Gordon went to Arsenal on my game as well. Thankfully I beat them 3-1 away . Still unbeaten now, 11 games. Ustari for me was 13 mil, on 91k p/w.

AcidBurn Posted November 4, 2007 Share Posted November 4, 2007 I am a Sunderland fan IRL and am waiting for my newQuadcore PC to arrive before i start a proper game as Sunderland. So my question is the finances seem to be crap to start with so how do you guys get so much money after like 2 seasons. Is Quinn as generous in the game a real life with the money?

Might have to put up with slow speeds and stuff then transfer the game to my new PC. I don't know if i can wait the three days til it gets here lol. 7million by January is good though seems theres a few moer Sunderland fans on these forums than i thought.

BlackCats Rule Posted November 4, 2007 Share Posted November 4, 2007 you make roughly 10 mill at least on season tickets but quin doesnt seem to turn any of it to transfers till january of first season, i got about 8 mill for league finish first season then got 29.5 mill in tv rights? seems excessive but i dont care. explains some of the hiking costs of players tho. but quin is a ****** in this game, accepted 26 mill for gordon cos was too good? i mean wtf? i did get ustari but gordon had 17 clean sheets the previous season :@ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

WilZC Posted November 4, 2007 Share Posted November 4, 2007 why would any1 want to sell Gordon?? he's great!! anyway.. sold of Kenwyne Jones and Ross Wallace... got about 11mill from the both of them... bought, in the first season Alex(Vasco) - 400k Lulinha(Corinthians) - 1.5mil Wijnaldum(Feyenoord) - 750k Eddie Johnson (Kansas City) - 2.3mil Christopher Samba (Blackburn) - 3mil Distel Zola (Monaco) - 275k After a great 11game unbeaten start, team toned down after getting smashed by Chelsea, finished 7th ..... Alex came after the mid-season transfer window and played well Lulinha is too young to come till the 2nd season Wijnaldum played great! Eddie Johnson is Eddie Johnson Zola was really effective Samba was the 2nd best buy after Eddie, anchoring the defence. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlackCats Rule Posted November 5, 2007 Share Posted November 5, 2007 its nota case of wanting to sell gordon i think its mostly a case of quin not giving us a choice , trust me once big offers roll in quin will likely take one of them, then you'll have to look elsewhere.

clonabanjo Posted November 6, 2007 Share Posted November 6, 2007 Just done the first season. I Came 9th which i was delighted with. Niall generously gave me £25m to spend to get in the Uefa cup I was delighted with the Midfield and Strikers part so only 2 additions with Lulinha in AMC and as a striker But i wanted a completely new defence So i did. Im in the Euro Vase after the 9th Place. But i got through it so im in the Uefa Cup Qualifying. Ins Lulinha £3.3m Tamas £5m Nordtveit £1m Guilherme £5m Samba £5m Frazier Cambell £2.7m Thiago £6m Walcott Loan Outs McShane £3.9m Richardson £2.5m 1st Eleven GK Gordon LB Guilherme RB Tamas CB Samba CB Nordtveit CDM Nengomashe CAM Lulinha LAM Alex RAM Wijnaldum ST Walcott ST Zarate I got odds of 50-1 so the Bookies are backing me for 6th Place. Im delighted with my team personally. Great Keeper Great Left Back Awesome Right Back Rock Solid Centre Backs Solid Defensive Mid Great RAM Great LAM Sensational CAM Zarate was the premiership top scorer last year and Walcott is a great strike partner for Zarate What does all you black cats fans think of my team. Its a great young team aswell. Anyone reckon strenthening needed? I reckon ill get in the Uefa Cup through the league next season as ive sorted out my Defence and Strenthened my Attack.

BlackCats Rule Posted November 6, 2007 Share Posted November 6, 2007 im not a fan of walcot but thats just me, he seems to have stacks of pace but not alot else whenever i sign him, so he smashes through a defence then smacks the ball into the crowd. apart from that looks very solid, in attack you def got lotsa years left with them, think you will struggle in europe but depends how well your guys play and if tactics are right you might do very well, just thinking lack of experience might hinder you slightly? but i sometimes go the other way and do an AC Milan and have a squad of old people who cant run, which can work in italy but in prem you're stuffed. this is why i regretted signing roy makaay, altho getting pippo inzaghi on season long loan was great in my 2nd season, but by 3rd hes 35/36 and thats too old even for me . i also love mcshane for me hes been solid, by far my best defender and i got breno and colocini aswell, but i play 3 cb so they all play Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
clonabanjo Posted November 6, 2007 Share Posted November 6, 2007 Walcott looks FB on his debut got 2 Assists and the MOM. I can see him and Zarate working well TBH. I love Niall's Low Expectations. He wants the 5th round of the FA Cup The 1st group stage in the Uefa and 5th round of League Cup. And i need to get in the top 7 this year. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlackCats Rule Posted November 6, 2007 Share Posted November 6, 2007 im on my 3rd season and by end of next season im meant to be challenging for title, it was his 2 year plan for my 2nd contract. and walcott sounds great for you then, if he plays well best tyr get permanent deal tho, dont want arsenal to take all the reward for you training him up great.

clonabanjo Posted November 6, 2007 Share Posted November 6, 2007 Yeah ill definately try a perma deal in January hes been great for me. So far hes played 3 scored 1 and made 2.

Billy Sharp could be good in the second season i bought him with someone else for 4 million. What tactics do you guys use as my 4-4-2 got slaughtered last season.
