can people continue to carry on from the ofiical site and post there stories of football manager? cheers
Don't see why not, so long as its in this section, thats what its all about, we have been doing it since day one anyway.
Anyone who saw my post on the official board may have seen a desperate plea for help regarding my FM hero Mokoena, - he wouldn't go to my Belgium feeder club – signed him couldn’t play him. Simple sollution, in desperation I offered him a new contract and he got the work permit! Got a good young team forming: Gk Lastuvka LB Gareth Bale RB Nedum Onuoha CB Dan Shittu CB Clark Carlisle DM Al Banguara AM Lebohang Mokoena LM Freddy Adu RM Ashley Young CF Marlon King CF Eddie Johnson Subs GK Richard Lee D/DM Didier Digard S Lasse Qvist AM Benedict Vilakazi CM Damian Francis LM Tommy Smith LB Jordon Stewart RB Lloyd Doyley I’ve only just started the friendly matches for 2nd season (In the Prem!), so have made quite a few changes in a short space of time (guess that’s why my loyalty has dropped to 9!)
lol that team is VERY similar to mine as i too signed the czech keeper Jan Lastuvka, Lebohang Mokoena and Freddy Adu lol, great minds think alike Al bangura is very good on my game , a star in the making
i signed eddie johnson for watford and he only got me 4 goals in my unfortunate relegation season, i got helguson back on loan and he got me 10, king got me only a poor 5 along with bouazza. young was out for the majority with a broken leg and only bagged 2. in desperation i signed joao pinto who has played 4 and scored 2. nethertheless i will bounce back up( i hope ). another point i signed eddie johnson for pompy and he got me 16 goals in that season.
I reckon Woody will plummet down to league two (might have been one, but i'm pretty sure it was 2) just like he did on fm06 ;D
ouchy i am premier league, say i am premier league. Chris Sutton top scorer so far with 8. King with 3, Young with 3, Mokoena with 5, Adu with 1, Shittu with 1. Im 2 places above relegation zone; but quite a few points ahead of sheffiel united, aston villa and fulham who are in relegation zone.
£3 Million, which isn't too bad. Stayed up and got £7 Million for my 2nd season, still have £1.6 mil for Jan in case things go wrong. First 3 Games drew 3.3 with Spurs 2.2 With Liverpool 2.2 With Southampton Think i might need to sort the defence...
i signed brian mcbride for 15ok straight away, hes had 3 injuries in as amny months but looked good when he played
Just started my 4th season as Watford (who needs lectures when you have fm?) and after 3 seasons of relegation battles my decison to turn to youth backfired and relegation was a certainty before i reached the january transfer window and invested heavily, too little to late unfortunately, a 4-0 defeat away to Man Utd on the final day left me 3 points adrift of the 17th place. Started the season well in the Championship, top after 9 games, winning them all. Heres my team. GK: Ben Foster RB: Sergey Ignashevic LB: Jelle Van Damme CB: Karim Heggui CB: Micheal Schmoller RW: Bret Emerton LW: Ashley Young CM: Kristoffer Haestad CM: Lucas/Al Bang Bang CF: Cesar Delgado CF: Carlos Javier Acuna
Last about to start my 3rd season in the Prem…though the times they are a changing. No longer are the fans or board happy with fighting relegation - Graham Simpson now expects me to be mid-table! Unfortunately due to various players refusing to leave/not being wanted my wage bill was high so I ended up making a 3 mil loss! As a result the board have only given me 4 mil to get mid-table…I finished 12th last season, but I don’t think I will achieve that again, shouldn't get relegated though.
A very long time! It's extremely time consuming and sucks you in. Can easily distract me from my studies for hours at a time.
UEA speaks the truth, I can single handedly blame my dropping out of my law degree on the release of FM 06. My attendance of lectures dropped considerably after the release. We can only pray i find the time for my History lectures next year or it'll be another year of uni for me!
it depends on how into it you get, you probably could do a season in about 10 hours if you didnt goinnto detail. by the looks of your post count, time is something you have lots of anyway.
i lost one of my girlfriends to fm06 and i must admit i cannot pull myself away from fm07 but i must not be any good as i can never kepp watford in the premier league. i always sign decent players but for some reson they never perform for watford i have found owen garvan from ipswich is a gem also vincent enyema and didier digard.
just started 3rd season as watford and frankly this game scares me sum times firsst season signed ellington and tht was it qualified for europe second season heavily strengthaned squad and finished 17th hopefully this year shall be a repeat of the first
in the championship currently and im doing alright, at the moment im in mid table after 19 games, bouazza and eddie johnson upfront - extreme pace, so i play long ball for them to run onto.
I got St.Albans City promoted to the Conference and won the F.A Trophy in the same season the other day. I was pleased with that achievement.
Im 10th after 16 games in my first season. I got Hossam Ghali and Serwyn Gancarkyk (sp!!) whos a LM. Top score is Ashley Young with 8. And then Aliadiere with 7 who i loaned in.
