Sorry in advance for this little ego-trip, but I'm happy and proud to announce that after more than 14 years of playing (creation date: 20/05/2010), more than a hundred seasons, several dozen seasons spent spawning against golgoths in the Ile-de-France league (owned by Lecastor) or the Asian league (Paul1234 and especially that devil Magpie), I've FINALLY won my first "major" trophy, namely a league cup (Burgundy)! Well, with two penalty shoot-outs in the 1/2 and final, but who cares!
So here's the thing: even with a fully trained team, without being a blind enthusiast (a few dozen euros spent over 14 years mainly on reattribution and a nice Vietnamese national team jersey), you can get there. It may take a (very) long time, we'll never win the LdC (where I can't wait to be split in two next season by NG99s present and active from the 1st to the 90th minute of the match) but it's possible!

Congratulations bastion, well deserved, you've been managing well over the last few seasons

Congratulations Bastoun! A well-thought-out team that also scores a lot of points in ie! Hats off to you!

Congratulations Bastoun! Even if you don't have the best team, you often win your matches with your tactics! Well done, mate!

Congratulations and long life

Congratulations!!!

Congratulations on your title

Oh, is the level that low in Burgundy???
I'm just kidding, bravo Bastoun, I told you in a PM that you deserved to win major titles. I'm sorry to have stood in your way for so long, but you really are a formidable opponent.
I'm really happy for you :)

I look forward to seeing you again, in IE, or even in LdC!

Congratulations again

Congratulations on the title! Bonne continuation à toi sur d'autres challenges que j'espère ils ne dureront pas 14ans haha

And through this post, I'd also like to encourage Papy to win the D1 - poor guy, he's aged on VF (I knew him with hair, now he's bald and still no D1) haha

Ahah cool, let's have a drink... GG Bastoun, a pint for me

Congratulations!
i'm really going to have to watch out for you on 08

You call that a "full training team" ???? I know a lot of people who would love to have a team like that. I'm the first, especially for my upcoming finals! But congratulations on your title.

Brutus: Ahah cool, on va boire l'apéro... GG Bastoun, une pinte pour moi ;)

(je dis ça pour le 34 à ton pseudo)... mais obligé d'aller en Bourgogne pour gagner un titre !? ... j'ai bien fais de quitter l'Yonne à mes 14ans (que des faibles là-bas) pour le... 34 !!! ;)

Je déconne... la bise à la Team Bourgogne ;)

I should point out that my wife and I go to the Morvan a lot, we even have a small country house there, which fully justifies my participation in the Burgundy championships! But I take full responsibility for having checked the winners of the last 10 championships to make sure that it wasn't the same grosbill who was taking all the titles ^^ Because no, no Elite championship is easy. But some are more open than others! And the 2 I mentioned above, as locked championships, they're right up there ^^

Otherwise, Clamsi, don't panic: I'm totally counting on the Visa problems encountered by our New Zealand opponent to get me through the 1st round of our VFifa Cup without too much trouble! So you'll probably get the B too^^

Congratulations :)

nice work

Congratulations

Congratulations

PEPSI: T'appelles ça "équipe full formation" ???? J'en connais beaucoup qui aimerait avoir une telle équipe. Moi le premier, surtout pour mes finales à venir.! Mais un grand bravo à toi pour ton titre.

He was talking about a full in-house training team, and his players come from his cdf

Congratulations Bastoun

Well done, invite me when you bring out the champagne

Magikcats: Bien joué , invite moi lorsque tu sortiras le champagne

I'd do a trophy presentation but I'm sure that would make my players lose fitness so the bottles will stay clogged ^^

Bastoun_34: Je ferais bien une présentation de trophée mais je suis sûr que ça va faire perdre de la condition physique à mes joueurs donc les bouteilles vont restées bouchées^^

No, normally it just brings in between 2,000 and 3,000 spectators

Bastoun_34: Je ferais bien une présentation de trophée mais je suis sûr que ça va faire perdre de la condition physique à mes joueurs donc les bouteilles vont restées bouchées^^

I was talking IRL mdrr :P otherwise it wouldn't be as much fun having a virtual champagne mdrrr

Now that you have a title, you can come to VF Masters.

Well said, congratulations 👍👍👍

Bastoun_34: Désolé par avance de ce petit moment d'ego-trip, mais je suis heureux et fier de vous annoncer qu'après plus de 14 ans de jeu (date de création: 20/05/2010), plus d'une centaine de saisons, plusieurs dizaines de saisons passées à frayer contre des golgoths en ligue d'Ile-de-France (propriété de Lecastor) ou en ligue d'Asie (Paul1234 et surtout ce diable de Magpie), je viens ENFIN de remporter mon premier trophée "majeur", à savoir une coupe de la ligue (Bourgogne)! Bon, avec deux séan

Too nice, bravo, 14 years is beautiful.

And glou and glou and glou ... He's one of us, he's got his title just like the others!
Good ^^

"... a completely unbreathable end to the match, Red Star really tried everything from the 1st to the 89th minute, with 5 great chances, but nothing was done, Racing Pinou were well in place and we were heading straight for a 0-0 draw which should bring them the title, unless Suanno... No, he's in a hurry and has to go backwards, watch out for Alvarez who's come to provide the extra man in the middle, he alerts Pernia with a long pass into the box... He controls the ball and is able to turn... A shot... And it's the GOAL!!! Unbelievable! Just when all seemed lost, José Pernia, the unloved one, who had to bear the brunt of Bastoun's tactical reshuffle at the start of the season and gave up his starting berth up front to a more collective Manzano, it was Pernia, now a supersub, who never said a word, never complained about his situation... It was he who said no, who refused the night, and who, at the end of the suspense, came to crucify Racing goalkeeper Pinou! And gave Red Star 34 its first Division 1 title in over 100 seasons!

I think after seeing that, you can die with peace of mind! At least as late as possible! Ah, that's great! What a kick! What a kick!"

Bastoun_34: #match?mid=6107813

"... une fin de match tout à fait irrespirable, le Red Star a vraiment tout tenté de la 1ère à le 89ème minute, avec 5 grosses occasions, mais rien n'y a fait, le Racing Pinou est bien en place et on se dirige tout droit vers un 0-0 qui devrait leur apporter le titre, à moins que Suanno... Non, il est bien pressé et doit passer en arrière, attention à Alvarez qui est venu apporter le surnombre au milieu, il alerte Pernia d'une longue passe

Well done bg!
Great mastery of the mdm :)

Zeus: Bravo bg !
Très belle maitrise du mdm :)

Having won a friendly the day before 7-0? I don't think so^^

Bastoun_34: En ayant remporté un amical la veille 7-0? Je ne crois pas^^

Mdrrr

Congratulations Bastoun!

Everything comes to those who wait.
Congratulations on this superb title!

Congratulations Bastoun on your title!!!
You're an example for many VF players because you train your own players, players who come 100% from your CDF, with a nation, that's very respectable and admirable!

Congratulations, now we know where to have our aperitif!

Congratulations Bast, a great reward for your very honourable management style! :)

congratulations batoun!

Thank you for your nice posts on the management of my team😀 After that, to be honest, it was mainly a choice I made a few years ago, at a time when, like many 'old' players who'd been around for years non-stop, I was looking for a second wind and a reason not to stop. For me, it was styles (which I hadn't really looked into) and training 'made-to-measure' players to try and get the best out of them. So it's still pretty basic, we're not an experimental team like I've seen in the game, but in any case I'm enjoying it and that's the main thing (and if, on top of that, we win a title with an 89th-minute goal, I'll take it!)
On that note, I'll see you next season when I update the topic after my victory in the LDC final! (no)

Another probably stolen victory for Communism

Goooooood morniiiing Viet Nam! Congratulations to kamarad Bastoun, who is wearing the colours of the proletariat.

Shame on the Kamarad "Jupette et sandales" and other nauseating imperialists who are jealous of a victory won by a few farm workers brought up on Bo Bun and who learnt VFootball in rice paddies on the banks of the Mekong !!!
