Football Manager 2011

[Bogus Dave]

I can never do more than one saved game at a time. Too confusing

[Sippo]

My Addictiveness rating is 'Sleeping for Sissies'.

My game has just started telling me that my subs are outside of the match squad, so i think i am going to have to leave it for a few hours. I have stopped looking at my addictiveness rating as it depresses me.

[Barry Scott]

My Addictiveness rating didn't look like it would ever change again and then it changed from, "What are humans!" (which annoys the pedant in me) to "You only go on holiday so you can read this message."

I'm on a 152 match unbeaten run at the moment, Chelsea got relegated last season and Carlisle, Grimsby and Doncaster were in the Prem. I had 1 draw, no losses and £1.1B to play with.

Barry does it not get a little boring after going that long with out losing? I usualy get fed up in season 3/4. I have stopped playing FM as it effects my social life to much, its not healthy. My house mate gets home from work starts up his p.c and we dont see him for the rest of the night.   

[Barry Scott]

It does. That's why I can go months and months without playing it, I occasionally get a craving and play it for a month or so then stop again.

I'd enjoy it more if I didn't have to play games though. I enjoy finding the best players and making money. I get off on finding "world-class" players when they're still 15/16/17 and getting them for some compensation then selling them for a loads.

My biggest deal was for my Messi like D/WB/MR (Diaz) who was absolutely unbelievable. He was worth £28.5m as a 20 yr old wonderkid. I sold him at 22 for £91.2m and he only cost £140k compensation from Chilean 2nd division side, Temuco. I had to sell him though as the other right back (Juarez) I had wasn't constantly jaded (I had to send Diaz on 4+ 2 week holidays a season and it fucked me off) and I couldn't carry them both with other youngsters coming through.

I attached some shots to make my e-cock feel bigger, as well as 2 games from the Champions League. The Roma game resulted in a new keyboard being bought. (For obvious reasons.) And I think the Milan game was the one leading up to it.

I played a season as Toronto FC in MLS. Did alright actually. Won the MLS Cup (finished third in the league but won the league via the playoffs) Got given a new contract to 2015 after my first season and winning the league. Won manager of the season, Was sitting second in the league in my second season and got sacked??? Seems very bizarre. Apparently it was top or nothing which was odd. Was offered several championship jobs but turned them down to stay in MLS.

Now managing New York Red Bulls in MLS. Took over from Hans Backe and they were 5th now I have them up to 3rd. MLS transfers are very odd, and you have to do drafts and can release players easily enough on a free though by waving them. They have a salary cap which makes signing players difficult. You can have 3 designated players (highly paid players). Managing in the MLS is all about signing players from lower leagues and developing them. Am favourite to manage LA Galaxy now. Understand MLS a lot more now and how it works. Very difficult to hang on to some players. You can swap players with other teams (Trade) or give away draft picks. Have just signed Nick Garcia and Dwayne De Rosario from Toronto FC and am planning on signing a couple more I took there.

Swindon are in the Championship so will apply for that job if it becomes available.

I'm currently managing Sunderland.

First season I finished 7th and won the F.A. Cup which got me the manager of the year award.

Second season I finished 8th and I've only just started the third season but with a nice 5-1 win at Chelsea.

[Arch Stanton]

After all the recent manager doom and gloom, how about a nice uplifting story of an ex-swindon manager finally finding work again, although its quite a strange appointment. But with a towering win percentage of 28 I'm amazed he's been out of work for so long. (Its 2014 in the game)

[Chubbs]

Dossevi scores a shedload from the right wing for me. Austin can't score for toffee though.

That's what I love most. A good way to find promising talent is keep an eye on all the youngest (U20 I think) south american international teams as well as Italy, Spain, Holland and any other good ones. And whenever you see a 16 year old appear sign them up straight away.

Dunno how it works in 2011, but if a player won't sign as a youngster, try and make them a key player (offer them a new contract once signed, as youngster, and they take it) or add notes set for their 17th birthday. The day they turn 17 they'll sign for anyone so offer them at least double what they ask for and you should steal them away without issue for compo.
