V1adimir Posted December 7, 2010 Share Posted December 7, 2010 http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport2/hi/football/fa_cup/9260058.stm Have you experienced such super comebacks yourselves? Sure, you have! It has happened to me a couple of times. The recent one while managing Vauxhall Motors. We played against Bradford in FA Cup 1st Round and were 2 goals behind after 14 minites: But the replay was much more thrilling, as we managed to claim an important victory after having conceded 3 goals (including 2 penalties) after 30 minutes: Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
phnompenhandy Posted December 8, 2010 Share Posted December 8, 2010 Leyton Orient scored six times in extra time to come from 2-0 down and beat non-league Droylsden 8-2 in a match which ended nine a side.] You're right, that is SOOOOO Football manager!!

La Furia Roja Posted December 8, 2010 Share Posted December 8, 2010 i think i just had mine, i was 4-0 down at half time and won 6-4, they keeper got a knock and they kept him on, im sure it is why he was so poor in the 2nd half Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
V1adimir Posted December 8, 2010 Author Share Posted December 8, 2010 Having a knock may influence player's perfomance? I thought that only chances for him to get a more seriuos injury got higher... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought that only chances for him to get a more seriuos injury got higher... well think about it, they have a knock which is a potential leg injury, it then comes back that they have pulled a hamstring, it would obviously hinder their movements etc Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
IMT Posted December 8, 2010 Share Posted December 8, 2010 I was gutted, as a Norwich fan, we were 1 minute away from hosting Droylsden, and probably a live TV date!!! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

How many SOTs did your team make managing score 6 goals? To have 6 SOTs in one half is quite rare, but I guess you had more. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

pb1uk Posted December 8, 2010 Share Posted December 8, 2010 Loving the Vauxhall Motors screenies! I'm Stockport currently in league One, drew Norwich in the FA Cup 3rd round, who are upper Championship. At home i went 1 up then 2-1 down, but went all out and snatched a late equaliser. In the replay i was given no hope, but kept it tight and caught them on the break. The first two goals were lightning breaks after they were putting my goal under pressure. Apologies for the quality.

V1adimir Posted December 8, 2010 Author Share Posted December 8, 2010 In the 2nd round I managed to beat Torquay scoring 3 time at the last 10 minutes: Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
V1adimir Posted December 8, 2010 Author Share Posted December 8, 2010 Then I had a difficult match away against Blackpool which I was lucky to draw using a defensive tactic: Blackpool also dominated during replay but my players demostrated good composure in front of their goal: Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
V1adimir Posted December 8, 2010 Author Share Posted December 8, 2010 In the fourth round I had even more difficult test as I was playing away against Arsenal. I expected my team would lose but decided to give them a fight and chose an attacking formation with control strategy. The result was shocking as we were lucky again: Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
V1adimir Posted December 8, 2010 Author Share Posted December 8, 2010 In the next round we had more luck as we managed to score on the 85th minute and Brighton missed a penalty several minutes later: We were a better team during replay and won it despite missing a penalty: Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
V1adimir Posted December 8, 2010 Author Share Posted December 8, 2010 In the 6th Round we beat Leeds: ... but lost Semi Final to the eventual champions Man City. I chose the same tactic that I used against Arsenal and we managed to score 3 times again but still were overplayed by the champions: Moral: A comeback in one match can bring a lot of changes and lead you to the top!

Nobby_McDonald Posted December 8, 2010 Share Posted December 8, 2010 I once beat Chester City 8-3 at home with Leigh RMI after being 3-0 down inside 15 minutes. It was many years back on something like CM4 so I have no screen of it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sheva Elite Posted December 8, 2010 Share Posted December 8, 2010 I wish I always had such scoring percentage as I really hate stats like these: Just be grateful you got the win!

Understand what you mean, but those are home league matches that's why I expect my team to win them. With so many shots scoring just once is so frustrating!

underwater sunlight Posted December 9, 2010 Share Posted December 9, 2010 playing a game with arsenal against man city at the emirates. man city take the lead, i bring it back to 1-1, at half time i'm losing 3-1, tell the team to do it for the fans and win the game 6-3. still in shock Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevvy Posted December 9, 2010 Share Posted December 9, 2010 I was gutted, as a Norwich fan, we were 1 minute away from hosting Droylsden, and probably a live TV date!!! Not with you being the home team. Had you been at home to Droylsden, you wouldn't have been on TV, I'm absolutely certain of that (there's a few other better for TV games that haven't been picked). If Droylsden were the home team, you'd have half a chance, but not with you being the home team. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

pelicanstuff Posted December 9, 2010 Share Posted December 9, 2010 Just played an FA Trophy tie where my Woking team was 2-0 down away at Eastbourne Borough after 10 minutes, turned it around to win 6-2, managed to miss a penalty as well. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
IMT Posted December 9, 2010 Share Posted December 9, 2010 Hosting Droylsden which are a Conference North team you might have a live TV date, hosting Leyton which are a League 1 team you won't? Yeah, the TV stations usually televise the lowest team left, especially if they are playing a biggish side (which I think we can class ourselves as), hense why our game away to Paulton Rovers last year was televised, everyone wants to see that big upset. Norwich v Orient is just a bit meh to non Norwich or Orient supporters. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
