AndersSchm Posted April 7, 2008 Share Posted April 7, 2008 It is impossible if you really hate the club. I can't even play West Ham because they look like Aston Villa. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Benjao Harding Posted April 7, 2008 Share Posted April 7, 2008 I simply can't do it, I'm a Liverpool fan and to manage Everton or United simply cannot happen. Man U just got relegated from the prem in my 2016 save and its up there with istanbul as one of the happiest moment in my life. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Starr_Man5 Posted April 7, 2008 Share Posted April 7, 2008 I'm a Liverpool fan, I would manage any team except for: Man Utd, Everton, Chelsea. Though i'd have no problem managing Arsenal, despite them listed as Liverpools rivals I have a soft spot for the gunners.

Crayons Posted April 7, 2008 Share Posted April 7, 2008 I'm a QPR fan and I'd never manage Chelsea, but despite Brentford hating us I'd happily manage them. I'm not sure why, maybe it's the idea of taking over a smaller club and raising them up. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
LSF07 Posted April 7, 2008 Share Posted April 7, 2008 I'm a United fan and I've never managed City, Liverpool, Arsenal or Chelsea and know that I never will. Would like to have Leeds in there, but I did go them once on a game when they were challenging for the title, with the likes of Rio, Woodgate, Bowyer, Viduka, Smith etc. Their best side, think it was season before they went down. God I could never manage a team with Bowyer in now, let alone ever goin Leeds again. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
FlUoReScEnT aDoLeScEnT Posted April 7, 2008 Share Posted April 7, 2008 Being a Man City fan i couldnt manage Man u on the basis that i hate them, but i also couldn't manage Chelsea or Spurs, Because i don't like how chelsea stole SWP haha and spurs because for some reason i just find them rather annoying .. so it's Man U, Chelsea and Spurs for me!!

dap1987 Posted April 7, 2008 Share Posted April 7, 2008 Im a Man City fan and no way on this earth would i manager United, think id rather give up FM for life! or football than even consider managing them, i find it hard to even buy players that have any sort of link to them. I also hate Bolton with a passion too so couldnt manage them either! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Klimowicz Posted April 7, 2008 Share Posted April 7, 2008 i managed Liverpool in my Arsenal game (as a second manager), because they were relegated. I would never have done so otherwise, i have never (and will never) manage spurs, man utd, chelsea or west ham. i support arsenal. saying that, barcelona have been my second team since 1994, yet i've managed real madrid in every version of FM, to the point where i hated barcelona. i don't know why, but i started liking Madrid more than barca irl until i stopped playing that FM07 save. i'm still a barca fan vs madrid, but now i'm more into sevilla as a second team due to my fm08 sevilla game.

x42bn6 Posted April 7, 2008 Share Posted April 7, 2008 Liverpool have just set new records for largest negative goal difference in a season and lowest points tally.

cliff7197 Posted April 7, 2008 Share Posted April 7, 2008 As a Newcastle fan, I could never manage Sunderland. And despite them not being our rivals, I could never manage Man U either as I could never bring myself to help get success for a stadium full of glory hunting football tourists. That said, I don't manage Newcastle all that often either, I prefer to start at the bottom and either get promoted or get better job offers. Much more fun.

Mike7077 Posted April 8, 2008 Share Posted April 8, 2008 What happens in FM has no bearing on the clubs in real life, so I wouldn't waste my time taking down any that I don't like. To be honest, even if I could destroy a club, I wouldn't want to. No matter how much I might hate certain teams, seeing a club crash and burn gives me no pleasure.
