Any price that's that cheap sounds too good to be true...and probably is. I'm willing to pay a little bit extra and get a copy of the game that I know is legitimate.

Hah. I'm testing my DB, and a few years in Rovers have hired Kewell as manager.

Osiek got sacked/retired after coming 3rd in the final WCQ group, and we needed penalties to get past New Zealand. lol.

Think this will be only the 2nd version since CM93/94 (Oleg Salenko, one of about 30 foreign players you could sign in the game) that I won't buy. Well and truely over all the bugs that come out with the recent FM versions and having to continually add patches that change the gameplay & ruin your tactics.
Unless it gets rave reviews, then I may change my mind.

There are approximately 6,000 changes in this database, 57 new awards, 25 new clubs, 17 new stadiums 8 playable competitions and a host of additions and changes to make the expanded league feel more real.

Anyone on the Full Version used the Set Pieces Creator? I've notcied in the demo, that it doesn't seem to be saving the actual Kicking/Throwing instructions. It'll save the individual, 'Far Post', whatever instructions, but the instructions for where you want your Corner/Throw/FK to be aimed, aren't saving. Anyone else had this problem?

Finished my second season with Leeds, won the CCC by 8 points. Signed a few players including Gabriel Milito and Arthur Boruc. Decided to move onto different pastures and resigned. I think they should stay up this season with the squad depth. Still waiting for another club to offer me a job, have been concentrating on Australia for the time being, rather than chasing another club job.

Also played the Asian Cup with Australia. Came third after losing to UAE in the semi finals. Tim Cahill and Scott McDonald got joint golden boot with 7 goals from 6 games. Got a few decent young regens coming through so the future looks promising for Australia. Currently ranked 21 in the world.
