@fortebettor Most of you simply pay for a pool and then disappear without reading or following up on the thread

Yup, this sums it up perfectly. Also means that there's no reciprocity - the user does not want to give anything back to the sponsor/community by remaining active.

They crawl back only when they have something to complain about.

Still on my wide stroll through the forum continues for some pool of interest and this seems relatable in some thread to what is expected of certain genre of users as debated. Though with a different theme but still talks about participation on the forum thus, thread. Where users would just come for the pool only to crawl back out upon conclusion with little or no participation and throw some shady tricks.
@Igebotz @cryptofrka could relate, don’t want to be hitting the nails directly.

The thread should be made to serve its purpose as, being informative as it could get, a user that keeps up with the thread would be surly informed without dramatization.

From what has been discussed and referenced, suggestions and to decisions made where done considering possible cases of participation which should make understanding a lot easier and acceptable with that context.

I would have preferred that we rest and focus solely on league games rather than go abroad for an unnecessary Milky trophy. Arsenal and Tottenham needs it more.

Nah, that's not how you create serial challengers.
Losing in Israel or Serbia has to become unimaginable, so that it creates pressure. Pressure creates resilience, resilience creates winning mentality.

Knockout games, no matter how insignificant, are high-stakes. And winning any final builds confidence.

If you want to create a monster team, you want all competitions that you can get your hands on and you set on winning them all at the beginning of each season. There's not a single serial winner that plays only domestic championship.

Extra minutes advantage for the young players but winning random abracadabra tier E teams from Europe Top 5 is not the monster challenge Palmer and the rest of the players needs right now honestly. We're only going to have more injuries and fatigue.

We're better off without the Conference league - The Europa league was the perfect challenge for this team. I don't know how the players feel but I feel no passion and so empty for that Conference league thing.

Without Europe you need a squad of 17 players - which leaves a lot of players frustrated. And next year when CL comes, you need those players. You can't sell these and then buy 7 new ones a year later.

Positive for most of our U21 players coming off loan, and for our academy players, I don't really care if we don't pay more attention to it, but getting knocked out by some team from Israel or Serbia will automatically hand us over to our rival fans.

They crawl back only when they have something to complain about.

They're only interested only in the prize pool and the weekly free bets obviously.

Not going to Europe is preferable to going to a conference league and playing against a bunch of unknown teams, wasting the players time. The net positive is that if we win the conference league, we become the only team in history to have won every European trophy.

Nah, top clubs need Europe - any kind of Europe.
It's not so much for winning an irrelevant trophy - it serves to give minutes to a wider specter of players and to remain in a Sunday - Wednesday rhythm that you hope to have again next season in CL/EL.
Getting used to that kind of rhythm which doesn't allow much rest and preparation between games is key to future CL/EL success.

Sacking of Pochettino is look like Todd Boehly not learning from his past mistakes, and he is still having mind-set to have instability into this club which will cause serious troubles for them in the future with most chances if we are having not deserved results he needs to leave this club and soccer forever.

Looking at how many players reacted to the news, there weren't many, and there were a few clips of Poch publicly disrespecting Todd Boehly, as well as news that his relationship with Stewart and members of the recruiting team had broken down since the last transfer, his relationship with the club wasn't great, and both parties were no longer comfortable working for each other. It is understandable.

Enzo, the Leicester City manager, appears to be the key man today, with personal terms and a compensation package agreed on. He is a former student of Pep's and also bald. Next season, I'll be there to challenge for the title

@fortebettor Most of you simply pay for a pool and then disappear without reading or following up on the thread; we considered the prize pool and settled on ONLY 10 places this season. Although I suggested 20th place, but majority wanted only 10 spots, and we all agreed; it wasn't a secret.

20 people were supposed to win. In the next season, if you win and take the first place, I suggest that you change the rules 10 rounds before the end when you know more or less who won to change the pot only for the winner.

I do not see anywhere in what you shared that it was explicitly stated there would be 20 winners. Nothing was set in stone from the beginning, it was all dependent on how many players joined the pool at the end of the day:

Quote from: hilariousandco on July 06, 2023, 06:16:06 AM

The first place jackpot prize will be a guaranteed 0.1BTC and then the rest of the money will be split between 2nd-10th places. If we get 50 users signing up that will be a further 0.125 in the pot so there should be over 0.3 in total.

This suggests more that we should have expected 10 winners from the get go.

So I decided for simplicity to just go with the same top ten payouts as we did last year:

0.1
0.05
0.04
0.03
0.02
0.015
0.014
0.013
0.012
0.011

= 0.305

What's left after fees will go to the highest overall weekly round (ten match rounds or less are only counted). First place is currently Colorpoll54 who got 23 points all the way back from the first round, so that's who you need to beat. There are 8 rounds left to play.

Would that be as fair as what you have just done? Did someone write this or is everyone licking their ass? Why can't you just set the rules and stick to them, but just get creative?

You're mistaken. It literally states ten places:

The payouts you quoted were given as an example and also literally state it was for the previous season. I didn't post the actual paid places until later in the season but that's why I decided to stick to the same as last seasons, just minus the top 11-20th places as already stated. I wouldn't change how many people got paid mid season if I stated it was more but that's not what it was.

Ouch Igeh mine bosom padi, I just realised the damned Red Devils are in Europa, at your expense. Onana (and hey I've defended the guy in the past) and Antony don't deserve Europe, not at the expense of Palmer. Such is football. And now we have the full lineup of Premier League teams. I can now close the book on this league for a few more months.

Lol Those bastard citizens sold us out to their lovely neighbour, and it was one of the worst games I've seen City play this season; they didn't come to win.

I totally agree that Palmer deserved a better finish after his performance this season, he is going places.

Agreed but he's winning us the league next season. Don't say anything just believe.

There is no doubt Citizens done shameful act at the end and allow Red Devil's to have spot into Europa League which I was also not expecting with their performance like they give in this season, but now we have to accept this all and looking forward into future where things are looking interesting.

Sacking of Pochettino is look like Todd Boehly not learning from his past mistakes, and he is still having mind-set to have instability into this club which will cause serious troubles for them in the future with most chances if we are having not deserved results he needs to leave this club and soccer forever.

well, he did say they did not deserve their league finish some weeks back and they are only in that position, above Newcastle and United cause of luck, so United totally deserved Europa league football, and I honestly mean that last part.
They made City who just came off a very long win streak in the league and were almost flawless all through, look clueless. Erik ten Hag out-coached Pep on the day something very few coaches managed to do this season and beat Liverpool on the way to their FA cup victory. United deserved it, but no thanks to Onana and Anthony.

I totally agree that Palmer deserved a better finish after his performance this season, he is going places.

The only time we parked the bus, we won everything in Europe, so we're not the same.

I do not remember Conte or Mou (second spell) winning you anything in Europe and those were your peak "packing bus" era. You seem not to know your own history.

What's the point of playing wonderful football if you aren't going to win trophies? The league is ended, and no one remembers how brilliantly you played us this season, but I do recall raping your "Good ebening" team in Baku. Grin

You mentioned something about elite mindset earlier this is bottom of the table mindset. It is one thing to change your style in one match like Arsenal and Madrid did this season, but to enter every match, even against bottom of the table side and defend the way Chelsea used to do, that was terrible.

Almost time for you to cheer Man City so you can at least get a Europa league spot.

City - 26
Chelsea - 21

For comparison: the ratio of Liverpool and Arsenal is quoted as 1000 to 1. I don’t really believe in justice and in the fact that a cheating club will be expelled from the Premier League, probably it’s just bookmakers trying to get money from simpletons?

This is nonsense. Even if they get expelled (they won't) that's not the same as relegation. I'd love to have a beer with the guy who bets on City/Chelsea relegation...

If they are sent directly to the championship, then this will not be a relegation, yes. But if they receive a fine like Everton, but for example -115 points and are relegated from the Premier League at the end of the season, then technically it will be 100% relegation.

Better tell me, are the quotes for relegation from the Premier League for Chelsea and City nonsense or do they really make sense?

Have you considered TV rights and the money the English FA would lose if City and Chelsea were relegated? They would be in the same level with the French league. Relegation is never an option; this isn't the Italian league. We are talking about the world's most corrupt football association here
~

I think it’s not a matter of TV rights, the league will survive just fine without City (maybe even be more interesting), but the fact that City and Chelsea, having received a fair punishment, will simply go to the Super League with Real and Barcelona and this will be the end of UEFA.
Overall these bastards have reached the "too big to fall" stage.

I did not celebrate a draw at Etihad, I took a decent point which was a good result at the time. Rodri whinges every-time a club does not play the way they do. He did it after the Madrid match too. There are different ways to play football, you support Chelsea that is renowned for packing the bus over the years, you should even be the last person talking about style of play, especially not to Arsenal that has always played a beautiful brand of football.

The only time we parked the bus, we won everything in Europe, so we're not the same. You parked the bus to finish 2nd, but I parked it to win trophies. What's the point of playing wonderful football if you aren't going to win trophies?

You do realize we have won MORE THAN DOUBLE the EPL trophies Chelsea has.

You only have 3 Premier League titles and 10 Nazi-era league cups (you were probably not present). There are reasons why those titles are not stored in the same cabinet. When you show 2006 kids what you won before their grandparents went on their first date, you expect them to take you seriously and wonder why you have no pull. I have double of your EPL titles not the other way round.

I don't support either team but Arsenal, lately, are exciting to watch. They always had a good fast team but after Wenger, they just seemed so Spursy, you know? Like everyone was bullying them.

Not anymore. Arteta has the brutal strength of Everton, he took it to Arsenal, and now took it to the club's training.

Now just get rid of Jesus and put it someone more tough Tongue

United City tonight to close the chapter of England. Mouthwatering Red Devils @9.20 at Sportsbet!
