Only 13/90 so far.

Liverpool have got me to 33 of 90. Need to fix my defence if I'm going to get half these achievements though. Conceding too many goals where the strikers are getting in behind.

Decided to start a save with West Ham. Currently 1st in the championship after 11 games, 7 points ahead of 2nd placed Bristol City. Brought in Shane Duffy, Andrea Orlandi and Jake Livermore on loan and have Rhys Williams joining me in January.

Carlton Cole has been an absolute weapon with 8 goals in 10 league games

Portstewart FC now taking a regular place in the Northern Irish Prem, and we've just captured our first ever League Cup last year. :cool:


Pity Linfield just keep raping the league though...

FM just 29.99 on Steam now. Gonna be picking it up this week for sure, just a matter of waiting to see if it gets any cheaper.

It would be good if the actually had a real life steam shops at shopping centres.

Why do people always say this? :lol: ](*,)

It doesn't even make sense though :lol: If there were steam shops at shopping centres wouldn't they just be computers :lol:

Happily sitting in midtable with Bury at the moment.

Guessing he just means Physical stores, with games for those prices.

Well that would be great, would never happen in Australia, but would be great :lol:

Guess it won't matter once everything becomes downloadable.

:-$ :-$

Yeah, 1 store :lol:

There's another, that I haven't been too, but it's in Melbourne as well, meant to be good. But yeah. Games are ridiculously expensive over here.

It's funny when you hear American's complain about their games prices, just imagine if they were here :lol:

It would be sweet.

damn holidays, always get so bored and then i get these crazy ideas of games for FM, only problem is i dont have Fm and now have to wait 2 weeks to receive it.

getting it from ozagameshop for $20

Been watchinga few american commercials when I'm watching NFL...their games are ~60 USD and they're whinging.

We got promoted to the premier league wining the playoffs from 6th place. My squad is several years away from being competitive in the premier league. Most of my starting side are under 19.
We went through the first 10 games with 2 draws and 8 losses and I was beginning to worry if the team could even win a game at this level and then along came Sunderland.

So after my inability to get into that Belgian team game, I decided to become manager of Australia and within a week got a gig at Bishop's Stortford in England's Blue Square North.



After a very slow start where I could not seem to score a goal, let alone win a game, I now find myself in 2nd place after 16 games. Not only that, I am in the 3rd round of the FA after defeating Rotterham. On a bit of a dream run in this.

Did not spend a cent on my side, with all my purchases (19 of them) being off-contracted players or free agents. Team comprises of a South American midfield, six Australians (Royce Brownlie and Sebastian Mattei being the most notable) and a few other no names.

With Australia, was drawn with North Korea, Indonesia and Myanmar in WCQs and have won all my games with one to go against the latter.

Epic game thus far.

Angelo Constanzo was the transfer of the season in my first season with Boreham Wood in Bluse Square South.

Just got drawn with Man City in the third round of the FA Cup. Gonna be a massacre. :lol:

Took West Ham to 1st in the Championship 6 pts clear with games left to play and was offered the Espanyol job, took it only because they're fighting it out for a Champions League place with Real and Barca out of reach it's all on for 3rd and 4th.

Only had 1 major slip up in a 5-1 loss to Real, but apart from that only had 2 other losses, both 2-1 against Bilbao and against Barcelona in my first match in charge.

Leandro Damiao is a machine. 11 goals in 12 games since January.

Just suffered a c*** of a loss as Arsenal. 3-0 up against Ajax away in the 52nd minute. They pull one back in the 54th minute. Then grab another in the 71st minute. Directly from the kick off we pass it straight to El Hamdoui who equalizes. 84th minute, Szcesny saves a ball inside the box but continues sliding outside and a free kick is awarded. He comes out of the box to recieve a yellow card, as he's returning to goal Ajax take the free kick and El Hamdoui heads into an open net.

:lol: that is so us

Going to start a game with SC Bruhl St. Gallen, our small cross-town rivals.

Just got sacked again.

1-1 draw at Marseile. It was at home, so an away score draw will get us through, so not a bad result I guess. Rooney should be back by then I think.

Followed by a 2-1 loss at Blackburn after going ahead. Team's morale is starting to drop. Do not like where this is heading.

Awesome. I just told De Gea his recent form has been great, after he wins Young Player of the Month.

Result?

Morale drops from Good to Fairly Poor. Makes sense.

2-1 down on agg after 30 in second leg at Marseille. Hernandez smashes a penalty against the woodwork. Fletcher played in.. misses it wide from 6 yards. Vidal smashes one over the bar. ffs.

Marseille go down the other end, first attack in the half, and score. Hernadez hits another shot wide. We're getting superkeepered.

Out.

Fuck off.

Another set of two week fines handed out. Told Vidic Hernandez and Fletcher to fuck off and stop moaning and they backed off.

Now I'm losing to Wolves. I knew as soon as that Blackburn result happened our morale would go to shit for no reason and we'd suddenly start losing.

Apparently having a massive unbeaten run followed by another smaller unbeaten run means jackshit compared to a single loss to Blackburn.

Okay. Hopefully this 3-0 win vs Fulham despite being a man down (switching to my 4-4-2 tactic since Hernadez hasn't scored in 7 hours) is going to push us towards the title and restart the flagging team morale.

Seems to have done the trick. 3-1 vs Wigan.

Final 4 matches are Arsenal, Chelsea, Newcastl and Liverpool away on the last day to likely decide the title.

Drew 1-1 with 10 man Arsenal. 80th minute lob over the keeper for them to equalise. 2 points ahead of Livepool with 1 to play. We're going to lose to them on the last day and lose the title, can feel it.

1-2 against Chelsea. 88th minute from a corner. Hernandez still hasn't scored. With Liverpool beating QPR 4-0 I've dropped to 2nd after being in 1st from game 9.

Destroyed Newcastle. 3-0. Hernadez brace + Rio header. Let's see what Liverpool have done.. 2-1 over Blackburn. Petrovic misses an 87th minute penalty that would have let me draw the last match and still win the title.

Need to beat them away. Jeez, that's not pressure is it.

If we're going to lose we might as well lose by a dozen. Overload. 4-4-2. High Pressing.

2 Minutes: Rooney scores on a throughball, probably offside, flagged. No goal.
15: We have our first shot on target. Wide. We're getting dominated. Switch to 4-2-3-1
18: Gerrard. 35 yarder. We've saved our worst performance of the season for last it seems. 1-0.
40: switch to 4-2-3-1 has made inroads.
45: Hairdryer.
52: Chance from a corner. Blasted wide by Hazard.
53: Hazard hits a cahce at the keeper.
60: Muller for Nani, Vidal for Jones.
70: Gerrard 25 yarder. 2-0. Looks like we're fucked.
85: Still losing.
90: Still losing.
90: Liverpool goal disallowed for a foul.
92: I hate this fucking game. Fuck you SI and your stupid morale bullshit and nonsensical goal droughts.
92+1: Sacked.

Quit. Deleted save.

This version easily my worst performances ever. I can't remember ever been sacked twice in a single version. I've played three saves, been sacked twice and quite the other because of a game ruining match engine bug.

Not sure if I feel like doing a dafuge challenge this year. Can't help but feel I'll play for 800 hours then get sacked because of a stupid own goal like that other thread here. Played FM for around 200 hours already according to Steam. :/

:lol: I just had Cape Verde move up 54 places in the world rankings, and it's only July 2012.

If i get it i will take international teams.

Ok, so just bought FM12. Started up a save, but no Logos/Kits etc are showing up at all. I started putting in custom ones before I started the save, and those showed up, but nothing else is...HELP??!?
