I have so far worked my way up from League 2 to Premiership in Scotland, but my new save is as Nuneaton. I got sacked in my first season as Stockport!

Hey, it's not always easy in the big leagues either - I got sacked before the winter break at Sevilla 
Hey bud, which tablet you gonna be playing this on? Surface?
(Also do you play SF4?)

I've ordered the new Dell 7140, with the 2.9GHz Core M CPU, 256GB SSD & 8GB RAM, a lot cheaper than the surface pro (not that I'd ever say no to one, just couldn't afford it)
SF4?

Ah cheers for letting me know
Reason for asking was I want to play this to on the Surface Pro 4 i7 I ordered... cant wait to get it
SF4 - Street fighter 4. I got somebody on Steam called Space Monkey who plays it, thought it was you
(I must have added him as a random who I played in the game).

Ah right, not me I'm afraid
I'd be interested to know how it plays on the SP4, you play with the 3D match engine?
I'm also going to order the keyboard with built in battery as well, even more FM on the go

Er don't know yet! Havent play it on my PC yet tbh, but guess I will do!
More battery on the go sounds like a plan!

Should run really nicely, that was the one I was going to get but bought the newer one at the last minute, that's still a very high spec tablet

Good to know - very tempted for the ~£340 price!
Had a really strong end to first season with Leyton Orient, found some good form thanks to 3 loanees from Man Utd. Got 3rd automatic promotion spot but it was crazy close, a loss in the last game could have dropped me as low as 7th depending on results elsewhere. I signed some big wage players for L1, decided to go all out so relegation could be disastrous financially Managed to get James Weir and Ryan Tunnicliffe on frees to strengthen that midfield along with a 30year old RB who was playing well in Serie A with some super stats!
3rd place after 16 games pretty pleased with that, finally got the bug again haven't even loaded Fallout 4 the last few nights!

I might be asking a very dumb question with an obvious answer but does anyone know if FM can show you where you are making your attacks in terms of statistics and where the majority of your attacks are coming from, i.e. down the left, middle or right?

Use pro zone at the end of a match, sums up pretty much everything.
Anyone got a game going with the 8 year save uploaded above?
@Space Monkey - let us know when you receive/get FM running, still very tempted!

Out of interest why don't you just choose your club of preference and holiday for 8 years? Although I suppose you could get the sack
I didn't think about that. I've a save from 2022 or thereabouts. Ayr in the Scottish Premiership, so it might not appeal

I'm usually Fulham - I'd be sacked within 8 months if it's not me playing!

Grabbed this yesterday. Started a disposable save with just one league loaded on my laptop. Will start properly at the weekend on gaming PC at home, but anyway, taken over Man Utd.
Put Rooney on the transfer list and stripped him of the captaincy Played 2 games, lost 4-2 to Liverpool, at Old Trafford.. 
Was 4-0 down at half time, oops. Then went to the emirates and lost 3-1 Lots of injuries already so think I may be training too hard.
Also, Spurs want £67m for Harry Kane
EDIT: Once I start properly, I'm tempted to stat at Salford City FC, but not 100% sure yet. On Fifa I always get bored of playing/managing in England
Next game lost 3-0 away at Lazio in the Champions League qualifiers

My board just asked me my opinion whether they should buy the stadium and I don't know what to reply. It doesn't give any clue as to what it would cost, but the current rent is £180k per year. I don't want them to put the club in massive debt and I have no funds to buy players for the Championship next season as was often the case in previous FMs...
