What's preventing you from playing FM20?
Spike55455 replied to fmonit's topic in Football Manager General Discussion
Work. Also that I do not buy FM every year means I probably will skip this one and maybe 21 as well. -
Had it with FM 19 save with West Ham. 2 Premier league titles in a row, Carabao Cup winner, Champions league runner up two years running and 1 FA Cup. I was having a not so good season in 23/24, sitting in 16th place after my best 4 players left the club. I got given an ultimatium to win against top side Liverpool or be fired. I lost 1-0 and was fired despite bringing Cup success and titles to West Ham. West Ham got demoted that season. I forgot to add...... That season I was fired, I was in the Carabao Cup final against Man United. The match was still two weeks away. West Ham got

Last day Premier League Fixtures question?
Spike55455 replied to Sussex Hammer's topic in Football Manager General Discussion
I had this once playing as Manchester City. I had won the EPL with three games left to go. I was into the final of the FA cup and the Semi-FInal of the Champions League. My last fixture was pushed back to the Wednesday for the Semi-Final of the Champions League. The game didn't matter as I was playing 11th place Watford away who could only get to tenth with a win. -
Do you think that odd year FMs are better?
Spike55455 replied to Santa Claus's topic in Football Manager General Discussion
I haven't bought all the games but here is my play list off steam. 2010 played for 336 hours. 2011 played for 16 hours. 2012 played for 346 hours. 2013 played for 29 hours. 2016 played for 664 hours. 2019 played for 495 hours. As you can see, most of my hours have been on the even numbered games. -
Your greatest "wtf just happened" moment
Spike55455 replied to Footix's topic in Football Manager General Discussion
This one is based on a full couple of seasons. I have never seen it before. Crystal Palace got demoted to the championship in 22/23. In the season of 23/24 Crystal Palace go onto win the Carabao Cup and qualify for the EC the next season despite being still stuck in the championship. Season 24/25 rolls around with Crystal Palace qualifying for the EC group stage still after being in the championship. Crystal Palace almost get demoted that season to League One but somehow WIN the EC. This qualifies them for the Champions Cup the next season and are still in the Championship. -
Does anyone still play older FM games?
Spike55455 replied to bigmattb28's topic in Football Manager General Discussion
FM16 in a long save with Woking is on my computer. I haven't played it for a while however as lately I am not in the mood to do much with it. I play FM19 now but again not really in the mood to play it right now. I go in and out of fads with some games I have on Steam. -
BEST WAY TO ANNOUNCE YOUR ARRIVAL!??
Spike55455 replied to Tiki Tak'n Turner's topic in Football Manager General Discussion
What it shows is your team suffers quite a bit like my team. We always score early goals like you did with most of your goals in the first half. My team is more likely to let through late goals again like your team did with so many goals late in the second half. -
Most over rated team on FM19
Spike55455 replied to karanhsingh's topic in Football Manager General Discussion
The topic heading says the most over rated team. Everyone seems to be mentioning the most overpowered team. Which is it? -
Have you seen this before?
Spike55455 replied to Spike55455's topic in Football Manager General Discussion
Results are up of the 4 in a row. Man United are through to the FA cup final defeating Man City. Man United play West Ham in the final. Premier League match was a 0-0 draw. Man City through to the Champions League Semis after overall win against United. -

I am Liverpool so it is up to the AI. On the league table, Man City are third and Man Utd are 8 points behind in seventh. Man City have been in better form as well. When I get the results, I will post them here as well. -
Manchester City vs Manchester United 4 times in a row. FA Cup Semi-Final, Champions League Quarter Finals and Premier Division. I have been playing FM a lot of years but have never seen 4 matches in a row before with the same two teams. How about anyone else?

FM19 - Cannot use my new edited team

Did you make the Vanarama National league playable? -
Closest to winning the league.
Spike55455 replied to distonio's topic in Football Manager General Discussion
FM 12 or 13, I forget exactly which one it was, I needed a win and have Chelsea lose or draw. Chelsea lost to some team and we were leading until 94:45 when a player gave away a penalty. We drew the game and thus lost the league on goal difference.
