Title: SM.com 2 Post by: scotty2hatty on June 25, 2008, 03:20:56 PM CLUBS AND MANAGERS
jizzemm - WREXHAM gatso - HUDDERSFIELD maldini32 - BOURNEMOUTH TightEnd - CHESTERFIELD Rookie - PORT VALE booder - GILLINGHAM Steelio - GRIMSBY Silo Graham - BRENTFORD vegaslover - NORTHAMPTON Nakor - LEYTON ORIENT Colchester Kev - DARLINGTON scotty2hatty - STOCKPORT DUNK619 - CREWE Pelham Boy - CHELTENHAM ChipRich - ROCHDALE AndrewT - LUTON Josedinho - LINCOLN Horneris - BRADFORD mondatoo - BRIGHTON pokerram - ROTHERHAM dino1980 - YEOVIL* seven2unsuited - MK DONS* Ironside - BRISTOL ROVERS* rossfourfive - PETERBOROUGH* Ok, so it's pretty obv that one game isn't enough for some people and some have expressed an interest in playing 2 or 3 games. The first few weeks of a new game are obv the busiest with all the transfer activity etc but I'm sure once the transfer bans are over that this activity will pick up again. I'll set up blonde league 2 shortly if we have enough interest. Firstly, we need suggestions for a new game format as perhaps people now know better how the game works and might have selected different teams if they knew - (itb?). Rookie suggested "Players put forward a team they want. Once everyone has said then all names go into a hat and get drawn out randomly" in the other thread. A possible suggestion may be to keep the English leagues as they are and then once we get a set of players we have a random draw to see who gets which team in either the English Prem or Championship. Interest and suggestions in here please..... Title: Re: SM.com 2 Post by: TightEnd on June 25, 2008, 03:23:38 PM another possiblity, very popular, is to do a 4 division world League where the top 20 teams are put in the bottom division, the challenge for all players is to get to the top league and win the title first
Title: Re: SM.com 2 Post by: AndrewT on June 25, 2008, 03:32:07 PM Is it possible to block off teams from being managed?
If so, I'd suggest a normal English league, but only teams in Div 4 can be managed (randomly, by draw). Title: Re: SM.com 2 Post by: rossfourfive on June 25, 2008, 05:41:12 PM Is it possible to block off teams from being managed? If so, I'd suggest a normal English league, but only teams in Div 4 can be managed (randomly, by draw). I think that's a good idea. Either that or stick the prem teams in the fourth division. Whatever decision is made i'm up for it. Title: Re: SM.com 2 Post by: gatso on June 25, 2008, 06:14:17 PM people now know better how the game works and might have selected different teams if they knew - (itb?). lol, he did pick a different team. I like the idea of all having shit teams and of randomly picking who has which team Title: Re: SM.com 2 Post by: Colchester Kev on June 25, 2008, 06:16:18 PM people now know better how the game works and might have selected different teams if they knew - (itb?). lol, he did pick a different team. I like the idea of all having shit teams and of randomly picking who has which team +1 as long as tighty doesnt get Leicester :D Title: Re: SM.com 2 Post by: mondatoo on June 25, 2008, 06:29:08 PM I'm up for manging 2nd team. Kev don't you think you've got enough on your hands ? lol
Title: Re: SM.com 2 Post by: TightEnd on June 25, 2008, 06:30:04 PM people now know better how the game works and might have selected different teams if they knew - (itb?). lol, he did pick a different team. I like the idea of all having shit teams and of randomly picking who has which team +1 as long as tighty doesnt get Leicester :D no the idea is it will be bottom division teams only. Safe for another 11 months then Title: Re: SM.com 2 Post by: scotty2hatty on June 25, 2008, 06:42:46 PM Either Division 2 or Division 4 would be good imo. I'm perhaps swaying towards preferring Div 2, but would be happy either way.
Title: Re: SM.com 2 Post by: gatso on June 25, 2008, 06:44:10 PM Either Division 2 or Division 4 would be good imo. I'm perhaps swaying towards Div 2. 4 ftw Title: Re: SM.com 2 Post by: scotty2hatty on June 25, 2008, 06:45:40 PM Either Division 2 or Division 4 would be good imo. I'm perhaps swaying towards Div 2. 4 ftw With Div 4 teams or moving Div 1 teams there? Title: Re: SM.com 2 Post by: TightEnd on June 25, 2008, 06:46:03 PM 4
I got quite into taking Shrewsbury through the leagues to Champions League Qualifiication Title: Re: SM.com 2 Post by: scotty2hatty on June 25, 2008, 06:53:02 PM 4 I got quite into taking Shrewsbury through the leagues to Champions League Qualifiication Yeah, I would really enjoy a game like that. This could work if everyone is interested. Title: Re: SM.com 2 Post by: pokerram on June 25, 2008, 07:00:11 PM im up for it too

Title: Re: SM.com 2 Post by: dino1980 on June 25, 2008, 07:58:05 PM I'll be down whatever. FWIW I've just taken over Huddesfield in a setup they're a good 4th div side + have a 25,000 capacity ground. It's just good having to wheel and deal like Harry.
Title: Re: SM.com 2 Post by: TightEnd on June 25, 2008, 08:00:23 PM I'll be down whatever.

It's just good having to wheel and deal like Harry. lol I took Hudd in one cos of capacity Darlo are good to try with a new gorund too Title: Re: SM.com 2 Post by: scotty2hatty on June 25, 2008, 08:16:06 PM Awesome, looks like this will be a goer. That's like 10 interested people already - not including rooks or horneris who have posted in here yet. When we have 20ish we'll draw random Division 4 clubs. I'll do this with one of the fellow blondes I have on MSN.
Title: Re: SM.com 2 Post by: mondatoo on June 25, 2008, 08:17:17 PM Is it 2 weeks b4 we can start this yeah ?
Title: Re: SM.com 2 Post by: scotty2hatty on June 25, 2008, 08:43:54 PM Our ratings are 43, and I'm led to believe they need to be 44 which I think they will be after either Thursday or Sunday.
Title: Re: SM.com 2 Post by: Pelham Boy on June 25, 2008, 08:46:19 PM Count me in please.
Title: Re: SM.com 2 Post by: Rookie (Rodney) on June 25, 2008, 10:13:35 PM I like the idea of random teams in div 4 But think it would be good if we all picked 1 team (any team, good, bad) to go into the hat rather than keep it English league only.
Title: Re: SM.com 2 Post by: maldini32 on June 25, 2008, 10:16:49 PM I take it this a bit like online champ man, if it is count me in.

Doesn't seem a popular suggestion! Yeah but i mean all them teams are div 4 - so a mixture of both. Title: Re: SM.com 2 Post by: vegaslover on June 25, 2008, 10:42:00 PM Im up for it, random teams in div 4 so you have to work your way up

Title: Re: SM.com 2 Post by: Ironside on June 26, 2008, 07:59:44 AM no idea what it is but put me down
fk my life i aint got time for life Title: Re: SM.com 2 Post by: jizzemm on June 26, 2008, 11:21:57 AM Im in... FTW...
Would love to take my home club Wrexham to the Premiership plz plz put them in... There even worse than tighty's team and thats saying something.. Title: Re: SM.com 2 Post by: dan on June 26, 2008, 11:48:18 AM Put me down for this I would like to be Rochdale but not really bothered.
I fancied the other one but missed the start. Title: Re: SM.com 2 Post by: gatso on June 26, 2008, 11:56:33 AM this is starting to look like it might need to be bottom 2 divisions
Title: Re: SM.com 2 Post by: Steelio on June 26, 2008, 12:35:08 PM I'll have another team plz, I think the teams should be drawn out
Title: Re: SM.com 2 Post by: scotty2hatty on June 26, 2008, 02:35:04 PM By my reckoning that is c.20 people interested in the new game which is pretty sweet.
As soon as our ratings hit 44 (hopefully tonight or Sunday) I'll set this game up and complete a random draw. People who have recently joined the first game and wish to play this one too will need to have two soccermanager accounts using a different e-mail - easy enough done. Title: Re: SM.com 2 Post by: Horneris on June 26, 2008, 02:41:26 PM I'm In.
Although i will refuse to play if i get Man Utd in the draw. Title: Re: SM.com 2 Post by: DUNK619 on June 26, 2008, 02:43:59 PM im up 4 this
Title: Re: SM.com 2 Post by: jizzemm on June 26, 2008, 02:50:43 PM two soccermanager accounts using a different e-mail - easy enough done. Not that easy... I used different email and DOB and they still matched me.. Maybe I should have used name as well, but they stopped me getting a Div 4 blonde league team because of multiple accounts.. lol.. In 2nd game, in Div 4, I would really like to have Wrexham plz..., i would have taken them in game 1 had i been quick enough.. I know your thinking of doing a draw... but can it be fixed..

i think the general consensus was random teams in the bottom English league - should be cracking and the game should have more longevity. Obv if you would prefer a team in the higher leagues then feel free to say. Title: Re: SM.com 2 Post by: vegaslover on July 19, 2008, 07:30:05 PM hi mate, hope hols were good, if ill timed ;)

I bought some wonder-kid according to the other thread from nigeria i believe.I also used my own tiny little amount of knowledge and have bought cathcart from man utd he could be greatest signing on this game ever imo, or a waste of 800k time will tell LOL. As i have one of the worst teams i'm not expecting to much Title: Re: SM.com 2 Post by: Graham C on July 21, 2008, 10:21:54 PM thanks for gazumping me on Dudek Dafydd! I am going to struggle in this...crap squad, no cash, no stadium capacity! Can you do anything about stadium sizes in the future? I guess not but how do you take a team like ours to the top of the Prem and conquor Europe without a decent size stadium to pay the bills? Do all the finances have to come from player buying and selling? Title: Re: SM.com 2 Post by: TightEnd on July 21, 2008, 10:24:29 PM yes, basically
far easier with an intrinsically bigger club like bradford, huddersfield with 25k+ capacities as its self funding with a 10k capacity its about spotting kids, buying well, sellling on and reinvesting and doing that cycle again smaller squads to keep wages bills down too and good loan players Title: Re: SM.com 2 Post by: vegaslover on July 22, 2008, 01:04:21 AM finally got it to accept my email confirmation.

Title: Re: SM.com 2 Post by: TightEnd on July 23, 2008, 11:20:03 AM two of my kids have taken control of Man U and Chelsea with Scotty's permission
In the interests of openness and fairness I should inform you that I will be attempting to take a couple of their youngsters on loan. Nothing to stop any of you trying to do so either. I won't influence their decisions either way. Title: Re: SM.com 2 Post by: Graham C on July 23, 2008, 11:30:23 AM hmmm Terry at Brentford, not too far for him to travel I'm sure ;)

I missed out on Sears too - he went to Brighton for the same price I bid. He will be a good signing. Title: Re: SM.com 2 Post by: scotty2hatty on July 23, 2008, 02:33:36 PM How does everyone feel about opening the game up to allow outsiders to manage the Div 1 sides? It is beneficial in that it allows loan deals for us lower clubs.
Views please. Title: Re: SM.com 2 Post by: TightEnd on July 23, 2008, 02:44:25 PM Sorry if I've caused problems with this
My view is the game should be opened up to other managers once all of us have the teams in the bottom division why? - for lower division sides, loans are a vital part of the game. Its a skill getting loans accepted, and then another skill integrating them into our financial structure. Also with small squads loans are crucial. Logically you throw the league open to others, then have a wide pool of teams to loan from. Of course if people disagree I'll withdraw the two applications I've made to loan players from Man U/Chelsea. No bother. I've also told my boys to treat the league like any other, if they wouldn't normally loan a player out don't do it. Obviously I'd rather not ask them to withdraw from the league..Man U and Chelsea teams are rare as rocking horse manure, and managing those doesn't interfere with our league, hence why I asked Scott's permission for them to join.

Views please. my first instinct is that I don't really like it, the whole point of this 2nd setup was to create a more level playing field and challenging environment for the managed teams. I'd prefer the top teams to remain comp controlled. also don't really want to make it easy for kev to get loan players Title: Re: SM.com 2 Post by: Steelio on July 23, 2008, 03:30:24 PM How does everyone feel about opening the game up to allow outsiders to manage the Div 1 sides?

Title: Re: SM.com 2 Post by: Graham C on July 23, 2008, 03:46:58 PM I guess I should withdraw mine? Not sure Carlo would want to come to Brentford anyway.
Title: Re: SM.com 2 Post by: ChipRich on July 23, 2008, 05:45:16 PM I say have a vote.
I think being able to loan from the higher leagues would be good for us and make it more realistic. Horneris just told me he disagrees though, but only cos he has a massive edge with Bradford, loadsa money and massive stadium. Vote plz! Title: Re: SM.com 2 Post by: TightEnd on July 23, 2008, 05:49:58 PM just to let managers know the lads have rejected all loan requests for the time being
the likes of Bradford will disagree with loans, even in a fourth division championship there are haves and have nots and inbuilt biases due to ground sizes etc..its not a level playing field and nor should it be Loans, as in real life, give the smaller clubs with less money a shot and the managers a chance to exercise skill in another area I'll happily go with a vote on allowing loans, whatever it decides Title: Re: SM.com 2 Post by: ChipRich on July 23, 2008, 05:52:35 PM Defo, i think if were including loans from Man U and Chelsea, we should allow other ppl to come in league and take over them teams too so we have opportunity to loan other players too.
lets gogogogo. Get a vote going. Title: Re: SM.com 2 Post by: Nakor on July 23, 2008, 06:02:20 PM Spoke to Scotty this afternoon about this. I was anti at first but it does no real harm. I say let them except Loan applications from Midday Sunday, everyone should then see this thread, nobody gets an advantage.
Obv happy to go with a vote. Title: Re: SM.com 2 Post by: gatso on July 23, 2008, 06:04:27 PM yeah, let's give it a couple of days to let everyone see the thread and discuss it before a vote as it's a really big change to the league if we go with it

If we're voting i say yes. In real life there would be loans and its not as if we're going to be loaning ridic good players. i also vote yes to open the big teams up to randoms once everyone has their team. Title: Re: SM.com 2 Post by: Pelham Boy on July 23, 2008, 07:15:58 PM My first reaction is to stay as we are. It doesn't do me any favours,with my low buget and small ground,but that was the idea behind taking teams from the bottom division.
Title: Re: SM.com 2 Post by: pokerram on July 23, 2008, 09:44:11 PM Blonde plus tightys 2. We all trust each other in this. Heard alot of cheats in other leagues. But ill happily go along with majority.
Title: Re: SM.com 2 Post by: Colchester Kev on July 23, 2008, 09:59:46 PM Sigh ... I wanted to take a big team in this and loan loads of players to my Darlington ... i spose i cant do that now :(

Title: Re: SM.com 2 Post by: mondatoo on July 23, 2008, 10:10:31 PM I believe loans can be an intregal part of a lower lge side so i say do it as it will make it more realistic.We are still all going to struggle with poor teams so that isn't going to change.
Title: Re: SM.com 2 Post by: scotty2hatty on July 23, 2008, 10:12:13 PM it's only 3 loans though, so perhaps it doesn't have as much of a vital part to play.

Title: Re: SM.com 2 Post by: rossfourfive on July 26, 2008, 09:14:10 PM Just tightys 2 boys ... and NO loans imo. Gets my vote Yes, this is what I think is for the best. Why though? Surely having more teams managed and being able to take players on loan is only going to improve it. As has been said, its what happens in real life so it'll make it more realistic imo Title: Re: SM.com 2 Post by: Nakor on July 26, 2008, 09:44:26 PM Is it about realism? You are never going to get offered the West Brom job, or Liverpool if you go well as I understand it.
In my eyes its about building a team to progress, that progression and competition is going to be pure, the 20 odd of us against each other see who can get a small team the furthest - the game will buy our players, move players around and allow us to barter and make money. For this to be the most amount of fun why decrease the pool of players available for us? Why compete against those we dont know in this game. We will all be able to have another game soon, set that one up as a free choice of teams and then open that one up to anybody, Blonde against the world. Title: Re: SM.com 2 Post by: rossfourfive on July 26, 2008, 09:52:06 PM Is it about realism? You are never going to get offered the West Brom job, or Liverpool if you go well as I understand it.

Title: Re: SM.com 2 Post by: Colchester Kev on July 26, 2008, 10:27:57 PM If Tightys boys put anyone on the transfer list, they are fair game imo. just no loan deals as that could just cause unnecessary squabbling.

Title: Re: SM.com 2 Post by: scotty2hatty on August 03, 2008, 08:27:32 PM Wrexham 1 Stockport 2
Stockport County fought back from 1-0 down at half time to take all 3 points at the Racecourse Course. Prolific Christian Benteke opened the scoring in the 30th minute but young strikers Moses and Saviet notched in the 2nd half for County. Saivet scored the winner, within a minute of replacing Moses, when he bundled over the line after a goalmouth scramble. Stockport remain undefeated and move to 9th in the table.

Title: Re: SM.com 2 Post by: scotty2hatty on August 07, 2008, 08:12:15 PM Stockport 2 Grimsby 1
Stockport County outplayed their opponents, Grimsby Town, to continue their unbeaten start to the season. Stockport enjoyed the majority of possession and made it count in the first half with a goal each from strike partnership Moses and Chiesa. Moses continued his fine start to the season by scoring in the 12th minute after a goalmouth scramble. Veteran Chiesa opened his account for the season when he beat the offside trap to beat Town keeper Alberto in the 35th minute. Thomas Linke grabbed a late consolation for Grimsby who drop to 8th in the table whereas Stockport move into the playoff spots. Title: Re: SM.com 2 Post by: jizzemm on August 07, 2008, 08:14:07 PM i got pwned again...

Fans of both sides went home reasonably happy after an entertaining clash at Edgeley Park where the sides shared 8 goals. Stockport got off to a horrendous start when Rotherham scored twice in the opening 4 minutes. Tonge opened the scoring in the 3rd minute and Scottish international David Weir nodded home the 2nd a minute later. That's how it stayed until half time and Stockport seemed to be on the road back when Krsticic pulled a goal back in the 49th minute but the joy was short lived as Rotherham went 4-1 up when Rodrigo Ruiz scored in both the 52nd and 56th minutes. Stockport showed excellent as they scored 3 times through Saivet, Chiesa and Latapy to win a point and remain undefeated. Title: Re: SM.com 2 Post by: mondatoo on August 10, 2008, 08:42:38 PM SHIP IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Title: Re: SM.com 2 Post by: booder on August 10, 2008, 10:30:18 PM 2 goals from Greek centre half Spiros Gogolos on his debut were enough to beat the fish heads from Grimsby,allowing Gillingham to open up a 2 point gap over Huddersfield at the top of the table.

Title: Re: SM.com 2 Post by: scotty2hatty on August 12, 2008, 08:34:50 PM Stockport 3 Colchester 3 - Stockport win 1-0 on pens
A young Stockport side were fortunate to progress to the 2nd round of the Cup after they beat Division 3 side Colchester on penalties. Colchester enjoyed the lion's share of the possession and had more than twice the number of shots but couldn't see off the plucky Stockport team. Georgian international Levan Kenia scored twice from a central midfield role and ex-Barca kid Pedrito also scored. Stockport have drew Division 1 side Wigan at home in the next round.

Title: Re: SM.com 2 Post by: Pelham Boy on September 05, 2008, 06:31:29 PM I have a injury and suspension crisis,so i thought i would venture into the transfer market. When i tried to bid for a player i kept getting the message 'you do not have funds to buy this player' which i thought was strange because the thing at the top of the screen was telling i have £1.3m in the bank,which has risen from £400k over the past two months. I assumed this was gate reciepts etc. However i failed to notice the - sign!! Yep i am £1.3m in the red!! and rising.

Still sitting 3rd though - need the top 2 to be slipping up more often.

Money spent already but all on players I think will go up in the upcoming Spanish updates. Pique has signed up from Barcelona and he's now my top earner but I sold a couple of older players who were getting paid a load but their average rating wasn't tremendous. If he doesn't rise in the ratings or performs poorly I can sell him off again for massive profit. Jozy Altidore joined from Villarreal and I'm fairly sure he'll rise quickly from his 83 rating. Same case as Pique with the selling him on. Couple of others joined too who are getting a regular game in La Liga but are only rating in the 70s.

Title: Re: SM.com 2 Post by: scotty2hatty on October 29, 2008, 01:59:01 PM abs shiiiiiip
José Manuel CHICO has had his rating increased to 83 Jozy ALTIDORE has had his rating increased to 85 Rodríguez PEDRO has had his rating increased to 78 Gerard PIQUE has had his rating increased to 88 Chico is up 9!!!! Think dino1980 bought him in other games too, wp. Title: Re: SM.com 2 Post by: scotty2hatty on October 29, 2008, 02:01:34 PM And now Pique is worth 13m after I bought him for 4m. And Chico cost me 400k but could prob get £5m for him. Similar with Altidore.
Title: Re: SM.com 2 Post by: TightEnd on October 30, 2008, 12:48:58 PM I have been struggling to make much progress with Chesterfield. Starting first XI had an average 74 rating, I had £2m to spend and 11,500 capacity means revenue rarely exceeds weekly costs
Thinking long term I went for youth and that is just beginning to pay off Michael Morrison was bought for £20k from Cambridge at 69 as in real life Leicester had just signed him and he was in the first team, and went to 75 and £500k Jack Rodwell was a 72, bought for £200k, promptly got games in the Everton 1st team and now is 78 worth £2m, and still only 17yo Jean Callejon a striker for Espanyol was 72 rated and today has gone up to 80, which puts him straight into the first team! My biggest purchase Ion Velez has gone from 78 to 83 too. No way can I compete with the Huddersfield's in the league but I am hopeful of a run to the play offs next season. Title: Re: SM.com 2 Post by: Colchester Kev on October 30, 2008, 01:26:41 PM Fabián LUCIANO MONZON has had his rating increased to Rating Increase 85 +3

Seems me and dino1980 have been buying the same guys but in different games - I suppose I should have snapped them up in all the games as they few million here and there adds up. Title: Re: SM.com 2 Post by: gatso on October 30, 2008, 02:05:49 PM ffs. niemi announced his retirement early in the season so 2 weeks ago I sold him and was lucky enough to get what I paid for him. canizares came in to replace him and all is good until this morning when he decides he's going to retire too so I need to find yet another 1st team keeper for next season
Title: Re: SM.com 2 Post by: dino1980 on October 30, 2008, 02:47:04 PM Sierra IVAN MARCANO has had his rating increased to 84 +7 Seems me and dino1980 have been buying the same guys but in different games - I suppose I should have snapped them up in all the games as they few million here and there adds up. Yeah, we've blatantly been reading the same threads! I had a few bids in for players in Spain and Portugal and before they were accepted their ratings got increased, cost me around £8 million I reckon. Have had some decent increases this week though and throughout the season, my player turnover has been ridiculous though, I think i've got one player left who started the game at Yeovil.

Yoyo back down to 3rd. surely the unmanaged gills aren't going to get second. looks like it could go to the wire would be a disaster if they do - i'm fairly confident of securing it though.

Got hammered 5-1 at home!
Title: Re: SM.com 2 Post by: gatso on November 17, 2008, 03:08:53 PM if anyone is who's pushing for promotion is interested in splashing the cash on short term loans huddersfield have addded 3 90+ rated players to the loan list. I'm only 1 point from promotion so am happy to shift out my highest wage earners for the last couple of weeks to save a few pennies.

Seeing as I have it's now pretty much open season till the end of the season on my players as far as loan signings are concerned. I imagine my chairmain won't let me loan out any of my 'star' players, but have loaned out Sam Vokes (rated 80). First come first served.

Beat Kev's Darlington side 2-0 away from home as two players I was set to leave on bench scored. Delighted - Gillingham lost to Horneris' Bradford so I'm now 3 points clear. Big blow that top striker Altidore is out for rest of season though.

GL all. Title: Re: SM.com 2 Post by: Graham C on December 11, 2008, 10:36:54 AM Following on from David James refusing to join the mighty Brentford, Pavel Nedved now decides he's too good for the club, but we did get a bit of a coup,
Serhiy REBROV has completed his move to Brentford from Rubin Kazan for £2,150,000 Perhaps if Pavel knew Serhiy was coming he'd have seen things different Title: Re: SM.com 2 Post by: gatso on December 11, 2008, 10:46:54 AM reckon you've had a lucky escape with nedved mate, £2.1m, wages are sky high, rating likely to go down and he's probs retiring this year. would've been a very expensive 1 season player
much better off with rebrov, looks like a great signing at this level Title: Re: SM.com 2 Post by: Graham C on December 11, 2008, 10:50:24 AM Yeah was just looking at ratings, between Rebrov, Solano and some other dude I've signed, I think I may bankrupt the club!
It's fair to say that I forgot about the wage bill Title: Re: SM.com 2 Post by: scotty2hatty on December 11, 2008, 05:42:55 PM At the tail end of last season I was losing c.£200k a week which wasn't nice - hopefully turn that round this season. Will be shipping out a few players for massive profit when their transfer ban expires and then hopefully rinse repeat.

Title: Re: SM.com 2 Post by: boldie on December 29, 2008, 08:23:46 AM lol..just looking at Rochdale with all the golden oldies looking for one last pay-day.
Just how close are they to going bust?...Surely Figo and Inzaghi both on44k a week is too much...especially combined with some other guys on 12k+? Title: Re: SM.com 2 Post by: Graham C on December 30, 2008, 01:17:25 PM Couple of new signings for me plus another is being negotiated at the moment. Fielding a weak side tonight for the shield (or whatever it is) and concentrating on the league, hopefully will be able to compete
Title: Re: SM.com 2 Post by: boldie on January 01, 2009, 09:36:56 PM Win against Northampton means I move up into 6th...Dan Gosling will be leaving the club soon and some new signings will be made shortly.
Had hoped to focus on the cup but have Wigan in the next round and that look a big ask...FML. Title: Re: SM.com 2 Post by: scotty2hatty on January 01, 2009, 10:00:01 PM Team look like they are getting used to the step up to division 3 - comfortable 3-1 win tonight moves Stockport into the playoff spots.

Title: Re: SM.com 2 Post by: gatso on January 03, 2009, 11:46:03 AM why was he shit in england? injuries or not physical enough? reckon he'll be any good if he does come back or one of the many who just can't make it in the epl?
I'm wondering if he'll do better for you ratingwise if he stays in holland Title: Re: SM.com 2 Post by: boldie on January 03, 2009, 11:49:08 AM why was he shit in england? injuries or not physical enough? reckon he'll be any good if he does come back or one of the many who just can't make it in the epl? I'm wondering if he'll do better for you ratingwise if he stays in holland yeah I hope he stays in Holland until the end of the season...don't want him moving to the UK right now..I reckon he's just one of many who can't make it here. If he were to go and join Spurs it won't be a good move for him as he'll be playing for Middlesborough or someone like that very soon afterwards...and then he'll drop to Championship level. Should still get a big ratings increase in soccermanager soon though as he's been very good while he was in Holland.

Title: Re: SM.com 2 Post by: boldie on January 03, 2009, 01:14:23 PM p.s. Can we not have people manage Chelski, Real/arsenal/Manu and those teams in this gameworld? It means that every single talent I want to buy from them is off the market all of a sudden and it's doing my head in....seriously doing my head in as I had targets with these clubs and now all of a sudden Managers have applied for those jobs and I can't buy any of their players.
I don't know if it's possible or not but if it is possible to keep these clubs free that'd be grand. edit...looks a weird post. Can we keep the clubs managerless and not have people apply to run those? is my question. Title: Re: SM.com 2 Post by: scotty2hatty on January 03, 2009, 02:59:55 PM Every second day or so I go through rejecting all the applications to manage all the top clubs.

I heard Sarpong was playing consistently.

I haven't watched Ajax play in a while...but his stats say he sisn't (ESPN website and all that)..he is an excellent prospect though...ah..just noticed why he hasn't played. According to one of the websites he just made his comeback in the youth team (must have been injured). The guy will do very well at Ajax though. Thanks for rejecting all them applications mate, didn't know if you were or not...the effort is greatly appreciated.

ah..it's probably because a manager has applied for the job again. How often does that happen Scotty?..Must be driving you nuts.

Title: Re: SM.com 2 Post by: Horneris on January 04, 2009, 06:38:49 PM The fans at Valley Parade are more than happy with the start to the season, seeing the club with an average rating of just 75, which is one of the lowest in the division, up in 7th in the league, just a point away from the playoffs.
This has been put down to the shrewd tactical ability of young manager Brent Horner who will be hopeful of another 3 points away at 19th place Bristol Rovers this evening playing their infamous 4-4-1-1 formation. Bradford are by far the richest team in the division, currently boasting a bankroll of £18.3m having not bought a single player for over a season and a half. We asked Horner to comment on this matter and he had this to say; "Last year it was all about building the balance whilst we stayed in the football league. This season i was tempted to invest in some players, but will not risk the financial future of this football club by making stupid purchases on players who are past it on absurd wages. Look at Rochdale, the manager is risking the future of his club by trying to re-invent people's careers, its an utterly mindless display from manager Richard Hare. There are people's careers at stake there, fans dreams". "This is not to say i won't look at getting a few players on board soon, but i will never leave myself with a bankroll of under £5m, never". Bradford's playmaker, captain, set piece taker, their everything, is 18 year old Aaron Ramsey.

Title: Re: SM.com 2 Post by: TightEnd on January 06, 2009, 10:29:55 AM How do you get so much money? I'm struggling to get a few mil together to buy some slightly average players! I manage Chesterfield with a 10,000 ground capacity and I struggle to break even with a wage bill of £180,000. No choice but to go for younguns and hopefully trade them on for profit and do it again. Leicester holds 32,000 so presumably it, in this game, generates a lot of cash every home game, which has built up when unmanaged. the new manager thus had £30m odd to spend Title: Re: SM.com 2 Post by: Graham C on January 06, 2009, 10:50:24 AM Ah yes. I'm in a similar boat, it's a struggle eh!
Title: Re: SM.com 2 Post by: dino1980 on January 06, 2009, 02:10:21 PM It's pretty hard trying to survive in Div 1 with Yeovil and an c.11,000 capactiy stadium. Buying players who are going to rise and then selling them on, then rinsing and repeating is the only way. No way I can afford to many players on £40k+
Title: Re: SM.com 2 Post by: Graham C on January 06, 2009, 03:28:45 PM With stadium size being a massive restriction in this game, is it possible to take a low league side all the way to the top and into Europe?

I think it's safe to say that my Cheltenham side,with a ground capacity of 7400,will not be appearing in Europe soon.

He might be on the way Title: Re: SM.com 2 Post by: gatso on January 06, 2009, 03:40:55 PM With stadium size being a massive restriction in this game, is it possible to take a low league side all the way to the top and into Europe? stadium sizes can be increased if you are successful and filling them each game Title: Re: SM.com 2 Post by: gatso on January 06, 2009, 03:43:48 PM info here

Title: Re: SM.com 2 Post by: dino1980 on January 06, 2009, 04:05:41 PM Yeah my stadium was increased by about 1500 before the start of this season.
Title: Re: SM.com 2 Post by: scotty2hatty on January 06, 2009, 07:14:12 PM Loving this game atm - buying and selling quite frequently and always looking for risers. It's good.
My ground was only 65% full in my last home game in Division 3, pretty poor. Title: Re: SM.com 2 Post by: boldie on January 06, 2009, 08:39:42 PM How do you get so much money?

Title: Re: SM.com 2 Post by: boldie on January 11, 2009, 09:39:51 PM Good away win against Crewe. We went 1-0 up but then squandered the lead and were 2-1 down at half time. A MOTM performance by our latest signing Steve Sidwell ensured the win though so we are now firmly in the play off places.
Tuesdays sees us play away to Wigan in the cup, a game we don't expect to win and therefore will be fielding a reserve side for. Title: Re: SM.com 2 Post by: ChipRich on January 11, 2009, 09:43:52 PM Boom, my team of pensioners scoop a 2-1 win over Orient.

Title: Re: SM.com 2 Post by: boldie on January 29, 2009, 09:23:09 PM WTMFF happened tonight against Rotherham? My team should easily have won this game..lost 5-1 at home...I didn't even have majority possesion with 5!!! superior midfielders against 4 lesser ones. FFS Rigged!

lets gogogogo. Title: Re: SM.com 2 Post by: Colchester Kev on February 06, 2009, 09:42:38 AM Luton & Leicester drawing 1-1 was a great result for Darlington, their 3-1 win over crewe keeps them on the pace for automatic promotion, and a 7 point buffer in the play off spots.

Yes, awesome result for us - Leicester are in Division 4 yet lined up with Hernan Crespo, Shawn Wright Philips and Ryan Giggs against us. Title: Re: SM.com 2 Post by: boldie on February 07, 2009, 10:04:05 PM Lincoln City have managed to sign Uruguayan 28 year old Sebastián EGUREN from Villarreal on a deal believed to be around £4,700,000
Delighted with this signing. rated 89, almost surely will go up soon and gives my midfield another boost. Now if only I could find a top notch striker....although El Hamdaoui should go up fairly drastically so he might do the trick. Title: Re: SM.com 2 Post by: boldie on February 08, 2009, 08:52:39 PM FML, FML x2..this is shocking. lost to sodding Grimsby.
Title: Re: SM.com 2 Post by: Colchester Kev on February 08, 2009, 09:02:55 PM Great win for Darlo at play off rivals Orient
With Luton only drawing Darlington's 3 points takes them into second place and an automatic promotion spot. Title: Re: SM.com 2 Post by: ChipRich on February 08, 2009, 09:31:30 PM Second team won 2-1 at home, scoooooooop.

Title: Re: SM.com 2 Post by: Graham C on March 23, 2009, 10:00:19 PM how do you get so much fkin dough to spend at this level ?

Title: Re: SM.com 2 Post by: boldie on March 24, 2009, 07:23:11 AM how do you get so much fkin dough to spend at this level ? I have a fairly strict buying and selling policy.

Bringing in another striker now...should be in time for tomorrow's game and that will be me done until the ratings in England....they should have a big impact, one way or the other, on my team.
Title: Re: SM.com 2 Post by: ChipRich on March 29, 2009, 12:22:07 AM Some decent signing for Rochdale in last few days:

I won't be selling any British players until the english ratings come out. Title: Re: SM.com 2 Post by: ChipRich on March 31, 2009, 10:36:23 PM norrrrrrrrrrrr, i lost to Liverpool in the final! 4-2, sighh.

This should be a big few weeks for Lincoln City...we have already made 1.5mill profit on day one by having 2 guys rise...main team hasn't even started yet :) Title: Re: SM.com 2 Post by: boldie on April 02, 2009, 08:50:34 PM yikes...lost 1-3 againt Bradford. Had possesion, more shots on goal...and was 1-0 up!..unfortunately Soldado got himself sent off and tht cost me the game.

Title: Re: SM.com 2 Post by: boldie on April 05, 2009, 08:43:43 PM sigh...don't know why I bother buying decently rated players, playing 5 in the middle against a team of 80 rated players with less in the middle of the pitch. I still lose possesion. OBV had more shots on target and obv lose the game. FML will have to work hard to get promotion now and should have been a near cert for it by now IMO

He'll love Yeovil i'm sure! He might get a +1 in the ratings, if not i'll probs sell him in a few months as he's worth about 6 mil more than i paid for him. Should have another 25-30mil to spend.

MBN...I still have to wait 4 weeks before I can list Pato..selling Keita in the mean time but offers are coming through a bit slow. I'm guessing you'll be buying up all the players I would like in the next month then? Title: Re: SM.com 2 Post by: pokerfan on May 31, 2009, 09:45:49 PM happier times over here 3-1 win
Title: Re: SM.com 2 Post by: boldie on May 31, 2009, 09:53:48 PM I was never gonna beat Crewe, especially as I hadn't set my team (would have gone 4-5-1 defensive but even then it would have been difficult)
Crewe should get autopromo this year IMO. Title: Re: SM.com 2 Post by: gatso on May 31, 2009, 10:12:00 PM iwwil to lose

And the score was.................... 0-5, NIL BLOODY FIVE!

Unfortunately Jamie is injured for the next week or so..but the team should be a bit better now :) Obv will still go out of the cup to Sunderland tonight..promotion is everything this season. Title: Re: SM.com 2 Post by: boldie on June 17, 2009, 07:39:19 AM Well, managed to beat Sunderland 3-0 with my second string..bit of a shocker but the tactis were spot on :)

Pato might leave us at the end of the month...though I haven't quite decided yet, it is likely. Still have 6mill in the bank after selling Bellamy and another player but haven't decided what to do with that yet.... Title: Re: SM.com 2 Post by: pokerfan on June 18, 2009, 09:34:33 PM win for us :)

Well, that's a big of a bugger. I am just going to PM all those managers then..see if they'll resign. :) Title: Re: SM.com 2 Post by: fatshaft on June 27, 2009, 07:17:28 PM Any joy with these new managers?

Title: Re: SM.com 2 Post by: fatshaft on June 27, 2009, 08:00:59 PM Scotty, might be an idea to PM these guys saying that the league won;t be renewed after this season if they don't drop out?
Title: Re: SM.com 2 Post by: fatshaft on June 28, 2009, 08:18:58 AM Quote García SERGIO RAMOS has completed his move to Liverpool from Real Madrid for £0 plus Martin SKRTEL and Álvaro ARBELOA . Well that's the first of the players on my watch list gone to one of these twats. It's a shame because it's a great idea to play the game from the bottom, but if we don't lose these managers by end of the season, I think it becomes pointless? Title: Re: SM.com 2 Post by: boldie on June 28, 2009, 11:04:19 AM yeah, I've seen one or two move already. not cool, but I'm not getting any reply from these managers to my PMs. I also think that we need someone to manage the game otherwise someone can just take over any managerial position as soon as someone else leaves, leaving us with the same problem.
Title: Re: SM.com 2 Post by: gatso on June 28, 2009, 08:46:56 PM getting boring now. 24 games unbeaten, 13 straight wins

As long as it's still up in the air come Tuesday I'll be happy.Title: Re: SM.com 2 Post by: ChipRich on September 04, 2009, 04:01:07 PM Chiprich has pissed the league i need to avoid defeat against 3rd place or win on final day to guarantee promotion. No signings this season so chuffed to be in this spot. weeee. Title: Re: SM.com 2 Post by: pokerfan on September 06, 2009, 08:59:45 PM ;yippee; ;sark; ;yippee;
Title: Re: SM.com 2 Post by: boldie on September 06, 2009, 09:04:05 PM ;yippee; ;sark; ;yippee; Very well done! 8-0 win for me...still just 1 point in it but should really beat Bournemouth as my first team is fit. Title: Re: SM.com 2 Post by: boldie on September 10, 2009, 10:07:13 PM beat Bournemouth 3-2 to clinch the title..tougher division next season and not sure whether I'll play yet.
Title: Re: SM.com 2 Post by: gatso on September 10, 2009, 10:27:24 PM huddersfield finish on 96 points, 32 clear of 2nd placed leeds. 126 goals scored which is more than the next 2 highest scorers combined. div 2 was kinda easy
the challenge of the top flight awaits next season Title: Re: SM.com 2 Post by: boldie on September 17, 2009, 02:23:11 PM I'm quitting my Licoln team..the chairman hasn't invested any money and all the good players are taken by the new guys that have taken the big teams...
If anyone wants any of my players, just put a bid in this week and they're yours. Title: Re: SM.com 2 Post by: fatshaft on September 17, 2009, 03:14:19 PM :'(
Don't blame ya like. Going to play my way out of Div 3, then I'll jack it in too. Becomes pointless after that. Best thing would be to start a new league again, Scottish 3rd maybe? Now that would be tough! Title: Re: SM.com 2 Post by: boldie on September 17, 2009, 03:29:56 PM :'( Don't blame ya like. Going to play my way out of Div 3, then I'll jack it in too.

Now that would be tough! yeah, happily join a new league like this...there's not much point in carrying on with this one though. I could keep my team and probably do OK but I can't improve as all the tasty players are gone. |
