Found my first bug. Under my players pics there's no information so Ican't see which is there strongest foot, estimated value et al.

Good old SI.

Are you looking at the newly implemented profile screen or the old attributes screen? You can still check a players preferred foot via positions screen

That's good compared to last years disaster!
Hope it isn't a case of a patch fixing problems, but causing more problems in return.

Gonna hold out til xmas to get this when I actually have time to play it

Currently trying to sign better coaches and I came across John Versleeuwen. He's a very good youth coach but I'm going to sign him as a coach, does anyone know if this would be a waste of his talent because coaches never want to go back to being youth coaches.

Is there any definitive guide on what is important in a youth coach so that youth players realise their potential and you get good crops of players in your youth intake?

Anyone got a link to extended leagues for England like the Northern Counties League etc? I fancy doing a season with the newly formed Chester City!

A player comes to me with concerns over something, says it doesnt have to leave this office yet I get asked about it in the next press conference. Thats some pretty lazy coding right there!

Mars Bar

Steam up dated the demo. I loaded my last game and continue on and it makes me watch the Chelsea v Sunderland game. I dunno wanna watch this!

mikemac

Started in Blue Sq Premier with Cambridge United and dragged these minnows up to mid table in the Champioship

We halved the debt, we got a brand new stadium and great new facilites,
Finance gone from insecure to secure. Club transformed

Seven years loyal service I gave
Applied for Sheffield Wednesday job and the board and fans blasted me and told me to either resign or apologize

Shower of ungratful ***** :mad::mad::mad:

Then I left and all my coaches and scouts left with me, love the loyalty

Mars Bar

Half time!

Someone at the club leaked the conversation, maybe the player or his agent...

People lie in real life and I'm sure it happens in the game

Another Mistake by De Gea. Sell him not worth 17m

Anyone able to reccomend a good tactic for my Chester team? Too say we're inconsistent is a understatement.:pac: Take a look at the attachments below. We should be winning games for fun instead of been adrift of the leaders in February :eek:

Mars Bar

I used 41212 through 2010 and for my Watford Demo in 2012.

I had to go with overload so I would outscore the opposition. Attacking just wasn't enough. I always have my full backs set as wing backs and automatic.

Dirk Kuyt just announced his CLUB retirement half way through first season. Wtf??? :O

There seems to be a lot of complaints on forums about the game being too easy. Anyone seeing this here?

Brian017

Are City as bad in everyone elses game as mine. They're 11th after 14 games in mine, and having to wait 7 games for their 1st win. Despite their league form, remarkably, theyre job of their CL group with 1 game to go; which consists of Real, Napoli and Lyon.

A lot of those people complaining are people who set their past experience to the highest and just general trolls...

I finished my first season in the BSN and finished 5, it was pretty much were i was expecting to be at the end of the season, when i started

City are absolutely destroying my game. Me and my friend play LAN. I'm Villa and he is Sunderland and City only got fourth in the first year but nearly went undefeated in the second year, sweeping everyone away in the leage and getting to the final of the league cup.

started off in the evo stick premier division with Chester (2 divisions below the Football League ) and won promotion via the playoffs in my first season. Pablo Couango and Paul Dunphy ( Ex Bray Striker ) were lethal for me. I'm half way through my second season now with them and we're top of the league. TBH I don't think theres much a difference in the lower leagues.

Pablo Couango is a great player for that level, was he there at the start of the game or did you sign him?

At that level, a goal scorer will win you promotion...what kind of money do you have to spend on wages? Also what's your average attendance?

My wage budget at the start of the first season was 5000 but I released a few players and its now down to 2900 half way through my second season. Couango is only on 700 a week and his goal scoring record is brilliant. We average around 2500 a game for the playoff final we got around 5000 which was brilliant. One of the main reasons why I picked Chester was because I enjoyed a season I done with them in FM 2010 where they were -30 points in the BSP due to financial difficulties.

Wow your wage budget is double mine and your average attendance is roughly 8 times my average...

Wouldn't mind that kind of money at my club:)

mikemac

Yep, Pablo Couango is quality, had him for three years in Blue Sq Premier and then in Division Two with Cambridge Utd.
He retired before he gets to thirty four as I remember

He turns into an excellent coach too, attacking attribute goes up to twenty after a few years

sign paul dunphy from dublin bus as well as paul smith (former dundalk and monaghan winger) and paul terry(John Terrys bro) 3 very good players for non league level

Any sign on mega packs for kits, club icons, competition names and player faces yet?

Sgt Pepper 64

Played for one whole month
Already had 2 long injurys from reserve matches for fitness
1 x 7 month and a 6 month one!
Like the squad comparison, like the better graphics
Unless you scout with your assitant, you wont know how much a club wants for a player.
Your assistant will think a player is fairly good, but your specialist coach will think they are quality - who to believe???!!!

All the old wonder kids and players are out of reach
Ganzo, Aquergo, Hazard, Navas, Pjanic, Neymar are all 55 milliion!
Even Srna at 29 is 18 milliion (Still bought him - hes quality at 33 even

Still impossible to find decent left and right backs to replace Cole, Srna etc

3d view still switches out the players leaving you looking at a green field with just a text update!

Sortitoutsi have updated their mega pack here. You can actually just copy the graphics folder from last year's edition and that will also do the job.

Mitch Connor

75% possession, 30 shots, fcuk all goals.

Football Manager as infuriating as ever.

Mars Bar

Still no delivery from CD Wow. :mad:

Tomorrow is their 10 days to get it to me. If I don't have it tomorrow, there will be some angry worded emails.
