Evilyoshi Posted January 15, 2011 Share Posted January 15, 2011 Beacuse im very bored atm, gunna answer all questions, sorry ;X, most are from FM10, first version I really played and havnt played much of FM11 yet for one reason or another. Have you ever sold a player for more than £120 million? No, biggest ever sales were Wolves's Steven fletcher to celtic and Sylvan Ebanks-blake to Aston Villa, both for 8M. What is the most obscure team you have ever managed? Wolverhampton Casuels, An english level 10 side, used superblademans (i think that was his name) super lvl 10 edit file in the editors hideaway (someone else has since taken over it since I think) to make them playable. Have you ever bought a player for more than £120 million? No, biggest ever buy was Buying Cesc Fabergas from Arsnal for around 55M playing as Man City. Have you ever sold a player and regretted it later on? No Have you ever sold a player, regretted it and then bought them back again? No Have you ever resigned as manager becasue of one result? resigned over two is my closeest , World Cup 2010 finals as England, lost opening Group game v New Zealand 1-0, drew second group game v African side Gabon 2-2, resigned after second game, despite still having a chance (albeit small) of still progressing. After resigning I watched managerless England win the final group game v USA like 4-1 and somehow progress. Then to get knocked out in the 2nd round/first knockout round v Germany. (2-2 AET, Eng lost on pens) Has your star striker ever gone a whole season without having a dry spell? Dont think so What was your biggest ever competitive victory? Arsenal 1-5 Wolves in the PREM league (As wolves ofc) Your biggest flop? (only real players) Jesus Gamez from Spainish side Malaga C.F, got for 12.5M, ether played really well or terribly every game, sadly more terrible peformances then godlike and the Fans seemed to hate him from the second I signed him. After just like 4 months at the club (wolves) he wanted to leave, ended up selling him to liverpool in the January window 6 months after joining for 9.5M (Yes a 3M loss) How many years was your longest FM career? U mean time at a club or total time in a save? 1st is FM10:first five seasons as wolves. 2nd is again FM10: To world cup 2022. have you ever gone unbeaten in a league season? No, not even close. Have you ever released a club legend on a free? Erm...Does Gary Neville as Man UTD qualify? closeest ever I think. Have you ever sold a club legend? No ave you ever reloaded because you thought you got cheated out of a win? hmmmm? hehe, yes in my early FM days, cuz of the good ol over 9000 CCCs, shots etc and the oppistion Goal keeper getting final match rating of 10.0 (First time I hadever seen a player get a 10.0 match rating and still only the one of two 10.0s ive ever seen to date)thing.

The Carnivorous Badger Posted January 16, 2011 Share Posted January 16, 2011 Have you ever sold a player for more than £120 million? No. My highest transfer fee receipt is about 5 million quid on FM11, I'm playing LLM. Last year on FM10 I sold a brace of Brazilians to Italy for 15 million each. What is the most obscure team you have ever managed? Gloucester City, Blyth Spartans, Fortaleza of Brazil, TNS, Boavista... your pick of those. Have you ever bought a player for more than £120 million? No. Never would either. My highest FM11 buy is about 3 million, and my highest ever is about 20 million for Aiden McGeady on CM 06. Have you ever sold a player and regretted it later on? ...since then ever transfer has a % of profit Have you ever sold a player, regretted it and then bought them back again? No. Have you ever resigned as manager becasue of one result? I have come close, only ever after a run of terrible results. Has your star striker ever gone a whole season without having a dry spell? Yes, Mauro Zarate or Figueroa (formerly of Liverpool, Uruguay) scored a ridiculous amount in CM06. What was your biggest ever competitive victory? About 8-1 against some Uruguayan minnows in the Copa Libertadores. Your biggest flop? Hard, but probably a useless french bloke I signed for 9.25m quid, and then gave up on the save because I spent all my cash on him. He was shocking. How many years was your longest FM career? 8 years as Lyon on CM08, 8 years as Real Madrid on Total Club Manager '03. I converted to FM in '09. have you ever gone unbeaten in a league season? No, but I've gone a few with only 5 loses or similar. Have you ever released a club legend on a free? Only a staff member. Have you ever sold a club legend? No. Have you ever reloaded because you thought you got cheated out of a win? In my CM days, I'm afraid, but not for about 4 years. Has your Goalkeeper ever scored straight from a goakick?

I was playing as Manchester United and on the last day of the season I was level on points with Chelsea but they had a better goal difference at the top. I played Fulham at home and they had City away. I beat Fulham 4-0 and I was watching the game in split mode so I could see their score as well. Chelsea took the lead early on but City soon hit back.
