tigerhgrrrrrr Posted June 18, 2009 Share Posted June 18, 2009 Now we have the IRL fixtures for 09/10 to whet the appetie for the new season, and bearing in mind the teams "out of their leagues" (Newcastle, Burnley, Wolves, Southampton, Norwich, Luton spring to mind), who do you plan to manage (if not your own favourite team as standard)? I have run a search and cannot find a thread of this nature, surprisingly, so I hope this is original! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
golfpunk Posted June 18, 2009 Share Posted June 18, 2009 I no doubt will attempt to manage my beloved Aberdeen, which I've yet to try in FM09 yet :o I do plan to start a save with them before FM2010 comes out though. After that I just like to randomly choose a team in a random league and take them to success Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

SCIAG Posted June 18, 2009 Share Posted June 18, 2009 My team, Reading! I don't think I will, I manage to get us relegated last time If I buy FM10, I'll manage Real first, then I'll move on to some lower league sides I've never heard of. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spleen! Posted June 18, 2009 Share Posted June 18, 2009 On FM09, all I've done so far is holidayed for a season, then taken over a promoted team. I tried being a good team, but just couldn't get into it, so I imagine I'll be doing the same on FM10. Barito Putra probably. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr.Grandpa Posted June 18, 2009 Share Posted June 18, 2009 My annual dynasty mode FTW Starting with my home Slovenia team Celje and then across the Europe building my reputation like i always do. Currently in my 09 game I'm grinding out my 21st season and I'm in Lazio for the 11 straight season (I was in Celje 10 season before i left for them).

BobMUFC08 Posted June 18, 2009 Share Posted June 18, 2009 Crewe Alexandra as usual, will be a longer save now that Crewe are in League 2:D Then I'll manage Man Utd in a new save and keep starting new games with either Crewe or United when I get bored of the either one.

Rushers82 Posted June 18, 2009 Share Posted June 18, 2009 I normally manage my team Exeter City (currently fighting for promotion to the Championship in 2012/13 in FM09), but having just been promoted to League One irl, although it will be a challenge to keep them there, it's too high a level to start the game at for me. I think Weymouth in the BSS will be a good challenge - just been relegated, very few players (mostly youngsters I think), probably going part-time, and in quite a dire financial situation. That's where I will be in FM10. Anyone know of any other clubs with similar issues at this sort of level that might be worth a fight at? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Innawerkz Posted June 18, 2009 Share Posted June 18, 2009 Chivas - as usual. After this years disappointing run in the Mexican leagues, I'm interested to see how SI scouts rate the up & coming youths that Guadalajara have groomed - especially since they haven't made ANY additions during the transfer window and have sent 9 players out from their squad. Some of the new youths are making it onto the National team for their first time so might have great long term potential. I'm also interested to see how SI work out the 'Copa Libertadore' for 2010 with Chivas getting a free pass to the second round after this years 'swine flu hysteria' saw them withdraw from the competition prematurely.

Stevicus Posted June 18, 2009 Share Posted June 18, 2009 Think I will do my usual thing. Liverpool, then after failure will start up as Cheltenham. Will then probably start to manage premiership teams who have massive potential (Aston Villa, Everton, Tottenham etc.) Maybe this time I will manage a team outside th UK:D Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
bazzathe1st Posted June 18, 2009 Share Posted June 18, 2009 I generally try running two teams at once. Always my team Leicester, then another manager as a random club, start unemployed and see who wants me. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
hamilton162 Posted June 18, 2009 Share Posted June 18, 2009 I shall do my usual thing and get onto managing Wycombe as soon as the game comes out.

Or possibly Cambridge City Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

heathxxx Posted June 18, 2009 Share Posted June 18, 2009 Same as always Man Utd - Always easy yes, but gives me a chance to play with some more extreme tactical settings with some of the best player attributes. Granada CF - Will be interesting to see if their current financial plight, along with lots of other lower league Spanish clubs has been "researched". "Someone" - In the BSN for my dose of English lower league. "Random" - Large DB and playable leagues selected from the start for my annual "World Tour" save.

Brian Shanahan Posted June 18, 2009 Share Posted June 18, 2009 I might try Boca when I get it (usually do one Argentinian save, but haven't got around to it in 09), and for a truly mind-bending experience maybe the MSL Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sir_Liam Posted June 18, 2009 Share Posted June 18, 2009 Outside of my regular game with Leicester City I'll look for another random side in a random league across the world. I've often gone for sides in extreme locations such as Hammerfest (Most Northern playable team in FM07) and Luch Vladivostok (Far East Russia). Currently I'm managing TP-47 who are from Lapland in Northern Finland. Next time it could well be a team from the Azores Islands (I think) in Portugal or from the Canary Islands.

Nicki Posted June 18, 2009 Share Posted June 18, 2009 I will manage Brøndby IF (and try not to curse my pc for letting them suck ) and Los Angeles Galaxy and laugh because no matter how hard I try, I can't make them suck as bad as in real life (No offence intended ) and for a change I think I will try to manage a league 2 team into a solid Premier League side.
