Tyke Tyson Posted December 24, 2008 Share Posted December 24, 2008 I get it tommorrow as well. Cant wait! My first game will be with Man City as they have loads of Cash! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jambo_Dave Posted December 24, 2008 Share Posted December 24, 2008 The game is pretty amazing, you definitely won't be disappointed with it. My first game was with St JOhnstone and then I done a 30 season career starting in australia with queensland roar and manging Zulte Waregem in belgium, Hull City, Croatia, Arminia Bielefeld, Stuttgart, Chelsea, Czech Republic, Italy and CLub Brugge all in the same career. It was epic. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
crickie Posted December 24, 2008 Share Posted December 24, 2008 i think its very very good. you will see small changes over time that make it overall a better game. Also i dont think it freezes as much as last year. Also the 2d pitch is pretty rad! My first team on it was luton for the obvious reason of -30 points. Also download my update off fmh info!!!!!!!

MJGB Posted December 24, 2008 Share Posted December 24, 2008 Couple of minor bugs which you would expect from any game and certainly nothing as bad as last year. New features are good and vast with little bits and pieces being found daily. Improved game and 2D pitch is great. Unlike the rest, I've had a flawless game so far! Enjoy playing it tomorrow I'll be on COD : WaW and Gears 2! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
scottc18 Posted December 24, 2008 Share Posted December 24, 2008 My first save was with betis winning la liga after a couple of seasons,you wont be disapointed with it best one so far.

MiCkEyMcMuLLaN Posted December 24, 2008 Share Posted December 24, 2008 After my arsenal game I will probably give luton a go. I tried it with luton in the pc version and just missed staying up got relegated by three points. I would of had a play off place without the points deduction. In the pc version i found it really hard to sign players for luton as you have no money and are over your wage budget is it like this in the psp aswell?

Saint Matty Posted December 25, 2008 Share Posted December 25, 2008 Will do! Went crazy about getting Ronaldo on a free (9.25k wage), but turns out he's not been as good as hoped.. 1 goal in 8, 6.62 rating.. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
O\'Hara_fan Posted December 25, 2008 Share Posted December 25, 2008 Got the game also, wondering what this trouble with the scoring is, won one of my first games 5-0. Managed to sign, Crouch, McFadden, Wilshire (who then went on to score against Arsenal ) and Martin Petrov. Looking good so far. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saint Matty Posted December 25, 2008 Share Posted December 25, 2008 Yeah I signed Wilshere, £2,500,000. Just approaching the end of February, first season, managed to tempt Owen into joining me on a Bosman, yet I'm 16th in the Championship! Also managed to get Fred & Ben Foster on bosmans.

PJ Bluenose 4 Ever Posted December 25, 2008 Author Share Posted December 25, 2008 On your Spurs team O'Hara, how much did you sign McFadden for and if you play him where do u play him and is he any good? :) I got the game today my first impression are very good with still alot of the game to see. I'm not a fan of the 2D pitch to be honest, not the best. I do also find it hard to hit the back of the net Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saint Matty Posted December 25, 2008 Share Posted December 25, 2008 Oh seriously Ronaldo, he is so shocking, loaned him out for the season to Carlisle. B. Foster R. Skacel - L. James - W. Thomas - M. Svensson M. Schneiderlin A. Lallana - Mohammed Kallon J. Wilshere Fred - M. Owen Schneiderlin would be a very good buy for a Championship side, 18 year old French DMC.

LSD Posted December 25, 2008 Share Posted December 25, 2008 Turns out it was a bluff and she had got FMH2009 after all... Although, she wrapped it up and put it in a box which, in a way, was very cruel!! Ah, well! Got the game, I think it's fantastic... The skins are brilliant and the game is a big improvement from last year. Well done SI! I can't see the problems people are having with scoring... All I've changed is from normal style of play to attacking and I'm getting 3s and 4s all over the shop!! Fantastic! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not doing too badly, chopping and changing between places at the top end of the BSP but I never thought we'd win it so, as it stands, a Play-off place is a bonus!

O\'Hara_fan Posted December 25, 2008 Share Posted December 25, 2008 Nasty, out of the league cup to Fulham with a 116 and 119 minute goals by Bullard and Zamora. After a great start, sliding down the league. Man City are walking the league 32 points from a possible 36, followed by Chelsea, Blackburn and Sunderland. Arsenal 5th, us 8th, Man U 9th and Liverpool 12th. However we have several games in hand due to Man U's Super Cup game. Alex Ferguson and Rafa Benitez have been sacked, as was Bernd Schuister at Real, who was, replaced by Juande Ramos. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saint Matty Posted December 25, 2008 Share Posted December 25, 2008 Turns out Ronaldo's loan was 3 months, let's see how he did! Played : 9 Goals : 0 Assists : 1 yeah great.. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
O\'Hara_fan Posted December 26, 2008 Share Posted December 26, 2008 Matty- What was his average raiting? My season has all gone to pot, in March, we were 2nd in the league, in the UEFA Cup and FA Cup Semi Finals. Now, May time, 6th, but all this league games played is confuggling. Chelsea at the top have played 37, Man City in 2nd have played 34, we have played 34, Arsenal, above us, have played 36. If we win all our remaining games, we could realistically get fourth. Who knows? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
LSD Posted December 26, 2008 Share Posted December 26, 2008 Finished my first season! Not bad for a first go... As Mansfield, I finished fourth in the BSP only to lose to a 92nd minute goal in the Play-off Final against Oxford. I was Runner-up in the Setanta Shield also to a last minute goal against a Welsh team which made the defeat even more bitter, (I really hate that channel...!). Got to the third round of The FA Cup losing, what I think is a respectable score, 2-0 to Portsmouth (who went on to retain the Cup!) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
O\'Hara_fan Posted December 26, 2008 Share Posted December 26, 2008 Unlucky LSD. I realised that we had went on a 11 game not winning streak, which ended on the last game with a 2-0 victory over Stoke. We finished 6th, level on points with Arsenal, but they had better goal difference. Man City won the league, but Man U beat them in the FA Cup on pens. Our best player was Roman Pavlychenko, but top scorer was Peter Crouch. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
LSD Posted December 26, 2008 Share Posted December 26, 2008 Even though I was disappointed with losing two finals, I never expected to be winning anything and definitely not challenging for auto-promo!

PJ Bluenose 4 Ever Posted December 26, 2008 Author Share Posted December 26, 2008 On my Birmingham team I decided to see if Matty was right about Ronaldo so I signed, former World Cup winner Ronaldo.

O\'Hara_fan Posted December 26, 2008 Share Posted December 26, 2008 On my game, Ronaldo signed for Cagliari, played 16 times, and scored an almighty 1 goal. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saint Matty Posted December 26, 2008 Share Posted December 26, 2008 Ha, I still can't sell Ronaldo, keep loaning him out to teams like Carlisle for 3 month. Another dissapointing season, finished 18th, signed Fraizer Campbell as a backup striker now though, board expecting another difficult season.

O\'Hara_fan Posted December 26, 2008 Share Posted December 26, 2008 Had a woeful start to the season, after 5 games, down in 19th. After 11 games, 6th. Fightback started with a 3-2 win over Newcastle. But out of the UEFA Cup Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
