EcksGingerMop Posted April 3, 2008 Share Posted April 3, 2008 Thinking of starting a long term game with Oxford and taking over BigEck at Birmingham. Was wondering; 8.0.2 patch Signings? Load all players from....? Playable leagues....? Suggestions? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
dexta200 Posted April 4, 2008 Author Share Posted April 4, 2008 jus do playable english bsp. then load players from france, romania and scandinavia i would say Emil Salomonsson and Esmir Sabic are sure fire bets for the BSP. and then loans loans and more loans get a parent club and then you are sorted forthe bsp look around the romanian and french lower leagues for some bargains! charles Devineau Ludovic Mary both great! also Marc Kalenga!

EcksGingerMop Posted April 4, 2008 Share Posted April 4, 2008 Cant find Sabic but signed all the others who look great, especially Mary and Ludovic. Shall i sign anyone else or just get in loans, and loan suggestions? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ypresfr Posted April 4, 2008 Share Posted April 4, 2008 Ecks, have you got a parent club mate? If not get one: great source of loans. First season I got Tommy Forecast, Jacques Maghoma, Zoltan Harsanyi first season and they were all great. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jonnyowl Posted April 4, 2008 Share Posted April 4, 2008 Hey guys another update for you Well all is going swimmingly in the Premiership, half way through now, currently 8th with 9 wins 4 draws and 6 loses. Ive scored more than anyone else and only Burnley have conceded more. Only 3 points off 5th with a game in hand. I'm still using the kimz tactic. Best signing has to be Ched Evans on loan scored 19 in 19 and is the top scorer in the league. Had a disappointment in the cup losing 4-1 on pens to Cardiff in the 2nd round and have Chelsea in the FA cup. Also at the start of the season I was offered the England job and took it. Have Holland, Sweden and Greece in my group for Euro 2012. For anyone starting out you must get Michael Coulson from Barnsley scored goals at all levels for me right from BSP to the Premiership.

ypresfr Posted April 4, 2008 Share Posted April 4, 2008 Jonny, fantastic mate! Shows what can be done in the Prem and something for me to match/beat. Good luck with England! Can you post your team mate: cheers! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jonnyowl Posted April 4, 2008 Share Posted April 4, 2008 There you go ypresfr Just something I'd like to ask is. At the start of the season I got £29.5m for television rights though my bank balance never went up. Will this money go in gradually over the season, at the end or never and its a bug? I had a balance of about £9m and the board gave me £21.5m to spend. Cant imagine the board giving me that kind of money to spend with out the £29.5m Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ypresfr Posted April 4, 2008 Share Posted April 4, 2008 Impressive Jonny. Many more recognisable players than I have atm! As for the TV money, I'm not sure tbh. I always thought you got it all at once at the start. Could be wrong tho. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jonnyowl Posted April 4, 2008 Share Posted April 4, 2008 Well I have checked my finances and its going in month by month. Halfway through the season and I have around half the cash. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ypresfr Posted April 4, 2008 Share Posted April 4, 2008 Oh well, no-one's perfect! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jonnyowl Posted April 4, 2008 Share Posted April 4, 2008 I'd have preferred to have the cash in one lump sum and spend it all. Another problem I have is players don't want to come because of the training facilities. The board are upgrading these and added about another 3500 seats to the stadium still too small for the Premiership though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ypresfr Posted April 4, 2008 Share Posted April 4, 2008 Get ready for a screenie avalanche: it's Matt's end of season report! 4 seasons, 4 promotions, 4 three figure point totals! Yawn..... More interestingly, guess who won the Prem? Derby!!! Ganea, Ganea, Ganea!!!! And the rest weren't too bad either! Tom, Obama has gone and Scribe has hardly played so I figure there's no point doing them. Anyway... His stats have hardly improved but there was no danger of dropping him: immense all season. 9/10 Discipline showing improvement and mountains of assists contribute to another fantastic season. 9/10 Some transfer activity already. Angel di Maria has gone for, wait for it... £20 million!!! So obv I now need a fb replacement. I've narrowed it down to: Daniel Carvalho (£16 mill), Niko Krancjar (£10 mill), Balazs Dzsudzsak (£11.5 mill), Ashley Young (£9 mill), Sylvain Marvaeux (£8 mill), Abdou Razack Traoré (£4.25 mill). What do you think? What odds on Oxford for the Premiership title next season??? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
dexta200 Posted April 4, 2008 Author Share Posted April 4, 2008 i would go for Traore personally! great player! well done matt! how do you do it! any chance of you uploading your tactic so i can download it please if you cant no worries san roman and bernardo both look good! and over 50 goals again for ganea mate im jealous lol! Jonny - the tv rights money is throughout the tseason i think when you play your matches on tv you get some! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ypresfr Posted April 4, 2008 Share Posted April 4, 2008 Have gone for Troare so we'll see what happens. I'll send you the tactic via e-mail mate, easier than uploading it imo, as long as everyone doesn't ask for it!! What are you upto nowadays (on FM) mate?

dexta200 Posted April 4, 2008 Author Share Posted April 4, 2008 okay mate cheers still on Newcastle ended up finishing 5th!! so just going to try to win this bet then will try your tactic out with oxford! will also try it against bigger teams with newcastle as my tactic is very attacking with them! cheers mate. so biggest fm achievement yet then mate? haha Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ypresfr Posted April 4, 2008 Share Posted April 4, 2008 Will do mate! Have a few regens on the fringes of the first team and if I need help I'll just do a screenie of them.

davidmcain Posted April 5, 2008 Share Posted April 5, 2008 Shaky start unfortunately. Afetr 8 games : 2-4-2, sitting in 10th but only four off the playoffs. Defense is rock solid, 5 conceded, but not scoring much yet, only 6. That guy Sabic is a rock, took him for free and picked up a gem in goal. Austrian Oliver Kalogeridis, 17 aerial ability, 12 handling, not bad for the BSP. Looking a bit french though, got four of them. Anyway will report back with better news soon... i hope.

ypresfr Posted April 5, 2008 Share Posted April 5, 2008 DiscoStu, hi mate! 1) Def get a parent club, brilliant source of loans. 2) Loans, loans, loans! They're key! Look at Premiership and Championship reserve teams. 3) Definitely get Emil Salomonsson and possibly Esmir Sabic. Also look around the lower French leagues for gems. DL: Adilson (Free), Paul Tierney (Blackpool), Loans. What leagues have you loaded mate? Good luck! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
DiscoStu94 Posted April 5, 2008 Share Posted April 5, 2008 Leagues I've loaded (Top league only unless stated): Brazil England (Blue Square North/South) France Germany Italy Holland Scotland Spain Also loaded all players from Brazil, England, Finland, France, Sweden and Norway. Tried to get a parent club but the board couldn't find any. Tierney rejected my loan offer, but I am trying to buy him as the filter says he would be interested. Which Adilson did you mean? Have you got his full name? I'm really struggling to find DL's, and have none atm. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ypresfr Posted April 5, 2008 Share Posted April 5, 2008 RE. Tierney, I meant to sign him permanently and then look for other loans. Sorry mate can't tell you Adilson's full name os he's retired now. He was a Brazilian DLC, MLC on a free transfer and he was about 31 or 32 iirc. Sorry, that's all I can think of atm. Shame you couldn't get a parent club: they really help. Guess you were just unlucky. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ypresfr Posted April 6, 2008 Share Posted April 6, 2008 These are my transfers for the Premiership season ahead. I've also got Nicolas Millan coming on a free in January. It's mainly been replacing the players sold with cheaper alternatives. This is the squad: Terry Roberts (GK) Paul Christie (DC, DM) Magno (DC) Francisco Hernandez (MC) Morgan Gerrard (AMRLC, FC) Daniel Jose Farias (ST) Wellington (ST) I'm thinking (First team/Second team): GK: Joao Carlos/Scribe/Roberts DR: San Roman/Para DL: Mattock/Eron DC: Pellerano/Magno/Sall DC: Dervite/Christie/Sall MR: Lulinha/Gerrard ML: Troare/Bilyadetinov MC: Galvan/Wilshere/Hernandez MC: Bernardo/Torres/Hernandez FC: Ganea/Farias FC: Wellington/Lupoli What do you reckon?

ypresfr Posted April 6, 2008 Share Posted April 6, 2008 Not so well so far I'm afraid. Lost to Villa 1-0 and Arsenal 3-0 but beat Birmingham 2-1. It's probably just the new members of the squad settling down tho. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
