My chairman is an idiot. I spent all 3 million out of my 3.5 million pound transfer funds on a very promising young centreback. After 2 games he broke his foot and only came back into the team in the last 3 games in December. 1st of January Barcelona, Chelsea, Werder Bremen, Zenit, Udinese and Porto offer 1 million for him and my chairman accepts it as an offer to good to refuse.

Worst signings you guys have made?
Bought a striker for my Foggia side, 9m. A season later, and I'm struggling to sell him for 3m. Made only 9 apps during the season for 2 goals. Could argue I didn't give him much of a chance, but I had no faith in him scoring, anytime he had the ball.

Just got slaughtered 3-0 away to the team in 18th with 2 players now out for 3 months just to rub salt into the wounds. This is either going to be really fun or I'm gonna need a new lappy soon :lol:

Took over in Feb when we were 20 points from safety or something :lol: Was trying to do the most epic club hero thing and save us. Didn't happen though, but at least I lifted us off the foot of the table :P

So that crazy Hong Kong team won their first friendly 5-0 against Tajikistan, with one of those players getting a hattrick and another 2 getting the other goals.
Should get interesting once WC Qualifiers come along :lol:

I signed him from Wolfsburg for 15m in 2010 and he scored 14 goals and 5 assists in 27 appearances. In the next three years he scored just 18 goals in 70 games and in his final season at the club before I sold him he failed to score in 15 league appearances and scored just 1 in 26 games before I sold him on to Juventus for 8.5m

 Ok seriously Brazil, I suggest you get some fucking normal 14 year olds, not this genetically modified stuff. That shit just won't fly when it comes to drug tests.

I've had a couple of players pop up like that for Argentina and then they don't amount to anything.

Decided to leave Boa, couldn't be bothered staying in that shithole. Applied for the Toluca job and got it. Currently 5th in the closing stage and in the CONCACAF Champions League QF against LA Galaxy. Drew the first leg away 3-3. Would have been happy with that before the match exp\cept it was a 89th minute equaliser to LA. Ohwell pretty confident I can get the job done in Mexico.

A 6ft2 14 year old with that skill at 35 pound a week? Someone's been tweaking with the editor? :d Only joking, I found a wonderkid who was 15 from Bolivia (go figure). Didn't live up to his hype though... :-k

Bigger concern would be his shit positioning and anticipation.

Just started a new game with Burnley. Started well, sitting 3rd after 10 games. Best result so far was a 4-0 win over Tottenham in the 3rd round of the Carling Cup. George Boyd has 6 goals and 4 assists in 12 games and Wood just opened his account at the club with a hatrick v Reading. Team  Transfers Edited by shaker: 26/6/2011 10:56:27 PM

Through to the semis of the Champions League after a 2-2 draw at home. Will get Santos Laguna or Columbus in the Semis. If Santos Laguna win their QF it'll mean all 4 semi finalists will be Mexican :lol:

It's not like there's a lot of league competition in North America for the 'Champions' league outside of MLS and Mexican competitors...

True. Puerto Rico only just lost on away goals in the QF's and Olimpia from Honduras lost in ET.

](*,) So my game decided to crash. Only lost about a month so it wasn't to bad, but when I went to holiday forward to where I was before for some reason Toluca sacked me :lol: Applied for the Monterrey job, got it and Humberto Suazo goes and scores 4 goals inside 48 mins in my first game. He is way to good for Mexico :lol:

Cron won Real the league with an 88th min winner on the last day to lift them 1 pt above Atletico, before scoring 4 in the 5-0 UCL final win over AC Milan. Heroic.
Going into the last day of the Bundesliga it was:
Leverkusen 63 Bayern 63 Schalke 63 Dortmund 61 Wolfsburg 61
With one game left! Crazy. Leverkusen held on.

:lol: Just got a message saying that 4 goal haul was Humberto Suazo's first goals in 11 hours. Not a bad way to return to form.

I once managed American Samoa for 2 weeks. That would be worst just ahead of the time I took on the Ivory Coast job in FM08, but I for some reason could not call up any goalkeepers to my squad. Resigned after losing 7-5 to a really poor African nation, then 13-0 to Cameroon in the WCQ's. I remember that bug. Screwed up a lot of African national teams.
