    How are you getting on with this CTID?

    On another issue, I've tried managing Harps twice and have gotten relegated twice and sacked both times. Finding the game extremely difficult. Any tips? Hard to attract and sign players as well but I guess that's nothing new with Harps

    Managing Fisher Athletic now in the Blue Square South but can't get into it at all. Havn't played it in ages.

    Injurys in this game suck, i came from the Serie C2 all the way up to Serie B, i got 3 serious injurys in my first 2 games and now my striker got injured for 3 weeks.

    3 games, 3 losses, no goals and bottom of the league with 6 of my starters injured.

    Always a shame when you take a club as far as they can go and then you lose interest when you take over at another club. Happened to me there with AFC Wimbledon, took them from BS South to League One, secured to mid tables in a row and got offered the Fulham job in the Championship, took them to the Premier and lost interest after another mid table season.

    I've taken on the job of Annan Athletic in the Scottish 3rd Division. Riding high, only November yet in my first season and I'm three points behind the leaders.

    Anyone know when the next official patch is out?

    I got out of the Group Stages with Bohs in '08 after about 5 seasons. Lost to Juventus in the knockout rounds. '09 seems to be tougher though.

    I got Harps to the last 16 in the Champions League in the 03/04 game...was probably around 2011/2012 in the game when I did. Chelsea knocked me out. Havn't got close since in any of the newer games. They have definitely got tougher.

    In 03/04 I got Shelbourne into the Semi Final of the Champions League in my fourth season with no editing! As soon as starting the game I'd sign a guy called Dudu Cearense (sp) on a free, he'd take up nearly all of your wage budget but he'd always sign, the rest were just free transfers or loans...snd season Dudu would of scored 20 goals from midfield and be worth 3 or 4 million, sell him and buy a Belaraus international called Sergey Kisliy (£250k) from BATE & Freddy Guarain (£400k) & the goalkeeper from Envigiado, I would also sign Nik Besagno on a free and Eddie Gaven who wouldn't always sign...then I'd use the rest of the money to buy loads of Irish players...Tom Lyons from Palace & Willie John Kiely (Then Aberdeen) were favourites - that team walked the league and made progress in the Champions League - you'd then sell the foreign superstars for a small fortune and before you'd know it you'd have 12 or 13 million to buy yourself a squad! Probably not the most realistic of the FM games but certainly the most playable

    wow

    im currently managing germany and its pretty fun. i mean i could pick a squad full of goalkeepers. some of the appearances are insane. schweinsteiger is like only 26 and has 90 caps, mertesacker(his dribbling ability is 1 lol) is close behind him. ive basically formed a new squad and i hope to play until 2018 world cup.

    most of my better players dont start for their club but kroos has come in and excelled so ive dropped ballack back into a sitting playmaker role.

    gomez is scoring for fun in the league but he needs about a zillion chances to score internationally
