Goldy Posted October 26, 2004 Author Share Posted October 26, 2004 Welcome to Englischer Fussball Bund (EFB), we have got re-organised and are now ready for our next instalment of football management online! It’s now our third edition of the clan and this of course means that it’s once again, a brand new game from SI that we will be using. We will be using the phenomena that is Football Manager 2005, released November 5th 2004, as our battle ground for the third edition of EFB, having collected a lot of very experienced, dedicated and committed players through our first two editions, it was our first point of call to get them back into the running of things, they accepted immediately and it should be a joy to watch a group of such experienced players put their management skills to the test once more! As you can also see, EFB has made it as an FMO Established clan, this just goes to show how remarkable this game really is. Its now one of the longest running clans in the forums and its very much showing a lot of people how to run a very efficient and long term game. We may not all be brilliant at Football Management, but what truly makes a game and a player is sticking it out, time after time, no matter what happens to your team, if they get relegated or if you get sacked, it’s the effort to stand back up and the “I will not quit, I will do great things†attitude that is more admired and I’m proud to say we have had these managers. We only ever had simple requests from our players and they have been to post regular updates, to try and stick with it no matter how badly your team does, but most of all to join in the banter and have some fun as that’s what it’s all about at the end of the day. I hope you enjoy reading the wonderful and exciting updates that will be posted in the thread and I can assure you that playing the game will be even more fun because of the people that are involved.

Andy H Posted November 17, 2004 Share Posted November 17, 2004 Guess who's back.... Guess whos back.... Guess who's back with a brand new game!!!! Yes folks one of the longest running clans is back for some more action for EFB FM. Everything is in place and EFB is ready to get under way this Monday the 22nd of November (hopefully the patch will be out by then ). We have eight players ready to pit there wits against each other in what will be a gladiator - esque battle to find supremacy at the top of the domestic game in England and then onto Europe to mix it with the creme da la creme of European football. The players who will be involved in this battle are: Me - Andy H - Host Stephen Gold - EFB Originator Stepehen Riddell - Glad to have him back, a former EFB player from the first EFB. Kristian - Former EFB player and all around tit. Paul Rouch - Diablo man!!! Peter Smith - Banner Man Rob Perry Nick Tennant - The new addition to EFB so a big welcome to him. This line up may change as ideally I would like 10 players to be playing EFB but that will only happen if the right players become available. Please do not post in this thread if you wish to join EFB as it is invitation only. From the current players I want to see lots of banter both in here and in Mirc chat when playing. One more VERY IMPORTANT point is updates. I want everybody to be posting regular updates in this thread when we get started. No excuses from anybody!!! So all that needs done now is for the patch to come out and the teams to be picked (people tell me your teams asap) and then we are off and running to find out who will rule the roost in EFB FM!!!! Let the madness begin!!!!! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

David Johnston Posted November 29, 2004 Share Posted November 29, 2004 Servus Jungs, sorry since the title was in German I thought I would throw in my German knowledge. I was going to wait till Andy unveiled me as the next big thing to this clan but I was too excited and wanted to get in on this banter straight away. Dave's the name, unemployed Glaswegian living in Germany who can't speak German, great situation I'm happy anyway, more time to play FM. Support Partick Thistle so I'm sure any team I manage in the conference would be better than them. Bring on the patch. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andy H Posted November 30, 2004 Share Posted November 30, 2004 Yes welcome to our clan David I hope you will bring a lot to our game and I also can't wait to get started. In another superb catch for EFB I would like to welcome our newest member Craig aka diamond tiger who has agreed to join EFB after Pete gave me a tip of his availability. I snapped him up instantly and that takes us up to ten members of EFB. All we need now is a patch to get this game underway. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted November 30, 2004 Share Posted November 30, 2004 Cheers for the introduction andy, this a proud and honourable moment for me to be joining such an established clan as the EFB (is that enough ass-kissing?) thanks to the chef its not to often a man u fan does a favour for a gooner. looking forward to showing off my silky skills on the big stage or maybe just struggling to keep myself in work, either way can`t wait to get started.
