Football manager 2008

[Willlow]

Who is the new chairman?

Im not too sure, Paul somebody, will let you know later, if you can wait that long? :icon_wink:icon_lol::icon_lol:

 

[Willlow]

Finished the season in 8th position, put together a good run towards the end of the season that convinced me to have one more go at trying to reach the Prem.

In pre season having cleared out a lot of the deadwood and quietly confident we can push for automatic promotion. Mandaric has retired, with the new chairman giving me £10m for transfers, unfortunately nobody wants to come to me. :icon_sad:

My game won't load keeps saying that it wasnt saved correctly, fcuking shite game!

 

[Richie_d123]

New career with city, had a terrible first season. Just playing my final game of the season against Stoke to determine which of us finsihes 14th. Milan is over the moon with our championship performance even though i promised in promotion at the start. Ah well better luck next year.

 

[p d s]

I have just let my game play a season with City in League One,Ian Holloway still in charge, with the theory that Leeds will be promoted to the Championship so won't be in it, also I had Rochdale in there as I believe they'll progress from League Two. I'd like to point out that this was purely out of interest and not because I believe Football Manager can predict the future.:icon_bigg

They must have sold tickets for a quid each and had no away segregation to get that! Only 6 spare seats in the whole stadium!

They were all next to you.

They were all next to you.

There were six empty seats next to me for the 'sold out' Sheff Weds match.

 

[FIF]

I'll take that

Ever heard of antiperspirant?

 

[Jeff]

Ever heard of antiperspirant?

But how did they know I was going to be there?


It was the first time I'd sat in my proper seat since the Watford game.

We played Watford? Can't remember that one. Bet we lost.

 

[mowbray-fox]

im in my second season with leicester, i'm 14th at xmas after fininshing 16th last season. sold kisnorbo to empoli. hume got 27 goals last season and decided in the summer he wants to 'move to a bigger club' and has been crap all season. fryatt top scorer with 16.

 

[Hazzman]

Doing a load of shit as Hartlepool manager. Very average. Got offered the QPR job but they were shite.

 

[mowbray-fox]

i hate MM in both real life and on pc now. i got sacked from the leicester job after losing 4 in a row, which left me 16th after i promised a top half finish and we're only in january.

by the way i've since been offered the lucrative role of Ebbsfleet United manager. no funds, nearly no players. brilliant, cheers milan u bellend.
top of the league though. up the 'fleet!

 

[Hazzman]

I applied for the Arsenal and got it. It helps having your experience set as 'former international superstar'. Absolutely pissing the league. £150 million to spend

I always thought that was cheating?

There's an option on the 'advanced' when making a new manager. You can choose your profile to as you want - it relates to the person past playing career. So I wouldn't call it cheating, it makes it a whole load easier.

I do use it when I start off unemployed otherwise you can't even get a job in the Spanish 4th division on automatic setting! :icon_conf
