Tom =) Posted March 6, 2008 Author Share Posted March 6, 2008 1. Do you see real managers complaining about last minute goals, no they just get on with it. 2. Your complaining about scoring too many goals, i dont think Paul Jewell would be doing this. 3. People on here get so stressed all the time, real managers can most of the time cope with this pressure. I can't think of anymore reasons, but there are more.

Macyst Posted March 6, 2008 Share Posted March 6, 2008 Most of the people here are also relatively young. They (and I) don't have enough experience and maturity to deal with high stress situations. Most people here also never experience or play in the professional football. No insight for dressing room experience. After all, it's just a game People play this game to enjoy it, not to become a real manager >.o Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Lambs Posted March 6, 2008 Share Posted March 6, 2008 I would be banned from the touch line in most games for shouting and swearing at my team, the opposition, the ref or his assistants.

Now it's true, you do not see them complain about scoring too many goals. But they do get stressed, there are quite a few managers out there that had to stop for a while on account of stress/cardiac problems and the likes. Now, most of us are not football managers but who's to say some of us will not become ones even if for really small clubs... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

DS Posted March 7, 2008 Share Posted March 7, 2008 So these are the reasons? I thought it was because we didnt have the right qualifications, experience and knowledge?

backpackant Posted March 7, 2008 Share Posted March 7, 2008 The game has changed so much since it's earlier incarnations, the biggest being the level of detail gamers are required to observe in order to be successful. People complain on here because they "want" the game to be something it isn't. Mostly children and late-teens, I suspect (without evidence), but we have bred a generation for whom "I want" is equal to "I am entitled". Therefore, if a feature such as needing to tweak your closing down tactics (8.0.2) or having to change the pace of the game in order to score one of your 50 chances (8.0.1) is not to their taste, it must be a bug and SI a bunch of cowboys who shouldn't be allowed near a tetris game. I blame X-factor. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

thenaturepig Posted March 8, 2008 Share Posted March 8, 2008 I have managerial experience, all be it at a reasonable low level... It wasn't the stress that made me quit, it was being "offered outside" by the dads of one of my players (he was 26, the player, not the dad). Like to see how Mourinho would cope if JT's old man came a knocking... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

r0x0r Posted March 8, 2008 Share Posted March 8, 2008 1. Do you see real managers complaining about last minute goals, no they just get on with it. Yes. All the bloody time. 2. Your complaining about scoring too many goals, i dont think Paul Jewell would be doing this. Mourinho claimed that winning by more than 2-3 goals was disrespectful. 3. People on here get so stressed all the time, real managers can most of the time cope with this pressure. Keegan? I can't think of anymore reasons, but there are more. You missed the key one. Most of us would be unable to pick out talented footballers, man manage them, get the tactics right and make a success of the job. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
