Features

Hottrick had a number of online tools available. Some of which can only be used by registered users.

It was the main tool at the time for evaluation of goalkeepers. Based on his TSI and form, it could show hidden sub level of skill to determine just how close the keeper was to (or far from!) popping.

Platypus Guide

This user guide was well worth a read for new users. It was written in an idiosyncratic manner so entertaining as well as informative. Available in English and Dutch.

Link Generator

In Hattrick pages such as a team or forum, blog you can click links to other website that take you to the default hattrick log in page. What this tool does is take you to a hottrick page from where you can click a link to whichever hattrick server you are currently logged in to.

Friendlies Search Engine

Here you could view requests for friendlies & also publish your own offer. In order to publish your own request you had to download your hattrick data to the Hottrick site.
