    if needed i'll get theresonlyoneweknow to play as well. but since he welched on challenging and accepting last season, I don't know if he should be allowed.

    If you could post your team name, division and country that helps me bookmark the teams in Battrick.

    I plan to post this in KC Metro Fed in Hattrick as that produced a number of teams last time.

    This worked out really well last season with groups w/4 teams per group. Winners adavancing to the next stage.

    I anticipate this starting battrick week 8, but that may change depending on how many sign up and who is still left in their domestic cup.

    So for now, keep signing up and I'll keep you posted as regards a website and cup format.

    All suggestions are welcome also.

    We will probably not have much success defending our title, as fitness concerns will necessitate using a "B" squad.

    I'll need some basic rules here...I'm assuming this is like the Hattrick cup where we're only allowed X starters. What's X?

    Actually there are NO restrictions on starters. You can play whatever line up you like in this friendly cup.

    Rock on, cos the only players I have other than my basic lineup suck horribly and they're only there because the game won't let me fire them.

    However, with personal fitness being what it is, it will probably turn out that you will want to use subs for some of your players.

    Absolutely. But as far as our cup rules go, there are no restrictions on starting XI.

    Woo-hoo, my yellow card has gone away :)

    Today was the end of week 4. After everyone has played 7 league matches, I will remind everyone that the Sunday after the week 8 league matches our cup will start.

    We have to cater for the large number of teams still in their domestic cups, by week 8 most should be out.

    Did I forget to sign up for this? Oops.

    Martinique Serpents
    West Indies II.1, if it's not too late. If it is, well, I've learned a valuable lesson.

    Getting my ass handed to me in the Windies Cup today, so it looks like my Sundays are going to be free.

    Hmmm, we can put you on stand-by?

    If someone doesn't make the right challenge in week 1, they are out and you are in!

    I doubt that will happen as 18 of the 20 teams were in it last time. The newcomers will be watched carefully, however. :)

    No problem. I thought I had an Elite 8 team in the Windies this year, and, well, Borderliners sure gave me a reality check.

    Borderliners are one of the top four teams in the country IMO, so there's no shame in that.
