MZ Soccer to.

 

[Pontefract City]

Well I ain't complaining because:

A) I got quite a straightforward task so a comfortable win
I got ranking points

 

[Ash]

yeh I'd rather have played than had a bye. An extra game so extra money. Not bothered by ranking points though.

 

[Bluecoaster]

Agreed...after straight 7 league losses, my ranking just CAN'T be good

Blue

 

[pauly]

A fantasic 6-4 victory for Bethnal Gren and Hackney!

 

[Essendon BFC]

Lost 8-0

 

[DasKlee]

just advanced to round 3 with a huge 10:0 away win against a weak romainian team which looked kind of inactive to me...
i hope i won't play against a swedish team in the next round...

 

[Ash]

I lost 4-3 away against some Belgium team. I probably would have won it if it was at home.

They were winning 3-0, before I pulled it back to 3-3. But they scored a winner in Period 4 (is that like extra time?)

 

[DasKlee]

i guess it's some kind of sudden death overtime but it could also be a little bug.. i had 2 friendly league games where it said 'Period 4' even though the games were no draws...
