England National Team

Badge image
Hello All,
I am currently scouting for the NT, especially for the U-21's as we now only 2 players for the team. If you have someone you think will fit in either the senior or U-21 squad or you have sold someone abroad for big bucks please let me know.
Thanks Matt

U-21 update:
Lost first game against Romania 2-1. Slightly disappointing 2-0 win against Ukraine, should have scored a few more. Next: Whipping boys Moldova followed by managerless Azerbaijan. Big game deceider against Israel afterwards.

England crashed out of the European qualifiers on the 03/09/13.

Team M W D L + - = P
1 U21 Romania 5 5 0 0 33 3 30 15
2 U21 Israel 5 4 0 1 31 8 23 12
3 U21 England 5 3 0 2 21 9 12 9
4 U21 Ukraine 5 2 0 3 11 14 -3 6
5 U21 Azerbaijan 5 1 0 4 9 33 -24 3
6 U21 Moldova 5 0 0 5 3 41 -38 0

We had to beat Israel in our last game to qualify in 2nd place. We sadly lost 2-6.

I am fully aware that a bad workman blames his tools and maybe we didn't have the right tactics but one thing is for sure is that there are not enough active teams in the English leagues. It was fairly difficult to get a team together and unless something drastic happens with recruitment and retention I believe the future is looking bleak. Hopefully we can go a lot further the seniors.

If anybody has any questions or queries regarding the U-21's feel free to fire away.

Re: England National Team

You think it's hard for England lol.

I honestly think Scotland England Wales and Northern Ireland should be amalgamated in to The United Kingdom Of Great Britain. For leagues and NTs. Just hockey.

I might have to agree with you there Brian.

Re: England National Team

If it's hard for England, imagine for Ireland who has around 10 active teams and half of them don't even know how to train players correctly :)

This is why I would combine all the home Nations. England prob has 20 active teams 30 at most. Scotland about 6 to 8 N. Ireland about 2 or 3 and Wales 4 to 6. I left Ireland out as they are not part of the union.

Re: England National Team

Badge image
I have posted on the sugguestions page about combining all of the British teams together.Doubt anything would happen mind you, but I wonder if other nations would consider it ie. the French, Dutch and Belgians would do a Benelux League?

Re: England National Team

Badge image
It would make sense as I cant see hockey making any massive growth .

Re: England National Team

Badge image
Neither can I. Esp where Hockey isn't seen as a main sport.

Re: England National Team

Badge image
This is correct thinking, I would go for it.
I think its necessary to, post this idea and gather opinions from the biggest number of managers. Based on this results we can provide to the crew suggestion about such a league. I believe they want to keep users to be active an compete.

Re: England National Team

Especially if we keep spending our hard earned ££ here..

Re: England National Team

New players have been added to the senior squad. A few players have been removed.
If you think you have a player or two that should be included in the senior squad please post here or my GB please.
More friendlies have been booked / are being booked.
You will find our WC qualifying group under game news.
I'll let you know if anything else happens.

As most of you knew, we're through to the next round winning our group with ease.
It will most likely be Romania who wins this group and we're fighting Germany for second.
But one can never tell how it goes because the sim can be bizarre at times. :-)

1 England 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0
2 Germany 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0
3 Romania 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0
4 Peru 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0

Germany won their group over Estonia and Slovenia.
Romania ended second in their group after Brazil but ahead of Israel.
Peru also ended second in their group after Finland but ahead of Iceland.


First game is up against Germany in one weeks time. Our boys will now be on a diet of strong ale.

Re: England National Team

Badge image
Seems like the diet worked, England beat Germany with 1-4.
Updates about the game with come tomorrow.

Re: England National Team

Badge image
will come, stupid.

Re: England National Team

Badge image
I find it annoying that they managed to score once with only seven shots to the net, but the important thing here is that we won and now we have a good chance.
Our defenders did a good job stopping their wingers at our blueline, but still got some issues with some stupid passes in our own zone. I'll be anaylzing this abit more.
Apart from that I'm really satisfied with how we played against Germany, as they were our real challenge (sorry Scotland) in this WC.

Match Facts DE EN
Goals 1 4
Shots 7 30
Faceoffs Won 14 19
Faceoff Percent 42% 58%
Saves 25 6
Number of Penalties 1 0
Injuries 0 0

Goals:
Charles Gunn
Garry Deacon

Next game will be against Romania, I expect this game to be real difficult but let's not lose hope. :-)

The game: Semifinal against big and mighty Turkey will be a tough nut to crack open.
My NCAs and myself have been looking at their previous games to find out what they are playing like and I'm confident that we'll give them a run for their money tomorrow.

The roster: We've made some changes in our roster to counter the way Turkey are playing with their team. Let's just hope that we're able to crack it open and that we have some SIM-age with us.

GO ENGLAND!!

Re: England National Team

Sam Townson called in sick this morning, so Mick Smith will take his place and Dane Merrill will take the C spot in our fourth line.

Re: England National Team

Congrats on making the semi finals England. As this is not RL football I can safely say good luck I hope you bring on home the trophy to the UK.

As English commentators say when it's a Scotsman doing well .. ... .. it's nice to see a British team doing well :P

Re: England National Team

England got thrashed 1-7 by powerhouse Turkey. Hopefully we can reorganize and beat Denmark for third. Happy new year everybody!
