The Lambs Posted September 30, 2008 Share Posted September 30, 2008 It is time for me to start a new game to keep me busy until FM09 is released. So I have decided to run a sign up. Lakshmi Narayan Mittal is the 5th richest man in the world and currently residing in Kensington Palace Gardens, London, UK. Having seen Luton Town go into administration and being deducted 30 points Lakshmi decides to step in and back the teams new creditors LT2020, he publicly announces that he intends to turn Luton into one of London's top teams. Backing his words with money, Luton town gets a massive revamp of the ground, its training facilities and its youth facilities. Several highly rated youngsters from around the world are brought into the youth team, some even show a promise as first team regulars, despite their tender age. Game back ground Luton will start the game on -30 points, a huge challenge to gain promotion lies ahead of them, but promotion is expected within 2 years. They will receive a healthy bank balance a sugar daddy status and Lakshmi will take over as chairman. The majority of their existing squad will be replaced with youth players created on this sign up, but some experienced older players will be signed on to tutor the younger players. The game will be run with most of the major leagues in Europe turned on. Huge database. I will be using the Weegie update. Sign up players will be given a PA of -10 and a CA of 80 Post your player format like this: First Name: Real names please, very silly names will be ignored) Second Name: Position: As many positions or as few positions as you wish (remember that the more positions you have the more abilities that count against your CA). Also look at what has gone before you, it is pointless you all creating strikers when I am only playing 2 at a time Height: D.O.B: I would prefer all players will start out at 16, but it is your choice. 1991 starts you at 16 City of birth: Real places only Nationality: Where ever you want, but EU is a preference Other Nationalities: Favourite Club(s): Disliked Club(s): Preferred foot: Choose your preferred foot, if you want to be able to use both feet, use points from your attributes below. Attributes: You have 140 points to spend on as many or as few attributes as you want. You can just assign 20 to seven abilities if you want an easy life or you can divide the points up between any abilities you want. Be as clever as you wish here. Remember that the game will reduce some of these abilities after the game starts. As the sign up goes on I will be asking regular posters if they wish to develop there own players training schedules or leave it to me, do they want to go on loan or stay at the club. I play pretty slowly, so a season will take me a week or more, but I will do a winter and summer update. I will start the game after I have enough players signed up to create a team. I can add extra players into the game after it has started, but only if you use names that are already in the game, but the first and second names can come from different sources.

The Lambs Posted September 30, 2008 Author Share Posted September 30, 2008 I was thinking of using Alan Shearer as a manager, but then it occurred to me that he probably would not go to a London Club. Any suggestions for an ex-England international who is not a manager already who I could use as my profile?

The Lambs Posted October 1, 2008 Author Share Posted October 1, 2008 ZJ, there are several other people who i am sure will create players, I see them on the other posts all the time. If I do get short of players I will give you all a shout. Blowcrapup, Gazza came to my mind as well, I think he will be fun to play. Maybe we should of gone for Barnet with a pub on each corner of the ground? Challenge changes Based on the data base checks I have run to make sure the players and team are ok: 1) I have had to lower the reputation of Luton to a mid table level, otherwise the management wants us to get promoted in the first season. The -30 points is not hard coded, so they base their assumptions on the old Reputation of 4000. The lowering in reputation will unsettle several of the existing players and make attracting staff a nightmare, so I will be signing some out of contract coaches and older players to the cause. Expect to be playing along side some old fading stars. 3) We ended up with a 198PA player in the test, shame it was not for real. 4) Expect some of us to be craptastic in the first few seasons, for example my guy for instance had a Mini Scout rating of 49, which is Sunday league football level. I will be keeping him in as a control player and leaving him as a free agent. Note There are still spaces left, so far we have one young star for each position, any cover would be done by "real" players at the moment. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will add them into the game as we go along. A great sight with some pug ugly faces is the NFL players site. Future Players, missed out on the start up? Well you can still be added in, I am limited to using names that are already in the data base, but that gives you a lot of combinations. I can add you in as new youth players each season.

The Lambs Posted October 2, 2008 Author Share Posted October 2, 2008 Let The Luton Revival Begin These are the words that echoed around the crowded press room as Chairman, billionaire industrialist, Lakshmi Narayan Mittal unveils his vision for the future of The Hatters. In fairness he cut an imposing figure, turned out immaculately in his pin stripe suit, still many of the gathered press could be heard to whisper questions about his qualifications to run a football team. No one there doubted that his financial backing could lead to great things, after all this is the man who holds two world records, the first is for owning the worlds most expensive house, a bargain at £70 million, the second being his daughters wedding, which set the record for the worlds most expensive at a princely sum of £60 million. If money equals power, then here is a man who could rival superman in a contest. Lakshmi spoke elegantly and effortlessly as he detailed his plans to challenge the FA in court over their separate 10 and 20 points penalties inflicted because of the previous owners misdealing. He spoke in some length about how the 20 point deduction punished the clubs current management for their honesty in alerting the FA to irregularities by the previous management. He then went on to reveal some of his new player coaches, a murmur went around the room as Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink entered the room, followed by Gianluca Pagliuca and finally, but not least, by Giovanni. Between them, these 3 player/coaches held 80 international caps. Lakshmi waited for the assembled press to quite down before he introduced his next surprise, new manager Paul Gascoigne. Gazza entered the room smiling broadly like an inane idiot, the press burst into an excited chatter of conversation, several of them were seen to chuckle. What little faith Lakshmi had generated in his ability to run a football club was crushed in that moment, he had placed an alcoholic joker in charge of his team. Gazza slurred his words several times during the interview and many expected that he had taken a drop of Dutch courage before facing the cameras. The headlines were not kind the next day. Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink Gianluca Pagliuca Giovanni Paul Gascoigne Next we will introduce our new star youth players gathered from around the world.
