Anyone else got a game going? Currently on my fifth year at QPR.

Season five; Back end of Jan and I'm 2nd, one point off 1st


Here's my team now (Boyd usually plays on left, got a player banned at momment);

What did you win at those clubs?

[Adamm]

Erm 4 league titles with Celtic, numerous Scottish cups and crap.

Had Jo, Adebayor, Hart, Adu, Neymar, Diaby, Ferdinand.

Won FA Cup with Arsenal, left before I was fired because £30m Marquinhos decided not to score.

Not won anything with Madrid yet. Will probably move on after this season, maybe to Italy.

[TickTockTickTock]

Nice, stuck with QPR. In my sixth season with them now and won the Championship last year. Third year in the Prem after being in the league below for a season.

Did get offered a job with Spurs however I have that on another save because I wanted to stick with QPR.

Made a few signings in the past like Elano, Ronaldinho, Puyol who all did the job for the sixth month contracts they had.

Here's my team for the new season about to start, just sorting out a deal for Hleb then I'll be done till Jan.

And the best signing I've made by far:

[Adamm]

Oh aye I had Ronaldinho at Celtic as well, £46k a week and he was pants.

I would've stuck with Celtic but I was getting really bored because I was getting better and better but the league was stuck so it was win after win, no real money, no real talent in the league so Europe was a no no.

[TickTockTickTock]

That's why I've never managed in Scotland. Hleb didn't join me because he wanted first team football at 33 in the Premiership.

Know a decent RM? In 2014.

[Adamm]

I have that kid at Madrid. Solid, gets assists as well.

[TickTockTickTock]

Nice one, looks class. Put in a £6,000,000 bid with another £4,000,000 over a number of months.

[Brody]

im gunna start a new fm when the updated patch is out :)

[Geraint]

promoted with cardiff in my first season. havent started second as i've no idea what good players to buy to keep me up. havent played for ages and can't find my way back in when i decided to go on it if you get me.

[RatedRShadow]

Wow! Hey guys, where can i download this? It looks way better than the one on PSP.

Still got the QPR save going however I wanted a change for a bit. Went on holiday and came back to see who were struggling, Villa are 19th. Got to try and save them from relegation with a squad of mercenaries because I'm in April.

Aww.. Good luck in saving Villa. Btw, what's Chelsea rank?

[Adamm]

Buy it. It's probably the only game I buy. This and FIFA. They're worth it.

Btw Matty, you're cheating by having numerous saves on one game going in different directions.

[RatedRShadow]

Alright, i shall check out the price. Compared to PSP, is it really worth it?

[Adamm]

Well if you don't want to see outside for weeks at a time, yeah, buy it. It's worth every penny. Every year I hound out money for it. You can probably pick it up for about 15 now.

[TickTockTickTock]

Behave! How is it cheating? Anyway I've been on my QPR save again, much better.

[Adamm]

Because you make different decisions and if it doesn't work out you go back. It's like replaying a cup final if you lose. CHEAT0R!

[TickTockTickTock]

Not really? You buy different players and aim for different things? :S

Anyway... welcome to QPR!

[Adamm]

But you got there on 1 save. Not 3/4 different ones. It's cheating Matthew.

Take it you love genie scout as well?

I did that for some games lol. They were must wins and I refused to lose to Huddersfield 7-4 after being 4-1 up at half-time. Just like real life.

[Adamm]

Peterborough LOL.

Behave yourself, you're knit picking. If I wish to see what I can do on my game then so be it. It doesn't affect you. Anyway, I'm enjoying my QPR one at the mo'.

Currently broke at the moment. If possible, any download link for that? I'm downloading the demo version of it now.

[Browney]

I'm saving up my pennies now that Christmas and Valentines day are finally over.

[TickTockTickTock]

I don't think Adam likes the images of my scouts. :(

Dude, pay for it.

[TickTockTickTock]

Dude, pay for it.
Do you have good scouts.

[Adamm]

Genie scout |-)|-)|-).

Actually no, I do scouting myself.

[TickTockTickTock]

Don't know why people use Genie scouts, defeats the object of having staff.


Just started a new MCFC game and getting in all my staff and getting rid of the Taffia.

[Adamm]

To be honest a QPR game sounds bang on.

[TickTockTickTock]

A QPR game is good however once in a while you need to start a new game and do this...

http://img246.imageshack.us/img246/4730/gone.png

[Adamm]

Started with Newcastle actually. Need to get rid of the debt first :(

[TickTockTickTock]

Got my stafff now for my players!

[Adamm]

Dos Santos, Gibson and Weiss all on loan.

Win Championship or sack myself.

[TickTockTickTock]

Weiss is rubbish on FM. :(

[Black_Apalachi]

Get this rubbish into the Gaming forum :'( oj lol, just never got interested in managerial games!

[RatedRShadow]

Hurray! Just got the game, installing now. But gonna take a nap before Chelsea match and shall play all the way. :)

[TickTockTickTock]

Anyone clarify that the update is coming out this weekend?

[Adamm]

End of this month/start of next.

Waiting for it so they can sort Rovers out. Always underrate everyone and everything.

[Brody]

Im looking forward to the update

plan to manage portsmouth again.

i done a portsmouth season on the first patch got 6 season into it and did pretty well. Managed to win the league cup in my first year and in my 5th year or 6th i managed to break the top 4. :)

[RatedRShadow]

Hey guys, where can i find the the full form of Inf? So far, i only know Inj stands for Injured.

[Adamm]

That happened to me when I got a new laptop and copied it over, it was because I tried to play it on a different patch to what the save game was on.

[Grainger@CUFC]

I started a game with Carlisle and won the league and JPT in the first season, made some quality signings. Some definite purchases for lower league teams and when you get into the Championship. I haven't spent a penny on players seeing as Carlisle's transfer budget is £0, even when I got promoted.

League 1 team:
Bertrand Bossu (free agent)
Miguel Com*****s (loan, Cardiff)
Danny Livesey
John Kennedy (free agent)
Evan Horwood
Kevan Hurst
Pedro Moutinho (free agent after leaving Falkirk)
Eugen Bopp (free agent after leaving Portsmouth)
Vincent Pericard
Febian Brandy (loan, Man Utd)

Other signings: Sofiane Zaaboub (free agent)

Signings for the Championship:
Calum Davenport (free agent after leaving West Ham, can't play until January 2011 though)
Graham Alexander (free agent after leaving Burnley)
David N'Gog (loan, Liverpool)
Krisztian Nemeth (loan, Liverpool)

There's probably more, but I can't remember :(

[RatedRShadow]

Did anyone try signing Gonzalo Higuaín? Real Madrid actually asked me to pay them $100m for him.

[Andys]

I've had amazing progress with Asmir Begovic in goal (better than Enyeama and Ochoa in my opinion.)

Also Jó is immense in game if you pick him up about third season in you can get him cheap :)

[RatedRShadow]

I actually signed Stevan Jovetic. He's pretty good. Anyone know how to set their kit number? It's appear blank on his jersey.

[Geraint]

Should tell you what number you want to set for him after you sign.


Anyone got any good CB's which are pretty cheap. Looking for around £5m.

[StefanWolves]

im hooked on fifa ultimate team at the moment :l

It doesn't show what number i wanted to set. It just showed if i want to confirm the deal. Anyway, you can try signing Breno (or rather Steve Taylor).

[brandon]

Go to your squad and bottom right-hand corner there should be a button that says 'Change'. That's if you're playing as a Premier League team anyway, the registration window has to be open.

He doesn't want to come. I tried to sign him on loan as he's available. Either that or I can't afford his wages, might be that.

Maybe you can sign him when you can afford him.

[Geraint]

Yeah, I could but my board won't allow me to spend £40k on his wages. By the time I have the money, he'd have gone up more. Just gonna have to look elsewhere. One of his team-mates Badstuber is good but he won't come to me. Took me an age to negotiate a price with Bayern for that too.

That's what i kind of hate.. Even if i offer twice the amount of their value, they still won't come over.

[Geraint]

I even arse lick them on the interaction thing sometimes but that never works.
