Connor Posted January 16, 2017 Share Posted January 16, 2017 Hi All I just wondered if anyone had come across similar messages via the social feed, as I have just done. Basically agreed a deal for free agent Zanzala (previously of Derby) for my club Chelmsford in 2nd season in the Conference South. (looked very promising and high potential etc) Interestingly on social media I have seen comments from fans such as "Baller" and "Definitely PA of 200".. not seen this before, anyone else? If it's rare, are those kind of comments, to suggest, I am on to something here and about to buy an absolute quality player for the future? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
champmanlegend Posted January 16, 2017 Share Posted January 16, 2017 They are just comments from social media users. As in real life, take them with a pinch of salt. The PA200 comment does not mean they have a PA of 200. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Connor Posted January 16, 2017 Author Share Posted January 16, 2017 Thanks Champmanlegend for coming back to me! I understand normally to take them with a pinch of salt, but I have never seen this comment before, and usually they are quite generic and repetitive, so I therefore wondered whether, as it was rare to perhaps, take more notice of it Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
forameuss Posted January 16, 2017 Share Posted January 16, 2017 It's a bit of a fourth-wall breaking in-joke. Some people on here seem far too serious to see it as that though and didn't like it. Probably means that he's a decent potential, but could be anywhere between 150 or 200 (those are numbers picked right out the air, no basis to them) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Connor Posted January 16, 2017 Author Share Posted January 16, 2017 I will take that if he is dropping down to me at Conference South level! Hoping he will do a job! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
..Valhalla.. Posted January 16, 2017 Share Posted January 16, 2017 As @forameuss said, it certainly means he has decent potential (your scouts will tell you that anyway). I just recently bought a Northern Irish regen right winger at Gelsenkirchen. He's only 20 but clearly will be a monstrously good player before long; after only 6 months he's cast-iron first choice when even half-fit. I sold a World Class RW to make room for him. Got this in my social feed while signing him: note - I've only edited out unlicensed team names, in case you're wondering. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

WhoPutTheBallInTheCarlisleNet? Posted January 18, 2017 Share Posted January 18, 2017 I have heard people saying "PA 200" in real life, talking about real life players... just an indication of how FM has ingrained itself into footballing culture. That's how I took it anyway. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
