Does anybody else play this in a Malpas-esque scots accent?

I do, in my mind of course.  e.g. I like to play wee McNamee oot wide on the lift, with Chris Jeems playing doon the centre.

Does that make me a bit weird?

Started a game as QPR a little while ago.

1st season- promoted as champions into Prem.
2nd season- tipped for relagations, i said mid-table finish ended up 12th
3rd season- again tipped for relagations, i said fuck you and told the board a top half finish and finished 8th.
4ths season- for the 3rd time tipped for relagations, but i said i'd get into europe. 10 games in i was sitting top with only 1 loss, ended up finishing 5th and got into europe. Go me.

I got a nice looking team aswell.

GK- Kasper Schmeichel
DL- Benoit assou ekotto
DC- Younes Kaboul
DC- Ryan Donk
DR- Antony Vanden Borre
ML- Sebastian Leto
MR- Valeri Bojinov
MC- Bernardo
AMC- Cedrik Conan
AMC- Dawid Jancxyk
ST- Bogdan Stancu

Money comes flying in with QPR


What formation you using chubbs? I got promoted in my 1st season and am now struggling a bit in my third having only just avoided relegation from the prem in the 2nd. Currently 3 points adrift at the bottom of the table. Team is:

GK: Schmeichel
DR: Dario Srna
DC: Kirk Broadfoot
DC: Michael Dawson
DL: Benoit Assout-ekotto
ML: Charlie Adam
MC: Shunsuke Nakamura
MC: Bernardo
MR: Julien Faubert
ST: Benny McCarthy
ST: Klass Jan-Huntelaar  :shock:


i use a 4 3 2 1 or sometimes 4 3 1 2

Its a very attacking formation.

I find that with the new patch I cant get any formation to deliver the goods apart from 4-1-3-2 with no wide me....ala Ramseys England of 1966.

Desperatly searching for Nobby Stiles and Geoff Hurst as we speak!

I'm currently in my 3rd season with Reading and going well in 4th position at the moment.

I won the League Cup last season knocking Man Utd's 1st team out in the 3rd round.

I think the game is slightly biased towards Leeds... having two men sent off and then another injured when you've used all your subs :|

I can't seem to find any formation that is any good for Pompey. So frustrating. I also missed 7 penalties in a row so I resigned in frustration!

Thats a case in point. Theres so many instances of bad luck or just plain idiocy in the game that it just gets unplayable after a while. I'll still play it, but i get sooo frustrated at it its not good.

I know what you mean about resigning in frustration  Cheesy  We've all been there

My defence let me down and i finished with the 5th worst defensive record in the league.
