crossy1686 Posted August 8, 2009 Share Posted August 8, 2009 Is it just me or have other people noticed this? i've only really noticed this in the english leagues but when the teams are drawn in a cup how come a majority of the time i draw a team that i play either the week before of the week after the cup match? for example, i just drew manchester united in the carling cup 3rd round which is the week after i play them in the league, i've also had this happen to me in the league and the champions league so i end up playing the same team 3 times in sucessive games. Is this just purely conicidence or have other people noticed this? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

crossy1686 Posted August 8, 2009 Author Share Posted August 8, 2009 Do you have 9.3 patch? Yeah i have the 9.3 patch. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elrithral Posted August 8, 2009 Share Posted August 8, 2009 Hmmm, there was a problem with cup draws pre 9.3, but I thought it had been fixed with 9.3. Were you mid season when you installed 9.3? Sometimes fixes don't really work until the end of the first season (if installed mid season). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
crossy1686 Posted August 8, 2009 Author Share Posted August 8, 2009 no, i installed the patch ages ago and started a new file a few weeks ago but this has happened almost every season and on every file i've got. It doesn't really bother me but i thought it was quite strange. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevin_chn Posted August 8, 2009 Share Posted August 8, 2009 This problem has long existed since FM06 or 05 or even in CM times. It is unfair to say that this is really a bug, but I believe the randomization coding is poorly done. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
lil ole me Posted August 8, 2009 Share Posted August 8, 2009 the other day my game saved automatically(every few months) just before the FA cup 3rd round draw then i decided the use my headset so i changed the sound to mic and my game crashed no dramas as i had a save only days earlier but when i loaded up my prevoius save i drew the same side in the FA cup so i decided to load again and again and yes, i drew the same side again and alot of other fixtures were the same too (not all though) and yes i do have 9.3 patch also......I didn`t complain too much as the side i drew was Accrington Stanley Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
crossy1686 Posted August 10, 2009 Author Share Posted August 10, 2009 The day after i started this thread, i drew aston villa in the UEFA cup and in the FA cup and i also played them in the league, meaning i played villa a total of 5 times in a month. I have a screen print to prove it but it won't let me post it . Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
drmanley Posted August 10, 2009 Share Posted August 10, 2009 Does anyone else find that they always get drawn in the first or last tie of the draw as well (also on 9.3)? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
hamilton162 Posted August 10, 2009 Share Posted August 10, 2009 If you save just before the draw and reload, then the fixtures will be exactly the same. I'm on 9.3.0 and i am usually in the middle of the draw somewhere FWIW Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
rougess Posted August 10, 2009 Share Posted August 10, 2009 This has happened to me a few times, but nowhere near regularly enough for it to be common. I've found that when it happens to me, it tends to be a team I want to play as few times as possible, ie Man Utd, Chelsea, etc Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
PERCIVA11 Posted August 10, 2009 Share Posted August 10, 2009 I get this in every league cup 3rd round draw. If I was Newcastle and I was playing Hull the next week or whatever I would get Hull in the draw. Also later on in the draw like quarters or something when my team comes up it then pauses and then comes up with who I play and it's either one of the big four Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
