Ok finished 2nd in the Premiership with Arsenal, Chelsea were just unstoppable! Won the league cup though :p

Anyway I have been searching for some graphics to the premiership. Found some good kits but the logos I have found have a english flag behind them :(. Does anyone know where I can download some plain premiership logos from? I did a google but could find any.

11 days, 2 hours. "I am a football manager expert".
Pah! My record was 21 days 14 hours in FM07. :p.
Im upto 10 days something in 08 at the moment.

Cant say that it doesnt get its moneys worth! lol. :p.
 
I just purchased this today, and after a hiatus of six years I discovered that FM has changed quite a bit. I also know very little about the current football scene, which should make things interesting.

I spent my first hour or so editing stuff and then chose Nottingham Forest as my first test team. After winning a friendly I went straight to the media and declared that Sir Alex Ferguson was past it and should consider retiring... He promptly responded by suggesting I was incompetent. This game has my card marked already it seems. :D

I'll spend tomorrow trying to find my way around the interface, which just seems a confusing mess at the moment...
 
my save game corrupted without a backup,( i know, foolish)

not well-formed (invalid token) at line 1 of last_saved_game. is the error

I know it's caused by turning the PC off at the wall and upon googling it many people have problems, just there's no fix that I can find

Any help/ideas?
 
Had my best result as Chelsea manager before. Beat Man Utd at Old Trafford 2-1 :D

Lampard double after Tevez scored for them. Dont like playing Utd though, seeing how Ronaldo plays, makes me want him even more :D

Currently 1 point clear in the Premiership now. It will be between us two. Arsenal and Liverpool are 6 points behind. We are in early Feb 08.

Now that you've put the idea into my head I so want to do the same. :D

You could try opening the game file in Notepad++ or something and seeing if you can see anything wrong with the first line? Perhaps load FM first and load a quick game and save that so you can see what a well formed token looks like and try and fix your current saved game?
 
Argh, what a dill. Downloaded the 802 patch and installe it without thinking ... forgetting that I have the digital download version and when patched with the 'retail' patch it asks you for the game disc ....

How ******* irritating, prolly have to reinstall it now :(
 
Thats what I asumed as when you check the update option ingame it just goes to SI and recognises that there is an update but unable to find it. So downloaded it from elsewhere and it gave me grief.

Reinstalling as we speak (type :P)
I believe that page is broken. SI said it was a while ago as it offers no link.
