Boskovic Posted November 1, 2007 Share Posted November 1, 2007 thanks rashidi and gutted The Art of Drowning dont give up tho, just think of it as a chance to learn from mistakes made in the previous game when you start a new one. ------------------------------------------- So i was offered a contract with one week remaining of my previous one. This one is for two years and they still hope for us to establish ourselves in the Blue Square North. Im on £200 a week which is nice for a part time wage. Ive been given my first ever transfer budget of £3k but i wont be spending that unless necerssary. ive lost two games this season but for some reason i cant stop drawing games. im 5th in the league and im still hopefull as my three previous seasons i had amazing runs after xmas so im hoping for another one which should propel me to the top of the league. i missed out on two players in the close season. one a sub striker and one a great center half. The striker was based on the popular thought that pace has a big influence in this version and the defender was a big John Terry esque center half. The name of the defender was Ashley Hodgkinson i think. He would have been perfect alongside my other center half Oliver Harker-Smith who has been a great buy for us. i seriously recommend signing both of them. They were both frees. I cant remember the strikers name. Anyway im hopefull of promotion this season and were touted as joint favorites with beaten play off finalists droylesdon.

Cookie16 Posted November 1, 2007 Share Posted November 1, 2007 Nick Murtagh Free Very good defender! Past 3 versions of the game i have brought him and he turns out wicked! Glad i found him again. ALL PLAYERS though have to be loaded Also really weird, was playing as fisher and got a 5 year contract that was weird, then my game has a bug so started again and now only a two year =( Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boskovic Posted November 1, 2007 Share Posted November 1, 2007 yeah you tend to get around 10 each year. i usually keep them till they get promoted to the reserve team. Then i transfer list them all and you occasionally get a couple of k for a few of them. I usually promote the guy that my assistant manager says is the pick of the buch to the first team.

Boskovic Posted November 1, 2007 Share Posted November 1, 2007 Im not a fan of the old sell all your players and buy 11 new ones routine as its a bit unrealistic but you can play how you like. ----------------------------------- ok, just finished my first season and have won the Blue Square North. Its been a good season with William Beckett and Nathen Jarmen both up for the player of the year award. Ive been there or there abouts all season and have felt really confident through out of winning the league. Our worst run was near the start of the season where we didnt win in 4 games but we drew two of them. Actually im not sure i have mentioned William Beckett before. William Beckett - AMCL/FC - English - Signed for free from some lower league club. He racked up over 20 assists for me this season playing on the left wing and isnt goal shy either. He is only young too. So for next season im gonna try and sign Ashley Hodgekinson (DC) who i missed out on at the start of the season to Hednesford who incidently are in the play offs and have the best defence in the league. I may look to sign a few back up players too. Other than that my board have said they will improve training facilities. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

So with Aylesburys rate of manager turnover we nearly always have an entirely new team every year anyway I've started again as Hucknall and won my 1st 5 games so far, signed a few aussies this time, 2 midfielders called maisano look class.

Powlay Posted November 2, 2007 Share Posted November 2, 2007 Season three. Blyth BSP. Some big names have come in. Carl Cort, Marc Bridge-Wilkinson, Sergio Torres, Neil Wainwright, Ndumbu-Nsungu, Magno Vieira, Rigoglioso, Brian Close, Ben Bowditch, ex Gooner Matthew Rose. Nearly got Michael Bridge also but he went to Darlo. Clearly got too many forwards but the idea is to try and keep everyone happy as long as i can then start the sales and make some cash. Got Hutchinson on loan from Boro along with his team mate Joe Bennett. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lower League Only Posted November 2, 2007 Share Posted November 2, 2007 Ok, a few of you are into the second season and beyond ( Blyth also look to be a favourite ) anyways... How on earth are you keeping your sanity with regards to teams comming in for your players ?? After a landslide BSN victory and glory in the Setana Shield ive not got a lot of hot property. Teams are comming in bidding for my first team players on an anoying basis. Ok fine, i sold of Hutch to Motherwell for 55k And then reluctantly parted with Atkin , to Kilmarnok for 85k And Foster went to Oxford for 20k. But im now 2 games into my second season, and clubs are anoying me bidding for my players. No option exists to say " Not for sale at any price " and i dont want to just decline all offers because, as shown with the above 3, I love a healthy bargin sale ! Anyways, this is the severity of it at the moment.....

Guest tom_moore85 Posted November 4, 2007 Share Posted November 4, 2007 Hi all, am currently exeter city. Currently riding high at the top of the table coming up to xmas, also beat huddersfield 4-0 in 1st round and Bristol Rovers 1-0 in 2nd round of FA cup both at home (was hoping for a good home draw but got watford away in the 3rd round) playing a 4-1-4-1 formation most games with midfielders bombing forward. I really recommend it. Got David Gray & Chris Basham RB/RM Matt Carbon in at CB Quality left winger called Millsom Scott Donnelly on the right Can't remember the name of my CB/DCM but he is lass, will get back to you (think its kamara) Carrs at CM who is 31 but is oustanding at this level.. also have stopforth and Maghoma in the middle. Upfront I have Dawkins who bangs in the goals. Have signed Sam Hewson who's worth 1.1m for the next window and Duran who looks immense. Gonna have far too many centre midfielders now not sure wat to do. Am desperately lookin for a goal keeper ANY SUGGESTIONS? have looked at an arsenal one annayon or sumthing but my scouts dont rate him.. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lucky i have Middlesborough as a parent i get some class from them if i need it. I sold my left back anticipating the arival of a new one but he shocked me and buggered off to Weymouth at the last minute. Now trying to sign a Cameroon U21 just the dreaded Work Permit.

Jesp Posted November 5, 2007 Share Posted November 5, 2007 *** The Ultimate Blue Square North/South Signings*** Just got through reading this tread, and I noticed a lot of above decent players listed... I found a lot of REAL gems that are way better than most ones listed here (Sorry I don't mean to brag, but its a fact) I signed a long list of players for Maidenhead, who started out as a really crappy newly promoted team in the Blue Square South. Several of these players are rated championship/premier league material. Of course I am winning nearly every match and I'm undefeated 2/3 through the first season. Here are my signings (all bougt for free or less than 5K £): Super signings: Michael Herbert - GK Julien Niel – GK Bastien Brugnans – DC Romain Sabathier - DR Medji Zemzemi – DRC Julien Addis - DL Travis Binnion - DL, MC Stéphane Odet DRC, DM Sabri Khelfa – DM Germano – DM Dominique Aulanier – AM RLC Marc Zanotti - AM LC Sébastien Macé – AMR Gaël Hiroux – AML, FC Arnaud Ribas – AML, FC Soufiane Koné - ST Longaray – ST Simon Church – ST Rogerio Moreira – ST Also great signings: Luke Daniels – GK Arnaud Dodard – GK Jeff Forsyth – DC Adam Bygrave – DC Eric Scalia - D/WBR Laurent Grimaud – D/WB RL Lee Paul Scroggins – MC James Ashmore – MC Kevin - MC (From Dinamo) Diego Bortolozzo – AMC Diego Cledy – AM RC, FC Joe Tillen – AML Léo – D/WBR (From Ipiranga) Michael Zaalman – AML Junior Dadson – AMR Gwenaël Guégan – ST Jonathan Pringle – ST Probably you need to load all English, French and Brazilian players to be able to find them all.

Lower League Only Posted November 7, 2007 Share Posted November 7, 2007 actually Re: Brazilians Have they got secondary nationalities ? So far ive only attempted to sign one player who needed a work permit. I was expecting him to arrive and be greyed out then i could loan him or w/e. But just like in FM06 i cant land the guy due to him being refused a work permit. Hes a 19 year old U21 capped player. Frankly its infuritating as im trying to land a left back and no bugger wants to come to me. Although i am gonna snap up Sam ( yes Sam ) Tillen as he was fired following a broken leg. Just waiting for him to get fit again so i can snap him up. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
