Linfield Fc Posted November 2, 2008 Share Posted November 2, 2008 Intro For FM08..... Wandsfan93 and I have made a database where we have swapped the Hong Kong league with the American Samoan FA Soccer League to make it playable by using the data editor. The Aim The Aim of this challenge is to win the the Oceania Club Championship and the league with any of the teams playable in the American Samoan League. But thats not it you will also be managing the American Samoa International Team and you will have to try and win the world cup with them. This Challlenge is very hard as ive been the national team before and only won twice in three years. You could even make it harder by playing with one of the newly promoted teams by holidaying a season. Tips+Info At the start of the game chose to be the manager of the national team and then apply for the job at one of the club teams as they are all managerless When you get enough money upgrade your youth and training facilities as this will improve the regen standard and get better players for the national team PanSa Fc have 250 reputation , Konika has 100 and all the rest of the teams have 50 reputation There are some decent Hong Kong players for the league standard at lower league teams Use Player Search filter as your scouts are pretty bad. Get decent staff for your club and national team You play 18 matches in the league due to there only being 10 teams These clubs value range from 5-12k It may be better to play a defensive formation with the national team as they get hammered alot thye are famous for the 31-0 thrasing they got from Austraila Load all American Samoan players http://www.megaupload.com/?d=05BN4EHJ To download the file: 1.

Guest roberto922 Posted November 2, 2008 Share Posted November 2, 2008 Pretty good challenge, only problem is that alot of people have basically stopped playing FM 08 now, if I was you I'd repost this when 09 comes out? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heartwork Posted November 2, 2008 Share Posted November 2, 2008 Yeah, well I made this for a laugh a while back, and I'm guessing Linfield thought it was a good idea to make a sort of "last hoorah" challenge. 09 will have this, as at least 1 of us will make it. Besides, I have a low-end computer at home which is slow enough as it is, and FM09 may not help, so I'll probably have to save up to get some more RAM.

If you want, you could just list it, but I had: Pago Pago - Green/white quaters Leone Lions - orange/black hoops Pago Eagles - blue with white/red double stripe down left.
