FirstTouch Posted August 16, 2008 Share Posted August 16, 2008 23 consecutive Champions League titles with Braintree Town. I would love to claim I have done something similar as you have but I'd be telling lies My best achievements have been with relatively big clubs I'm just not really a fan of lower league management. I'd say Fm 06 (I think) where I won every cup I was entered with Lyon for 3 seasons in a row. Yeah I know not much of a achievment but I enjoyed that game with Lyon immensely with Fred scoring a hattrick + more every game and ending up with 70-80 goals a season.

s04.au Posted August 20, 2008 Share Posted August 20, 2008 Best moments? (Managing Schalke04 in German First Division) In my first season , it would have to of been the quick and good transfer market decisions I made before the start of the season: having rid the club of a couple of its huge earning yet average 'stars' for some decent fees and importing Van der Vaart, Swedish international CB Olof Mellberg, and Russian international Ivan Saenko.. and some higher class staff. I went on to win the league and cup in my first season but crashed out of the CL in the group phase comming in 3rd..... all this while still making a a profit in the double digit millions. In the second season: I decided to continue the financial growth of the team as I felt I had a winning squad already so I didn't do any transfers in the summer break between 1st and 2nd season except for a few reserves and youngsters leaving/getting loaned out. It all payed off at the end of the season as I won the treble (league, cup, champions league).. going into the summer with double digit millions in profit and a transfer kitty of over 60 million euro. Those were my most memorable moments so far as I just started playing 08 properly and seriously. Im already Number 1 on my nationality Hall of Fame winning 3 major trophies and 3 minor trophies I got offered the national job for greece in the summer break as well as the job for Real Madrid after Schuster resigned, however I turned Real Madrid down since im a Barca man The success is however, bitter sweet... Im now in my summer break between season 2 and 3...and unfotunately VDV feels like we're not good enough for him and he needs bigger and better things cos hes achieved everything he can here, he handed in his transfer request before the end of the season... Preparing for VDV's almost guaranteed departure since he fought off all attempts to have him stay.. I managed to secure (to fans and board and marketing delight) the services of the young French star Jeremy Menez.... at the time Man Utd were interested in VDV but now after I promised to let him go , no club is interested and now im stuck with an unhappy VDV that no one wants to buy rotting on the bench for a hefty weekly sum .. Ive even tried offering him away at half the price I paid for him/His worth.. no one taking the bait. I even thought about the idea of moving to a league with high status because of the difficulty to lure certain targets to our club.. but loyalty got the better of me as my team offered me a 400% increase in wages for the next 2 years Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

glamdring Posted August 20, 2008 Share Posted August 20, 2008 Winning Champions League with Icelandic side Grindavik in FM06 was obviously my best achievement, but winning the Bundesliga with Werder Bremen, toppling Bayern Munich by playing football in the style I wanted it to be played is right up there as a proud achievement, not least because evidence since them hints at it being very much a one-off achievement too!

UELLfan Posted August 20, 2008 Share Posted August 20, 2008 I guess winning the CL with a welsh side (the yellow canaries) has to top the list.

In 08 I guess 12 SPL league titles in a row with Albion Rovers, despite we never managing to pose a real threath to European competitions. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sir_Liam Posted August 24, 2008 Share Posted August 24, 2008 Taking Hammerfest from the Norwegian 2nd Division to Champions League success on FM2007. It took 14 seasons but was without doubt the most satisfaction I've ever got on FM. It was frustrating at times with players forever wanting to leave and the chairman always keen to sell my star players, but it was well worth the amount of hard work I put in as a lower league club just to win the Champions League.

I considered putting on a duff team because of the lengths I'd have to goto to win the match, and I played down talk of us winning. In the end I put on a strong team. We ended up winning 4-0.
