I knew my mate was at a professional club but i didn't think he'd be in the game.I looked him up for curiosity and he was there.
Anyone else's family,friends or themselves in the game!

My mate is at Rugby Town but i believe you have to use a large databse to find him. David Kolodynski is his name.
A friend of mine was in West Ham's youth squad in CM00/01
Yes im in the game
Daniel Fritz. Rĝdovre Boldkulb in Denmark
I used to be in the previous versions playing for Avarta with my cousine Thomas Karlsson.
When i looked at the personality, my favorite personality was himdon't know how they got that info
I don't play serious anymore but my stats are still there
my mates brother plays for soton kayne mclaggon
I knew of a few people playing for local teams in previous versions. It was always nice to sign them, even if just for show![]()
two of my mates r in...jason kennedy for rochdale(previously at boro and darlo) and neal bishop for notts county (previously scarboro and barnet)
My Mrs's brother playes for Sheff Wednesday...his Name is Mark Beevers and seemes a decent player in the game...wont sign for Barnsley though~(gutted!!)
im in the game! i play semi pro and was at sheffield wednesday in 2000 got dumped by them, im a free agent, Daniel Oldfield.
my friend plays for falkirk and has been in for the last few games, he gets better every game but is still not worth signing lol he got on against celtic last week.
5 seasons into my save and I took over the job at Oldham, their star midfield player is Conor Henderson who is currently (in real life) trying to break through the talented youth team at Arsenal into the first team - He is my ex girlfriends nephew and I used to play football with him when he was 6 or 7. In fact I taught him how to play.....haha - He's running the show in Division 2 for me
My mates cousin is in the game, Shay Given.
2 of my cousins were in FM09 if Irish league was loaded but havent checked this year.
My mate is at Kilmarnock on the game, Graeme Owens, he is a winger. Used to be at Boro. He looks average for a lower premiership side.
In the game there is a few local lads in the game from my town, good on them![]()
I know a few of the Hibs U19's and Hearts U19s
I know 3 players in real life that are in the game, Jody morris, Courtney Pitt and Clinton Morrison.
My mates younger brother plays for Man Utd, Oli Norwood but i think it's his full name on the game
'Oliver Norwood' He's been on the past few FM's.
He actually looks like a good promsing player on Fm10, Nice to see some one from Burnley looking good
Edit: Of course there is Jay Rodriguez who is from Burnley but i don't know him
I knew a few youth team players on old CM/FM's but they wern't very good.
My mate Crossley, He his still on the game and as been on it since FM07 i think.
He was a goalkeeper for Burnley a couple of year back and his still on the game as a free agent.
Played sunday league football with him for about 4 years untill he left at the end of last season.
He also played for a Saturday team for a couple of years, Read or somthing.
He played in defense for our Sunday team haha, Used to always go out with him at weekends before he left,
Thats probably why he could'nt find another team lol, Very sound lad though.

Know quite a few lads in youth teams.
a couple of guys i went to school with are on it with cambridge and ebbsfleet
Got a mate at Stocksbridge Park Steels so they're well down the pecking order. Oh, and one in the Man Utd first team. He's in there...even on a small database.
Know Niall McGinn for Celtic so signed him for my Barca team, play him in some La Liga games instead of Messi
i used to work with a few lads who played semi-pro a few years ago in northern ireland but they dont play nomore
My mates cousin, Steven McDougall
Calum Flanagan for Villa.
My brother, Charlie Elsworth.
Stephen Dawson at Bury, Keith Treacy at Blackburn
My Cousin's son is at West Ham - Daniel Kearns
My brother is at Real Madrid, he is called Cristiano![]()
Went to school with Rhys Williams at Middlesborough now.
Chris Marsden is my wife.
Used to work and play football with an Irish lad called Graham Brown, still good mates with him he's not a FM 'gamer' but knew from a few of his other mates that he was in the database. He was shocked to find that in FM08 when I pointed out his last name incorrectly had a 'e' on the end, that he was born in Dublin and was still playing for a team he left 2 years earlier ! Think he is no longer in the database for FM10, probably due to his love of McDonalds and Indonesian women...........
My mate's mate is on the game. Jack Werndly who plays for West Ham. Signed him for united on the demo and scored 3 goals in 7 friendlies.
My friends dad is in the game, athough not a player....im sure most people know Mr John Robertson![]()
My mate stephen reynolds is in the game, St Johnstone as a forward![]()
I know someone here who's in the game.
Another friend I know was in FM07 too. Used to sign him regularly.
My Dad's friends son was at Atletico Madrid C in FM08, is now in the regional leagues in Spain, but could soon make the step from Zabal to their parent club Linense in the Tercera.
My Godparents nephew is Caleb Folan.
I kind of know Ian Cox (Ex Gillingham - Trinidad & Tobago). My sister was mates with his daughter.
My mate steven Davis of Rangers and Northern Ireland. A ffew guys I know aswell who play for my local side Ballymena Utd are in the game
I know the reserve keeper at Crawley Town, George Ellis is his name.
i used to live above a kaiserslautern reserve striker
Went to school with a guy who was at grimsby a few years back in the under 18s then as a free agent, he wasnt in FM08 tho
used to hang about with matthew mainwering at stockport
Chris Basham (Bolton) was a few years above me in my secondary school and lived in my street.
Jakey Robinson @ The Mighty Shrews !
Lee Barney@ Maidenhead
Daniel Bailey@ QPR
Sam Togwell@ Scunthorpe.
My best mate plays for Real Madrid on the game, his name is Cristiano Ronaldo. Any of you guys know him?
I also know the whole Sheffield Wednesday team, manager and chairman.
Went to primary and secondary school with Kris Boyd of Rangers, he still plays exactly the same way now as he did then, stood in the 18 yard box and screamed to be passed to.
my former housemate went to school with Theo Walcott.
that's the closest thing i have to an FM claim to fame!![]()
boydy was never at skool!!
I know michael brough and tom curtis and once had a kickabout with aiden mcgeady a couple of years ago.
Some people's humour here is so appalling.
I knoq quite a few players from the Welsh Leagues:
Stephen Evans
Wayne Hatton
Lloyd Stone
Paul Michael
Lee Brown
Roger Freestone
Andrew Delve
Tom Davies
Gareth Knott
Matthew Prosser
Lawrence Davies
Andrew Hughes
Bought them all for my Caersws side on 09.
So anyone in the game themselves?
A mate of mine was in the game a few years back, I signed him and he went on to become an England regular after about 4 yrs. Which was pretty funny because IRL he quit the following year to follow a different career path.
I know virtually the entire Coleraine (Northern Ireland Premiership) team. But anyone who lives here in Coleraine does, not much of a claim to fame, though it is still odd looking through their profiles on FM10 for some reason![]()
I know Beckham's wife, shagged her the other night.
My mates sisters, uncles, brothers, half cousin twice removed knows a couple players!![]()
A guy I know from high school is still in the game Michael Cross but I don't think he plays for Fremantle Spirit. Two other guys I also knew from school were in previous versions of Football Manager/Championship Manager.
Used to be friends with Luke Garbutt, but we fell out when he left Leeds for Everton. Also friends with a few Harrogate Town players from when I used to be there. Don't think I was ever on FM though. Sort of know Sanchez Payne, a Leeds youth player, very promising one too.
Two mates of mine appear in the game. Rob Burch at Lincoln City and Martin Cranie who plays for Coventry City.
They were 2 years above me but I went to the same high school as Micah Richards (Man City) and Seb Hines (Middlesborough). Never spoke to Micah but I was friends with his brother, I spoke to Seb regularly as he used live on the same estate as me and I had a kick around with him once. I also used to play for the same team and was good friends with Jonny Webb (Leeds) and Liam Ormsby (Harrogate Town FM09) I don't think Liam is in the game this year though.
I wonder if any pro's take over teams they play for and pick themselves regardless of their stats!
Jacob Butterfield - Barnsley (Plays for my 5aside team in summer)
Chris Brandon - Bradford - Played alongside him at Sunday League
Lee Elam - Northwich Victoria
Nicky Summerbee - Retired - Once threw a drink over him
Leeds Physio - Harvey Sharman
Adrian Boothroyd
Dan Codman
Elliot Kebbie (Not sure if he is in but he cost Man United 1 million from leeds in the summer, he is 14)
my mate whos plays for oldham called djeny bembo leta is in the games, ive played with him before he signed for oldham and hes class. Don't know about on the game though!
Have a friend who used to play in derby youth team so knows people like Tom Huddlestone.. however only two I have ever met is Karl Hawley (best friends cousin) and a mate played for a non league team, all be it in there reserves but was on the game a few years back![]()
I had a mate who had to retire through injury at the age of 18, even played for ireland u-16's aswell. He now coaches the stoke u-8's.
But for some reason he is still on the game on a free at the start - adam kirkpatrick
Met Hermann Hreidarsson a few times.
My Uncle used to play for Charlton, Torquay and Bournemouth, (David Stocks - not on FM but on Wikipedia if that helps) so had a few bbqs at his house that have had kickabouts with a few former players and 1 former Wales international - Andy Jones (he had 6 caps).

My cousin used to play for Hartlepool United, Michael Maidens. Unfortunately he died in a car accident so is no longer on the DB, but any Hartlepool fans will know he was a quality player.
i'm in the game.... steven gerrard i think i play for liverpool
i'm currently out injured though
pray for me
Well , i know the whole Blackpool FC squad .. out in town with them sunday nights most weeks . there an immature bunch , evvo being the worst
My best friend is good mates with Denis Behan of Cork City, and his girlfriend used to be a neighbour of Shane Long of Reading (before he went professional).
My friend called Danny Mills playing for Peterborough
My mate plays for Leek Town so, to answer the question, no. They've been in the Ryman league for about 68 years.
I know Danny Spiller (former Gillingham and Millwall) and now at Dag & Red. I've asked him about FM but he says he doesn't play...and I haven't signed him yet due to doing a West Ham game. I'd be tempted to when I do a lower league game tho.
You may know my brother Ronaldinho, or half cousin Zezinho
But really, when you have Level 9 loaded, I have a mate that plays for Wisbech Townwho coincidentally use my football teams (who I play for football) pitch while there's is being built (as ours is floodlight and hence Wisbech start with 300k debt). Maybe in a couple years time, I will be on FM
DOUBT IT!
Not really a mate, but I knew Snachez Watt (went to school with him), Arsenal Reserves but has played and scored in the Carling Cup this season.
Darren freeman former nottm forest, and now at shamrock rovers......and andy reid sunderland
A mate of mine a cousin of Ricardo Queresma... not gonna sign him though :P
There's a washed up ex-pro who works as part of the QA team. He's got a bit of timber though, so I wouldn't sign him.
