Football Manager 2008

Dan is making me lean towards a good ol' fashioned international management game. But with who?

Who can resist really...... :thumbup:

From my experience, I fully recommend a European minnow like San Marino, Liechtenstein, Luxembourg, Kazakhstan e.t.c.

If you do, load Brazil's leagues and start when their season does, you'll get more qualification games.

I've just had a quite unbelievable game. I lost 5-3 at home to Wales and my striker Andy Selva scored a hattrick, which I'm guessing is the only hattrick a San Marino player has ever scored.lol I would have drew with a bit more luck and a better keeper, they scored from 2 direct crosses, both were'nt meant. :(

One more game left, Slovakia at home. Not too optimistic as they tonked me 6-1 at their place. I'm hoping to add to my 3 point tally though :D

I've fell out with Football Manager. :angry:

I'm Leicester, First season I came 12th.

Second season I raped the league, 1st.

Third season 9th in the premier League.

The board are unhappy! :mellow:

I'm controlling finances well, High flying in the premiership.

Okay, a slight under-achievement in the cup, but to be fair I played 4th place in the 3rd round.

Aparantly I'm making no effort to strive towards long-term plans. :blink:

Anybody know why?

The games a mess.

Either that or I just can't do it anymore.

Thats a problem that was sorted by the newest versions available to download... I have the same problem because I didn't get the updates either.

Basically, the long term plan in the first year is for you to win the Championship... if you do that, great, BUT, once you are in the Premiership the targets don't change and you are still expected to win the Championship which obviously you can't do any more.

I have the most annoying situation ever because of that!

First season I won the Championship with Leicester and therefore got into the Premiership... what followed was unbelievable... not even I knew how I did it but I won the Premiership in my first year up... WITH the squad that I had in the Championship basically...

All that said, I'm going into my third year and I should be doing better as manager and I am making no effort to strive towards the long-term plans... :rolleyes:

Fooking board.

How?

And also, just started a new one with Oxford.

Finding it hard to get good players. Has anybody got any players that I could sign, and that would come to me?

World Cup 2010 qualifying groups have just been drawn.

Group 8:

England

Serbia

Norway

Iceland

Estonia

San Marino

There is certainly potential to pick up a few points, I've set myself a target of 5 to begin with. Obviously I'm looking at the Estonia and Iceland games as winnable/drawable with anything against the rest a bonus.

I'd love to shock England. *rubs hands in anticipation*

I don't like to blow my own trumpet but it appears my management has had a positive effect on San Marino's world ranking lol

Misleading graph... lol

You've only moved up 50-ish places... I've seen teams move up nearly 100 places before!

But still... to move up with San Marino at all is a very good achievement so well done! :appl:

I'm desperately trying to get other managers sacked in a bid to get their jobs. Ooh i'm a swine.

lol lol lol

I've been trying to do that to Arsene Wenger at Arsenal... Bryan Robson (!!?!?!?!) at Man Utd and Benitez at Liverpool for ages after winning the league with Leicester... after that, I can't see us getting any better really and I can't get really good players to come to the club so I'm heading for a top 5 at best I think.

Then again... I'm not sure if I could leave Leicester... I'm City 'till I die. :scarf:

Crewe reach the playoff final :cool:

Got Leed's, if I lkose I'm going to rsign from Crewe and apply for some championship teams, they'll accept anyone if Ben's a leading candidate :giggle:

Well i've had enough of Swindon and League 1. Declared interest in about 6/7 jobs, most of which have said i'd be a leading candidate. Just gotta wait for them to get sacked now :giggle:
