Jarrow Roofing Posted September 9, 2008 Share Posted September 9, 2008 I have prepared a report, but it looks rubbish posted. Please download this file if you are interested to see if how my season went: http://www.megaupload.com/?d=RO1TKVT8 If it asks what program to open with, it's Microsoft Word. Ridley, I have three players out on loan. Can I release them and replace them with free signings? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ComeontheArsenal Posted September 9, 2008 Share Posted September 9, 2008 Lol I was SACKED so no recovering Errr, try again maybe? It is a very hard challenge. Did you check your squad numbers? If you have less than 36 you can get free agents, eg - Jo, Carson etc Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jarrow Roofing Posted September 9, 2008 Author Share Posted September 9, 2008 Yeah I will. I have three players out on loan so I'm hoping Ridley will let me release them. To get Jo, Carson and a CB maybe Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

crickie Posted September 9, 2008 Share Posted September 9, 2008 Yeah I will. I have three players out on loan so I'm hoping Ridley will let me release them. To get Jo, Carson and a CB maybe what about steven pienaar? i had 1 free pick but as i had tim howard and jussi i didnt get carson or jo as his stats didn't look brill so i got pienaar and he doing ok so far.

ComeontheArsenal Posted September 9, 2008 Share Posted September 9, 2008 What tactic are you using? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jarrow Roofing Posted September 9, 2008 Author Share Posted September 9, 2008 3-5-2 Attacking, Short Passes, Pressing Yes. No change to any player instructions. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ComeontheArsenal Posted September 9, 2008 Share Posted September 9, 2008 You could try TheBugels 4-4-2 tactic, use the home one all the time though the away one isn't very good. I use it most of the time, i'm currently top of the table by 3 points with 5 games left in Ridley's challenge. Try it, here's the link http://files.filefront.com/Thebugels+Tacticszip/;9202077;/fileinfo.html Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

crickie Posted September 9, 2008 Share Posted September 9, 2008 ive just had a look at your team. tbh you havent got a brilliant strike force have you although you have got some great midfielders Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jarrow Roofing Posted September 9, 2008 Author Share Posted September 9, 2008 Not as good as Highbury FC! Have you seen their Midfield? Very jelous. That's why I need Ridley to let me release the loaned out player (as their loan is out of my hands) so i can get Jo. I would also get Casron and make Alnwick his cover because I only have one keeper.

ComeontheArsenal Posted September 9, 2008 Share Posted September 9, 2008 Hehe, yeah it's not bad, Elano and Quaresma have been on fire for me this season. Still, I think there are quite a few better teams than mine! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jarrow Roofing Posted September 10, 2008 Author Share Posted September 10, 2008 Attempt 2 - Sacked in January Attempt 3 - Sacked in December (using The Bugels 442H) Attempt 4 - I know it won't count but I'm gonna try JamboDave's 352 and see if my team can actually string together two wins in a row...

Jarrow Roofing Posted September 10, 2008 Author Share Posted September 10, 2008 Gonna give it a couple more shots tomorrow without unlockables, seriously though I must have the worst team, the only sucess I have seen is the FA Cup win, but they mostly get relegeated.

Jarrow Roofing Posted September 11, 2008 Author Share Posted September 11, 2008 Ok I have made up a ridiculous formation and it seem to be working, I actually won 2 in a row and rest mid table - The best start yet! My formation 3-1-4-1-1 (RB, CB, LB, RM, CM, CM, LM, LAM, ST) All my tactics force the ball down the left so it's really strong, while the right is still good because it still has a normal amount of players. Will update later, hopefully there will be no sacking this time Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
St.Dazzle Posted September 11, 2008 Share Posted September 11, 2008 If you still can't find a tactic to work try Saint Dazzle's 4-5-1 in the Tactic's for 08 thread. Whos in your whole squad? Just wishing I was involved in this challenge! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jarrow Roofing Posted September 11, 2008 Author Share Posted September 11, 2008 Yay - Not sacked after a full season! Boo - Relegated in 20th (on last day of season, 5 could go down) Yay - Ridley got relegated with me Boo - Board wants the title Yay - 2nd after 6 games Boo - Player retiring and I don't know how to stop him Yay - Players have returned from loan Boo - They are crap too Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jarrow Roofing Posted September 11, 2008 Author Share Posted September 11, 2008 BTW COTA, you walked about three quarters of the way through the season - How could you!!! PJ was sacked too and Tony Bainbridge (my clone) took over from COTA Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ComeontheArsenal Posted September 11, 2008 Share Posted September 11, 2008 Hmmm it seems i'm a real quitter in a lot of people's games. I'm not really like that!! Also to stop them retiring go on the profile, and on the contract screen it where it says retiring click on it and you can ask them to postpone it.

Jarrow Roofing Posted September 11, 2008 Author Share Posted September 11, 2008 Grrr declined, Ridley can I replace him when he retires? He said he wanted to quit in his prime - he's 36 and rubbish Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ComeontheArsenal Posted September 11, 2008 Share Posted September 11, 2008 I think you should be allowed to replace him with someone good with the trouble your having, where are you most lacking? Up front, in midfield, defence? It's up to Ridley but i'm sure he'd let you. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jarrow Roofing Posted September 11, 2008 Author Share Posted September 11, 2008 My Midfield is fine (for now), defence isn't great but it's not too bad. i would choose att but I only have one keeper and he was injured for 3 months last season with Downing in goal I was relegated.
