FlippinEck 3,734 Posted April 6, 2008 Share Posted April 6, 2008 I cant Ferkin believe it, and im trying not to count my chickens, but i got west ham in the fa cup, and ephraim, one of my star performers on his loan so far cant play, anyway, ive set out my 4-5-1 at upton park, told the press that my team would show west ham how to play when they claimed i was underdogs, my other great striker videira said he wasnt as confident and before the game i said i had faith in his ability, anyway, 5 minutes in, im 2-0 up!!!! and videira scored both goals!! I ll probably get beat 5-2 now or something edit: 15 minutes in, 2-2, bastard, shouldnt have posted edit: 35 yard free kick off the post, scramble in the box and faubert own goals it, 3-2!! down to 10 men as someone gets treatment and the make it 3-3! Its halftime got beat, 6-3 got to the 5th round of the FA cup with my blue square premier team, pretty pleased with that! Now back to business in the setanta shield and FA Trophy im actually top of the league, won a good few and ive drawn about 6 games lost 0, ive got about 5 players on loan from premiership clubs and i got lots of bosmans at the start of the season, some gap players for a season or 2, some for the future, and im pretty much dominating my league, it will be different when if i move up i think but i ll try and get some more bosmans/loans Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Need to keep your eye on the players who are out of favour and/or have expiring contracts and pounce quick to get them. You should get some guys set up to join in January on pre-contracts for the summer, that way your prepared. I think I might be starting a new game. Since I lost half my progress in the last one I just can't be arsed playing it again. Not sure who to go, any reccomendations ? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
demise 3,573 Posted April 6, 2008 Share Posted April 6, 2008 I played with Rangers against Roma at Olimpico.The bastards scored early goal then between 31-38 Fergie scored two and Boyd - one so i took the lead with 3:1.I started to think that the game is over but that prick Totti scores twice between 70-80 min so it becomes 3:3.Then Boydie scores another goal in 88 min so i thought this time it`s over.But then i received 2 new goals from that Totti and lost the game with 4:5 I can`t believe this.. Also,whatever i do in SPL,even 20 wins in a row,when it comes match against the fuckin` timothy i always got beaten Even they are 7-8th place... But the rules are different sometimes so i am quitting the game,joining again and playing until i beat that green-white idiots Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
J_RFC87 761 Posted April 6, 2008 Share Posted April 6, 2008 SHIT... I was going to quit the game there and I decided I would play one more match, so, the idiot that i am, instead of clicking cancel I clicked No, which meant no, don't save. So I have lost everything back to my 4th game against leicester. Gutted. These are the kind of things that waste good games. there is an automative save option Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

andy500 463 Posted April 7, 2008 Share Posted April 7, 2008 Right, due to the muck up with QPR I decided to go my local team, Hamilton Accies. The only teams I've bought/loaned from have been SPL teams. I now can't sign anyone from Scotland on loan this season as I have four. I bought Alan Lithgow, a young Hearts defender and Calum Reidford, the Rangers reserve goalie for a total amount of about £16k. I loaned out Steven Lennon and Dean Furman from Rangers, Rocco Quinn from Celtic and Ross Chislom from Hibs. Not allowed any more loans from Scotland so does anyone have good freebies or abroad loan players I could get ? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

chrism_scotland 165 Posted May 17, 2008 Share Posted May 17, 2008 Started a new game, usually go Rangers but to be honest kind of fed up with them. Started off at Sparta Prague, who were decent to begin with but signed a couple of players, mainly young folk from the Czech Republic that I know are good like Sverkos, also signed Weir on loan as the defence was woeful. Managed to qualify for the Champions League, unfortunately beating a woeful Rangers side in the third qualifying round. Top of the Czech League by 10 points but hammered in the CL group despite good away draws against Seville and Arsenal. Gubbed at home though : ( Resigned as manager of Sparta Prague in January and was given the West Brom job, lying 18th in the Championship and Mowbray had been fired. Signed Thomas Buffel for 300k who went on to score some vital goals in the league and the FA Cup. Managed to turn the team around, not sure if it was different players I picked or tactics but the team was unstoppable, winning 15 in a row to go top 6 in the league, FA Cup run all the way to the final putting out Arsenal, Portsmouth, Barnsley and then Liverpool in the Semi's. 3-2 win in the final with a Buffel hat-trick! After taking over 18th managed to win the Championship on the last day of the season with a 2-1 win over Sheffield United. Was going to stay to try and establish the side back in the EPL but George Burley left Scotland and was given the Scotland job for Euro 2008, excellent run all the way to the semi's where I got put out by an amazing Italy performance. Wanted club management and when Walter Smith was fired after a woeful season for Rangers they didn't have to offer the job twice. Just starting season two manager of Scotland and of Rangers, but will likely step down from Scotland to concentrate on making Rangers a domestic and European force once more.

FlippinEck 3,734 Posted May 19, 2008 Share Posted May 19, 2008 lol fmformation.net is a great site for updates and the like got my oxford out of the blue square and into league 2, won my first game at home pumping bristol city (relegated from the season before from league 1) 4-1 then drew away in the second game. went to QPR and won in the league cup but games are a lot tighter, my team made up of bosmans strolled the blue square but i need to make "quality" signings now. i got toudic and odejayi but ode seems a bit useless, toudic is a beast though, kept ephraim on loan who scored 40 goals in 38 appearances last season and still have my young portugese striker vidiera. brought in william easton and jamie adams from the spl along with 2 young st mirren midfielders who i stole on freebies. got mckenna back on loan from the prem but need to try and get a couple more. I set myself the target of promotion by taking a higher budget so I have to deliver Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
