CaptainPlanet Posted May 19, 2013 Share Posted May 19, 2013 I've started talking to the monitor during games... Just caught myself saying "well done son!" out loud after a goal. :o Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Furai Posted May 20, 2013 Share Posted May 20, 2013 I always find myself doing that! Nothing to be embarrassed about! I have a habit of quietly murmuring 'tackle' when my team don't have the ball. If we score I often find myself doing a mini fist pump and congratulating the player who scored (using their nickname I have given them of course!). If it is a really important goal I sometimes sing a little chant about the player who has scored. It all adds to the beauty of the game! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Suzie MUFC Posted May 20, 2013 Share Posted May 20, 2013 I've started talking to the monitor during games...Just caught myself saying "well done son!" out loud after a goal. :o Still playing FM09? One of the more positive moments I've had on FM13 (despite my moaning) was when I bought Lars Bender for United, and the second goal he scored was so good, I actually applauded. :o Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
pauladams84 Posted May 20, 2013 Share Posted May 20, 2013 Lol. I normally sit there pointing in direction of goal an sayin that way. You don't even wanna know what I'm like in a pen shoot out. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richey2008 Posted May 20, 2013 Share Posted May 20, 2013 After my pixels scored a goal against some other pixels in the last minute I yelled, "oh i love you" and my wife was bemused as to why i wasn't looking at her, but at my computer screen.

Haha they are't pixels in the game, in the game they are real life you enter the fm world to simulate your own nothing wrong with it;) I have mutterings to myself about players during matches Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

hugo_rune Posted May 21, 2013 Share Posted May 21, 2013 A couple of days ago, I criticised my captain, a regen centre-half who's played 200+ games for my team from the BSS up to League One, for a dodgy clearance. Using his first name. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jibby123 Posted August 27, 2013 Share Posted August 27, 2013 Playing the game is just about the only time I full on swear out loud in front of my children. The most disgusting words in the English language it is too. Not even real football on the tv brings out this maniac, monster raving up's and down's shouting/talking at a computer screen showing just a computer game.

karl b Posted August 27, 2013 Share Posted August 27, 2013 I have found myself fist pumping every goal and full on screaming at the screen and head in hands and merely conceding a goal even if we're 4-0 the laptop gets a good shouting at ! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carbs Posted August 27, 2013 Share Posted August 27, 2013 I've been watching my girlfriend's son's under 16 matches and found myself criticising out loud like I do watching FM and getting some odd looks from the kids' parents.
