    I tried that when I took the job just in case but it was the lowest option it would give me. Doesnt let me select anything lower.

    I'd have guessed getting sacked myself. Should have thought about this before putting so much effort in to planning for next season :(

    Before I bought this game heard it was "too easy", but I think it is much harder than last years and previous games! Was managing Liverpool, got to march and I was 5th in the league, 4th was still very much a possibility, but got sacked with about 8 games to go:confused:

    Started a new game the next day then, again with Liverpool, fairing better this time around but still find it difficult. Transfer fees seem to be way up, was looking for a decent forward prior to my second season but couldn't get one at a reasonable price (ended up getting Babacar for €13m), and selling players is extremely difficult, cannot get rid of Joe Cole (realistic I guess!). Game is great though, really notice contract negotiations and interacting with players have improved, and little details are a lot easier to find, nice touches to the game.

    Im top of the league with luverpool in about february. In league cup final. Pools defence very good and easy set up. Spent no money on first team players.

    Main issue I see with pool is the high number of average players on high wages that will need to be cleared.out.

    Oh I know where the fake files are and what to do but in that particular save, the files were reloaded as part of verifying the game cache.

    Tis annoying to make a new game and then realise just a couple of hours of playing that some setting isnt right and it sucks the enjoyment right out of it

    Agh!! Just realised the same thing happened to me!!

    Paul Dunphy is class in the 1st Division, 18 goals in 20 games for me.

    Sweeney (Shane I think) animal of a centre back.

    You can get Gareth Williams as well but he'll cost you a bit in wages.

    Dave O'Connor is a handy left midfielder and Cooke is a good central midfielder.

    Never had this happen before. Three OG's in 1 game!

    ogresult.png

    I'm doing well. I am finding it easier than last year. I finished 3rd in my first season making 2 signings in January. Darron Gibson for €1.2m and Ola Toivonen for €6m.

    Lost two starters and 5 squad members in the summer so brought in Mohammed Abu, Heinz Müller and Mark Van Bommel on frees. Hamit Altintop for €3.7m, Niko Kranjcar for €3m and Simone Pepe for €1.8m. Currently top, 2 ahead of Bayer and 7 ahead of Bayern at Christmas. Pepe is a bit of a lunatic, 8 yellows and 2 reds in 15 games. Got drawn in to a tough group with Barca and PSG(feckin 3rd seeds they were!). Only finished 3rd so I go into the Europa League I think.

    I noticed on my Japanese league DB there is a 5th division team named Black Pecker :pac:. If I win the league this year I'll resign and go manage them for the craic.

    Did you extract the file you downloaded? It's a .rar so you need to extract it with WinRAR.

    Extract the kits.rar file to the structure you listed above and you should get a bunch of folders named by league that has all the kits in them. Then it should work(after you go into preferences, go to Display and Sound, untick ''Use skin cache'' and tick ''Always reload skin on confirm then press confirm).

    I am sick and tired of the totally unrealistic serious injuries in every game.
    Usually 4 mins to 15 mins in!
    I've played 5 games and had 2 x 3 month layoffs and a two 3-4 week ones.
    I mean come on - do they not test these games at all?
    Totally spoiling the enjoyment and making me thinking of going back to Fm2011

    Another moan is changing player prices with patches.
    Moussa Sissoko started of as 10 million, now he is 22 million in 12.0.4??!!

    In my third season with Dortmund. Damiao is on fire this year. I'm only in the middle of October and he has 21 goals in 14 appearances.

    Absolute beast!

    Dortmund eh?
    Then you have the next Messi - Gotze?
    Trying to buy him for 60 million, wont sell, "should be considered a definate purhase"

    Bought Damiao for Chelsea, but not giving him enough starts, now he has broken his leg and out for 3 months!

    Wouldn't sell him for any money. He's immense, if there was some sort of point for assist to an assist he'd be ridiculous. But as it is he tears up the left wing. I have Christian Eriksen in the AMC and then Hamsik pulling strings behind them.

    This is the year I conquer Europe I think, everything is falling in to place!

    EDIT: Damiao just hit a hattrick against Gladbach. Instant legend!

    Just found another bug I think.
    Even though I handle contract renewals,
    I get advice not to renew a player as they are not good enough and then the next update is "Its a proud day, watched by his family and manager as little Johnny signs his first professional contract" WTF????????????

    Are you handling u19 contract renewals? Was that particular contract provisionally signed before you made changes to how u19 contracts are handled?
