Ah yes, Nik Besagno, got a good PA so always worth signing when he becomes available for any club.
OK, so enough buggering around with this game. Who is up for the TEF FM2006 challenge? Something like getting Swindon into the Champions League by 2010. Some may have already done it, but its worth a shot. I need to think about some rules, and I'm away on business for a couple of weeks, so be looking to start early March. Anybody got any suggestions for a challenge involving Town? Anyone up for it?

Elrik Markegarde(ST) would be my recommendation. He's currently worth £750,000 after i signed him for £22,000 1& 1/2 years ago.
Sheffield Wednesday are currently sniffing around him. :?

Jamie O'Hara from Spurs is also a good choice. Free after 1 season, scores plenty of screamers, and free-kicks. Sold him after 1 season for £750k to the Toon Army.

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v494/Piemonte/4th.jpgI've no way of proving I didnt cheat - but I didnt, there wouldnt be much point really. It wasnt easy though, and took me 2 seasons each time to win league 1 and the championship. Had a good late run (13 unbeaten, something like that) which got me into 4th on GD

why thank you gents. *Takes a bow*
Tips?
when a few seasons in and players are starting to regenerate, wait til after xmas and do a search of players, max age 17 and sort by average rating. they'll be a lot of shit on there but you should be able to find the odd 16 yr old gem who can be signed for £200-£500k
tactically I play 4-4-2 with one centre mid set up defensivly and the other one slightly more creative (but forward runs mixed) wingers set to attacking etc. To be honest I think my sucess was more based on player recruitment than tactical genius.
I found that my team did really well in the prem (unexpectedly) due to my entire team having good team work, work rate and reasonable quality. set them to a high tempo game with pressing and a lot of prem teams couldnt handle it.
outside of the prem, have a good long look at scandinavian players, I signed 3 or 4 (all u21's) for a total of £300k ish, all were good.
Its long winded, but checking out the u21 squads of all european nations can be good. there are often some cheapish players who will join us, even in league 1.
right at the start of the game, offer other clubs £0 for transfer listed players. they are often desperate to get the fuckers off thier wage bill so will just let them go for nowt

Yeah, I started pissing about with individual positions last night, and won three on the bounch (scoring 11 goals). So perhaps I am now on the right lines.....I am still only in October in my game and are 9th, so I must try and make the play offs! Thanks for the tips. |
