NepentheZ Posted December 24, 2008 Author Share Posted December 24, 2008 Download definitely did. It installs it, writes 100% files then tells me "unknown error" and that it failed. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
NepentheZ Posted December 24, 2008 Author Share Posted December 24, 2008 All is ok. FM08 has recognized that the patch has been installed, despite the fact it said there was an error. The game is loaded, and Andrew Smylie is alive and kicking. Its now 2.30 - so I can't imagine I'll do much with him today, but by 9pm tomorrow, I'll have 4 days off of work Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lower Leagues Rule Posted December 24, 2008 Share Posted December 24, 2008 Wow ok Smylie is just insane...I can't find anyone to score like that haha. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
NepentheZ Posted December 27, 2008 Author Share Posted December 27, 2008 In this current season, Smylie has been plagued with injury, and only has 119 goals with about a 1/4 of the season left. He's 134 away from his first 1,000 goals though. Hopefully, if he stays fit for the rest of the season, he could possibly get another 40-50 goals. He's achieved his current 119 goals in only 34 games, leaving him with an average goals to game ratio of 3.5. I've got 13, possibly 16 games left in the season, so yea, 150-160 total goals for the season is the aim for the big man. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Icelander83 Posted December 27, 2008 Share Posted December 27, 2008 Surely that should read "only has 119 goals with about a 1/4 of the season left"? Only 119 games seems a bit harsh, even in N-Ireland Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

NepentheZ Posted January 5, 2009 Author Share Posted January 5, 2009 Nah. I had to close FM08, and haven't put the disc back in to carry on with the game. When I get home, I'll carry on. He's over 900 though. (Only 21 years old ) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

NepentheZ Posted January 6, 2009 Author Share Posted January 6, 2009 Currently sat on 903 after his 6th season. (22 years old) - Will undoubtedly reach 1,000 this season, especially considering he already has 9 in 2 games, + his 8 goals thus far for N. Ireland.

5ergio Posted January 6, 2009 Share Posted January 6, 2009 Nep, after Smylie retired (if you play that far), can you leave the game to holiday mode with tactics/players chosen. I believe your next gen striker will easily go past 2000 even on holiday mode Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

markymarky Posted January 15, 2009 Share Posted January 15, 2009 jeez, that lad is a monster. After looking at this thread I went back to look at my game, and found that a recently retired superstar striker of mine (I'm still playing FM06!) retired with 969 goals, as an AC Milan player. Oh if only he hadn't been somewhat injury prone. I think that's the closest I'll ever get to completing this challenge. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

dafuge Posted February 14, 2009 Share Posted February 14, 2009 I don't think I'm going to get anywhere near this with FM09 unless I try somewhere like Northern Ireland.

dafuge Posted February 14, 2009 Share Posted February 14, 2009 Going to need it.Thinking about things, would it be easier in Republic of Ireland or Northern Ireland?

NepentheZ Posted February 14, 2009 Author Share Posted February 14, 2009 Good luck DG. In FM08 - I guess it was easier. Although, the Kerrison thread in the T&TT forum suggests that kind of goal tally is possible in FM09 too. So stick at it. Key attributes in the NI2 / NI1 / NIP and literally speed, finishing and composure. If you've got a player with good attirbutes in those areas, He'll easily bag 40+ goals a season.
