LLM - realistic at last?

Wow. The financial end of the game is very very difficult - finally!

Playing Stafford Rangers and £550kin the red in BSN. Despite an amazing start to the season with good progress in the cup and balance is still about the same. Now that is realism!

The biggest problem in the past was it was too easy to make money. It will be interesting to see how that pans out over a longer career game.

Have you played any grey teams yet ? because this was a issue in FM08

that sounds good, looks like im going to have to be a bit of a Dell Boy in the transfer market then.

Oh how I can't to start Dafuge's challenge

Agreed. Counting down the days to start off FM09 with that challenge, just like last year.

Yeah lower league has been improved alot.

it will be interesting to see how this works for the long term, hopefully we won't have several administrations per season due to lack of profitability

I have played 2. 1 I beat easily, the other took me to a replay although they came back from 2-0 down to take a 3-2 lead and were passing it around like Brazil. The replay showed them having full fitness if I remember correctly as well.

So maybe not fixed!

Actually there should be a few as there are in real life. Many is the time that clubs have been saved from Conference National relegation by clubs who would have stayed up or gone up from N/S going bust. Also, 3 league 2 clubs with negative points this season.

I do think though that FA Cup attendances (the qualifying rounds are so important to non-league finances) are still wrong, but have been harping about that for several versionws of the game!

SI said the fitness issue of grey teams SHOULD be fixed for the patch
