    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.
    He starts the game with a club called Fola Esch and he's a playmaker not a striker

    No sir it is not.

    Apparently they decided to put in millions of annoying little glitches instead

    No. This annoys me. Especially as there's only one reserve division now consisting solely of premier reserve teams and Mervue are inexplicably the only non-league team to pop up in the underage section. I have taken my ball and gone sulking to the Swedish 4th tier instead where I am blissfully ignorant of any such glaring errors.

    I bet they could have put in the A Championship and kept at least half of their glitches too if they really wanted to...

    And Aston Villa. He was to be the star of my aborted Limerick game after signing for a princely sum of 300euro a week for which he humiliated opposition left-backs and turned his nose up at my lack of experience. Then the game refused to load for no apparent reason. And when I started afresh in Lulea he was absent from the database. It just was not meant to be. So I signed a decent Russian left-back called Mitlin from some amateur side of jokers instead.

    The corkies have got through to the Uefa Cup group stage in my game.

    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?

    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..

    I'm waiting to get this until after exams for obvious reasons.

    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:

    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.
    http://www.fm-britain.co.uk/download...ts_Tactics.zip

    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.

    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?)
