I tried but couldn't find him. I have a medium database set, maybe I should have made it bigger. :(Quote:

Signed him for Rovers in 08 and he singlehandedly got me to Europe for 2 seasons. At 37 and 38 years of age.Quote:

Try load players from Morocco or Luxembourg if you're really that desperate for him.Quote:

If your game doesn't load the 3D engine you'll need to download Direct X 9 and you should be fine thenQuote:

Finding players is so hard in this game, especially strikers.
EDIT: Feck ye Jebus!, Mustapha Hadji is a referee in FM 2009:(
I was looking forward to getting a goal machine.:(
How is everyone else doing with Rovers?
3 games left and I'm embroiled in a relegation battle, 3 clear of Cobh...4 teams fighting it out...
Derry have just won 5 in a row, including a 4-0 win at Dalymount and a 5-1 trouncing of Sligo at the Showgrounds. Cork and Cardiff have offered 80k and 85k respectively for Ciaran Martyn!
Just escaped relegation on GD by 2 goals.Quote:

No idea how i managed to sign them, Nick Colgan want to play for Rovers too:eek:

Glad to see I'm not the only doing ****e with them so:)
He starts the game with a club called Fola Esch and he's a playmaker not a strikerQuote:

So I signed a decent Russian left-back called Mitlin from some amateur side of jokers instead.Quote:

Coming 2nd with only few games to go, 3 points behind Drogs..
Cork are 10th with about 15 points :eek:
The corkies have got through to the Uefa Cup group stage in my game.:eek:
They beat hearts 1-0 away and held them to 0-0 in the 2nd leg.:)
Im really shocked, i didn't know it was possible, 1st time in the history of my CM/FM career that a LOI team has qualifyed for the group stages.
Joe Gamble's senior cap ignored in the database...
And I am the only one staggered by the length of his injury list? :eek:
There was only ten teams in the division in 2008 so only 36 games... Maybe it was like that in the premier, I didn't notice as I wasn't playing in that division..Quote:

What is the Limerick squad like in it? Is it better that last years game?
Top 3 in my first season was 1. Drogs, 2. Bohs, 3. Derry. Was close til the end but squad was too small to cope, intend to sign a few covering players and increase my deoth for next season.
Also, for anyone who's interested, someone on Football365 forum posted the following tactics and pdf files:
http://www.fm-britain.co.uk/download...ts_Tactics.zipQuote:
50-page .pdf, a cheat sheet, and a load of awesome formations including classic Ajax tactics & Queiroz's asymetric 4-3-2-1.
Read the 50-pager, especially the bits on the top-manager tactic breakdowns - it covers Mourinho, Lippi, Capello, Ferguson, Wenger, Benitez, O'Neill etc including exactly how to set each team up for attacking, standard or defensive play.
It's showed me how I've been using the wrong fowards in the wrong way, how to get the best out of a playmaker, which I've been doing wrong, etc.
Of course, there's a danger it might overcomplicate things but seems to be getting a load of rave reviews on those forums.
He's missed roughly 65% of my games through suspension I'd say.Quote:

Sligo Rovers are not rivals with Monaghan, and should probably have Derry at lower rating than 80 in that regard too.
Also I'd have Shams in there as "Other Rivals".
Raf Cretaro can play either wing and up front.
Steve Feeney is a D/M/F C and also a Youth Coach.
Rommy Boco should have RB listed as competent or something similar.
There's two David McDaid's in the game, both 17, and with Derry.
Peers is a CB as well as RB
Ventre is a D R/L/C and is probably competent at CM too.
Also our attendance average should be at about 1800.
Our thrid kit is green.
That's all my queries about Rovers anyway until I see/think of more...
Also Don O Riordan is not a legend, and Sean Flannery is not an "icon".
Gerry Carr should be listed as legend. Possibly Cook as well.
(So what if I'm pedantic?)
