Enj Posted November 3, 2008 Share Posted November 3, 2008 Anyone tried being Newcastle yet on the demo? Just wondering what happens about the ownership issue. Cheers Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kazza Posted November 3, 2008 Share Posted November 3, 2008 Ashley in charge and the dreaded wise working as one of your staff.. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
benjawi. Posted November 3, 2008 Share Posted November 3, 2008 Yeah, Ashley just has his status as "willing to listen to offers" which seems fine by me. My problem with Newcastle is Given. Anyone else noticed that he is really poor on the game? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
hufton Posted November 3, 2008 Share Posted November 3, 2008 I didn't start as Newcastle but checked Joe Kinnear's contract out of interest. Seems his rolling monthly contract IRL has been translated to a 2 year deal on FM09. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

solstar Posted November 3, 2008 Share Posted November 3, 2008 Yeah is the Joe Kinnear contract thing a sign of what's to come? Its a little weird he doesn't get an end of year contract or a rolling contract. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kazza Posted November 3, 2008 Share Posted November 3, 2008 Yeah Given not good at distribution in the game and gives the ball to the oposition too many times but making sum fantastic saves. Owen just "effed" off to Spurs he wouldn't sign a new contract with NUFC - got 11.7m phased over 2 years. Taylor playing as rl in that he fouls, gets out of position, scores occassionally and generally leaves you worried about what he is going to do next. Jonas playing averagely atm though Coloccini NUFC best player. Still only had 1 draw and 1 deafeat, struggling with Blackburn at home currently 1-1...lol... At least not bottom oft the premier as in real life... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beezeri Posted November 3, 2008 Share Posted November 3, 2008 Yeah Given not good at distribution in the game and gives the ball to the oposition too many times but making sum fantastic saves. Well...that's quite close to the reality. Given really can't distribute the ball at all but constantly make fantastic reflex saves IRL Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

kevinM182 Posted November 3, 2008 Share Posted November 3, 2008 In mines Mike Ashely sold club after a month Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
roe Posted November 3, 2008 Share Posted November 3, 2008 Yep I started with Newcastle and Ashley sold the club within a month for some new guy who came in telling me he was gonna sack me. Then a week later he said he's keeping me in charge because of my popularity with the fans Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bardia Posted November 3, 2008 Share Posted November 3, 2008 Yeah, Ashley was out in about a month or two, new chairman was a guy named Bob Morris and said it was his intention to bring in a new coach but would think about letting me stay. Well I won all my games in between the time he said that and the time he made a decision, and ultimately I stayed. But Owen wouldn't sign a new contract so I sold him for 11m to Spurs and went and bought Falcao for 7m who has done great. Also I signed Landon Donovan on a free (obviously I'm American). He's done surprisingly well also. We're sitting in sixth now. So, for once, all things well in Geordieland. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
benjawi. Posted November 3, 2008 Share Posted November 3, 2008 Just sold Owen to Spurs for £14m. Not bad considering he won't sign a new contract. Ashley is selling up to a current member of the board in Llambias. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carl87 Posted November 3, 2008 Share Posted November 3, 2008 A 'former footballer' is in talks with buying the club at the moment on mine. Could it be wor' Al? Be awesome if it was. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Djusi Posted November 4, 2008 Share Posted November 4, 2008 A Bulgarian consortium took over the club in my save. They were going to replace me with Hristo Stoichkov, but 2 wins in a row saved me from the sack. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
trekman Posted November 4, 2008 Share Posted November 4, 2008 Since its only a quickstart we currently have I dont think anything major like new owners will happen yet. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
