gillsminnow Posted January 13, 2009 Share Posted January 13, 2009 Mine is this, checking through players with no club on FM 2006 and finding a young Italian kid who had never had a club before. Brought him to my Gillingham side and watched him flourish into the one of the worlds best players. EDIT: thread title should be "any". Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AJRigg Posted January 13, 2009 Share Posted January 13, 2009 I've had that happen only once to me, Ronald Moonen oh how I miss you, I checked his PA some seasons later and it was 198! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
GillsMan Posted January 13, 2009 Share Posted January 13, 2009 My proudest moment was in the Championship play-off semi final a few seasons ago in my FM08 game when I lost the first leg away to Ipswich 2-0 and was 1-0 down at home in the second leg. 3-0 down on aggregate, I pulled it back to win 4-1 on the night, 4-3 overall, courtesy of a last ditch effort from Craig Udall, who is like Beckham in my game! The pretext to that is that I took over Gillingham a few years before when they were languishing in League One, and I made them even worse and we got relegated to League Two, since then we got better and I got promoted over a few seasons back to the Championship. I made Europe last season (lost in the UEFA Cup final) and finished last season in the Inter Toto Cup spot. So yeah, pretty proud of this career.

Rephlex Posted January 13, 2009 Share Posted January 13, 2009 My proudest moment so far probably has to be when Lionel Messi scored in the 115th minute to knock Italy out of the World Cup Final. I was absolutely bouncing when that went in. Best.Moment.Ever. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaptainPlanet Posted January 13, 2009 Share Posted January 13, 2009 Will never tire of watching man Utd fall into administration, get relegated and have to sell all their players. On my FM05 game Man Utd had actually dropped out of the playable leagues. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
4457 Posted January 13, 2009 Share Posted January 13, 2009 Had one or two that stand out. FM08 winning back-to-back UEFA Cups with Dinamo Kiev, and FM05 winning back-to-back Champions Leagues with, iirc, Middlesbrough and Celtic. Oh, and on FM07 reaching the Euro 2048 (iirc) final with Wales. That was a holiday game but I played through the Euro championships myself. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

CrashOverride Posted January 13, 2009 Share Posted January 13, 2009 For me it was the end of the seaon when I had won the CL for th 5th time in 7 seasons making my club the most sucessful in CL history and was honoured by having a stadium named after me. Thats what I call respect Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
sparkler17 Posted January 13, 2009 Share Posted January 13, 2009 Probably my first online game with a friend. We used his database, and he had been a little sneaky and edited all the best players in the game into his squad. I beat him 3 - 0 with Spurs. I have the screencap buried on Photobucket somewhere. Always brings a smile to my face when I see it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
rsk360 Posted January 13, 2009 Share Posted January 13, 2009 my proudest has to have been when my son scored his first ever goal in fm09 its in 2023 and it was prem fulham vs man utd o well it was a pen but we beat man utd thanks to that goal !

mbchuz Posted January 13, 2009 Share Posted January 13, 2009 Probably for me taking Lorca Deportiva from the depths of Spanish football to the Champions league quarter finals where we were beaten in the first leg by Inter Milan on CM99/00. Players of CM99/00 will remember Haruna Babangida and Salilou Lassissi who helped me get there. Unfortunately my save became corrupt after that first leg and I was, of course, destroyed. I think I still have the save game burnt onto a CD somewhere in the house in case I ever try to resurrect my most memorable, proudest and enjoyable FM career to date Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

small Mac Posted January 13, 2009 Share Posted January 13, 2009 I remember on FM07 taking the N.Ireland job as some of my best club players were from there. I guided them to the 2024 Euro championship semis with a big game against England. We were 1-0 down in the 60th minute when my centre back got sent off after giving away a penalty - game over. But my keeper saved and with 10 minutes left we grabbed an equiliser to take it to extra time. Then in the 120th minute my star striker nodded in the winner to send us to the final, couldn't believe it And then we lost to Spain in the final, but that's not the point Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

backpackant Posted January 13, 2009 Share Posted January 13, 2009 i take it you play him as a winger rather than a striker looking at his goals. My proudest moment was on 08, winning the Uefa cup with Leeds in 2016. I also won the CL with Leeds, but that was after extensive editing and starting them in the PL with a dream team, just to see how quickly ultimate success could happen.

IbrahimAliMaher Posted January 13, 2009 Share Posted January 13, 2009 Mine is this, checking through players with no club on FM 2006 and finding a young Italian kid who had never had a club before. Brought him to my Gillingham side and watched him flourish into the one of the worlds best players.EDIT: thread title should be "any". Wow that kid is seriously good, except for his awful determination (no tutoring in FM06?). I had something similar on CM0304 - I found an unattatched Egyptian striker (guess his name) who took my division 2 Wednesday side to top of the premiership. Once he began to fade I managed to replace him with an unattatched regen striker I found with awesome stats. After a year in my reserves I unleashed this 18 year old on the premiership and Europe and he tore defences to shreads, culminating in him scoring in my CL final victory.

Smithers Posted January 13, 2009 Share Posted January 13, 2009 FM 06 - when I was Oxford Utd and at the start of 1 season this lad came through my youth academy called Anthony Fuller. I nurtured him like a father and saw him destroy defences with his pace, finishing and composure. My proudest moment was when he was called up to the England squad and scored on his debut. Gutted I've lost that save-game; it was the best I've ever had on any FM. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
