    ... is frickin' awesome!

    Having my first match at the moment and who knew reading match reports could be so exciting! Looks like I've definite areas to work on, but a 21-0 lead at half time has put me in a good mood.

    Um, just a question though... do us manager types just sit and watch the matches or are we meant to be suggesting changes and tactical schtuff? I can't see an obvious button for it so I'm assuming not, but if that's the case than it's similar to playing against I bot or?

    Well... you pick your team and subs should they be required and where / who comes off the bench. But that's only for injuries. The tactics have to be set by half an hour before kick off or so, and as far as I know, you can't influence the game there after.

    It's not like playing against a bot, I mean, most teams are real human teams, watching just like you and have prepaired just like you, then the game takes place. In the lower leagues you can get one or two bot teams, but once you get up to division III onwards they're all human afaik. Last season in IV I had 2 bot teams in my league iirc.

    Great game though, enjoy! :)

    Happened to pop on and I'm 36 - 0 up with 55 mins gone, so happy enough.

    Fulltime and 38-0 ... excellent. Jaffa cakes all round!

    Ah, just the way people go on about bot matches made me thing that the bot team was somehow inferior to the human team, possibly cause a human could mix up tactics etc mid-game.

    No, I think it's just BOT teams don't make signings and their team selection is just a default one, so you pretty much start on a par with them and any imporvements you make then make you better.

    I came out 57 - 0 winners in the end, so happy enough. Good warmup for the real deal at the weekend!
