AcidBurn Posted March 18, 2010 Share Posted March 18, 2010 I am managing Everton and have had to watch the team I support slip into the Championship which was annoying. I got to the league cup final and had to face the team I love, I beat them 4-0 and now the FA Cup draw is. Everton Vs Bristol City/Norwich West Ham Vs Sunderland I hope that Sunderland do not get through, I am heavy favourite to get into the final and it would really annoy me to beat them in another final if they got through. For a split second I even thought of throwing the game as I have already won a league cup title. Does it annoy you beating the team you support in real life on a computer game?

mrmeee17 Posted March 18, 2010 Share Posted March 18, 2010 Not really but I am slightly biased towards the team I support though, in terms of transfers etc. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kenco Posted March 18, 2010 Share Posted March 18, 2010 Maybe you should manage them, then you wouldn't have to beat them. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
FMAnderson Posted March 18, 2010 Share Posted March 18, 2010 Not really but I am slightly biased towards the team I support though, in terms of transfers etc. I have to say i am totally biased towards United in the game ... I always sell them my players for cheap .. Never do business with UTD`s Rivals .. When i play United, Most of the time i usually play for a draw but if i have to win , i have to win... I dont feel bad its a challenge .. Also if it means helping United for other teams to lose then i will always do that ..... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AcidBurn Posted March 18, 2010 Author Share Posted March 18, 2010 Maybe you should manage them, then you wouldn't have to beat them. I usually do manage them just fancied a change. I guess it was just because it was a final and being a Sunderland fan we don't get into many of those. I didn't feel bad beating them in the league, although if I had secured the title and they needed a win I would lose to them. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
robbert_o154 Posted March 18, 2010 Share Posted March 18, 2010 Does it annoy you beating the team you support in real life on a computer game? Not in the slightest; in the game they're just another team standing in my way. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SeanNUFC Posted March 18, 2010 Share Posted March 18, 2010 Yeah i do feel abit weird when beating them, i know its only a game but for some reason still feel weird,lol. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paggioram Posted March 18, 2010 Share Posted March 18, 2010 No I never worry about beating the team I support. On the day I play them they are just another team that are stopping me reaching my goals. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AcidBurn Posted March 18, 2010 Author Share Posted March 18, 2010 Yeah i do feel abit weird when beating them, i know its only a game but for some reason still feel weird,lol. Maybe it is more weird than feeling bad, I suppose it's strange seeing the team you support lose by your own hand even in a computer game. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
deltablue Posted March 18, 2010 Share Posted March 18, 2010 When I haven't been them, I haven't been playing them either that much. I'd definitely feel regret but I wouldn't do anything differently. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mg539 Posted March 18, 2010 Share Posted March 18, 2010 I do look for how my own team is doing when not managing them but wouldn't think twice about beating them - its usually a completely different team to irl anyway... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roman Chevalier Posted March 18, 2010 Share Posted March 18, 2010 not bad, because....it's a game, infact i dont even think twice about it, but i don't like to see them down the table Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red Owl Posted March 18, 2010 Share Posted March 18, 2010 I was managing Chelsea, having won back-to-back titles, and dropped everything to rescue Sheffield Wednesday when Chris Waddle nearly had them relegated. 6 seasons later, and we're in the Champions League and fighting Man City for second place. That said, I am looking to move on this summer, but if Wednesday start to slide again, make no mistake, I'll come back. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slawbawn Posted March 18, 2010 Share Posted March 18, 2010 I change my tactics etc so that if I'm playing Swindon with say a Premiership club in a cup, I like to make sure I don't utterly thrash them. I play a weaker string team and play some players out of position. I do feel bad hammering them and I often end up managing them sometime later in the game Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuperSaints Posted March 18, 2010 Share Posted March 18, 2010 Yes, I support southampton and so when i beat them i fell really bad about it. I also never sign any of their start players even if its a 200 ca 200 pa regen. I also prefer to send my players there Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
MillwallLion08 Posted March 18, 2010 Share Posted March 18, 2010 Hmm, I hardly ever beat Millwall, but when I do, I do feel a bit bad . Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vangelis21 Posted March 18, 2010 Share Posted March 18, 2010 first of all i never manage any team other than my own in a country so it id rare to meet AEK when managing barcelona for example! when it happens i feel bad and i hope to win 4-3! but most of the times i manage my fav team Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barkermush Posted March 18, 2010 Share Posted March 18, 2010 Through out the match i go mad if i'm loosing or drawing. But then after the game if i win i feel bad, if i had to loose then i'd rather loose to Burnley. But i always go out for the win against my team.
