Might give fm2006 another go later. Don't mind getting a few hints for good signings but just using other peoples tactics and training schedules seems like it must take the fun out of it a bit. Surely it's makes it a bit like just sitting through someone elses game of fm. That said my genius attacking 5-3-2 formation which used to work so well for me in the oldskool cm4 doesn't seem to be doing the job this time. But experimentation is all part of the game. Agreed, but it depends on how much time you can afford to spend developing and testing tactics and training schedules - both are very time consuming. That said, very satisfying if you develop a tactic that succeeds. I managed to create an excellent 4231 tactic for FM2005 that just sucks in FM2006, played around a bit and got pissed off with it all. I don't like signing all the players everyone else recommends as that does take away some of the realism in the game. You don't get much option with Town though, given you start with a 7k transfer budget and no flex in the wage structure. I just get my scouts out and about looking for talented youngsters all over the world (Scandanavia is a good bet for cheap players who don't need work permits). |

Teemu Turunen (AMLC right footed trainable across midfield) Jonas Johansen (DM/AMC Either foot) John Peter Kleppen (Either foot, starts as AMLC but can be trained for anywhere in midfield, incl DM and as a striker as well. Well worth taking a butchers at)  Joakim Ssempassa (Young AMC/DM can be trained as a striker) Michael Svennson (DC/SW but hit and miss as to whether he'll sign for you) scout Scandinavia from the start and you'll pick all these blokes for nothing which a godsend for anyone playing with Swindon. |

scandinavia has been an ace shout on fm/cm for years. I remember alwsays signing Yassir Bassir on some old ones. The was still scoring 15+ a season from an attacking midfield role when I got Rushden into the premiership. Apart from the key attacking ones his stats were shit but he could do the bussiness.

I've just started a network game, and been lumbered with a team who can't compete with the financial clout of Chelsea. With only £5m to spend, can anyone recommend some bargains who will wreck it up in the Prem for me.
Much appreciated.
Blackcurrant. Nik Besagno. Fucking quality, and I got him on a free from Salt Lake City. DC/DM. |

Well i quit as boss of Sindon and took the vacant position as Bolton boss, we started off just 1 point ahead of Swindon. Ive played 4 games as Bolton Boss, winning 3 and losing 1 away. Look at this penalty madness http://i19.photobucket.com/albums/b179/Ian_Mu/Trotters.jpg |

Spud, I see you missed two penalties in that game.
I reckon I miss 4 out of 5 penalties!
Fuck knows what I can do about it.
I am in the play-offs now. If I don't go up to the Prem, I think I will quit as I am getting pissed off now.
