FM can get fucked. I'm over constant corrupting of my save games.

2nd in BSP with Salisbury - Predction was 23rd

In the Conference League Cup Final

FA Trophy 4th Rd

But no, like always 'save game could not be loaded'

Fuck you FM, fuck you.

Just finished my first season in a new save starting with Central Coast. Media prediction was 8th. Had a great season finishing second 2 points behind Brisbane who were predicted for 9th as well lol. Also lost out to the Roar 1v0 in the Grand Final.

Have qualified for the ACL and have picked up Nick Ward, Wayne Srhoj and Archie Thompson for next year. I need to get rid of some players but no takers. Been trying to sell Hutchinson, McBreen and Porter but no interest for over 6 months lol.

That used to be from your virus scanner scanning your save file while you were saving. I'd recommend changing virus program to avast or something similar.

How did you pick him up so cheaply?

Nasri is unhappy at Arsenal and for sale...could pick him up for 3.6m but he wants a bigger signing on fee than I can offer.

That grinds my gears no end. I was playing as Everton and Sneijder came available for 15m and I could afford him and his wages but not the signing on fee.

I had the same problem. I had the 15m to sign him, he wanted 140k/week in wages...so I make the budget adjustments to allow for that...and he wouldn't budge off his 6m signing fee. I had to wait until the summer and got him eventually, but fucking hell.

Any of you guys find that when negotiating deals, whether selling or buying, that clubs take no notice at all if you strip off the +50% of next sale, or if you add it on?

No, I've never noticed that adding it on, I'll have to give it a crack. But I have noticed that they'll keep reverting back to say, 35% add on if I remove it or cut it down to 15.

Finished 12th in my first Blue Square Premier season.

Didn't change too much of the squad, some of the 3rd or 4th choice players went.

Signed a 38 year old Lee Hendrie to boost my attacking midfield spots :lol:

I am still playing FM10. Will hopefully get FM11 soon. He is a quality player, but based on his form this year, you'd think he will be one of the best rated left backs in future games... not so much in FM10.

He was actually playing in the reserves.

Not sure if its something to do with me not being up to date with the patches (still playing 2010) or not, but it seems a little odd. They will haggle over a measly 20K negotiation, yet when you come to an agreement, they dont seem to notice when you add a +50% next sale clause to it.

Comes in handy when you keep getting 6 or 7 mill coming your way every 6 months or so.

Ah yeah. that'd be about what I paid for him in FM10 as well. They want a good 21m for him in FM11. I think I'm going to have to unsettle him if I want him...but I just picked up Riise on a free transfer to replace Aurelio who is always injured and I've got this young kid who's played 23 games this season, is only 17 and has an average rating of 7.22. Deserves young player of the year easily.

Has anybody else found that problem with the clock that I mentioned previously?

just got the sack from spurs... had them 7th in the league at christmas, underachieving yes but i guided them to a champions league final last season... greddy yids

What'd you set the pre-season expecation to?

to challenge... i acknowledge that i was failing in the league but would of thought i got enough credit from last season to give me the whole year after they had given me a new 5 year contract only months earlier

That's the thing with the pre-season expectations, it can undermine your integrity and hard work from the previous season. I dunno why you got sacked after signing a new long-term contract.

pretty pleased that there now on the downturn, since Moyes has taken over at Spurs they've been
3-0 Boro Away Win (18th)
0-1 Everton Home Loss (8th)
4-0 Bristol Home Win (17th)
0-2 Villa Away Loss (19th)
1-1 Ipswich Away Draw (20th)

7 points from 5 games isn't the worst start for him.

he lost to manaergeless villa when i belted them 5-0 earlier in the season... like it's not a terrible start but he's doing no better then how i was going, if anything had them going better i beat City 4-1 away from home, won 3-2 against Ajax at home then loss 3-0 to Newcastle away and got the sack

BAHA! finished in 7th with there last 11 games only bringing in 2 wins in all competitions... will have to wait to exact my revenge when a job comes up

What's your reputation like?

So I got sacked after 9 games in charge of AC Milan. Won two, lost 5 and drew 2. :shock:

Was unemployed for barely a second, when I applied at 1860 Munich, who are predicted to come last. When I arrived, the team already had James Holland and Mitch Langerak and surprisingly they are considered the key players. Coming up to the January window, looking to buy some quality players. When I came in we were 15th/18. Now have risen to 13th, with 3 wins and 4 losses with me in charge.

Have signed Rukavytsya and Vidosic, who will be coming soon.

What year is it? Should take a look at Veratti and Monzon. If you need a second keeper, Vincent Enyeama is available cheap.

I just got the Italy job with my Liverpool save. Should be interesting, I've never managed Italy before and there's some decent players at my disposal. I'm just looking for a decent young forward there.

I need some good bargains for a newly promoted side. Managed to get Burnley straight back into the EPL

What's your budget and year?

The Australia job came up, so I applied with my Atletico profle...You'd think that a back-to-back La Liga winner would be a shoe-in for the role...but no, Graham fucking Arnold got the gig.

Just finished the first season, the budget I have now is 10 mil but that's from the January transfer window as I didn't buy anybody

Typical FFA.

I've just taken on the South Korea job with my Boro game.
I went through the last EPL season undefeated and went back to back, but again losing the Champions League final, so that trophy has managed to escape me once again.

I've got a fight on my hands in the EPL this season. After 21 games in, I'm 2nd but 10 points behind Man City. At least it will make things interesting.

My liverpool team 3rd season, im confident we can challenge for the league this year, 5th 1st season, 3rd last season, lost in the Europa League final, QF of both domestic cups. Still havent won a trophy, made the Carling Cup final in first season but lost to Everton in ET.

hmmmmmmmmm. Take a look at Rakitic as your big signing. He could be a bargain for you, Diego Renan, Ognjen Vukojevic, Hedwiges Maduro, Tiago, Arda Turan, and Diego Costa are all available for under 5m/piece. Turan and Maduro should both be available free. Maybe loan Jonjo Shelvey? I paid 4m for Cattermole. Vincent Enyeama is a great option if you're after a keeper.

That's a good team there Shaker, definitely worthy of the title. How much did you pay fo Suarez? I spent big in my first season and basically bought the title. I find that the Champions League is easier to win than the EPL too.

Just a few games into my second season at Arsenal, after a whole season I finally lost my first ever game in charge to Chelsea, going down 3-0 in the Community Shield. I've also just applied for the post at Ireland and Brazil.

Thats a fine first up season.
My team is pretty strong now, and last season we only lost 2 games (an FA Cup game, and the Champions League final). But it took me a while to turn Boro into a dynasty.
