Nice ground? :mellow: You must've been sauced up!

All Gradi cares about is bringing young players through so he can get his cut of the transfer fee. Think it's 20% he gets.

Everyone loves him for this 'unique footballing principles' he supposedly has but it's bullshit. They play just as much long ball stuff as everyone else, except for us of course. ;)

I didn't know he was on 20%!

The ground looked nice from the outside at least... :blush:

I agree about the footballing principles bollocks. They're not bad to watch, but their not pioneers of how to play football in the lower leagues and survive.

Needless to say, fix your fucking wage structure.

Is it just me or are Bolton actually good in this game?

Liverpool 2 - 4 Bolton

Serves me right for playing a second team I suppose. Torres is out for a month, so I'm stuffed as far as goals are concerned.

Where are they in the league on yours? They're about 15th on mine, they played class against me (!) and beat me. My brother is Liverpool and they beat him at Anfield 3-1. :mellow:

Tottenham are a pack of over-rated cocks an'all. They've had 3 6-0 wins on mine and have had 2 on my brothers, one of which he was one the receiving end of. :lol:

I'm guessing it has a few bugs. A patch is needed.

My Pompey game was going good, six games in and we were undefeated (beat Liverpool and drew with Chelsea too) then I get thumped 4-0 by Derby

:laugh:

I just started a Man Utd game. I'll play for a season or so to get the grip of it and find good bargains. Then I'll start a new game with Espanyol, Pompey or Ajax.

I was Barca for the season, fans hate me for being unexperenced but Won the league and they have made up a chant using my name woohoo. Played Valencia in the season opener after winning the league and got beat 8-0 :eek:hmy:

Brought In Carvalho for 12mill, Baptista for 9Mill, Aguero is amazing on this game, if you can get him early then do so as his value is up to 36 Million now. David Villa has a minimun release clause of 105Mill which might be worth it? :huh:

Enjoying it so far, all the players think I have no discipline, they all hate Puyol the Capt, I want to change the Capt but apparently it turns nasty if you cahnge your capt as even the family members ask you why you have done this?

Idiots. I could've turned it round. I was only 6 points of 6th place for fuck's sake. Could of at least given me until January. : 0

Guess I'll start with Liverpool once I get my laptop back.

Pulis actually got sacked about 6 days after me, I'd already signed for Udinese though. I got 12 minutes into the match before quitting. :wave:

I'm only in pre-season after database updates and I'm worried. In every pre-season friendly since FM 2006 I've made eleven changes at half-time in order to give everyone a run out. For the first time, my second string side (Kalac, Simic, Bonera, Cafu, Digao etc.) have been shit in every single match. I lost 3-1 to Hambug after leading 1-0 at half-time, 2-0 to Ajax after drawing 0-0 at half-time, 3-2 to Juventus after leading 2-0 at half-time. Perhaps my superb FM 2007 tactics (of which there were eight iterations during my Milan game) just don't work in this game but I've looked at the individual set-up and players aren't doing stupid jobs or attacking too much.

Hmm.

I've set up a class 4-3-2-1 with Milan. Kaka was scoring bundles before he got injured for 2 months. It was like the days of FM05 when Cavenaghi would score a wonder goal every game. So far my strikers haven't really been prolific, but my two AMCs have been thriving. 6 straight league wins now and 8 in all comps.

I've been fortunate enough not to have many injuries so far apart from Kaka. I've got a balance of 30m so hopefully the board will give me some cash in January. I really need a major revamping. Probably 2 new fullbacks, 1 new CB, 1 new box to box MC, and 1 back up AMC/Seedorf replacement.

I've bought Barzagli for £13m, Buonanotte for a bargain £5k from River and Belluschi for £4.7m. Think I've got about £2m left for transfers and am trying to engineer some kind of crazy deal for Zambrotta and Forestieri (who is co-owned, making life a bit tough).

I don't really see the fun of playing with top clubs anymore, there's not really a great challenge/target to work towards. I enjoy playing with a league two club and trying to see how far I can get them and what players I can attract, although I get bored of games easily I'm trying to keep this Brentford game going - signed Pericard and Wallwork and a few other loans from top clubs. I'm currently in fourth place.

I do a two-in-one. I'm at Milan and have a second manager in the game starting unemployed. In FM 2007 I had the second manager starting as Bosnia coach and did amazingly, eventually getting jobs with Torino, PSG and finally Juventus which is where I got bored. Milan and Juventus....never again.
