red265 Posted October 12, 2011 Share Posted October 12, 2011 When your out or at work, and hear or see the words 'Football Manager' your mind starts a countdown as to when you can continue playing it again. Same!When you point the middle finger out of nowhere at the screen and screams 'That was a f^%&ing goal! Damn them refs! They hate us!' When you quickly switch to 'only commentary' and fast forward a game you're down by 3 goals. When you play football manager sitting down on the train's floor, for the journey to and back from school. When this year's FM comes out on your birthday and that is your ideal birthday gift. (yay:D) When you are seriously considering naming your future son Lionel.
