Matty Lines Posted November 4, 2008 Share Posted November 4, 2008 Ok I'm Norwich and I admit they are a bit ****, but when they play Lowestoft, Kings Lynn and Dereham I kind of expect better results than 1-0, 2-0 etc. In real life Norwich won against Lowestoft 12-0. Now before you start slating me that I'm just a **** manager, I've tried pretty much every tactic available, sold, bought players, but nothing seems to change. The best result I've had is 4-0 against Dereham - who aren't anywhere near the conference. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pope of Pot, King of Nothi Posted November 4, 2008 Share Posted November 4, 2008 I think they've toned down free-scoring games that we know from FM08... I think it's something they'll probably be looking at with a view of adjusting. I agree though that weaker teams should yield more goals, but I'm enjoying how much closer competitive games are Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
KUBI Posted November 4, 2008 Share Posted November 4, 2008 I kind of expect better results than 1-0, 2-0 etc. In real life Norwich won against Lowestoft 12-0. In real life they had another manager. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
cmontheloknow Posted November 4, 2008 Share Posted November 4, 2008 I won my first friendly 7-0 against a team that in reality in a cup match this season we only won 1-0. I guess these results can happen. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
roe Posted November 4, 2008 Share Posted November 4, 2008 I won all my friendlies against lower league teams to be honest. And you actually won these matches as well? Hardly ridiculous I think. To me, the 12-0 is more ridiculous whether is happened in real life or not is irrelevant. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
clarkeoh Posted November 5, 2008 Share Posted November 5, 2008 Ummm just to let you know mate norwich did lose to Dereham Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
MSCCG Posted November 5, 2008 Share Posted November 5, 2008 yeah I've been winning 4 or 5 nil occasionally. You can't expect teams to win against lower teams all the time by huge margins. I remember the Barcelona asia tour a couple of years back, they won every match only by 1 or 2, and they even drew once. Please do more research before making an unsupported claim.

The_Kreman Posted November 5, 2008 Share Posted November 5, 2008 Its a friendly, so your players won't be going out all guns blazing. 4-0 is a decent result for pre-season. Give them time and let them grow and they will get used to your tactics (if you stick with just one) and then they will blossom. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
