All-Nighter Thread!! [Player Naming]

Unlucky mate. That sort of thing gets on my nerves. :mad:

Yeaa, just have to take it on the chin and prepare for the next match, no amount of moaning will do anything to change it.

Who knows maybe next time a crap ref makes crap decisions in my favour instead?

These things even themselves out over the course of a season...

Well, that's what we're told anyway. Never seems like that on FM09 though :thdn:

Oh ok, so your not a diehard United fan just more of a neutral, sounds fair enough. Thanks for the explanation. I wish there was more girls like you!

When I got into United (in 1994 when I was 13) I was really into them. Bought all the shirts, the official magazines, still got a whole ton of their videos on my shelf which I still love watching. On top of that, David Beckham became my favourite player. Never been to a match in my life, though. To me it's just about watching a great team play beautiful football, which is the same feeling I get when I watch old footage of Liverpool from the 70's and 80's.

And it's not about the glory. Another reason I got fed up with United was that they were winning everything - that can get very boring, so I wanted Liverpool to win more because they hadn't won a league title since 1990. Kind of an underdog thing (if you can call Liverpool underdogs!).

Darn, no automatic promotion for me. :(

I'm not sure which point I'd be more gutted about: the lack of automatic promotion, or the fact that because of this, it means having to get out a rulebook the size of a telephone directory for a small eastern European country.

Quick update before I turn in: in our first 6 league games, we've won every single one and only conceded 1 goal, with a goal difference of +14. On top of that, our main striker has scored 8 goals, plus 2 in a cup game, and got a hat-trick in the first 16 minutes of our last match. It's all ridiculously brilliant, and I put it down to my 4-1-4-1 tactic. Technically a 5-5 system (5 defending, 5 attacking), the midfield drops back to defend, resulting in a 9 man defence. And when we attack, they bomb forward giving 5 men in and around the penalty area. I'm rather proud of it. :D

Currently doing my Britsh Project with Arsenal. After this aggregate result, I think I need to improve my defence a wee bit.

Athletico Madrid 3 - 3 Arsenal

Arsenal 4 - 1 Athletico Madrid

Arsenal 7 - 4 Athletico Madrid.

All their goals came from corners.

I lost a week of game time last night due to a power cut :(

Ergh, happened to me a couple of weeks ago.

Going to be restarting yet again - the slowness of FM09 is starting to bug me again, so I'll be making a game with a lot less leagues.

Shame, as we were still 2nd from top in November.

Damn, never had a free signing become a wonderkid before.

Send him over to Grimsby ;)

Just signed Ramsey from Arsenal for 6.25 needed a quality centre mid whos a good passer and he fit the bill perfectly, surprised to see him unhappy at arsenal due to not playing but they have a lot of quality so cant blame them for not playing him.
