masticator Posted May 27, 2010 Share Posted May 27, 2010 ive just had an idea. not sure if its been mentioned before, but what about being knighted for your footballing achievements in game? or recieving an OBE, CBE or an MBE? i know its not crucial to the game but just think after a few successful years managing a club in england you get a top honor. seeing my name with a 'sir' before it would certainly be a proud achievement in the game. some examples- sir bobby robson sir alex ferguson martin o'neil OBE arsene wenger OBE ally mccoist MBE dario grade MBE craig brown CBE ron greenwood CBE Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blanchflower1 Posted May 28, 2010 Share Posted May 28, 2010 If I am not mistaken, to become a knight, one must set his nationality before the game as British, right?

barto123 Posted May 28, 2010 Share Posted May 28, 2010 This, I suppose: They dominate world football? Urgh. Go Australia! Bit dissapointing they lost both their finals... we typically have a decent track record in most sports when it comes to winning the big games. Also, whats the go with italy? do they have some sort of semi final hoodoo? they are pretty constant third placers. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he set to any other nationality, I don't think that particular manager qualifies! Also in at least New Zealand & Australia this is possible as well Of course this is not in the game currently, but yes you would be correct they have to be of one of those nationalities (I believe some other former British Colonies as well) to become a Sir.

dindle Posted May 29, 2010 Share Posted May 29, 2010 It's rare but it does happen. I was knighted in 2090 by King Wayne (great nephew of Prince Harry and Princess Cheryl Cole) after leading the North American Colonies to back-to-back World Cup and Northern Hemisphere Open Doubles. I was also given Order of the British Empire for services to zonal marking academia. Sadly, though, Comandante Haz of the Neo-Pictish empire invaded Britain and overthrew our system of monarchy, turning our green and pleasant land into a backwater hellhole of serfdom, and my Knighthood was nullified. Football was outlawed and happy slapping was made national sport by fiat. Sorry are we talking about Football Manager or Civilization here? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

charlo116 Posted May 29, 2010 Share Posted May 29, 2010 I have put a £150 bet on England to win the World Cup. I have successfully predicted every winner since 1994. No offence, i'm sure you know plenty about football, but i was 11 during the 2002 WC and i predicted Brazil would win it. Since '94 its been Brazil, France, Brazil, Italy. It's been 3 top class nations and only four countries have played in any of the finals since 1994, with Germany the only one of those four not to win it. Personally i can't see England making the final, i have to go with Spain to win it, but i will apologise to you if England do win. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
