[FM10] Regen which could be my son??

[Nicky Lead]

surely you could squeeze extra years by giving him a giggs type of roll within the squad!?

[FMAnderson]

Congratulations mate ,been playing this game for more than a decade but never been able to win a world cup myself lol.Great achievement.And there is a Hiroki Funayama in Italy haha.

yep thnx

[FMAnderson]

surely you could squeeze extra years by giving him a giggs type of roll within the squad!?

He wants a 4 yr deal does that make sense.. ? lol

[FMAnderson]

Should i give it to him .. ? Maybe 2 years ... Surely he cant play till he is 40..

[Chongtom]

Hes your son. You must!

[FMAnderson]

Hes your son. You must!

Then i shall .....

[aggressive minor]

Why did you strip him of the England captaincy? Sleeping with Caroll's wife!?

[PaUlHuNtInGtOnLuFcBoY]

Brian Mcbride for Scotland . They must be desperate if their resorting to his offspring to get them through competitions :L.

[mitjabarbic]

i reloaded 10 times and it didnt work..maybe i am just not old enough for a father yet

[FMAnderson]

Why did you strip him of the England captaincy? Sleeping with Caroll's wife!?

He got injured a while back and i gave carroll the captaincy and mohiddin had said he was not interested the next time i had to select a captain.

I would have wanted him to stay but he said he didnt want it .. ( for the team i spose)

[FMAnderson]

Brian Mcbride for Scotland . They must be desperate if their resorting to his offspring to get them through competitions :L.

I swear i have been chasing this mcbride guy since he was god knows how longggggg i think 20 .. HE has always rejected me ..

[FMAnderson]

Why did you strip him of the England captaincy? Sleeping with Caroll's wife!?

Carrols X mind u .. lol

[FMAnderson]

i reloaded 10 times and it didnt work..maybe i am just not old enough for a father yet

keep trying :P You will get one soon

[aderow]

im sure it'll work mitjabarbic good luck!!
who knows maybe you'll end up with twins

[mitjabarbic]

yea...i am now 43 years old in 2022 which means i still have couple more years to get a son..well probably i have one already he just doesnt play football yet..

i have a question..for the first season and a half i was at some dutch team and then i moved to england. My nationality is Dutch and second is Slovenian...
what would that mean for my son..which nationality would he get?
Dutch as first and then english as second? or slovenian?

[Faryds]

He didn't "born" yet and you are already thinking of his nationality, this is hilarious, hahaha.
Depends on where he was born, I suppose...

Great work FMAnderson! Give him a 4-y contract, he deserves it!

[John Smith]

i reloaded 10 times and it didnt work..maybe i am just not old enough for a father yet

10 times? Thought your limit was 100?

I got a 'son' when I was 32 in-game.

[mitjabarbic]

10 times? Thought your limit was 100?

i decided i will rather do it old fashioned way then increasing my chances by donating my sperm


when does the game decide to give a son...like at the start of the game it decides if it will happen or not or does it happen in the game?

[John Smith]

It's random at the league restart / regen date, which in England is 24th June. Chances are very, very low. And that's an understatement btw.

[Sr. Luria]

Yeah I had a regen in my copy of WWSM09 who had my last name. He was young but I was close to 50. I think he was in his late teens, early twenties by the time my disk stopped working.

[Cougar2010]

1 in 10,000 was quoted at some point.

I've never had a son and played many seasons on each version since the start fwiw.

[Relf]

This is a brilliant story. Its the first one i look for.

I'm 8 years into a save game and hoping for a similar story.

*One question - What's wrong with having daughters in the game? We sound like China - WE want Boys Boys Boys!!!






*Joke - don't sue me China

[FMAnderson]

This is my first son ever for me .. i wonder if there will ever give 2 sons..

[FMAnderson]

Next update tommorow .. Danny Signs new Contract , Utd Looking for New Manager ( Romours ) M Mohiddin linked .. lol ...

[FMAnderson]

I didn't even know that ..

[warkill]

WOah COOL!!! From a youth player to a national skipper, that's really cool!!! You're such a fantastic father

[FMAnderson]

Another season almost done .. Update tommorow
Danny is still playing well ...

I think he has 2 more years ...

[JMV]

Great thread indeed! I love reading all the updates.

I was lucky to get a son as well, on FM2009. My club was Centauros in the Colombian second tier after 4 years of Montrose in Scotland and two years of AZ in Holland. I promoted in my 2nd season to the first division and after the season update I noticed a young fellow with my last name in my youth team.

My last name is very uncommon and his nationality is Colombian/Dutch with me as his favorite personnel, so it was pretty obvious. Apparently the mom is Colombian because my son has very dark skin, and I'm whiter than white. (My nationality is set to Dutch/Canadian, as I immigrated to Canada irl).

This was just before FM2010 was released so I stopped playing this save game. If the chance of getting a son is really 1:10,000, I'll have to go back to that game and see if I can do the same to 'my boy' and make him a respected international football player.

I very much doubt that this will be possible though as the youth system of Centauros is really bad, so I expect him to have a low PA (I don't want to check it). His abilities are very poor and my coaches tell me he is not good enough for the Centauros team and I should drop him off the squad. .

I will check if I can get any screenshots uploaded, if anyone cares to see!

[mitjabarbic]

sure show us

you know what would be cool aswell...

if you named your self Darth Vader and you got a son named Luke....
that would be awesome
(sorry i after 20 years of my life i just watched Star Wars for the first time... )

[Patze]

Anderson,u made the best out of your son Great Work,he had big moments in his career and he was with a "small" PA fantastic in the Premier League.I wish i get a son,then i want to make him one of the best croatian Players of all time!

[Taytaz]

James Cole just appeared in my youth team with Carlton Cole as favourwd personal and Nigerian 2nd Nationality
son, more likely brothers?
anyway that's cool!

[FMAnderson]

The Game has gone on for 2 seasons and Danny Mohiddin is still playing well ..

[FMAnderson]

Last season , and he was 37 years old ... I dont know how long he will go on but 20 assists is brilliant .. and he scored in the euro finals ..

[FMAnderson]

Newcastle won the premiership by beatin chelsea in the last day ..................................... 18 times now ... catchin up to liverpool

Danny has still not showed signs of retiring

[FMAnderson]

surely you could squeeze extra years by giving him a giggs type of roll within the squad!?

:P I have well almost ..

[FMAnderson]

WOah COOL!!! From a youth player to a national skipper, that's really cool!!! You're such a fantastic father

Thank you brother .. im sure you will sacrifice your left wing for your son 2 :P

I hope you get one too , Its been a hell of a ride ..

[MaximusAlex]

I have noticed that if you keep playing a player he'll hold off on retirement until he's not picked anymore.

So a couple more seasons of continious games and by then he'll likey be doing an impression of Sylvinho when he came on as a sub against man utd. Bow legged and top speed of a mile an hour

I hope he has 5 years left :P .. lol ..

In this game players tend to stick more if they are getting played .. and they perform also for long into their 30s ..

Very true although I tend to get rid of anyone in a team if they are over 31 unless they are already retireing or go by the names of Gianluigi BUffon and Alessandro Del Piero.

[FMAnderson]

VAN DE SAR - 41 and 53 days

[FMAnderson]

i believe he can still play when he will be 40

You know the next world cup is in 2 years right lol

[BWSBethal]

Good work Anderson. Been lookin at this thread on the regs. His stats are really dissapearin now but keep it up. I NEED to know how this turns out. Will he become a manager, will HE have a son, will that son win a world cup with his Grandad as manager????

[MaximusAlex]

really .. what you think of these stats .. ( last season from a 33 year old )

this is my 33 year old striker ...

They are pretty impressive I'd say he has quite a while to go yet!

I'd love to know if there was a guarenteed way to get a regen kid. It's so rare! It will be nice to see his feedback once he is a coach on your team and ultimatly when he is a manager what he'll say when playing against you in the league!

[MaximusAlex]

You know the next world cup is in 2 years right lol

I wonder how old the oldest player in a world cup has been?

lol Well we shall c , .. im sure he will not cuss me - Like father like son ..

[MaximusAlex]

lol Well we shall c , .. im sure he will not cuss me - Like father like son ..

Did you start the game with international experience and if so has he beat your caps and goals for country yet?

[FMAnderson]

Did you start the game with international experience and if so has he beat your caps and goals for country yet?

Yep i did .. and the stats are as follows ..

Mohammed Mohiddin - 62 Caps and 20 Goals ..
Danny Mohiddin - 85 Caps and 10 Goals ..

[mitjabarbic]

lol Well we shall c , .. im sure he will not cuss me - Like father like son ..

you know what would be cool..that when he becomes manager you talk bad about him and you make like a huge unfriendly rivalry

[MaximusAlex]

Yep i did .. and the stats are as follows ..

Mohammed Mohiddin - 62 Caps and 20 Goals ..
Danny Mohiddin - 85 Caps and 10 Goals ..

Cool

[FMAnderson]

IT would be so funny imagine if he is interested in my players , how much discount would he get ..

He will be first choice ahead of every other manager..

Im sure if i had ronaldinho in 2049 and he wanted him for 5m i would accept ..

Also a rivalry has to happen one day .. Business is business ..

[mitjabarbic]

$$$$$$ before son

[Mr_Poopy_Pants]

I wonder how old the oldest player in a world cup has been?

irl I imagine it's prob roger milla. sure he was about 42 in USA94 and he scored. If could be arsed I'd look it up!

[MaximusAlex]

irl I imagine it's prob roger milla. sure he was about 42 in USA94 and he scored. If could be arsed I'd look it up!

Oldest player
42 years and 39 days, Roger Milla ( Cameroon, vs Russia, 1994).

There's a target FMAnderson

Oh my ... Danny is now 39 .. and the world cup is coming up so lets start there .. lol Confederations Cup is mine :P

[FMAnderson]

but then again.. as his father im sure ive lent him more money that anyone else..

[FMAnderson]

Unless he makes it to the next World Cup after that he will be 44 .. lol

[taylorsmen]

Is it possible for your son to have a son and become a footballer aswell,imagine not only having a son in the game but a grandson aswell

i'm in 2025 and keep looking for my potential off spring,nothing so far

[FMAnderson]

lol.. Imagine that, IT would be brilliant if my son could have a son ... i WILL SO SIGN HIM .. lol good luck man ..

[dufcrule2k9]

im guessing that the chances of that are like 1:1000000

[FMAnderson]

im guessing that the chances of that are like 1:1000000

Where is the local Ladbrokes..:P

[AMS]

I literally just got a son of my own!! yessss. thing is, i'm top of the prem and it says he'll only be good enough for the championship.

[Fabio MVP]

How come his Fav Club is Sunderland and not Newcastle?

[FMAnderson]

I just lost to Scotland in the Final of the World CUP and Danny did not even play , WHat is up with Rooney removing him from my squad .. i went on holiday for a minute............. JEEEEEEEEEEEZ

GUTTTTTED ...

I also need some help guys Danny has announced his retirement at the end of the season so he has 1 more year but i think i should offer him a job as an assistant or coach now .. what do people think ..?

[FMAnderson]

How come his Fav Club is Sunderland and not Newcastle?

Till today i have no idea..

[FMAnderson]

[FMAnderson]

I should not have gone on holiday gutted man ....

[FMAnderson]

I need info guys what should i do? .. Coach or assistant .. ????



I can offer him the following .. wat do people think ?

He managed a staggering 665 league games and more than 1000 appz for newcastle..

I will upload carrer stats tommorow

[FMAnderson]

lol he can also reconsider retirement.. lol

[IlikeJellybeans]

Well this thread is awesome!

[FMAnderson]

Well this thread is awesome!

thnx man .. its just gettin started trust me :P

[FMAnderson]

Im going to continue my UTD game until tomo i need feedback guys .. what do i do now Assitant or Coach ??

[medo24]

Surely the first thing would be to try and reach 100 caps and i would offer the assistant role of both Newcastle and England.

[FMAnderson]

Surely the first thing would be to try and reach 100 caps and i would offer the assistant role of both Newcastle and England.

Ronaldinho has been my assistant for more than 20 years .... Do i just remove him .. surely i dont..

how do you think he will do if i offer him england u21 manager job??

[aggressive minor]

Only won 4 caps from the age of 37-40? Would have expected 100 from him!

[FMAnderson]

Only won 4 caps from the age of 37-40? Would have expected 100 from him!

I know .. Rooney had a part to play in that .gutted. very disappointed and he got injured in the summer after the season ... , he just turned 40 2 months ago ....

so should i make him consider the retirement?

[aggressive minor]

Make him reconsider!

[FMAnderson]

ok ill do that..lol but when i get back on the game tomo .. i need a fresh head .. 1 year on him .... im sure

[aggressive minor]

Yeah when playing FM and your concentration isn't there, you can do some silly things at times!

[FMAnderson]

Yeah when playing FM and your concentration isn't there, you can do some silly things at times!

i blame facebook ..

[Taytaz]

I'd say offer him Assisstant Manager of England and just a normal coaching role at Newcastle
BUT not until 100caps

[xcalipur]

just wondering, will your son always appear in your youth team, or will he appear in other teams?

[John Smith]

How come his Fav Club is Sunderland and not Newcastle?

Because he went on loan to Sunderland early in his career and he did well, enjoyed his spell there.

Ronaldinho has been my assistant for more than 20 years .... Do i just remove him .. surely i dont..

how do you think he will do if i offer him england u21 manager job??

If you offer him a role as 'player / assistant manager', you do not need to sack Ronaldinho.

I would offer him England U21 manager jon and take him as player / assistant manager, then ask him to reconsider retirement.

[Cyril Washbrook]

I can offer him the following .. wat do people think ?

He has good motivating skills and tactical knowledge is decent (if not particularly remarkable), so maybe offer him one of the underage teams at the national level.

[duck my sick]

Can't wait for the next update. Brilliant thread!

[MaximusAlex]

Offer him Assistant manager of U21's and a coach role at Newcastle. when rolandinho retires offer assistant manager (if of course he hasn't been snapped up as a manager for another team which could be quite quickly)

[Nicky Lead]

how do you get all the proper competition names???

[M1K3]

Really enjoyed reading this thread. Been great following his career.

For people who have a son in the game (not in IRL obviously ), I'm interested about nationality. Say me I am English of Irish descent so have put my first nationality as English and second nationality as Irish. If I am managing a team in England and my son comes through the ranks, would he have second nationality as Irish also? Because I would love it if my son ended up playing for Ireland, probably more so than England.

Also if I do get a son in my game it'd be great if he was called Fredo. Therefore if he ever committed the cardinal sin of wanting to move to Liverpool, I could do this - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2DtbW_wUe8k

one of my fav movies... i think it also depends on who calls him first ... if he had 2 different nationalities then the first country to call him wins his services ...

[FMAnderson]

England U21 Manager and Coach at Newcastle perhaps ?

[Nicky Lead]

what u mean ?

like barclays premier league and stuff, but its okay i found how to do it!!

[FMAnderson]

Ok Danny is a bit cocky .. lol





His last year , will he play in the summer for england ? confed .. maybe ?

Im going to give him as many games till the summer .. i will offer him the u21 job at the end of the season.. i dont need nothing to confuse his head ..

[FMAnderson]

I think i should just offer him the england job ...

[FMAnderson]

I can get maybe 7 - 8 caps in a year for him so if this is his last year .. im going to make him player / assistant for England ... Give him only England Duty but subs appearances in the league .. his fitness is a bit funny .. lol

HE can get 20 games in the league im sure ...

Update later on tonight ..
