go-on-jonny!!! Posted August 16, 2009 Share Posted August 16, 2009 I was just wondering if the rumours i have heard are true, that on FM10 you can be a chairman of a club, and also if you are playing multi player on steam can you be chairman and have one of your friends as your manager.

Haynes28 Posted August 16, 2009 Share Posted August 16, 2009 How does this idea come up every week? I can't even see the appeal in such a thing, and luckily I don't think SI can either. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ben147 Posted August 16, 2009 Share Posted August 16, 2009 I like the idea of being chairman cos I'd love to be able to sack and appoint managers but that's where the appeal ends for me. Maybe a freeware type game made in C++ or something is the best chance for such a thing. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smythe Posted August 17, 2009 Share Posted August 17, 2009 Not such a stupid statement as you might think. You have a wage as a manager, and career earnings, It would be an interesting sub game or variation on the main game, that you could save these earning, and when you decide and the situation arrises, buy a club (probably a lower league team) and run them. You could choose to handle team affairs yourself, or appoint staff to do various things for you. Invest in the stadium set transfer budgets, take out loans etc etc.... I mean lots of it has nothing do with football management in many ways, more business management, and the scope of it would be too great to encorperate into an already feature and data heavy game, however if SI released an add on to football manager that was game almost dediccted to this I would buy it/play it.

Yes it is. As is said every time this comes up the above would be pointless and boring after about 5 mins. Why use up valuable development time doing something this rubbish?

I understand your point but your self righteous attitude, degrades both your opinion and yourself. Please point out to me where I have a self righteous attitude. I make a very valid point that this is a pointless feature that would take up valuable develpment time that could be much better spent in other areas.

rougess Posted August 17, 2009 Share Posted August 17, 2009 In another recent "Chairman Manager 2010" type thread that we often see, someone highlighted all the plus points of being able to be a chairman. Me and a few others pointed out that those features would have absolutely no longevity whatsoever. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Self-righteousness (also called sententiousness) is a feeling of smug moral superiority derived from a sense that one's beliefs, actions, or affiliations are of greater virtue than those of another person. Just because you might not like something does not make it rubbish. I do not like classical music, however I certainly dont think it is rubbish. Anyway, odd to get in argument with computer people.

I don't simply think this idea is rubbish because I don't like. I know it's rubbish because it get's brought up time and time again on here and there is yet to be a good reason for adding it put forward. As oppose to the hundreds of reasons put forward for why it is pointless. My statement that it is a rubbish idea is not based on my opinion at all, it is based on fact.

backpackant Posted August 17, 2009 Share Posted August 17, 2009 I'm sure SI have said this is not something that's even in the "consider" pile. Or words to that effect.

Ahh fact, the most reason based of resources. Well if its based on fact, then you must be right.

Although it's hard not to be dismissive in threads such as this which are brought up a lot, but never sustantiated with a decent reason as to why this feature would actually benefit the game.

Indeed i do tend not to comment on threads along the lines of "when is the game out !11" etc although i tried fifa manager & was not impressed, i thought if this person wants the set up of chairmen he/she would be best suited to play fifa manager. But for FM a chairman feature would not suit way in which SI have been sailing metaphorically Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
