Hi All,
Let me start by saying this message is not intended as having a go at Malky here, far from it. I know he has a lot on his plate at the moment with getting online etc, which is fair enough.
I just feel it is getting a bit of a joke at the moment and making the game play very poor and frustrating. For instance I have just about managed to sheet, for the past couple of weeks with the time restrictions in place follwoing the late arrival of results.
Take this weekends cup game I had to quickly get a sheet in Friday night, without having my reserve results in, so did not know what fitness these players would have, so could not decide on who to bring up for the bench - so had to leave it. Yet with all that rushing we still await results and have another deadline in 24hrs to make.
What I propose is to put the game on ice, whilist Malky gets sorted or if people don't want to have the game on hold then maybe just play every fortnight until things are back to normal.
Not sure how everyone else feels about this, but I have been close to knocking it on the head if I'm honest, not only because of this but also because I am very busy at the moment and if you add these issues, I don't think I can give Munich 50% let alone 100%.
I hope you don't see this at having a go Malky, it's just I wanted to voice my concerns as I'm sure I'm not the only one struggling with the ramdomness at the moment.
Maybe it's because we have all been spolit with such a brilliant ran game, with results and dealines working like clockwork.

I know that it a bummer not having ur own internet at home and also with starting a new job as malky has he's doing stupid shift's but i reckon leave the game as it is, in true honestly john it takes me 5 mins to sheet and i work 10 hours a day and also run my family home looking after my son and my heavlily pregrenat fiancee. i know that it must be hard to sheet when you dont get results out ontime but i do belive that malky will sort this little problem out with in the next up and coming weeks. Putting the game on ice will only cause the season to run longer.( i want it to finsh quick as my season is crap lol ) what i think mite be a good idea untill malky sorts the internet issue out is to play the games at the weekend whether it be cup games or league games that way most people will have time to sheet # thoughts

I'm sure malky understands as he's changed the deadlines slighty. The man does a top job, just thought others might be having the same problems as I have. Although maybe I need to keep it that way after my 6-0 mauling of the once mighty Rangers!!

i didnt have internet for a couple of weeks, then when i got it back on, it had a knock on effect with all my games as well. so know exactly how it feels. just getting sorted now and its been nearly a week and a half.
so i can see how frustrating it would be for malky. we have the easy job, as criss says it takes 5 mins but understand how sum might find it hard with delayed results and deadlines. As not everyone has internet access daily and may assign a certain day/time to do there teamsheets.
its just a case of doing what we can really.

Twas worse than a mauling John , thanks for taking it easy on me !!
Struggling to sheet myself as i work mad hours and have a very demanding job , but sheeting takes 10 mins at most and thats putting effort in !
I can see where your coming from John, it is a struggle sometimes, but Malky has had problems rarely over the seasons and has still managed to keep things to a schedule of some sorts.
I am going to struggle in a few weeks as i will be in a similar situation to Malky , no Internet for possibly 4 weeks, switching providers and some work going on in the home.
Would be a liar if i said bowing out had'nt crossed my mind as i may or may not be able to sheet for the last half of the season.
Basically taking it a game at a time and hoping the 1 month is only 1 - 2 weeks.
Therefore i can sympathise with Malky Wholly , he has managed to run this site without internet, amazing !!!

I think Malky has to say what he thinks is best. If he wants to put the games on hold, or playing 1 game a week, I think every1 would understand.
Putting the games completely on hold is also an option, but wouldn't that make some managers leave the game? Maybe we can create some other game features to pass the time? For instance, can we auction some new players? That will give us some transfer action and some forum banter while we wait for Malky to settle things.

MALKY has already, phone a friend (Criss) and Even a 50-50, as we understand the complexities of his situation.
on occasions even "ask the audience" as we openly view our opinions.
maybe he needs a "Life line" some one to step up to the plate and help out? ?
i know funny!
teach me the game engine, i will help? (only thing i never tried lol)
but willing to give it a go?
