    It's done on a draft system aswell kinda...

    I've a question. I'm supposed to win the Euro Cup.
    If I win the Russian Cup along the way to that chalk off that as a trophy?
    Also say I don't qualify for the Euro Cup but the Champions Cup, what happens then?
    (not likely to happen but just incase....)

    Yeah count anything you win along the way, as long as it hasn't already been won, or someone elses sole aim isn't to win it.

    As for if you go beyond the goal you're supposed to achieve without winning it, then its probably just better to post a printscreen and get a new challenge.

    Its a bad time of year in fairness.
    Exams, Long evenings, people doing other (possibly outdoor) stuff, summer holidays, summer work etc etc.
    This is something that would take off in October/november/December time.

    Will give the challenge a go myself no matter how many here take it up.

    I'll give this a go...only thing is I don't have the actual game ;) so I have none of the updates and my final exam is on Monday, so I can't guarntee any game time until Tuesday.

    If that's OK, then count me in. If not, then no problem!

    Right, just setting up my league now and then I have to study. Last season, my team finished 8th 42 points behind the winners. I'm sure I can improve on that. By how much? Who knows!

    How's everybody else getting on? Finished my exams on Monday and just finished my first season today. It came down to the last game of the season, where I was level on points with Dinamo who had already beaten me twice in the league and I had to play them on the last day...I lost. Oh well, I'm surprised I did so well in my first season to be honest. Here's some screenshots.

    I had to go through like 6 months of preseason including a League Cup that I didn't get out of the group stages of, but I've played my first 3 games with IBV in the Icelandic First Division. 7 points from 9. Could well be in for promotion. Its a small league with only like 22 games to play so I should be finished my first season by the end of the weekend and will post up screenshots then.

    For the guy who said he was getting FM09 today, you got Brno, to win the Czech Premier (Gambrinus Liga)
