Do you have a link for the Egyptian League? I wasn't able to start yesterday, my laptop kept freezing.

It is on the SI Forums. I'll have a look.



And Dink, the sad smileys are simply not up to scratch or I would have posted that.

Not the point, I dislike the fact you guys are doing the Pentagon challenge while starting at major clubs. The pentagon should always be started unemployed with minimal reputation, or else it defeats the whole purpose of the challenge as realistically you could win the challenge in 5 seasons if you start off as Barcelona.

Ill try again with a shit club.

I wouldn't call Al Ahly that major. I could have easily started at Fenerbache or Galatasaray.

But the thing I prefer about this to the Pentagon Challenge is that:



A. You don't start unemployed.



B. I have the patience to do this but not the pentagon.

Fine, like I said, this competition it is not my cup of tea.

Ok.



You do know nothing's stopping you doing it like The Pentagon, or starting at a poor club

Think I'll start this later,Pip if you could drop the link for the eygptian league here I'd appreciate it.

I think I used this one.

Started as LA Galaxy. The MLS is weird, what the hell is a draft?

All my best players are leaving.



Really need to jump ship after this season. Get the Egyptian League title under my belt first

Think I'll start as Santos.

You go and do it then, start with Barca and win the Champions League in 5 continents in 5 seasons, I look forward to you posting the results on here.

Set up a friendly tournament to kick start the season

Another bit of Silverware to add to my collection.

Starting this now i will tell you who i have started with .

The MLS


They have a wage cap, so I've had to release some players to be put on the 'waive' list, and now my squad only has 18 in it. Why can't the fat Yanks just play normal soccer?

Because our rules are just not good enough. Americans are awkward. Like the way they pronounce words for example:



A bristish person would say, "I am a vegetarian"



An American would say, "I am a veegan"



The USA is very complicated.

Not a single American is a vegetarian I can assure you.

I've been to America and saw around 10 people who I would class as obese



95% of Nauru's population is obese.

I'm in the African Hall Of Fame after just one season .



Retained the league.

I'll start mine tomorow,I expect I'll be Santos.

And now I have won the Egyptian Cup.



3 cups in one season and the final of another.

Oooh, Penarol want me, but the Chairman says he will wait on the future of the current manager.



Gonna big the current manager up.

I'm running out of players. I only have a squad of 19, and I have 7 players out injured, 4 of them for 2 months or more

The States sound fun .



I have won everything there is to win at Al-Ahly. I think South America is the next place as all the Turkey jobs are stable.

It's been pretty fun so far actually, just the rules are really annoying



The season runs from April to November in 2010, yet the CONCACAF Champions League I think starts in August 2010 and ends in April 2011, so it runs over 2 seasons
