Penalty that never was!!

i was managing Spurs, playing man utd. Defending well and counter-attacking when possible and imagine my joy when in the 61st minute luka modric gets brought down by gary neville for a penalty. the usual words at the bottom came up"luka modric step up....." then all of a sudden it goes blank and no mention of the penalty or that it actually happened. i checked the report, nothing, the stats again nothing. I am now dismayed And starting to get Annoyed, when in the 85th min tevez scores. Game goes off, disk goes out of window. Brilliant. Has this happened to anyone else?

And before you say, you dont need the disk to play, i had to throw something. it was that or the cat.

This made me smile

I could not care less about the penalty call but thanks God cat is saved.

As an animal friend I'm also glad to hear that the cat made it.

As for the penalty issue, I have already reported this problem so SI are aware of it. I wasn't as unlucky as you though since I still managed to win my game...

I hope you don't live at the top of a high rise bloock of flats, can just imagine some poor random passer by trying to explain to the a&e dpt how a copy of fm09 is embedded in their skull.

Better that than a cat embedded in their skull

The bit of commentary that goes,

' *PLAYER* Must Score!'

Then nothing. No mention of a save. miss. ball hiting players arse, nothing.

You still could have threw the cat.

You're friends with animals? Can you talk to them?

This has existed for the past few versions of FM and is very frustrating.

I have read this thread and it has made me laugh considerably!!

Being an animal lover and the owner of 2 kittens (the wife's idea.... i am now third in the list for love vouchers) i am also glad the cat made it too.

This forum is often has tales that warm the cockles of your heart on a cold winter's day.

Yes on both questions, can't you?

You still could have threw the cat.
