IntakeRover Posted December 15, 2008 Author Share Posted December 15, 2008 Anyone had any luck in keeping rovers up? i can never seem to get it right and always go down, anyone got any tips on signings for them or what formation to play? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zacwhu Posted December 24, 2008 Share Posted December 24, 2008 The trick to stay up in the championship is to keep it tight at the back, sign Carlos Tordoya or look at the "Championship and League 1 defenders" thread. Sign Abreu (st) aswell he is free. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rocknrollpear Posted May 10, 2009 Share Posted May 10, 2009 Kept us up. Finished 20th. Sold a few players and got surprisingly good money for them. Best player and fans player of the year was Romanian right midfielder Stefan Barboianu. Plenty of assists and causes havoc on the right flank in most games. Also signed Oldham winger Chris Taylor for 200k plus John Spicer. He was a bargain too. Sunderland, Celtic and the two Sheffiled teams were sniffing around with 900k offers prior to start of 2nd season. Bought Mihael Kovacevic from Dundee United for 300k, and Andriy Yarmolenko from Dynamo Kiev for 90k. Sold Richie Wellens for 800k at Christmas as he wasnt playing that well and didnt fit my tactics. Sold Byfield for 100k and James Hayter for 500k. Best buys going into 2nd season were:- Stuart Taylor (gk) free transfer Marc Heider (st) free transfer Hernan Bernadello 280k Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
IntakeRover Posted May 26, 2009 Author Share Posted May 26, 2009 How and when did you sell Byfield? It wont ever let me offer him out first season because he's only recently joined. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trumdum Posted July 12, 2009 Share Posted July 12, 2009 I'm not playing with Doncaster although I find it a cool team. Zuculini will help you reach the playoffs, no doubt about it! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
IntakeRover Posted July 14, 2009 Author Share Posted July 14, 2009 I play as Donny a lot but i can never seem to get it right and sign the right players. Might give it another go though. Who did sell Gaz1808? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
