CM9798 only goes to 20 seasons because of how "large" the save files got. in reality, its only a few dozen megabytes but at the time it was easier to program it to stop at 20 than to program it how to deal with larger and larger files. "the community" have repeatedly asked if they could have the source code to CM9798 to update it a bit, fix such bugs, etc. but SI insist it lost all the source code in some accident. Such a pity - but I reckon its more to do with SI being afraid that an up-to-date CM9798 would probably be more fun to more people than the depth of FM08 which is practically a full time job!

I remember turning Hajduk Split into a feared European force.CM 01/02 i think it was.Had Alan Smith and Danny Mills on loan in my second season who became permanent the following season. My greatest hour was taking Hajduk to the Champions League semis in my 4th or 5th season getting beat by Milan on away goals. Great team!!

Cm 97/98, Bringing Preston from the Second Division to Champions League winners....amount of players signed from obscurity to world stars, including my 40 goals a season, Ghanaian striker, Shamon Yahaya...
IN recent games, FM 07. In 5 seasons with Sligo Rovers, winning two leagues on the trot, two Cups, a league Cup, and a Setanta, as well as qualifying for the Uefa Cup group stages, after beating Parma on aggregate, and Paul McTiernan scoring 5 as we beat Boavista 6-1 away from home!
I got to the quarter final of the uefa cup with shamrock rovers in championship manager 00/01. I had a squad of about 20 players. I think i had 3 players suspended and 7 players injured. I couldn't field a team! I couldn't get the game postponed or anything so I had to quit the game, there was no way forward. It kept saying you must field 11 players. I was raging.
Cheating was definitely involved there!?!IN recent games, FM 07.

Life without Rovers, it makes no sense...it's a heartache...nothing but a fools game. S.R.F.C.
To even suggest that!
Still don't believe Rovers would have enough to beat Boavista 6-1 away. Definitely cheatingTo even suggest that!

At the moment I'm managing St.Pats, who have a sugar daddy investing lots of money into the club. I started off at Crewe, won league one straight away, and had them in 8th place in the second season. In the third I was appointed Ireland manager as well, Stanislav Stauntonis getting sacked. Shortly afterwards, I decided to take a step down the ladder and take the reins at Longford, overcoming a 15 point deficit to avoid relegation. My second season there led to all of the squad signing full time deals, but the board unwilling to go full time. I led the team to 7th place. In my third season, I left after 23 games to take the Pats position, leading the team to a respectable 5th place in a very competetive league (Bohs, managed by ROY KEANE, having won the title on the last day by one point from full-timers UCD and Drogheda!). On a side note, Bohs have qualified for the uefa cup group stages two years in a row now, and the EL is ranked 28th in Europe.
In earlier games, I've won the champions league with Shels, the uefa cup with Cork, Rovers and Shams. The only time I cheat is after about 20 years, when I give my rival clubs a few million each to remain competetive

Yeah, happened to me once. Put my Superleague team into the Scottish Third Division (replacing Montrose, of course!), all starting out as bad as possible, but with world class potentials. Got hammered in the first season, then did a Gretna, but by the time I got to SD1, we were all getting Ireland U-21 call-ups, and I had to crash the game, re-load and sign a couple of emergency Italians on loan to get past the game!
You should have put yourself on holidays, your assistant manager would then have selected some makey-up players to fulfill the game. you would probably have lost but at least you could go on..
If you still have it lying around...

I had a couple of seasons in charge of UCD with the 2003/04 edition. I tried to avoid picking players who has already left the club in reality. So it was a bit of a handicap. I stuck Tony Mc Donnell up front in 6 games and he scored 4 times.
In the game he threw a wobbly and put in a transfer request. I told him about this and he laughed it off he said ,'' I'd be happy just to be in the team regularly. Don't mind what position on the field. Completely unrealistic that game !''
I was struggling in Division 1 with a plus goal difference. Every time I managed the team to win a game we hammered teams. All our defeats were by single goals or less. So third from bottom mid season with a plus goal difference. Resigned and took over at Radnicki Nis from Serbia. Narrowly missed promotion to their Premier League on a couple of occasions but had the books in order. A player I knew nothing about had been sent on loan before I got there. The team that signed him made a 600,000 Euro bid for him. I accepted before the game could change the other team's mind.
Interesting. How'd you manage the latter?!
Haven't you heard of goal average?
Not when it comes to deciding individual matches...
Thought I'd ressurect this thread.
I've been on my best ever run in FM07. I took over at Montpellier. Season prediction was 8th in French Second League. Won the league in my first season.
Next season I finished second behind Lyon and won Manager of the Year.
Third season finished third, went out in the QFs of the Champions League to Barca and won the Cup.
Fourth season finished third again, played Nice on the final day of the season at home in what was effectively a second place play-off (Lyon had won their 9th title in a row) and lost 2-0. Won the League Cup and lost in Champions League QFs, again, this time to Liverpool.
I've now left to replace Arsene Wenger at Roma who finished 9th last season and have €62m to spend.

I've heard of someone who wore a suit and invited his friends around for drinks the day his team played in the FA Cup final.
They lost 2-0.
Mutual friend perhaps?
