Koppol Posted March 7, 2009 Share Posted March 7, 2009 Dont know if its been mentioned before or is already in the game, but it would be a nice gimmick to be knighted for service to football in the game. Opinions? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ftg87 Posted March 7, 2009 Share Posted March 7, 2009 other people can get honuary knighthoods Yeah, but they can't be called Sir, only British people can Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SSGTroyer Posted March 7, 2009 Share Posted March 7, 2009 But only the British can be knighted... Yeah, I know... As an aside, in FM06 I had a massive regen who was born in land-locked Nebraska. After he won the Golden Boot, I gave him a nickname reflecting the "fact" that the Nebraska legislature had voted him an Admiral in the Nebraskan Navy (an actual honour, BTW).

Johnyboy Posted March 7, 2009 Share Posted March 7, 2009 Yeah, but they can't be called Sir, only British people can yeah this would be great feature although like other people have done..you can be the queen yourself and simply alters people nicknames Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

DanGLiverpool Posted March 7, 2009 Share Posted March 7, 2009 Just another idea for people who are full of themselves to become more high of themselves. If you are that pompous of yourself, just change your nickname to Sir XXX XXXXXXX. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cityull Posted March 7, 2009 Share Posted March 7, 2009 This got mentioned a few months ago and i agreed with it, but most other people said it was stupid and has no place in the game as its not directly linked to football. glad people like it though its definatly you would aim to win isn't it?

heathxxx Posted March 7, 2009 Share Posted March 7, 2009 Just another idea for people who are full of themselves to become more high of themselves. If you are that pompous of yourself, just change your nickname to Sir XXX XXXXXXX. In that case then, for my acheivements with the "mighty" Altrincham I should now be... Sir Heathxxx CBE, DBE, GBE, KBE, MBE, OBE, Freeman of Altrincham & Generally Great Bloke, whilst also considering that possibly they will form a new religeon based upon the general worship of my excellence, building shrines in my honour and have rows of scantily clad priestess' sprinklink rose petals before me as I walk to the dugout. For this worship, I will perform "miracles", such as "The Beating Of Northwich Victoria By One Injury Time Winning Goal To Nil". They will write songs about me, build statues of me and name buildings, even countries after me when I'm gone.... They also might consider appointing me Chancellor of the Exchequor, given my superb handling of the clubs finances. Ahh... it's amazing what consuming large quantities of alcohol does for one's self-esteem. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ism-scfc Posted March 7, 2009 Share Posted March 7, 2009 It should definitely be Sir Jim Gannon. Despite the fact he's Irish, I assume he'd qualify due to being born in Southwark? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
