Football Manager 2010

[Sack it off]

wtf, the game runs sooooo slow for me?

Yeah the 3D match is really jumpy for me too, will see how it runs on my PC when I get home

[ChipRich]

Heaven, me and Brent started a network game

Picked 6 teams out that got predicted 9th-14th, and picked them out of a hat for who we'd be.

I got Blackburn, he got Bolton, should be fun. Neither of us got any £ to start though.

Start of the season soon, cant wait for 1st game vs him.

[ChipRich]

com, ive started with 3 draws...2 away, 1 at Arsenal 1 at Burnley and a home draw to Wigan.

BH got 1 win and 2 losses.

Big game is in 10 games time [  ] gl BH.

[Ironside]

i got a little peed off with database being too small even with 17000 players
with 8 nations meaning if i got anyone outside of those nations they would get capped no matter how crap
eastwood had a cypriot full internationals and a portuguesse U21 (who was only 18)
so starting over added every player with a national rep in europe so got 89000 players in game
game speed has gone from 5 stars to 1 star

[ChipRich]

sickkkk. In our network game, 2 games to go and im safe in about 12th position (Blackburn) and Bh (Bolton) in 17th 1 point ahead of Pompey in 18th.

glgl. Hope he stays up because, if he goes down might get sacked & this will have been pointless!

[ChipRich]

He gets a home draw to Villa and Pompey fail to win their last 2 games, he stays up.

Bring on next season!

have you played any poker since you got the game?

lol yeah, it actually helps in a way.

Just 2-4 tabling continously at the side of Football Manager (running on windowed mode). Mainly concetrating on poker, but something to do when you dont have a good hand.

FTOPS Event #1 tonight, $216 6 max at 2am, and Bolton season 2, lets gogogogo.

[Ironside]

i am thinking of getting an extra monitor when i get my new pc so i can 4 talble stars and run a game at same time not sure if this is possible but would like to think it is

[pleno1]

I'm Spurs, Christmas in first season and I'm third, I sold Modric and Huddlestone for 28m combined and had 7 m at the start but board only allowing me 17m to spend WTF, tight jews imoooooo

Palacios is an absolute beast and Lennon does so much damage, need a good left winger, any recomendations? Good cm too, although Niko Kranjcar is absolutely sick.

[ChipRich]

GG Brent.

After struggling to stay up last season and not a great start this sitting in 20th, theyv'e finally done it. gg Horner.

I played him 2 games earlier and he was on the verge of the sack, but he got a battling 2-2 draw away at Ewood Park then he lost the next away at Arsenal which sealed it.
Would have been incred to beat him in the game that made him get gg'd but nvm.

He can now be seen down the job centre looking for any jobs around.

He has just been offered the only job going, MKDONS, but will sensationally turn them down as he absolutely hates them as they stole the dream that IS, Wimbledon.


Meanwhile my Blackburn team got off to a brilliant start, as high as 4th, but hav now gone 5 games without a win and only 1 point in those games. Hopefully doesnt continue

[ChipRich]

Hes just taken over at Brisbane Road (Orient).

Tells me he has to go down to the lower leagues as he hasn't got what it takes at the moment to cut it with the big boys, but will see me back in the Premiership in a few years.

but tbh, if my current run continues ill be seeing him in the lower leagues also.

gl us.

[Horneris]

as he hasn't got what it takes at the moment to cut it with the big boys

meh, nice rub.

No one ever be Bolton. They have terrible terrible players, and all are rated by the scouts as Championship level players except Gary Cahill.

They also had a £0 transfer budget. I did do terribly though to get the sack and i am extremly embarrassed.

Rater than quit the game though and start again as Rich suggested, i want to prove to the world that i have got what it takes to be a successful football manager, and i wish to do this by taking the job at Leyton Orient and masterminding the first period in their history of top flight football.

Its not going to be easy, i've just taken the job and we currently lie 21st in league One, my first priority is to keep them in the League One and i have 5 months to do so.

[scotty2hatty]

Keep the updates coming please.

I'm still in my first season with Dundee. Top of the league though. Antoine Sibierski and Leigh Griffiths are dynamite together.
