They hadn't played. They were 100% fit. But it had the red 'Unr' symbol next to them.

Took the Australian job just before the Asian Cup. Came to the day to pick the squad and for some reason it had already been picked and confirmed, I couldn't change it. Was a pretty shit squad, and we just got knocked out in the quarter finals by Japan, and so the Aus FA fired me. :lol: Fuck em.

:lol: Just noticed that, in my current season (15/16), Ibrox is hosting the Champions League final. I have to get there and win it now. Would make it so much sweeter.

It'll be funny when you go out at the semi's.

Haha, I would be stoked to make it that far:lol:

7 Games into the new season and Goodwillie has 15 goals already.

New keeper makes his debut. Loses 8-1. Requests transfer. I :lol:

Michael Theoklitos. That is all :lol:

Started a new game with PSG. Trying to avoid buying anyone over 24.

Got bored of PSG. Took me 5 hours to setup, played three games. lol.

Having the best run I have ever had in the League Cup with my Wrexham side, we are in our first year in League One, currently battling out top spot with four other teams but so far we have beaten Nottm Forest (L1), West Brom (Prem), Man City (Prem) and Blackburn (Prem). I have just drawn Middlesbrough (Ch) in the next round...

My general transfer policy is nobody over 26. I can't justify spending 40m on a player who's 28 and I'm only going to get 4 good seasons out of.

Getting this for Xmas. Yew.

Dunno where to start though.

Might use x-mas money to buy. Thinking of taking a really, really low team. Looking for a challenge.

Liverpool. Duh.

Nah.

26 shots, 2 on target to my oppositions 4 shots, 1 on target. 0-0. God this game can be frustrating.

At least you didn't lose...

My league cup run was finally stopped - beat Middlesbrough 2 nil then drew Chelsea in the semi's... lost 1 nil away from home and lost 2 - 3 at home... Not a bad run, we are now sitting 4th in League 1 - 3 games in hand of top spot and 4 points behind... Should be able to get back on top after the make up games... With the run I have had of premier league teams playing at my home ground I MAY actually make a profit this year...

Just got FM12, for some reason the logos of teams/leagues and faces aren't showing up. Iirc someone on here had the same problem? Anyone know how to fix it?

Funky had the same problem... he loaded it up one day and it had just fixed itself.

I'm installing mine now too... I bought the disc but I still have to DL it through steam? Weird.

It's doing 1mb a second though so wont take too long.

Ideas on where to start...

I fucking hate Steam. It's not launching the fucking game. Why can't I just play it like normal ffs.

Started a new game with Spurs, first game on FM12 where ive actually had a transfer budget!

Started at Celtic.

First action - sell Samaras.
Funky to respond.

Is it just me or is Gomes completely fucking useless in this game! In a game v Chelsea he missed a backpass and then proceeded to kick into his own net and ive lost count of how many times he's come for a ball and completely missed it.

Looks like the developers were spot on with his characteristics.

Any recommendations on AMC or GK signings for Celtic?

AMC - Bressan (BATE), De Bruyne (Genk) both superstars available cheaply. Marco Veratti (Pescara) for the future under 500k. Another budget option is Tom (Litex) who is versatile and quality.

GK - Ochoa (America MEX) is quality again.

Now I've got no job and a few months free before uni goes back I've found my copy of FM10 and decided to start a save with Sevilla, first piece of business is sell off the dead wood and the senior citizens, use the cash to make a few quality signings and then use the left overs to snap up some quality young players who fit my mould of fluid attacking football.

In: VDV, Subotic, Di Maria, Canales, Aquino, Salvio, Balotelli, Silviu Lung Jr, Verratti, Muniain
Out: Half the squad pretty much.

Madrid come poking around at Squilaci though and he gets all antsy and requests a transfer, his release clause is around 15mil and I'm hoping to get close to that, Madrid are offering me 3mil, whereas much smaller clubs are offering fuckloads more but I doubt he will agree a contract with anyone but Madrid.

Lining up like this

--------------Palop-------------
-Adriano-Subotic--Escude-Navarro
---------Fazio------------------
----------------VDV-------------
---Navas----------------Di Maria
--------Fabiano-----Kanoute-----

I was intending to sell Kanoute but he has been my best player thus far, although Navas and Di Maria are playing very well together and starting to overlap brilliantly. I'm aiming for third place at minimum, with a view to knocking off Madrid and Barca in second season
