stevio11 Posted March 2, 2010 Share Posted March 2, 2010 I have started a new game with pompey and the first things I have done is to release all the loan players and put anyone on 20,000 or more on the transfer list. So far I have saved 150,000 pounds per week in wages which puts me under the limit but I have had to promote the reserve players for the moment. Lost my first friendly to LEEDS 3-0.

Hi, nice skin1 How did you get the header to be the teams colour all the way across? I downloaded the one you posted in the Neue 2 thread here, Is this the correct one? The header looks like this on my game: Only the left corner at the top is blue, the rest of the header is grey. Do you know how i can get the header to be like yours? Or could you send me a new link, if you don't mind. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
rimm! Posted March 2, 2010 Share Posted March 2, 2010 its a bit harsh giving all those debts a month each to pay back, it almost guarantees administration twice i would have thought! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SouthgatesRedWhiteArmy Posted March 2, 2010 Share Posted March 2, 2010 25 Mill in a month, 23 Mill in a month....Its a Sinking ship really, accumilate that with the rest they have to pay off in a month, its sinking faster than the titanic! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sergiu21 Posted March 2, 2010 Share Posted March 2, 2010 its a bit harsh giving all those debts a month each to pay back, it almost guarantees administration twice i would have thought!

Helpless Posted March 3, 2010 Share Posted March 3, 2010 I went Portsmouth just last week and played 3/4 a season and got to mid table security. But I am going to start again now with 10.3 it's a challenge and a half buy the looks of things. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ty Posted March 3, 2010 Share Posted March 3, 2010 As Pompeyboyz said, you can follow me and the rest of the guys at that thread But will also check back into this couple times a day! As you can see, a takeover is rather necissary if you are going to get anywhere.. because in 2012, in the space of 3 months.. you lose £50m, just like that. With the money you get, and the squad quality you already have, it is going to be hard to win anything to cover that massive loss Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ahh yeah, all you have to do is download the the Neue2 skin itself and add the Neue2 FULL folder into the skins section You don't want to put the downloaded 'Neue2' folder into there, just the 'Neue2_full'. Then load up FM as usual and instead of using the normal one, pick Neue2 full and yours should be the same Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

CMOZZA Posted March 3, 2010 Share Posted March 3, 2010 Well Avram is still with Pompey into November now so it looks like it may have just been speculation And thats just the badge that came with the pack I'm afraid, the villa one is up to date, so the important things for my save are fine I'll update it though, just for you Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
