Football Manager 2009 Demo?

[MarcLister]

Did read the latest one last night but got fairly bored!

You should skim through them, they've listed most of the new features in the blogs, with more to be announced still, there's going to be a few more this week starting tomorrow.

Did they?

Is it possible to listen to these podcasts without iTunes? Won't install/run on my PC.

I don't have iTunes either, though out of choice rather than being unable to install. I just read the blogs and the SI forums every now and again.

I skimmed through them earlier. Found some new features! Then realised I'd just missed them first time around!

Is anyone else concerned at the lack of an announcement so far regarding the training module ?

Personally, If it is still the horrific slider bar crap as it has been for the last four years plus, then all of the other improvements are irrelevant.

Meant to ask you earlier but if you were in charge of FM p) how would you design the training module? What is it that you don't like about the current system?

If only ...

It's still the slider bar thingy for training looking at latest screenshots :

Why improve other features of the game yet leave alone one of the most important features as it is, it's been like this for to long.

The training module is the work of the devil, it really is pants and ruins the game for me.

I was hoping they would reintroduce the timetable, where you could select what training you wanted your players to do in the morning and afternoon etc and prepare your players better for match day. Something more realistic and engaging than it currently is.

Obviously they still think the current system is better than other ideas they've though about for it, to be fair. I'll just have to see what it's like in the demo before thinking about buying it.

I used to love the calender, took a lot of time and effort but was fun you knew exactly what your players were doing on each day, preparing them different ways for up coming games. Would love to see this back in the game.

Exactly.

I think it was CM4 where they had it, and when they brought out FM '05 the next year they done away with the timetable and intoruduced this slider bar malarky, I was gutted as I thought they would improve on the timetable.

For five years it's been this slider bar nonsense ...

BRING BACK THE TIMETABLE
