Not a bad player but hell, I just signed him for Bristol Rovers in the 2011 season and he went 42 appearances with 1 goal. I sold him to Exeter and he's got 0 goals in 19 appearances for them it looks like.

[crowsus]

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.

LOL my mate at work played against boyd with the school teams a few times and said basically the same thing. He was not impressed! Still looks like Boyds made a decent living by mastering his crude craft!

I played in the park with Alan Trouten of Airdrie. Nice chap and a good player but i never thought he'd make it pro! Bob Davidson (ex-Dundee) was also at my school, 3 years below me but he was already at Rangers youths and did look a player, my impression was he was a bit too cocky about it all tho. Was also a bit-part of a random footy tour with the Dunfermline school team who were Scottish champions at that time I think. I remember Craig Wilson (Dunfermline then Raith) and Greg Fleming (Gretna then Dunfermline) were there, maybe a few more have played at a good level but I cant mind all of the players who were there. Dull facts for youse there.

[crowsus]

I am actually in the game

Search for Cristiano Ronaldo

boo, that feeble idea with the same player has already been pulled out in this same thread. Please try harder!

[crowsus]

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.

surely he would have some value as firewood in the cold winter months?

[crowsus]

i was mates with fellow die hard ger scott brown at school. WRTP

haha would you go to Celtic for the money as well then? I believe you know him and i believe that hes a rangers fan but i cant believe he cares that much about gers that he did that. Can you confirm the tattoo rumour?

I think craig burley had/has a rangers tattoo as well?

[crowsus]

lol

I did her the night before, she's good isn't she..

nah too boney

[Fergie1983]

Armand One formerly partick thistle, cowdenbeath, raith rovers, tps (finland) livingston gates head (currently training with stranraer, my wifes cousins man!

[Kingfluxx]

[Braenn]

Karl Sheppard - Ex Everton now of Galway United, was 2 years ahead of me in school, in the same year as his younger brother.

Eoin Wearen - West Ham youth player - my cousin.

[Scott49]

I wouldn't say friend but I've served Robbie Savage(Derby), Kevin Keegan and Jon Harley (ex Chelsea, currently Watford) at Center Parcs. They weren't all out together obviously, this was three separate occasions.

[heathxxx]

A friend of mine plays for Loja, who are a non-playable (unless the get into the Segunda B4) Spanish side, playing in the 4th tier. I signed him for Granada CF, he was crap, so I free transferred him. When I mentioned it to him, he thought it was hilarious, having no idea he was in the game.

I've also signed my old maths teacher John Owens as a youth coach. He was formerly involved with Liverpool's youth academy, England Schoolboys manager, England non-league (or England "C") manager and assistant manager of Runcorn, at the time they were in the Conference.

[warkill]

I'm a Singaporean, and in Singapore, soccer isn't a big thing. So the players I know of are people whom I bet you guys never heard of.

Lutfi Abdul Razak (Woodlands Reserves)
He's pretty aweful in the game. He plays fm too, and told me he's gonna manage Man Utd and buy himself! HAHA! But the problem is he will probably never get work permit in the game, and definitely in real life...

Daniel Nwankwo (Was at Sporting Afrique in fm 07)
My sister's friend's boyfriend. He's a decent player in the local league though, but I don't know where he is now, probably at some lowly Nigerian clubs now

Indra Shahdan (Currently at SAFFC)
He's in my course in local polytechnics. Not that close to him, but played soccer with him before! When my course mates and I heard that he is in our course, we were like "WHAT???" He's the current Singapore national skipper, and arguably one of the best Striker in Singapore of this generation.

[CP Munk]

I'm Lou Macari's nephew, two of my cousins where in previous games

[shaneramone]

My mate's, mum's, brother's, friend's, cousin's, dad's, nephew's, dog's previous owner plays for tooting and mitcham.

[UnieeQ]

I grew up with Robert Stambolziev now playing at Panathinaikos

[fonchocp]

Ignacio Novas (Uruguay) became a receptionist, so as to say, in my local high school. I looked him up and he was on the game so ended up signing him on a free transfer for a 2nd tier side. He was crap tho, and left on a free.

I've also played against many of the newly promoted 18 year olds from my country who are in the game.

[skuff]

Used to play football with cody mcdonald who is now playing for norwich city.. His stats are nothing like he is in reality (stats are a lot worse than he actually is)
