daylight Posted December 12, 2008 Share Posted December 12, 2008 I found this very strange and a quite a bit annoying. I am sitting in 3rd place with QPR and in March I have to play 4 games in 1 week,I know 1 of the games was delayed because of my FA cup run but after just the 2nd game this week my players are shattered,I am pretty sure there is noway on earth that a team would be asked to play 4 games in 7 days,this really needs to be looked at,if not for my sake then for sure my poor players Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RFC_Fd Posted December 12, 2008 Share Posted December 12, 2008 Rangers were not far off that at the end of last season, but no they would never be asked to do that. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

KDR Posted December 13, 2008 Share Posted December 13, 2008 4 in 7 isn't doable. Aren't there rules that say there has to be a clear day between games IRL? I think it was Arsenal a few years back that had something like 5 games in 11 days in all comps, and Fergie is nearly always complaining about the fixture pile-up towards the end of the season. In lower leagues, I've known teams like Walsall end up with a Saturday - Tuesday - Saturday - Bank Holiday Monday - Wednesday - Saturday schedule before now, which would be 6 in 14.

Raven1015 Posted December 13, 2008 Share Posted December 13, 2008 Yeah, I'm playing as San Jose in the MLS and I especially enjoyed a league match on Sunday, immediately followed by a Superliga match on Monday. Wouldn't happen in real life. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheFuture'sMaroon! Posted December 13, 2008 Share Posted December 13, 2008 I've managed 4 in 8, immediately preceded by 3 in 7! LOL. That was with Inter. 7 in 15, then they gave me Monday to Friday off before getting beat by Arsenal in the CL final on the Saturday 2-3. Despite the five days off my players were still recovering! You have my sympathies mate. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Depends when the week starts, if the FA say the week starts on a sunday or monday! Week starts sunday you could have:- Sunday - League/Cup Tuesday - Europe/Cup/League Thursday - Europe/Cup/League Saturday - League/Cup Would be a bit harsh mind!

ACMilanBRA Posted December 13, 2008 Share Posted December 13, 2008 There was a bug in Copa Libertadores in fm2005 or 2006 i dont remember exactly, it had 2 games on the same day, and on different countries! It was so bugged that sometimes the player's positions changed, like a defender for some reason was in place of the striker, very funny though...

lil ole me Posted December 13, 2008 Share Posted December 13, 2008 I managed to get my BSP side through to the FA cup 4th round in one of my saves and towards the end of the season i had played 5 games fewer than most of the other sides in my league and was regularly playing 3-4 games every weeek for the last 2 months or so. This had a MASSIVE impact on my side which resulting in my team being defeated in the play offs as my squad had no stamina left!! After all, they are a semi professional side with players that work mon-fri in regular jobs and play 4 games per week.............c`mon ppl Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
