Yeah taken a team out of the BSN to the BSP :D

Really hard to find players at this level though, but I have Calvin Zola :D (rubbish in L2 but should tear up the BSP)
 
Had to google the Pentagon challenge :eek:

Wouldn't have the patience to do it from sunday league experience!

Watford look fun just because in real life they are so oddly unpredictable, should be able to fix them. Very amused by the blue square premier league, I am trying to amass as many ex-saints as possible, have Claus Lundekvam as a scout, STERN JOHN and Sam McQueen (who is in your u18's team) at Bishop's Stortford which is a lot of fun.
 
I always start the game with a challenge. Last year it was the journeyman, which I nearly did (until I lost interest in the game). This year I thought about the pentagon challenge.

I'm sick of getting a second division team into the CL. its fun, until you buy the best brazillian, cheap regens.

Its down to pentagon challenge or going from lowest division to CL (San Marino Challenge maybe?)

Yeah there has to be a challenge or a theme to the game, it's no fun just being my team and getting annoyed now (we were more fun in L1 and the champ, now its just tedious).

I'm still going for the make a team build me a stadium before I am bored challenge! Got Burton to do one last season a few weeks ago and was selling out every game but I haven't had enough time from getting it and playing the new one :(

Lowest division you can stand to CL is always fun, that's the opening game this year as I don't have much interest in other games at the moment. Though I do plan to have a home grown team by the time I get to the CL, minimum of 70% trained in nation and 40% trained in club...
 
Well this was a bit annoying


(Quite terrible quality since upload highlights wasn't working :p)

That's what you get in lower league! :p

Had my keeper throw it out straight to an opposing striker and concede before :(

Also had the ball bounce off both posts then just stop on the edge with all the players watching it for about 3 seconds before someone hoofed it away. I have been entertained but confused with this FM so far.
 
Has Jay Emanuell-Thomas been left as an utter beast?? He used to tear up the champ by being quick and strong...

Should make Ipswich a good Champ team
 
if ipswich are a good champ team then they have failed in making the game realistic. xD

:p like most teams in the champ having a powerful/quick striker can make up for most problems in the squad (on FM).

If he's still a tank you can get round the leaky defence either by selling him for big money and investing or just out scoring every team... :cool:
 
Well the confused looks are back, had an odd conversation with mum of why I am shouting at the pc after conceding a 94th min goal at home to Lincoln to loose 4-3 (after bringing it back to 3-3 from 3-0 down and just having a goal disallowed)
 
Patch coming for the Beta game this weekend alongside the Demo :)

There will not be a day one patch, the day one game will be as it should be.

Thank god! Had enough of the ai hitting crosses to the back post to find my entire back line not man marking the one guy in the box there for an easy goal...
 
I'm still peeved with the match engine, far too many unbelievable keeper pretty much throws it into his own net moments and quite a few "the ref wants the ai to win" games with dubious penalties against me and a fair few off side goals.

Hopefully it'll become a little more sane next week in release.
