GavinZac Posted December 12, 2008 Share Posted December 12, 2008 "so dear, do you fancy your chances today? You know what I mean?" - We have a fantastic chance. - We have a chance if we perform well. - I don't want to comment on that. - I don't think we have much chance. - If you call me dear again, I'll scratch your eyes out. - No Comment. I'm fine. - Storm out and call best friend for support. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

baker.simon Posted December 12, 2008 Share Posted December 12, 2008 Imagine the scene though, the female manageress sends her team out, everythings ok, more than ok in fact. The lads come in at half time 4-0 up after completely dominating the oppo and things change. PMT has kicked in during the first half, and now she has a squad of men locked in a room with her while she tears strips of them, shouts at them, screams, cries, then says its her hormones, screams some more and proclaims all men are *******!

mimland Posted December 12, 2008 Share Posted December 12, 2008 There isn't much differance from what I have seen sofar. I'm just happy I can use my own name without it looking ridiculous when it is combined with he and him. As of the realism, I would say the same as Ozzy38 when it comes to who is managing what in this game there is no realism. If you want realism I guess next version should start out with 15 seasons FIFA09 where you play yourself on the field. And then some tests to get your coachbadges.

monkey99x Posted December 12, 2008 Share Posted December 12, 2008 my girlfriend tried it out coz she said she was sick of watching me play the game, and she loves to beat me at everything. she took over liverpool like me and the first thing she noticed was the wages are for her are lower than mine at the same stage of the game. i began at £44k, she got £35k. also, i asked for more transfer funds and the board gave m £15m. she did the same, at the same game stage, and she got told to deal with what she's got. she was not happy!

I think the differences might be explained by the previous footballing reputation you two set for your respective managers, rather than gender. It should be that she set herself as having a lower reputation than you did yourself. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
cynet Posted December 12, 2008 Share Posted December 12, 2008 female managers would never work the players would be trying there best to poke her one, well not unless shes a pig but even after 20 pints a pig can look like a princess. Even worst if she was on her period and having a **** week because of it would effect players morale. Back to the kitchens women :-)) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
sue_donym Posted December 12, 2008 Share Posted December 12, 2008 On a slight tangent, has anyone ever tried to make a case for including women's leagues as playable leagues in FM?

Would be an interesting variation. would be intresting to see. is the womans league professional? i thought arsenal ladies and maybe charlton were pro but thought the rest were amatuer. oh and a bit off topic but is Amy Rayner the referee on this game ? and in press conferences can you have a pop at her like newell did?

In USA its very popular and is beginning to follow suit over here! For instance, the womens FA cup final is now shown on BBC!
