FFS UEFA Hockey World Cup – The Friendlies

12 September 2014 470 comments

Elniñorules

This international break marked the launch of FFS UEFA’s latest team game, the FFS Hockey World Cup 2014. All the 12 teams have completed their recruitment and they are now ready to rumble. You can check out the player composition on the Squads Page.

What Next?

GW4 beckons. And with that – friendlies are here. Each team has challenged/been challenged to a friendly, which will allow teams to warm up their players and the management to test out their selection policy. The six fixtures are as below:

Belgium vs New Zealand

Netherlands vs Australia

England vs South Africa

Malaysia vs South Korea

Germany vs Spain

India vs Argentina

Lineup Submission

All managers are requested to email me their four substitutes and their FPL IDs before the deadline of Friday, 12 Sep, 2359 BST. In case he or she fails to do so, the autosubs will be the last four players on the Squads Page.

Managers may also be likely to post any pressers on this article here. So be on the watch for latest team news, especially from your enemies.

As previously, please keep all the match day banter on this thread. And if you haven’t checked out The Fantasy Freak’s new quiz initiative to further fuel the team spirit in this arena, do so now – TFF’s Quizzes are back with a twist.

Let the pre-matchday drama begin!

The Belgian camp has a lovely laid back atmosphere on the eve of the friendly.
Chilled beers, chocolate and the shiny zimmer frames all in a row parked out front, Sons of Anarchy-style.

      Civic integration is intended for foreigners aged 18 and more who come to Flanders or Brussels to reside there for a long period. The target group of the civic integration policy also includes Belgians who were not born in Belgium and at least one of whose parents was not born in Belgium.
      
      All persons integrating have a right to a civic integration programme. Moreover, certain categories are obliged to take a civic integration programme. These categories are:
      
      persons who recently emigrated to Belgium and have taken up residence in Flanders;
      
      ministers of religion in a local church or religious community, recognised by the Flemish authorities.
      
      The civic integration obligation does not apply in Brussels. Citizens of a European Union Member State, the European Economic Area and Switzerland and their family members are exempt from the obligation. This exemption does not apply to family members of Belgians or to persons integrating holding the Belgian nationality who have recently taken up residence in Flanders.
      
      Persons integrating who have a civic integration obligation and fail to comply with this obligation, as well as persons integrating who are entitled to integrate and fail to comply with the terms of their civic integration contract, can be subject to an administrative fine. The system of administrative fines does not apply in the Brussels Capital Region.

  In Belgium, we don't rush things or panic. We have a beer, consider, have another beer and then reconsider. Then we have a beer and Mull things over and make refinements. We may indulge in sex with our various partners if it pleases us, have another beer (or 10), and only then do we submit our starting 11.
  
  You know it makes sense 🙂

    As a Belgian I actually ended up drinking a Scottish beer this night: Punk IPA.
    Quite different from the Belgian stuff I drink usually and damn expensive!

Morning all

I've just dropped in to wish Espana the very best of luck in the friendly against Germany, if the Germans turn up, that is. They don't stand a chance against a team that trains on jamón ibérico de bellota! Vamos Amigos!

We have got big names on the bench this week to give you lot a chance.

Oh Crap!

Mega Drama on the morning of the friendlies "MrCadburiesParrot" is a dud!

We recruited a player who had last seasons fpl ID on his link... which this season translated to a very good player. Alas he updated it and he is an average player (no offense...so am I!). We were waiting for a "Ben" to email the team. When our accidental signing emailed us we didnt recognise the name or like the team so turned him away.

Now we're left with someone's screen name who thinks he's not in the tourney and some very good players points who knows nothing about the tournament...

I have emailed ENR would anyone object to us replacing the Parrot this morning or are we stuck with perma-bench fodder?! 🙁

Bugger!

    our scouting process was honestly not run like that at all. In honesty we had several targets for the last spot that we waited and waited on but we couldnt contact them and others didnt want to play the tourney. it ended up being very last minute for the last spot... appreciate you beig cool with it and we'll make sure its not gonna be a wildcarder
