bermybhoy Posted March 27, 2008 Author Share Posted March 27, 2008 No worries. Does anyone else fancy being the inaugural manager of the softies? 2 minute editing job... If not we can always go back to the one team A few of the supporters of the concept haven't volunteered...any of you guys interested? I'm thinking aaberdeenn, pjtopor, minisav...

aaberdeenn Posted March 27, 2008 Share Posted March 27, 2008 I wouldn't mind having a season in charge of either team, not particularly bothered which one. Although I wouldn't be able to be do any editing I'm afraid. The editor doesn't run very efficiently on my low-end machine and I've no previous editing experience.

Robert_296 Posted March 27, 2008 Share Posted March 27, 2008 What would I have to do for the editing? Just change the name, stadium etc of one team in the BSS? If that's it I probably could. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately the records thread with all the facts and figures has also been deleted. This will contain bits of the story, but the links are dead and most of it went in the other thread. This screenshot shows his history in his prime, although he played for longer than that. A very brief review of his career would be: Born in Nottingham and came through the youth ranks at Forest. Signed as a promising looking 17 year old for £15m by Braintree. Scored over 1000 goals for the club, including 178 goals in 159 games for England. Retired at the age of 38, scoring the winner in the CL final in his last game. Became my assistant manager at Braintree. Became caretaker manager, then manager at Braintree once I had retired in 2060. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

bermybhoy Posted March 27, 2008 Author Share Posted March 27, 2008 Robert 296 - let me know when you have the file and I will start the new thread. I have made a start on the game but don't want to kick off too soon. The only slight issue is that I'll be tied up much of Saturday (there's a wee game on ) and I need to move But, it's written and just needs posted, so shouldn't take too long. Small issue is the fact we don't have complete sign up yet, but hopefully that would be encouraged when the proper thread starts - hopefully keeping this one open until the spaces are full would be ok, Daf?
