Currently at July 2015 have won Euros (France), World Cup (England) and the Copa America (Argentina). Just the Asian Cup, Gold Cup and African Cup of Nations to go.

Twice now, I've sent a player out to get a work permit, he's done the 3 years, but then doesn't get the papers because he 'can't speak basic dutch or French' (He's in Belgium). Isn't the language something they should be teaching him IN THE 3 FARKEN YEARS HE WAS IN THE COUNTRY?!?!?

Drew Bayern in the UCL first KO round... scraped a 1-0 win at home, lost 2-1 away so went through on away goals :D

Drew Dortmund in the Quarters... just played the home leg and drew 3-3. Annoying, should have won.

Won the league with 9 games to go, league is way too easy now. Got an approach from Leverkusen, delayed until end of season, will probs bail then. Celtic is fun, but at this point domestic is too easy and Europe is too few and far between to stay for.

I'm having a hard time keeping clean sheets. Got a top class defence (Enrique, Otamendi, Subotic, Johnson, Reina) Any suggestions?

maybe your Defensive line is too far forward and you leaving gaps in behind?

Definitely not. I place my defensive line based around where their strikers are. A lot of the goals come from outside the box.

perhaps Reina has dropped in terms of shot stopping. Give him individual training there or your defenders are not closing them down in time.

With long range goals its not a case of not defending, but more a case of how you stopping those shots and how is your keepers positioning.

Just won Cup Final 3-0.

1 week and then UCL Final. My captain and my epic striker are both suspended. I'm so fucked.

Either way, so proud of the lads for making it this far.

That's almost as bad as in the old 2D days when you'd see the keeper stop the ball on his own goal line and then turn around.

Chelsea Sacked at the start of March, Chelsea were sitting 8th. Since then, replacement Holloway opened with 4 consecutive 0-0 draws before defeating Wigan in a FA cup 6th round replay at home 2-1 and then losing his next three matches. Chelsea currently sit in 10th.

Buy a winger for 6m, only 19.

Season and a Half later, he's averaging 7.8, and already has 10+ goals and assists by January.

Receive bid of 4m, which is 3.7m over 30 months.

Chairman accepts over your head.

AND THEN. THEY HAVE THE FUCKEN BALLS.

I was so proud of my team for drawing with Real Madrid to keep us in third and give Barcelona a slim chance to break Real's dominance over the league.
A week later this happened.

I decided to pick up my old game from FM 09 with Queens Park in the Scottish 3rd division. The team has the potential for a fun game. They play at Hampton Park in Glasgow which is about 52,000 capacity yet averaged only 600 in my game :lol:
Anyway i was struggling big time and went as low as 8th in a 10 team league. Got 2 good loanees and signed a couple of good players and went on a amazing end of season run of winning the last 9 out of 10 matches. The top side gets automatically promoted while 2nd to 4th do a play-off which also involves second last of the second division.
I got to the final of the play off and thought i had a good chance to get promoted.
I lost the first leg 3-0 away and thought im fucked, the one bad game i had in ages and i get thumped.
In the second leg at home it was 0-0 at HT and i thought i was a goner. Did the talk "we must get a result here no excuses" and this is what happened.




:cool:
C'mon you spiders! Now for division 2

Does anyone know how the number of days need to become a nationality works in Spain?
I bought some foreign players to play in my Youth and B teams hoping to promote them in the next couple of years but it seems that if they aren't South American they have to spend double the time in the country before they can become spainish. Ukrainians and Belorussians not having a European passport also stuffed up my plans.

Some countries like the Ukraine, Belarus, Zimbabwe, etc. won't let their players hold dual passports and this has been implemented in the game for FM12.

It's 730 days in spain regardless of where you're from but you have to be able to speak spanish.
