Something quite strange has just happened on mine. I'm Blackpool in the 2nd season and I took 4 players on trial for a month. None of them really interested me so I didn't offer any contracts but strangely, considering all 4 are in their 20s (including Max Gradel of Leicester), I have been informed about a month later all 4 have retired. Anyone else had anything similar happen? :unsure:

Yep, not quite sure about 08 but it definately used to happen on 07.

Soon be time to start another new game with Leicester with all the new signings added. :cool:

I agree.

Afer i've done with QPR and Braintree.

It could be a while.

Got York promoted to League Two via the play-offs in my first season.

Quite disappointed though as I have been top for over half the season, and haven't been out of the top 3 since matchday 4.

My Captain Manny Panther got booked every 1.5 matches (26 in 40) and was sent off four times. My strikers did the business up front all season - 31 in 51 for Alex Rhodes, 12 in 18 for Richard Brodie and 15 in 31 for Onome Sodje.

I tried to sign the two Hungarians but couldn't find them, are they even included on the game? :unsure:

It's the 2010/2011 season and I'm 2nd in the Premiership with Leicester :D

At the moment I'm just about to play Leicester V AC Milan, at my 42 000 Walkers Stadium, in the Champions League group stage.

I'll let you know the score, at the San Siro I lost 3-1 with Vagner Love scoring for me.

I just finished 6th with Newcastle.

I was 4th but I drew 0-0 with Man Utd (with 9 men!!) and dropped two places.

I'm Newcastle in the first season, thinking of resigning :ermm:

Manny Panther of York is the best captain ever.

14 games this season - 12 yellow cards and 2 red cards. Only time he hasnt been booked is when he had to be taken off at half time one game.. and against Stevenage.

Many Panther is a legend the other day he had an open goal but just froze then someone tackled him!!!

Moved my way up to the Atletico Madrid job and am currently kicking arse compared to last season. I'm 3rd and just beat Espanyol 3-0.

Aguero, Forlan, Matias Fernandez, Arshavin, Raul Garcia, Vanden Borre and Pablo to name a few of my best players.

Mmhh... I spent numerous hours on FM on Saturday.

Picked Leicester, had a bright start, moved up to 3rd and then the big crash came which saw me drop all the way to 22nd, before I finally caught the buzz again.

Finished 7th in my first season, just one point off the playoff places. Highlight was the away match at Bristol City, where I won 6-3, with De Vries grabbing a hattrick. lol Campbell banged in 24 goals - without one single injury in between!

Sold Kishishev to Leeds for 40K :)

Douglas has proclaimed himself a free agent - he never made a better save

Henderson's unhappy and should find a new buyer soon

Gradel has left for Bristol Rovers

Magunde joined Cheltenham

Have sent Wesolowski on loan to OSC Lille

Kisnorbo has left for Mallorca

Sold N'Gotty to Preston for 65K

Sold Nielson to Preston for 140K lol

I got sacked from Newcastle for declaring my interest in the Derby job accidentally!

I tried to click Manager Interaction but I accidentally hit the declare interest in job :(

I've hit a bad patch with QPR :(

I'm awful at this game.

Makes two of us then. Choosing Leicester is a bad idea because you get crap budgets of about £140k to spend, what a joke. You can't buy anyone decent for that much.

Once you get past the first year, the budget will be adjusted.

Believe me. I've been there and am currently enjoying my second season with Leicester City, proud leader of the Championship.

Sounds promising, just got to stick with it then. I'm trying to sell most of the squad to make funds for new signings.

Sold Kaebi for 1.3 million :whistle: and got Kenny Cunningham on free transfer.

Even on a large player database, I can't find Zsolt or Bori :o I wanted them in my team. Does anyone else have this problem?

If you load all players from Hungary you can get them
