ARGH! The Italian league is solid, I havn't won in like 10 games now, went 2-0 up against Cagliary or however you say it and they came back 2-2 in the 90th minute.

It's driving me nuts.

I'd never go in the Italian League, what the ****s with all that co-ownership nonsense?

Got Wolves promoted at the first time of asking (again) despite Ebanks-Blake doing cruciates in September. Keogh and Vokes provided the firepower, with Iwelumo and McLean chipping in handily. Daniel Parejo is mental at Championship level. £1k? Bargain then. 101 points from 45 games so far.

Currently playing with a friend, and we're well into the third season. I got promoted as Champions with Leicester in League One and the Championship, while he got promoted with Leeds the first season but resigned after a season of mid-table mediocrity, rejoining with Stoke who he helped over the finish line into promotion.

I've had the craziest of games at the beginning of the Prem League season, notably coming back from being 3-1 behind away to Chelsea in the 70th minute to win 3-4 (!) and a few games later coming back from being 2-4 down at home at halftime against Man U to draw 5-5, leading 5-4 until Berbatov equalised in injury-time!

My star is a 2nd season regen that I spotted in the rumours section. Got him for 55k from Bohemians, and I've never ever seen a youngster improve like him. demetriou.gif

edit: Oh and Barcelona released Bojan on a free as he wasn't deemed good enough!!! He's wound up at FC Copenhagen somehow

2 games left in the 2011/12 season and got relegated into League 2 with Blackpool.

All my best players put transfer requests in and with 2 games remaining, I thought, well I am not playing you unloyal lot.

So I started 17 year olds etc.

3-3 with Southampton and they were relegated to League 2 aswell :crylaugh:

0-3 at Doncaster.

Then, the sack :@

Went on holiday untill I got offered a job. That was 16th Feburary 2013.

Took over Oldham Athletic.

They are 14th in Blue Square Premier with teams like Kidderminster, York and Cambridge. :unsure:

___

1st game, beat York City 2-0

2nd game, lost to Chesterfield 2-1

My Wolves team are 1000/1 to win the title and beat title contending Man City 1-0 on the opening day of the season thanks to a Jonjo Shelvey freekick. Yes boys!

This lad is going to be very useful, He's in the England U21 squad at 16. :o

Indeed... His anticipation is worrying though. I find it to be generally quite underrated...

He's learning from Tunch so i expect everything to shoot to 20. :D

Haha, good luck then :)

What about this fella? He was looking good a year ago, and since then I've had 6 or 7 messages from the assistant saying he's been impressed with the guy in training, and his stats are just shooting up like that with stunning regularity!

Arrived yesterday. What a bag of wank to install - fook steam in its ass.

Nonplussed with the game so far. Hopefully start proper on Monday with smoe real game time and the downloading of the patches.

Started as Leicester (natch) sold a bunch of the shit players. Brought in Merida on loan, Stockdale for about a tenner and Cleverley for not much (listed at manure) and Stephen Carr on a free. Sent Martin back as well.

Line up is 4-5-1 attacking:

Stockdale

Carr

Mattock

Hobbs

Tunchev

Oakley

Dyer

Merida

King

Cleverley

Howard

Bench:

Ambrusics

Gradel

Fryatt

Morrison

Gilbert

Also i need some reccomendations, Lewandowski wouldnt come as he's only just signed for Lech.

So i need players like him that are cheap as fook and will be amazing all season and through next season as well. Players like Stancu and Aaritalo from FM08.

Hit me up...

Sounds like you had the same problem as everyone getting the game going, what a joke!!

I started with Leicester in my 1st game, its difficult but you can win League 1 in your 1st season, the problem is that most of the players aren't given as good ratings as they are in real life, whatever you do don't sell Mattock or Fryatt even for good money, they are capable of winning you the league, the other problem is you get no money, I would recomend scanning the free transfers, and trying to get some good loanees, look at transfer listed players as well, you can generally get them on loan!!

A good freebie is Marvin Andrew, Centre Half good cover for you, also bring in some better staff if you have room in your wage budget, because they are awful when you start!!

Also look at Christenval, went to leeds on mine, and also Brian Kerr, once you get the new patches there isn't many free decent players left, then you have 2 get what you can!!

Once you get the new patches you will have all the players we have now when you start, makes it so much easier!! Would post some screenshots of my Prem Leicester team but have recently got new comp and lost the game!! Too much hassle to transfer it, I had Heskey etc back at Leicester!!

Bit of a challenge for your 1st go on the new 1 though!! Fair Play!!

Brian Murphy for about 50k

Miguel Cevasco for about 70k (he is out of contract when the game starts so you can sign him for free if you want but he won't join until January)

Henri Anier for 100k

That's enough to coast out of League 1, All three are easily good enough for the Championship too.

I use 9.2 so Anier might cost more on 9.3 i have no idea.

Daniel Parejo from Real Madrid for £1,000. Easily the best £1k ever spent, seeing as he's now worth £3.6million. :wub:

He'd been transfer listed by request. Asking price of £1,000. Assurances of a first-team place and boom, he was in. Championship signing of the season, I believe. And he's having a decent first Prem season despite being so young. Labelled the next Guti. I am good.

Sounds like a good idea actually, might start that one tonight!! Keep you posted on the progress, I reckon defo get them to the Prem, in about 5 seasons??

Lucky stuff!! He is quality on it, I've not been playing much lately, but as I said above might go for the challenge and see how I get on!!

To be honest, with a decent sized database and considering all of the money that's flying around in the Prem on my game, I reckon keeping Wolves up is enough of a challenge.. Though saying that, first season in the Prem and I'm 2nd after 27. ****ing score.
