FIFA 08 – THE OFFSIDE CUP – DAY 1

By: Dave Martinez | March 12th, 2008

Hey guys and gals,

I have a few league updates after day one.

No, I wont be bombarding you daily with FIFA 08 messages, but todays the first day, so why not!

The participation so far has been great – at last count, 20 people already signed into the tournament today, with others to follow shortly. If your groups participants are slow to register (as is the case in Groups F and B), I will be rounding them up shortly.

***** REMINDER: If a player is inactive for a period of 5-7 days, that person, under my discretion, will be banned from the tourney and replaced. I am FULHAM in every group – only GROUP A will play me. Other groups – I am the league MOD. *****

Thank you all for making day 1 a great success.

Group D -

papanoels – RED BULL NEW YORK 1 – 3 greygooseguzla – Fiorentina

GROUP E

Tubby Suckersen – Tottenham 0 – 1 – boomb0ts2 – Juventus
Tubby Suckersen – Tottenham 3 – 0 irishoutsider – Chicago Fire
- I was told that Keane scored the hat trick to put down Chicago. Come on – who can beat that?!

GROUP G

eszo4 – Roma 1 – 0 Roven1 – Barcelona
- Biggest upset of the day. The invincible Barcelona shows a human side.

GROUP H

This has been our most active group of DAY 1.

aslothwithaidss – Aston Villa 0 – 0 J A K – Sevilla
danmar1 – Villareal 0 – 4 aslothwithaidss – Aston Villa
aslothwithaidss – Aston Villa 3 - 0 Handsome Hubby – Toulouse FC
danmar1 – Villareal 0 – 1 Handsome Hubby – Toulouse FC

And it looks like Aston Villa is well on its way to qualification, leaving the rest of the field wide open.

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

EXCELLENT Day 1! I look forward to some more exciting games!

  Yeah well, i (barcelona) lost to roma 1-0, it was a VERY tight game, where of us had about 2 or 3 shots on the bar or posts. So tbh it could go either way, too bad for me, he scored in the 94th minute of the game and won. But gg.
