LiverpoolSimplyTheBest Posted June 6, 2008 Share Posted June 6, 2008 Liverpool Fútbol Club, usually known simply as Liverpool, is an Uruguayan football club based in Montevideo. The club joined the first division for the first time in 1919. The name was taken after a geography class where the former members of the club were studying the ports of Great Britain, and they decided that "Liverpool" would sound good for a football team. It has been confirmed that they named the soccer team this way. For the 2005-06 season, the away kit changed to a new all red one, thus looking exactly like the English Liverpool football team. Liverpool plays home matches in Estadio Belvedere (Belvedere Stadium), formerly owned by the Montevideo Wanderers.Honours Liverpool have failed to win any domestic title. They are famously dubbed as the greatest team in the league never to win the title of champions. They have also never won either of the major cups, they have reached the final of the Torneo Apertura and liguilla, both in 1995 only to be beaten by Club Atlético Peñarol and Defensor Sporting respectively. Information shamelessly stolen from wikipedia. Anyway, to try and rekindle my interest in Football Manager I decided I would attempt a game with the Uruguayan Liverpool - Liverpool. Think I played as them on FM 2006, couldn't be bothered after a about 7 matches Will be playing a two player game with a mate, God knows what Uruguayan side he's going to be. Should be good though. Good luck to anyone else who tries it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

McNuggetâ„¢ Posted June 6, 2008 Share Posted June 6, 2008 110k aint too bad, sure you could knock up a few good players from the leagues in Uruguay. Good luck with it matey Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
PoopyPants Posted June 6, 2008 Share Posted June 6, 2008 Good luck LSTB Wouldn't be able to do it tbh, I'm no good without a couple of mil to spend Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
LiverpoolSimplyTheBest Posted June 6, 2008 Author Share Posted June 6, 2008 yeah I'm kinda struggling to discover some freebies/cheapchaps. mate chose Bella Vista, who are pretty similar in terms of quality. good thing is I'm hopefully gonna make a couple of mil from sales, then I may be able to put in some offers. whether or not a club of my stature will be able to attract any decent players is another matter. should be FUN.

arsenal_2111 Posted June 6, 2008 Share Posted June 6, 2008 Have a look in here- Harpenden Town thread They're only BSS but some of the players should do alright for you(Balde, Kosecki, Jurak, Prusak) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
LiverpoolSimplyTheBest Posted June 6, 2008 Author Share Posted June 6, 2008 in all honesty, the Blue Square South probably has more of a rep than the Uruguayan first division. but thx anyway. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
arsenal_2111 Posted June 6, 2008 Share Posted June 6, 2008 The Harpenden team is amateur. if players are willing to join amateur teams they will join anyone! The rep of the BSS is about 7 IIRC. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
LiverpoolSimplyTheBest Posted June 6, 2008 Author Share Posted June 6, 2008 fair enough. if I can be bothered I'll check to see if they're good enough first. don't want to be spending 5k on some crap BSS player, waste of valuable dosh Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
