    Hit the "Print Screen" button on keyboard then open microsoft paint(or something similar) and select "Edit" then "Paste".

    Massive investment in the squad after the CL group stages where I finished third getting me into the UEFA cup. Bought Stephen Hunt. He's making a massive difference to me along with the lad I have out right, Paul Holdsworth who was in the Bolton reserves. While asking the club to improve youth facilities I am also picking up "hot prospect" youngsters from Premiership clubs' youth teams. Started the season winning my annual "Jackie Jameson Cup" (Invitational cup) beating Aberdeen 2-0 in the semi (Peader was ecstatic) and Torino 1-0 in the final.
    Started the season with an away trip to Olympiakos in the UEFA (same season in european terms as my CL run just a new season in terms of the Irish summer season). Was 0-0 until the 91st minute when Stephen Ward, just on as a sub scored with his first touch after 2 months out injured. Secured it with a 2-0 second leg win. Setanta started with 3-0 wins over Balymena (home) and Donegal Celtic (Away) and a 1-0 home win over Drogheda. Got Bayern Munich in the next round of UEFA. Did brilliantly away only losin 3-2 (two precious away goals). Home leg went one up after 7 minutes. Bayern equalised/went back ahead on Agg. just before half time. In the 51st minute we went back ahead on away goals with a header from centre half debutant Tomkinson (can't remember his first name off the top of my head). Heartbreak came 7 minutes from time when Bayern clinched the game with a goal that was clearly offside. I wasn't even repremanded for lashing the ref afterwards it was that obvious.
    Anyway, back to the bread and butter, a league opener against Longford.

    One thing that really annoys me about the game is that you can be 10 points clear at the top of the league be on a great run in Europe and still theres always one whingy fecker who "isn't sure we can beat Longford".
    TO TELL THE TRUTH IS REVOLUTIONARY

    All of this has happened before. All of it will happen again.

    Just a little one of the guides I wrote for my other forum

    Screenshot Guide/FAQ
    By Tazskool

    NOTE: FM07 now has a Screenshot capture all of its own!! So this guide is in 2 sections!

    Using FM to capture screenshots!

    Well it now appears that SI Games has listened to the constant moaning from all the FM players and actually put a “Print Screen” function into the game.

    It is located within the options menu and when you click on it you are given 3 choices.

    1. Print to Printer
    2. Print to HTML Page
    3. Print to Notepad

    You can tell that this is still yet to be fully made up to everyone’s standards but it gives you a good insight into what SI could do better for FM08.


    Right now into the options. Option 1 Printing to Printer.

    This just prints all of the page to your printer and looks like the image below:

    {screenshot to follow]

    Option 2: Print to HTML

    This prints a simple HTML document which will give you the information but it does not take any of the graphics from the page. So if you were printing off a players stats it would show just his stats and not his picture.

    [screenshot to follow]

    Option 3: Print to NotePad

    Very similar to the one above but in notepad form.

    [screenshot to follow]


    In my view this is still something SI need to work on for FM08 but It shows they do listen.

    Also if you want an image to the same standard as you had in FM06 simply take a “Print Screen” and load it into your image program. If you are unsure of how to do this then read my guide on “Making A Screenshot” which can be found at www.fmformation.net

    I also have found a simple program which will let you press “print screen” as many times as you want and capture that image and place it into a folder on your computer without even having to open your graphics program. This program MUST be running when you need to press “Print Screen”. I do not take any responsibility for this program either. It has been virus checked and my wife and I use it for Sims and FM.

    This little program is downloadable from this link below:
    http://tuxdevil.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk/fm07/FSScreen.zip


    Using Your PC
    Creating The Image

    First of all you will need to locate the "Print Screne" button which on a UK designed keyboard is in the top right hand corner next to F12 and has "Prt SC and Sys Rq" on it.

    If you have the screen you wish to capture the image from in your FM game showing simply press this button. Nothing will immediatly happen.

    Open up your "Paint" program (or anyother image manipulation software you have installed) by clicking on Start... All Programs and locating it..

    For example if you are using Paint... then its Start.. All Programs... Accessories.. Paint.

    Once the program has loaded up click on EDIT and then PASTE from the drop down menu which has appeared. The image will appear in the screen below.

    ------------
    Saving The Image

    If you click on FILE at the top of your Paint Program and then SAVE AS. This allows you to choose where you want to save it to and what you want to call it.

    So you are now presented with a box and you need to type the name you wish to give this image into the box marked "File Name".

    File Type - for this you will need to click on the drop down arrow to the right of the selection box and select "JPEG"

    If you look at the top of the screen you will see its asking you where you wish to save it to. The default location is "My Pictures" which in your computer is easy to find. Click on START.. Click on "My Pictures" which is to the top right of that screen when you click on start!

    -------------

    Uploading The Image

    Now if you do not have your own "Homepage" and need a good imagine hosting site there are many free ones out there.
    Imageshack and Photobucket are two good sites.. They are both FREE!!

    this is a pretty handy guide to pretty much everything to do with graphics on FM07

    There's an option you have to turn off in the preferences "Use cached images" or something like that.

    there isnt really much difference between them, just basically update of the squads and a few new features, but the game is so damn addictive why should they change a winning formula and overhaul the whole system just for the sake of it

    even though my overall favourite from the S.I team has to be champo 01/02 or 03/04, i lost so many days of my life playin those games, got bit too easy at the end though because i just got to know exactly which players to buy who would always do great for me
    01/02 was the best game of the series imo

    ya you reminded me about a negative about the game year after year theres certain players who come cheap that always play well and you end up constantly buying them i.e martin palermo( in 00 i think) freddy adu(last yr and well any of last 3 yrz) robinhio (3 yrs ago) etc..... funnily enough though at same time,robinhio for instance through playing the game before he left brazil you could see he was great if i was a manager i would have checked him out... didnt go anywhere for another year or something then after been great in the game for the brazilain team he was with

    i only ever heard of FM from this thread and now i'm addicted. Staunton won Euro 2008 - I can't get him out of that Ireland job for love nor money although I'm doing wonders with WBA

    Anyone else having trouble starting a new game after you've downloaded the patch? It seems to freeze the game up at the loading database stage

    All the Football Manager games are quite unrealistic in my opinion. One major flaw is the transfer market. It's far too easy to sign players who are reputationally much bigger than your club. Example: As Swansea I signed several Australia internationals including Lucas Neill while being just a mid-table Championship side at the time.

    At non-league level it's worse. Generally at semi-pro level where you live determines what clubs you play for. FM does not mirror that well. Plenty of transfers that go on in the game simply would not happen in reality.

    Results in-game aren't too realistic either, at the moment I'm halfway into my third season in the game and Aston Villa are leading the Premiership by five points, with Bolton second. Man United and Chelsea both 10+ points off the pace. Everton won the Premiership last year and Udinese won the Champions' League. Not very likely in real life.

    The FM series is quality but has plenty of issues to sort out and is frequently over-rated, in my opinion.....
