Free Gift With FM11 - I Wear A Suit To Play Football Manager

I have been playing football manager for since 03/04 as a 8 year old kid and now im 16 and should be given an award for my dedication and efforts. I spend most my days complaining, screaming crying and often abusing the computer game and often give my deadly and evil stare towards miles jacobsens facebook page and thank him for my latest dissollowed goal due to the oppossing teams idiotic goalkeeper dropping his spearmint. I can agree the game is pretty realistic but i myself like to dress for the occasion like the megsons and fergusons of today, i like to wear a nice grey suit. FM10 came with a free tactics booklet but i myself was left empty handed, but really who needs to write their tactics down when it can be done via computer or to those lucky managers who have a thing called a brain. I really thing that Football Manager 2011 Should Come with a grey suit and tie so we can all be apart of the occasion. This is something im sure Sports Interactive Would Be glad to make available with our next gaming experience. It would also mean more stores could have football manager on sale. Wouldnt It be great if we could go to Debenhams and see ' Football Manager 2011 On Sale Now! Comes With Grey Suit! What Does Everybody Think? Great Idea?

No, not really.

:D :D

All I can really say to that idea.

But that would cost them a hell of alot of money to buy all those Grey suits wouldn't it?

Yeh I've been playing the game since the very first version in 1992.

I want free stuff. NOW!

I personally disagree.................

Should be black and pin striped ;-)

But that would cost them a hell of alot of money to buy all those Grey suits wouldn't it?

And how would they make sure every different player got the right size?

yeh good idea grey is abit boring

But I wouldn't mind if Grey suits came with a free copy of the game, not the other way around though?

well vic maybe they could sell the suit with the game instead. size by size.

Yeh I've been playing the game since the very first version in 1992.

I want free stuff. NOW!

Wait hold on - there was a version on the Spectrum in the 80's used to play too.

Defo want free stuff now.

I'm 34 inch waist, 42 inch chest, inside leg 32 inch. Jacket medium.

Thanks

Im more of a tracksuit manager myself.

if they dont like this idea we could always get FM11 undies

white linen suits (rolled up sleeves ofc) > grey suits.

also, i hope to god you're joking

if they dont like this idea we could always get FM11 undies

I dont wear any.

oh u go commando. maybe a fm11 tatoo for u.

What you should really get is FM Caps, for every version that you buy.

FM caps nice idea

:D

All I can really say to that idea.

That is being far far too generous

Also why Grey? Black looks so much better

It Looks Great.

Pretty sure if we gave away free suits there would not be a Football Manager 2012

Well, at least you would have a lot more time for FM13, so it could come out a lot less buggy unlike FM10.

There would have to be some Mancini style customisation though. A coloured scarf just to let the fans that you love the club you happen to be with at the time... until you move to the next club.

SI should instead opt to get something else on the cheap. Suits are expensive. I have a better solution that is both fashionable and comfortable, easier to get into than a suit also (or so it would seem... if you've ever had one, you'll know what I mean).

And not to mention, since FM has such a rabid following, it will give us all a nice cult-like family feeling (not in the Charles Manson way, either).

Behold:

The Sports Interactive Snuggie. It comes in the cool "Cult Scarlet Red" color as well.

The picture above shows what the future holds as the SI Snuggie catches on and it'll be flaunted on shows like Soccer AM. Just imagine that black guy (I think it's Al Roker? Maybe Barry Bonds) is Sol Campbell.

The Snuggie is great for family get togethers, reading, watching telly, lounging and of course... playing Football Manager.

Reserve your copy of the 10.3 patch and get one today. Message a mod for details (maybe).

Rofl @ the Snuggies.

Why Grey? .

good point black is much better or we could ask miles to knitt us all a hat.

terrible idea

good idea and you can just choose the size for you

I hope to god this kid's joking. I mean, i love FM as much as anyone but at 16 you need to have a life too. Go play in the real world, you're still young enough to get signed, some of us dont have that luxury!

But in all seriousness...i'd prefer the snuggie!

How about some kind of gift to those who can prove they've played over 100 seasons in Football Manager (not all the same version)?

Hmmm... There's probably a lot come to think of it.

The people in snuggies look like they're going to come to my door and make me join their cult

Snuggies would be a great idea for FM11/ FM10.03 patch.

If you were to get the FM Handheld version, would you have to wear the snuggie on the train/walking to the shops/ whatever you do when on the move outside?

At least you would be alerted to another FM player and can give the slight nod as you walk past, knowing that he/she is like you. A person lost in the real world, not able to make it as a professional manager/player.

FM is slowly moving towards a religion. On the next census, screw writing 'Jedi' just put 'FM'.

you know instead of wearing a Snuggie you could just wear a dressing gown backwards, same sort of thing.

i demand a FM11 bananahammock!!!! :D

I find dunking my head in the bath a good brain cleaner... but maybe that's just me.

I have been playing football manager for since 03/04 as a 8 year old kid and now im 16

Not one to be picky but I spy a hole in your maths...

By my reckoning 03/04 came out only 6 years (and maybe 3 months) ago although you seemed to have aged by 8 years in this time.

I have been playing ther game since CM2 1995/6 Italian Leagues edition so I would like 2 suits please.

This thread has really brightened up my day!

And how would they make sure every different player got the right size?

One size fits all. Soak it in hot water and stretch to desired size.

Or if it's too big put it in my washing machine. Guaranteed shrinkage.

And as if I’d trust the missus with my FM suit. Haha

This thread was brought to you by a Jason Manford stand-up routine and was posted before a live studio audience.

Funniest thing I ever read! Why have you got a suit at 16 wedding or court appearance?!
