Lol, forgot about Bologna - which is a bit silly considering there are 2 of you there! icon_rolleyes.gificon_biggrin.gif

As aaberdeenn showed I'm only running leagues from those countries. I'm also running myself as a manager in Wales in holiday mode, so I've got 19 leagues running. Don't think my pc could have taken much more to be honest.

So unfortunately the Scottish Prem and French top div missed out. Those of you have been / still are stuck in the likes of Austria and Bulgaria, they weren't anywhere near my list of priorities for league running! icon_biggrin.gif

It doesn't really matter it's just nice to see. Only international matches matter.

Oh well never mind, noticed earlier that Arthur Li the other Bologna player is from Montenegro, slightly ironic that out of all 53 available countries Serbia and Montenegro end up at the same club. I think it is anyway icon_smile.gif

Yeah exactly, I'm trying to limit the amount of domestic news I give out as this sign up is based more on international performances. icon_smile.gif

This does remind me though, Ben Arsenal, even though Charlton finished 20th in the Premier League last season, they are in the UEFA Cup for the forthcoming season as they lost in the FA Cup final to Liverpool 3-1.

Sorry, Haven't posted in a couple of days icon_biggrin.gif

Not the best first half of the season at sampdoria, only 1 sub apperance icon_frown.gif (although I did manage to score) icon_smile.gif

On Loan to Livorno, 13 apperance and 4 goals. icon_smile.gif

Both Sampdoria and Livorno get relegated. icon_frown.gif

14 International Caps icon_smile.gif

But only 1 international goal icon_frown.gif

My are looking abit better icon_smile.gif

Also I was wondering whether you are going to do a table of total point for the players, as well as just for each season, so we could see who has done best over the whole career??
