i done the cheapskate route and downloaded a cracked version of FM2008...

It turns out the version i have is for crafty gits like me who illegally download... on mine i have belurus winning world cups and armenia winning euro's...

It really distracts the gameplay for me....

My own fault tho, i should have went out and brought the bloody thing....

Looks like i will have to do that in the new year!!

Out of interest has anybody else on here expereinced this??

lol

major glitch on my game, happened in other gamesaves too but all international tournaments are weird, a few european teams got placed into the african cup of nations but the worst is i was england for a bit (as i was bored) i easily qualified for the later stages of the euro 2008, but in every group what happened was the bottom 4 teams (like austria etc) went through so its armenia v kazakhstan in the final. its happened in all international tourneys, a french international team called reunion just won the african cup of nations??? oh and i got the sack from the fa because i didnt qualify.

Stuffed Leeds and started with Hereford instead.

It's a case of winning all my home games, and losing all away games :mellow:

Now its a case of win some of my home games, draw the rest, and lose all my away games.

I've just bought 08 today and have heard about these patches, but I didn't get a clear explaination and don't really get what they are, some help would be splendid :thumbup:

I've already gone through, one Leicester game, a Liverpool game, an Exeter game and a Burton game.

But I decided to start a new Leicester one. I hadn't been in the play-offs all season, then I snook in in the last 2 games. Then beat Sheffield United 2-1 in the final. :scarf:

I was around mid-table when the January window opened but then the signings of strikers Danny Haynes (Ipswich, 850k) and Syargey Konilenko (Dnipro, 850k) boosted me. Also, I had 'leading premier league players' Mika Aaritalo (200k) and Gabriel Torje (275k).

Championship 07-08 Signings:

In:

Daniel Sturridge (loan)

Gabriel Torje 275k

Mika Aaritalo 200k

Fraizer Campbell (loan)

Kasper Hamalainen 30k (very good for the price)

Jack Hobbs (loan)

David Edgar (loan)

Phillip Bardsley (loan)

Patrik Lomski (free)

Danny Haynes 850k

Syargey Konilenko 850k

Alex Pearce (loan)

Jack Pelter (loan)

Adel Taarabt (loan)

Marc Wilson (loan)

Out:

Patrick Kisnorbo 1.3 million, Anderlecht. Not my choice to let him go.

Alan Maybury, 150k, Millwall.

Shaun Newton, free.

Darren Kenton 20k, Walsall.

Mark De Vries 6k, Port Vale.

That was my first season, I am now 6 games into my second season and are 13th. With 8 points.

I have signed another 13 players, with the 16.5 million transfer budget but I can't be bothered to list em' all. :scarf:

I'm well hacked off... my favourite player at City is Mattock and guess what...

I started a game with City and am doing really well... I am pleased anyway, 2nd in the Championship but knocked out of both the League Cup and FA Cup in the 3rd Round which is disappointing... BUT when we got to the January transfer window, Aston Villa put in a bid of 5 million for Mattock who is a beast for me on the left side of midfield and MANDARIC accepted it!!!!! GGGGRRRRRR!!!!!

Now I'm more stuck that EVER on the left and have to play Porter until the end of the season and suddenly things aren't going quite as well as I would like any more... nevertheless, I will keep going and let you all know what happens...

Am VERY pissed off about Mattock though... oh, Weso also wants to leave... he got pissed when I rejected a bid of 3.8 million from Anderlecht for him! lol

I have to admit that I am shocked that clubs were offering so much... then again, I was asking 5 mill for Mattock and 5 mill for Weso...

That is a deliberate bug (of many) put in by SI to ruin the cheap skates' games who decide to download an illegal copy :)

Buy the game instead of downloading a pirate one.

So they claim. I don't get that bug, but I know of many people with a legal copy who do. SI have just said that to cover their backs, its just a generic bug.

Hereford is just awful at the minute.

Transfer Window open. No decent players available.

Morale is very poor.

Players are tired.

No money.

1 away win in 13 league games.

Dreadful goalkeepers.

Just been knocked out of the League Cup in the 3rd round by Brighton :blink: Struggling in the Championship as well at a lowly 20th place after 7 games and only 6 points :cry:

Only if they carried on from the demo as the demo had the bug in (illegal copies are simply ones that enable you to continue the demo version eg. removes the limit if you get me) so if you carried on with your demo version, you'd be bound to get it.

The game has had enough of me. Cant do anything right. Board displeased. Players letting me down. Oh well, I'll always have Kaebi's hattrick against Blackpool. :cry:

Just beaten them 2-0 to stop a 5 game losing streak :dance: DJ and Paddy K with the goals :thumbup:

Just finished my first season of a new game with Leicester and finished 2nd in the Championship... granted I went out in the 3rd Round of both the League Cup and FA Cups but I am promoted to the Premiership! :D

Man City got relegated so went on a plundering session to get their best players with the 15 million that I had as a transfer budget... :)

Posted

Finished my first season as Leicester winning the championship last game of the season thanks to Ollie and his plymouth team beating Barnsely last game of the season and us beating Coventry :scarf:

Bought in Thompson (Free), Seth Johnson (Free) and matty pattison on loan. Then nobody in january.

Sold Maybury, Kenton and Hammond all for 100k each :thumbup:

Not played in prem yet but got man city, arsenal and spurs up first :blink:

Bought in Fulop permantly, Etherington and Bojinov (loan). Not sure who i sold.
