Celtic_1967 Posted February 8, 2011 Share Posted February 8, 2011 You'll be coughing the title to me (or at least some points) tonight. Sorry about the missed sessions but on Sunday night I forgot (I thought we were playing mon-thurs) and yesterday was Jen's birthday so I'd have felt pretty bad if I didn't spend time with her. I should be back tonight though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gricehead Posted February 8, 2011 Share Posted February 8, 2011 Allow me to vent for a moment. I've just wasted about 2 hours trying to work out how FM is calculating the qualification for Argentinian teams into the Copa Libertadores. It all works off this wonderful thing called the Calendar Year table, which of course FM2010 doesn't give you for any years other than the current. So you've got to create your own calendar year table, and remember that you're dealing with the Opening stage from one season and the Closing stage from the season before. Add the two sets of points/GD together from the two table, and remember to take out anyone who may have qualified through winning either stage, or winning the previous years Libertadores. And it's all for one sentence in my story Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
stoehrst Posted February 8, 2011 Share Posted February 8, 2011 Well it appears that the Revolution have signed Ousmane Dabo, the man who had his face broken on the training ground by Joey Barton a few years back. Can't say I'm upset though, if he can pass he's already an improvement over every other central mid we have except Shalrie. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Panpardus Posted February 9, 2011 Share Posted February 9, 2011 Seeing we are venting! Have managed to save a bit of cash of late, thanks to the leeches (kids) not sucking me dry and what happens the car craps itself, so I have to buy a new battery to get home and now have to take it to get fixed which looks like its going to be 400 ish on top of the new battery. Everytime I manage to save some coin, something like this happens. Last time it was the radiator. Guess I might as well just blow my pay as it comes in and say I have learned my lesson!
