Great feature that you can select 3 rival teams on your team page at web site.
What's the story of this - does it alter match commentary once you play a 'rival'? Or is it just a fun addition?

I have selected ARB and COW as my rivals so far. Anyone want to annoy me to become my 3rd team rival?

BUCKIE DAN- 09-04-2006
BUCs rivals so far are STE & ALO solely on the basis that their mangers are mates of mine...but I have one space left & was wondering if BUC have any real life rivals that are in SESL?

Richard B- 09-04-2006
Buckie Dan - Elgin would be Buckies "local" rivar's however as they play in the highland league and elgin are in third division there real game rivals would be anyone from Deveronvale, Fraserburgh or Nairn County.

Arbroath are my only rivals which arised from my old days in sesl, no other rivals although im sure i will make some more throughout this season!

Can't believe someones picking on COW! We're crap! Your nothing but a bull-y!! SESL/clap.gif

Saying that, we did dupe ye in our Cecil cup home match. Been the only highlight of a miserable season so far.

BUCKIE DAN- 09-04-2006
Cheers Richard...the 3rd slot goes to NAI then!!

Can't think how Falkirk came up with Arbroath... we always got so well with Tipps.

Ah, but add in the fact that they are now managed by former DUU boss, Craig - who we famously stuffed in the CECIL Cup last season (despite them being a top flight side!) - and maybe we find a personal reason which needs re-dressing SESL/wink.gif

A shame we were NMR for our league meeting earlier this season. But now this 'rivalry' between the two clubs is in the public domain we are confident that we will be top dog in as many aspects as we desire SESL/wink.gif

We look forward to Richie's fortunes turning around at Nairn as there is a long rooted rivalry here, they will remain our fiercest rival - but it is far too easy to mock when they are struggling to this extent - we almost feel a little sympathetic! Come on Rich, pick up a point so we don't feel guilty about bringing up our 'rivalry' as often as we feel is necessary in future press etc! rolleyes.gif

3rd spot still open at Arbroath. We thought about SM (as a former manager of the club) but think a club in the same division is more appropriate. I'm going to wade through some old press releases etc to see if anyone 'upset' us in any way, shape or form. Although I can't imagine this is possible as the boss at Arb is such a placid, easy going, friendly sort of chap! SESL/goodluckicon.gif

Love the rivals section, but sometimes you just feel like you want 20 rivals not just 3 - YOU@RE ALL &*$&*&*$&*$!!!

Gabbarelli- 09-05-2006

Gabbarelli, the Alex McLeish of SESL.

Just pretend yer taking a break and doing lots of research into other teams methods.

NMR? NMR!

Utter hogwash. ARB underestimated the FAL and thought they could take it easy and play passive. Your boys took a spanking Les.

Now this 'rivalry' between the two clubs is in the public domain we are confident that we will be top dog in as many aspects as we desire - GAME ON!

Can a future enhancement be MORE than 3 team rivals! :-)

I can see some dirty play starting around sesl to pick up some league points soon.

Gretna- 08-14-2007
I like idea your match vs a 'Rival' may lead to a bigger crowd and gate receipts.
Hope that can be added to sesl game sometime. SESL/goodluckicon.gif

George- 05-03-2008
I wonder if the team 'rivals' feature could be expanded on, so any scheduled fixtures where rivals met were flagged up on web site each week, but like the MVP automatically gets posted.

Idea about extra gate receipts is OK, but then some managers may change their rival teams every week to match their fixtures!

Steve Turner- 05-03-2008
Post it as a Task List Enhancement, George (Features button top right). Al probably won't see it was a priority but he does check these.

AI- 08-08-2008
I notice AIRDRIE popping up as a few teams 'rival'

Anyone got any stats on which team is picked as 'rival' most often?
Could be interesting I think, but too lazy to check all 48 teams!
