Getting into my stride now, won about 6 or seven of my last 8 games.

Then you will lose 4 or 5 on the spin. Always happens :rolleyes:

Yep... I always start the season amazingly strong and then blow it completely as the team starts to play like shit! Fooking eijits!

IMPORTANT:

Is there any way that either in the editor or otherwise I can stop the Reserves and Under 18's playing in their respective leagues?

I know this request sounds VERY odd as training up youngsters is vital but I am a very big neat freak and I HATE looking at their fixtures when I haven't done anything towards them... odd but I would love for someone to help me! :D

Any contributions, as said, would be more than welcome and would make me a VERY happy manager! ;)

Just finish your first season, and then decline their invitations to their respective leagues before your second one starts, y'big woman. :P

Bloody fussy, you! Best asking Potter or Ched for all things technical. I'm only good at playing the game. :D:ph34r:

Hmm... I know... I'm a real perfectionist. :D

As for the technical support... I'll try and find them and ask them! :)

What's your best final standing with the current Leicester team?

FM '07 was clearly tooo easy 'cos like, I won every trophy in Europe with Leicester, and that was a considerably worse team than this current one. On this years version, I've only done my Championship season, and finished 3rd in the table with the highest goals-for ratio and 4th best defence in the league. Battered Watford 3-0 in the playoff final.

:o ... pretty damn good that...

Congrats! :)

My best seasons aren't with Leicester, they are with international football and then Liverpool.

(FM 2005) Won the 2006 World Cup and Euro 2008 with Sweden and got to the Final in the Confederations Cup and Semi-Finals of the 2010 World Cup with them as well. Got offered the Liverpool job and took it alongside the Sweden job... Finally left Sweden after a few months with Liverpool as I wanted to concentrate on them. In that season, won the Premiership, Champions League, FA Cup and League Cup as I had MILLIONS to spend... bare in mind this was 2010-2011 and Liverpool had really invested loads prior to my arrival so I brought in a few players and basically had a great squad.

Never matched that success again... :cry:

I'm not suprised, 'cos like that's a lot of success right there! You did better than I have anyway lol seeing as I've never, not once, been offered the job as an international manager of any nation. Despite all of my achievements, the biggest offers I've had on the game have been from Liverpool, Arsenal and Tottenham. Where's my appreciation?!? :cry:

:clap: lcfc_jme :clap:

Is that good enough? ;)

P.S. I started as Sweden manager... then got offered the Liverpool job... that said, I was offered the Argentina job after some time at Liverpool. :)

Much better thanks! :D

Maybe they think that I wouldn't be able to manage at the highest possible level seeing as I was only manager of Leicester City and I'd never managed a big club like Arsenal, Chelsea, Liverpool or Man Yoo. Tossers. :rolleyes:

Best ive ever done is the first "football manager" managed spurs for 5 years and dominated the english leagues and cups. Had rooney and van persie banging them upfront. Then i left for one season with inter milan and won serie A, with michael owen as my star striker, then left for barcelona and won the league back to back. Then because i was 8 years I stopped playing it lol.

New laptop - new Leicester team, this'll be my 3rd now which is why ive not really got 100% into it yet.

Think i've got the best team i've had so far. See below ...

lcfcxw5.jpg

Sold £5m worth of players and only brought in under £1m.

Got a few deals in the pipeline - Cort to Yeovil swapped for Marvin Williams. Sosnin, Tuia and Mourabet hopefully on the way. After that i shall have to start playing a lot more defensive with all the defenders ill have lol

Could do with an out and out goal scorer although Phillips, Hume, Fryatt and Kornilenko are doin ok for now.

Any squad suggestions?

Missed out on Sosnin and Tuia so i can keep attacking :thumbup:

Just beat a full strength Wigan 2-0 in the cup and got drawn against the sheeps

Suggested him earlier in this thread.

Great addition, especially in the Championship.

Could you type his real name or club as I can't find him... :(
