I had a load of work to do, so I went on holiday for a while to see what would happen. My assistant got us (Bees) promoted into the Champ at the first time of asking... then I intervened with a few summer transfers, and then went on holiday again to see what would happen. He's only gone an won the play-offs...

Haha - he's embarrassingly good.

First year in the Prem, and I can only afford £17,500 per week as a maximum offer. Not ideal. Best thing about being Brentford is that they genuinely do have a sugar daddy. Lovely.

Although I have just noticed an error in following the rules. As I understand it, if a player hits the post directly from a penalty, that same player isn't then able to follow up and score (without any other player touching it first). I've just scored like this.

I'm in the Premier League as Charlton.. Heeeeelp. I got no decent striker. I'm in trouble.

Depending on if he's still available, I've just been stiffed to a guy called Ezequiel Rescaldini - offered £2m up front with £4m over 48 months and got accecpted. No idea how he develops on your game, but I'm two seasons in and his pretty decent.

arsenal 21 games unbeaten in my save......................so much for realism.
Really getting on my nerves, how can they not slip up at all.

Yeah, it's weird how that never happens in real life. It particularly didn't happen during the 2003/2004 season... for 49 games :D
 
Just been offered Sunderland job (they're in CH), so tempting. Doing well with Cambridge but I have to rebuild at the end of the season again with such a stingy board.
 
just started 2nd season in German 3rd division. Towards the end of the previous season i started to paly 4-5-1 but had a terrible CM, bought a new CM and a guy who can play DC, DM, CM well.

4 games in 3 wins 1 loss
 
Every time I try to access the workshop page ingame to download the Dark skin I get an error box. Deleted all my fines in Appdata and Documents to try and fix it but nothing seems to work.
 
Just got sacked :( Wasn't doing too well, but I was 4 points off 4th spot, even though I was 12th. I even qualified 1st in my EL group. I was really excited with the save :(

Meh. I'll go with Swansea.
 
First game in the Premiership after promotion, playing Stoke, Huth gets sent off in the 22nd minute, Walters in the 23rd...now that is the kind of start that you want!

Didnt know you was on over here as well Noobish
Hows Lepzig doing now?
 
Was playing has Arsenal with 2 of my work friends who were City and Spurs respectively. I won more games and loss less than both of them combined, 7th in League after 9 games (already played United (draw 2-2), Chelsea (win 2-3) and Liverpool (win 2-0)), top in Champions League group by 3 points, still in every cup.
Work mate playing City lost 5 games in a row vs Sunderland / Stoke, 17th in League... still not sacked.
Spurs guy 18th in the League, just got knocked out of FA Cup vs Blackburn 3-1 still not sacked.

however....

I lose 1-0 vs Swansea to a dodgy pen which I called the FA out for, FA remained 'silent', media says I was right. I then get a warning that my job is in jeopardy and I better have a good result next match. Next match is Aston Villa in the FA cup at home, I smash them 3-1.
Next day... sacked...

This game... wtf? even my work mates were saying I don't know how you've got sacked when I ain't even got a warning.

Before getting sacked I had just won 4 games on a trot, got a draw vs Southampton 1-1, beat Lyon 1-3 away from home then one nil loss to Swansea (had a meeting after this game), then a 3-1 win over Aston Villa (sacked).
I was a livid has my next game was Spurs away from home and my work mate was doing terrible!

FYI during this meeting I said I would basically destroy the next team I played
 
I've just bought this seeing as BF4 is still a flaky POS.

Just downloading now. £22.99 was a small price to pay for the amount of time I'll play this. Just need to update it with kits, logos and face packs now. :)
