Fans, mostly ones who would know more than others

I only bought it today, taking ages to joke. Im going to start with rams, and pretend the last year never happened. Oh happy days when we were higher than limerick. After writing this im afraid that because its online yolk it might be updated, i hope its not.

Usually you can find it at Program Files\Steam\steamapps\common\football manager 2009\tools\data editor.

Sports Interactive folder instead, if you didn't install it through Steam.

End of the first season - I'm managing in the Netherlands with it's crazy playoff systems - so I'd thought I'd have a look at the League of Ireland

Pretty much a perfect season for Bohs fans

Lost out on the league by 4 goals. Close season!!

**Aaron** · 25/04/2009, 12:07 PM

Update is now done. Will upload shortly. When starting a season select 2009 and the league format will be as it is in real-life

**niallsparky** · 25/04/2009, 1:46 PM

Nice one. Looking forward to it.

Very well done, but a small problem...

I downloaded this and lost all my other files!! Facepacks, backgrounds, about 4 hours worth of downloads

Unless you deleted them the files you downloaded should still be there, all you need to do is re-install them

ended up just re-installing whole game and downloaded the patch again, i take it the update 9.3.0 is included in your patch??

**Red&White Rover** · 08/05/2009, 12:31 AM

Started a new game with Leeds there the other day after a long while of no FM.

I remember why I love this game.

Just finished season 2010 with Derry and here's how the table went:

I went into the last game 3pts clear playing overs away, and if Bohs won and I lost they would have won the league on GD. I was duffed 3-0 but luckily Bohs drew 1-1 with Sporting Fingal to hand me the title. Pat Fenlon got a warning for complaining about having a goal disallowed

Have quit playing FM09 because I genuinely think it's a bit crap and gone back to FM05, so much more fun to be honest

Anyway I came in to post these two responses on a thread on another forum re: the angriest you've ever been playing the game as they genuinely had me in tears of laughter

The angriest response to the game I've seen was from a pal of mine.

He's become convinced of the game's cheating "first shot sydrome" whereby if you were a better team, you could batter an opposition and them out of nowhere their first effort on goal would fly in. He'd whinged at me for ages about this, but I ignored the guy (as you do...)

Then one day arriving at his house, he answered the door with countless sheets of paper. He'd gone through EVERY SINGLE match report that year to see what happened to his first shot on goal and what happened to his opponents'. He claimed have conclusive proof (from about 60 matches or more) that the computer was 3 times as likely to score with its first shot.

I had no response to a spitting mad statto. Not much you can say.

Was playing the old CM3. Using Fulham and brought them up from lord knows what division to the Prem League. After about 4 or 5 season in the Prem I've got an amazing team, and am leading Liverpool by 3 points with a +5 goal difference advantage over them.

For the final game of the season I'm beating QPR 2-0 at halftime. Job done I thought.

Full time score. QPR 5 - 2 Fulham. Liverpool won their match as well, 2 - 0 and win the Prem on goal difference.

I was angry enough as it was and was contemplating what to smash up in my room until I read the Liverpool match report. Goal times: 90 and 90.

Ended up just ejecting the CD from the computer, going to the garage and going to town smashing on it with my dad's hammer, tears streaming from my face, screaming obscenaties while I did it.
