Luton Town Posted June 13, 2010 Share Posted June 13, 2010 So what are you doing while playing fm and does it effect how your team does. For me i play while playing on the xbox and i think that it effects how my team does Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
safcrhys Posted June 13, 2010 Share Posted June 13, 2010 If I'm playing FM I will usually have my Xbox on at the same time playing Fifa or CoD, just because I get bored easily, especially during long loading screens such as after the 3rd round of the FA Cup.

brambleten Posted June 13, 2010 Share Posted June 13, 2010 I just surf the internet or read a book. always have my war music on though. Playing as England, I only lost one game in between the start of the game and leaving after Euro 2012, and that was the only time i didnt have Pendulum playing. When i went 2 goals down against Portugal in the first game of the Euros, i turned Pendulum on and we won 3-2. Its superstition, but its staying Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
EddBundyIUAR Posted June 13, 2010 Share Posted June 13, 2010 normally i listen to the ipod whilst playing ive found myself going out of the room during penalty shoot-outs though and it seems to be the only time my team win them Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kenco Posted June 13, 2010 Share Posted June 13, 2010 I watch TV at the same time. Great now the World Cup is on, I've watched 7 of the 8 games whilst playing FM. No FM during England v USA though because I was at the pub for that obviously. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

2000AD Posted June 13, 2010 Share Posted June 13, 2010 I run FM10 in windowed mode and do other stuff, normally surfing web or watching DVDs. Has occasionaly led to me missing making a substitution if I've focused on the film/program I'm watching. I once tried an ultimate multitask of playing FM10, grind some rep on World of Warcraft and watch Top Gear on iPlayer at the same time, ended up making my head hurt.

StevenChap Posted June 13, 2010 Share Posted June 13, 2010 I browse websites and listen to music mostly and then casually watch late night television (not porn) as in some of the weird crap they have on british tele like right now. If you watch BBC HD they have a show on a disease called Noma (google it) its effin scary. But back on topic, Im just a chiller while I manage Chelsea Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
DirtyACE Posted June 14, 2010 Share Posted June 14, 2010 I run FM in windowed mode as well. Sometimes I'll have music playing through Winamp or have SkySports stream going in background. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Netm Posted June 14, 2010 Share Posted June 14, 2010 I have last.fm on and surf the internet, I have a 23" monitor so I split it in half, half the screen in FM, the second is the internet browser, though the bad thing is I sometimes get distracted by my surfing during matches.

roykela Posted June 14, 2010 Share Posted June 14, 2010 I listen to music, browsing the net and chat with friends and family on msn. Nice having 2 screens.

dontask Posted June 14, 2010 Share Posted June 14, 2010 ok time to confess, i listen to music on my other laptop. however events on fm dictate what i listen to.... start of season = start me up by the rolling stones losing 3 games in a row = things can only get better by d:ream before a big game or cup final= final countdown by europe a shock victory over a much bigger team= aint no mountain high enough by the supremes a cup or league title= the best by tina turner or we are the champions by queen losing in a cup= dont dream its over by crowded house. yes iam very sad lol Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

StormenDK Posted June 15, 2010 Share Posted June 15, 2010 While a match is playing, I am either praying for some miracle, or sitting with my face in my hands, sobbing: "why me, why me, why me", or screaming at the players on the screen. Between matches I am either praying for a good result in the coming match, sitting with my face in my hands sobbing: "Why me, why me, why me", or screaming at the players and threatening to sell them wholesale.
