rancer890 Posted February 4, 2009 Share Posted February 4, 2009 Of course you're welcome. What could be better than having the creator of the sign up on our side?So the UNA (United Nations of the Americas) looks like this: Argentina - FM Prem Mexico - FM Prem Brazil - FM Prem USA - FM Div 1 (TBC) Columbia - FM Div 3 (TBC - I imagine you will join) Chile - FM Div 3 (TBC - Again, I imagine you will accept) Uruguay - FM Div 3 (TBC) Paraguay - FM Div 3 (TBC) Is this the organization that wants to challenge the FC Berlin Bears for global supremacy?

Dave. Posted February 4, 2009 Author Share Posted February 4, 2009 FM FIRST DIVISION – Table Celtic Rangers The Scots sit seventh after the first half of the season, and have a good chance of improving that position through the rest of the season. They signed young Bosnian goalkeeper Zoran Dzidic from QPR on a free transfers, and have used mainly youngsters. Club de Switz The Swiss outfit have enjoyed a decent start to the season, and sit second, just behind the leaders. They made more signings than any other side in the summer – three. Goalkeepers Daryl McCulloch for £210K from Inverness and Eric Patton for £65K from Hearts, as well as Russian utility man Ruslan Zhuravlev for £275K from Zenit. They have used youth players other than these, and have a very good chance of grabbing the one and only promotion spot to the top flight this season. Eirethosis Famagusta The Greeks have started well, sitting in fourth at the moment with every chance still of promotion. They made no signings during the summer, and have been playing mainly with youth players. FC Frozen Nuuk The Danes have not started too well, and sit ninth, in the relegation playoff spot, after the first half of the season. Russian keeper Valery Rodin was signed for £150K from Zenit, but has been unable to keep out a lot of the shots he has faced this season. Again, mainly youth players have been used so far this season. Galacticos A poor start for the Russians has seen them end 2008 at the foot of the table. They completed the signing of English goalkeeper Scott Harwood for £425K from Wigan in the summer, but he, alongside most of the youth players used this season, has proved fairly ineffective. Changes will need to be made for the Russians to have any chance of staying up this season. IFK Stockholm A very strong start for the Swedes has deteriorated ever so slightly, and the side sit third at the half way mark in the season. They signed two goalies in the summer, Togolese Christian Cisse for £325K from Celtic, and Dutchman Rob Visser on a free transfer. Again, they have been using nearly completely youth players. Ottoman Empire At the beginning of January, the Turks sit proudly atop the First Division, and occupy the only promotion place. They also signed two goalies in the summer, Scot Tommy Cunningham for £130K from St. Mirren, and Uzbek shot-stopper Alisher Pulatov on a free from Pakhtakor. They have also used mainly youth players. TWC Indiana The Americans have started fairly poorly, and sit eighth at the half way mark. They signed promising young Welsh goalkeeper Ray Moore on a free transfer from Tottenham, and have used him alongside mainly greyed out players so far this season. Vampire’s Elite The Romanians signed English goalie Rob McIntosh on a free from QPR in the summer, and sit fifth in the league after a fairly decent start to the season. They have been using mainly youth players so far. Warsaw Warriors The Poles have started fairly well this season, sitting sixth with a decent points tally. They need to do more if they are to have any chance of promotion this season, but that isn’t completely out of reach for them yet. They signed former England international keeper Ricky Ward on a free transfer from Portsmouth, and have been playing youngsters alongside him.

Dave. Posted February 4, 2009 Author Share Posted February 4, 2009 FM PREMIER LEAGUE – Table Amsterdam Angels The Dutchmen have started their season fairly strongly, and sit sixth, just inside the top half of the table. They signed Dutch keeper Sjors Kuijpers for £35K from Ajax, and have been using him along with youth players, as every other team in the Premier Division has. Berlin Bears The Germans have started the seasons very strongly, and sit atop the table after the first half of the season. They signed young goalkeeper Grant McKeown from Celtic for £2.4M, and have been using youth players alongside him so far this season. Buenos Aires The Argentineans made no signings in the summer, and have been playing so far this season with their own academy’s youngsters. They sit disappointingly in tenth, and have a lot of work to do if they want to make something of this season yet. Catalan The Spaniards haven’t started brialliantly, and sit eighth at the half way mark. They also made no signings in the summer, and have been playing so far this season with youth products. Croatia Reds The Croatians sit one place below Catalan, in ninth, and haven’t been playing thrilling football so far this season. They made one transfer in the summer, that of Irish goalkeeper Jim Russell, who was signed for £9K from Bohemians. The Reds have been playing this season so far mainly with youth players. Czech Warriors No signings were made in the summer by the Warriors, and they have been using mainly youth players so far this season. They sit in a fairly poor eleventh half way through the season, and can only hope that they do not slip down into twelfth, and relegation. Essendon FC The Portuguese side started poorly, sitting bottom after six games. However, they have turned their season around since then, and now sit up in second, just three points behind the leaders Berlin Bears. They signed two goalkeepers in the summer, Macedonian Zlatko Iliev on a free from Watford, and Scot Ryan Weir for £240K from Dundee Utd. As with the rest of the division, Essendon have been playing so far with mainly youth players. Mexicana A poor opening to the season sees Club de Futbol Mexicana prop up the table, a fair way from safety. A huge amount of work needs to be done if they are to avoid relegation this season. They signed English goalkeeper Brett Watson on a free transfer from Burnley; he was used, again, in conjunction with the team’s youngsters. Romford Town The English club have started fairly strongly, and sit fifth after the first half of the season. They made one signing in the summer, that of the once-capped Belgian goalkeeper Bart Bresciani. Youngsters have also been the favoured first team players for Romford. Sambistas The Brazilian side started very strongly, but have since slipped a little bit, and sit fourth at the half way mark in the season. They still have time to push forward once again and challenge for the title, but there is a lot of work to do if they are to do that. They singed two goalkeepers in the summer transfer window, Icelander Birkir Tryggvason for £210K from LDU de Quito, and Uruguayan shot stopper Ignacio Martinez for £3.5M from Porto. Scuderia Mugello The Italians sit seventh in the league at the beginning of January, which is fairly mediocre. Their season can still swing either way, and that could depend on whether the team is strengthened in the January transfer window. They made no signings in the summer window. Versailles The French side have enjoyed a quietly successful start to life in the FM Premier League, and sit third half way in. They made no signings, and have played mainly youth players, and hope that their season can continue in the way it has begun. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gair Posted February 4, 2009 Share Posted February 4, 2009 Chairman of Penshaw Athletic press conference: In an interview with the Ghana Times, Chairman Gair was asked some testing questions, which he answered as straight as he possibly could. After being asked what he thought of the new league structure after the trillionaire's involvement in football, Gair likened it to the restructuring of motor sport, saying it was like "the soccer version of A1 Grand Prix". Also, on being asked about Penshaw's chances in the 3rd division this year, he wasn't too optimistic, and claimed that he'd be surprised if he'd be able to get any cash free'd up to sign new players in the January transfer window. He has however, claimed that he has some form of investment due shortly, and that it may be in place by the end of the window. Gair asked us to "watch this space".

I expect however that I'll have to scale things down for future updates, if that's not too much of a problem or disappointment for anybody! I didn't include team lineup screenshots because they were either empty, or with one or two goalies. When the teams get filled up, I'll include a team and transfer screenshot in updates.
