Swafe Posted May 20, 2009 Share Posted May 20, 2009 Whilst playing FM, i saw a hint & tip saying if a player is at one of his favourite clubs his performances will increase or something like that - you get the drift Which gave me an idea, what if i create a team and fill it with people and their favoured personnell? It was hard figureing out who to start with as i didnt want anyone whos favoured personell only had them as favoured personell other wise the team would consist of maybe four people I also wanted a British manager, so, after a few tries, i ended up with Paul Ince Now to make sure i didnt have every player/manager etc. in the game at the club i decided to only take those whose rating was 70 or over, also no big names were taken, i.e. say a player liked Steven Gerrard, he then likes most of the England squad and so on untill the team is full of big name players, one more thing, as a lot of players have managers as favourites i limited these to 3 as my coaches are all manager in their own right The team is called Friends ReUnited, or the BFFs for short Their Chairman is Saul Goode (made up) They are based in London and play at Highbury, they have taken Blackpool's spot in the Championship (sorry to any Blackpool fans) Their Staff and Team is as follows Manager: Paul Ince Ass Man: Mark Venus, Ray Mathias, Graham Barrow Coach: Tony Mowbray, Dave Jones, George Burley Gk Coach: Malcom Webster, Paul Jones Fitness Coach: Duncan Russell Youth Coach: Paul Power, Alex Gibson, Jim Cassell Physio: Joe Hinnigan Scout: Alex Smith, Barry Poynton, Tommy McLean, Simon Hunt GK: Bartosz Bialkowski GK: Kelvin Davis GK: Paul Jones (Player/Coach) GK: Richard Wright DRC: Martin Craine DRL: Chris Gunter DRC: Martin Taylor DR, DM: Jermaine Wright DR, MC: Darcy Blake DL, AMLC: Mark Kennedy DC: Lorenzo Amoruso DC: Craig Moore C/WB/ML: Gareth Bale DM, AMC: Joey Barton MLC: Joe Ledley MC: David Dunn MC: Aaron Ramsey MC: Nathan Dyer AMRLC: Jason Koumas AMRLC: Charlie Moore AMR: Shaun Wright-Phillips AMRL, FC: Steven Naismith AMR, FC: Bradley Wright-Phillips AML, ST: Lee McChulloch AMC: Keith Andrews ST: Kris Boyd ST: Cameron Jerome Am testing the database at the moment so all goes well will update on how they do tonight Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Swafe Posted May 20, 2009 Author Share Posted May 20, 2009 Any predictions? Will the team morale really help the team up the league? How will Paul Ince handle his first job since Blackburn? Will the prescence of Joey Barton disrupt the harmony or will he finally settle down at the club? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swafe Posted May 20, 2009 Author Share Posted May 20, 2009 August 4th 2008 A slow start to July but some good results late on in the month Kicked things off with a 2-1 defeat away to Notts Co, Jason Koumas netting Two days later saw another away trip this time to Darlington, 2-2 draw, better result but not really what was expected, Ramsey and Boyd getting on the scoresheet Then saw two signings, the first was Elliot Ward - £1.9m from Coventry, followed by Anthony Kay from Tranmere for £70k These new faces couldnt help results though as Friends lost away to Shrewsbury, again 2-1, Cameron Jerome this time with the consolation However just two days later the BFFs were onto winning ways, again away, Cambridge proved no match and a brace from Dunn sealed it, 2-0 Another new face was brought in, this time an Arsenal player, Thomas Cruise for £325k, if hes anything like his name sake he'll be running his little backside off He didn't play in the next game though, a 3-0 thrashing of Yeovil, again away, Boyd Barton and Koumas all netting with Ward picking up the MOTM And finally the first home game of the season and last friendly, also arguably the best result so far, Stoke were the visitors and the result was 3-2 a home win against a Premiership side, Dunn Barton and Boyd all score, Gunter MOTM Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kenco Posted May 20, 2009 Share Posted May 20, 2009 They should do well in the Championship, but that's more to do with the ability of the squad than who they have listed as a favourite team/personnel. Perhaps a way of testing this is to create 2 identical teams and all their players, with one difference being that one set of players has their team listed as a favourite and the others don't? Hmm, this is something I might try, could even throw a 3rd team into the mix, with players who dislike their own club/manager/team-mates.......
