Football Manager 2008

[Samilktray]

Storming the league including a 6-2 destruction of Leeds

Just got knocked out the league cup in the third round to a controversial Watford (Collins John) goal.

23 goals in 8 games top of the league on 20 points.

Just won League One with eight games left.

This is with Leicester by the way.

Beat Charlton 2-1 in the League Cup

1-0 down at half time and Hume won it for me with a thunderbolt in the 124th minute :w00t:

All my signings are crap, and we can't win away.

Looks like i'm doing an Ollie

[Flynny]

Anyone remember my Oxford game I went mental about having lost?

I've got Cambridge at the same point, only a season earlier. I am incredible.

[lavrentis]

Started my second ever game on this. I have just lost 8-0. In a pre season friendly. Not bad.

You are a machine. You bought the same players?

Buy Vincent Pericard and Steve McGarry, all your problems will be solved (in attack anyway )

[morris1234]

Ah crap, i've just put in bids for Tommy Smith and Kevin Phillips.

Mind you, scoring doesn't seem to be THAT much of a problem. Staying in front is though.

Anyway, i'll withdraw my bids, put Ebanks-Blake on the transfer list, and take your advice. Cheers

Jordan Robertson is an absolute god so far. 4 in 2 league games.

Domaine Rouse isn't bad for a supersub either.

Won my first two league games 3-1.

[AmericanScott]

Found a decent bargain for City on the game.

David Bunderla, Slovenia U21 striker

Is anyone an FM Editor wizz on here?

Just a quick question... again... does anyone know how to remove the Reserve and Under-18's teams from their leagues AND how to stop youth players being promoted to the Under-18's squad at the start of every season.

Any help would be GREATLY appreciated...

thats isnt really an editor problem tbh, at the end of a season you can choose whether you put your reserve team and youth team in any leagues or not!! and youth players get promoted when they are to old to play in the under 18's!
