Football Manager - Your Career

[smat]

Fended off a late surge from Spurs to finish third in the league, DEFYING the media's prediction of 12th and leading Arsenal back to EUROPE'S TOP TABLE.

Teenage Josh Hines signed a new contract and scored 32 league goals, but the day after we secured Champions League football he asked for his "dream move"... To Bournemouth.

Bournemouth are sort of powerhouses in this game, with Eddie Howe still at the helm. They were in the Champions League this season and have the second highest wage bill in the Premier League, but have had a disastrous domestic campaign leaving them needing a win at the Emirates on the final day to avoid relegation.

I fell out with Hines, telling him he wasn't going anywhere, dropped him to the bench and we beat Bournemouth 2-0 to send them down. Bet he's not so keen on the fuckers now.

Situations like that make me wish they'd added a 'suck my plumbs you daft prick' option to the player conversation.

There's some right shit floating around this summer on my game. Going to end up starting the season with 15 players at this rate.

Anyone ever signed Fran Guso from Barcelona? He's a 23 year old CB [well he's 23 in the year 2020] and he's awesome. I managed to snag him at Leeds so he'll come to the Championship. If you haven't ever heard of him then look him up.

Bournemouth still bid £30m for him. I rejected it on the pretext that it was a terrible career move. Saved him from himself. He's furious.

Also Burnley (13th) just offered me an interview. Lol nah ur alright.

£6.5m transfer budget with which I have to bolster the squad for the Champions League

Should have sold the miserable prick ^ for £30m.

Just read somewhere online that there's a way to compile a loan report about a specific club, whereby the report essentially tells you who they are willing to loan out. Now I'm not sure if I'm being dense, but I can't for the life of me find how to do it. Here are the supposed instructions, that I've seen on two separate sites:

"You can find out which players a club is prepared to loan out by browsing to their Overview screen and clicking ‘Get Loan Report’ from the actions menu."

I just can't find the actions menu

There's probably a really simple answer to this, but I'm struggling to find it.

 

[Luke Imp]

Or you can just put them in 'Full Transfer Status' order.

But I guess this is more to show who they would consider loaning out (including players not necessarily listed for loan)?

I don't have it in front of me (for a change) but can you do it as a scouting assignment? Eg I am looking for a ... report on a team, or sutin?

Yeah, I figured with this option, you might be able to identify players whose clubs aren't actively trying to loan them out, but would still be willing to let them go out on loan.

Hadn't thought about going through a scouting assignment. I'll give it a try. Cheers.

Sacked at Aldershot. No one would touch me so I started a new game, I am now manager of Alcanenense FC in National Championship - F.

 

[smat]

Had a #challenging pre season. With bugger all money really, I've only succeeded in adding three new players to the squad, and one was a replacement for my right-back who I sold to Barcelona for £14.5m.

Man City then offered me an interview, but I've got #unfinishedbusiness.

 

[Luke Imp]

Got into the PO's on the final day with Doncaster. Blackpool await and, to be honest, I've got a half decent record against the 'better' sides. It was the rubbish at the bottom I struggled against.

 

[Techno Natch]

There is this player called Costa for Gondomor, he has scored 7 this season, six of them against me.

 

[smat]

Fourth in the Premier League at the end of January. We were in the title race but just lost four in a row and that's pretty much fuct us over. Can't really give the two Manc clubs an inch at the moment, they both win almost every game.

In the League Cup final as well, against my old club Burnley... chance to win my first MAJOR(ish) TROPHY.

The best thing about this season is that I've already beaten Tottenham four times. Once in the league (5-1), twice in the League Cup semis (2-1 away, 4-1 at home) and once in the FA Cup (4-1). My second best 19-year-old striker has scored six goals against them so far. He'll start at White Hart Lane in the league later in the season :ainsley:

 

[Luke Imp]

Won the PO's with Doncaster.

Beat Blackpool 3-1, 0-0 and Shrewsbury 1-0 in the Final.

Resigned and holidayed until mid-October and there was very little of any note available but I've ended up taking the Shrewsbury job on. PO finalists last season, bottom of L1 this. To be fair, they've got a decent squad, but a bit thin on the ground from an attacking point of view, so I'm aiming to take them up this season.

Could be here just the ¾ of the season!

Won 2-1...

Now 2nd in the league with an FA Cup quarter final away to runaway league leaders Man City coming up. Hopefully they rest players.

Btw I went out of the CL bottom of my group, disaster.

 

[Luke Imp]

Crazy last few mins and pens.

i have created in the past weeks the biggest tournament in my life for FM. the test is running at the moment.

it works as below:

every continent is splitted in different sections. South America for example in three. south America 1 ( Venezuela and Bolivia 8 clubs each) South America 2 ( Argentina and Brazil 16 clubs each) and South America 3 ( the rest 10-11 clubs each)

from section 1 the winner, from 2 and 3 both the winner and runner-up will qualify for the final tournament. the runner-up from south america 1 will play a qualification tournament along with the runner-up from north-america 1 (central-america) north-america 2 ( caribbean) and north-america 3 ( mexico and USA).

Oceania is divided into 2 qualification rounds. New zealand and the rest. the winner of both are playing a playoff against each other for the one spot in the final tournament. the loser will have a playoff against some losers from asia.

the top leagues in europe ( Italy, England, Spain, Germany) have their own qualification round for all the clubs which are competing in the respective top flight and will send 1 club each to the final tournament. the runner-up of each will also play a playoff tournament and the winner will also go through.

to make it possible that every nation got a chance to send some clubs to, i have created balanced qualification zones. for example is Wales, ireland and northern ireland one and scotland is playing along with sweden, norway and denmark in the other one.

Beat City but lost to fucking BOURNEMOUTH in the semi-final. ARRRRGH.

RUBBISH.

Karma for refusing to sell them your striker?

 

[BCFC Jordan]

Decided to start a game with Dundee Utd and see how close I could go to beating Celtic to the title in the first season. Managed to do it with two games to spare. Highlights of the season probably being two wins away at Parkhead, one 4-0 win in the League Cup and another in the league when Celtic could have gone to within three points of me with about seven games remaining, we won 5-4 after being behind 1-0 and 2-1 down, to put us nine clear of them.

Only negative was that I lost the League Cup final 3-2 against Hearts, after initially being 2-0 up. Their winner came in the 90th minute as well.

First silverware I've won on FM15 after three saves (Dundee Utd, Newcastle and Exeter). Can't see me replicating that season again as I made mostly short-term signings. So I'll give the Champions League Qualifiers a go, and then look for another challenge.

Yes, and relegating them. They beat Chelsea 4-0 in the final. I think they might be back with a vengeance next season :/

wonderful stuff smat

 

[Cas]

In my third season. Finished 3rd in my first season as Bradford City manager. Second season I got sacked after I found myself in lower mid table. Took over at Stevenage while they were in the bottom four and finished 17th, six points clear.

Now in my third season and I've enjoyed a good start.

 

[smat]

wonderful stuff smat

thank u yellow.

Is this quite boring now, cos it's Arsenal and not some shitty non-league team? I don't care, I need this outlet cos I can't bore anyone in real life.

I spent £38m on two defenders in the summer, having identified my leaky defence as the reason I missed out on the title last season (got within 5 points in the end but couldn't quite close the gap). Two of my first three games of the season were a 3-3 draw at home to Hull and a 5-2 defeat at United. Fuck sake.

 

[Luke Imp]

Love Sean McGinty on my game.

A solid and reliable L1 and L2 LB (can also cover CB and DM), follows me everywhere and only ever asks for £400-£500 a week. What a star. I'm about to sign him again for Shrewsbury because a) I only have one LB and b) the current one wants to leave anyway (he's also shit and expensive).
