Football Manager is THE best game goin! Been plain this since the day it came out, CLASS!!! Playin with Man Utd (of course!) at the mo! Try Emilio Nsue & Mika Aaritalo, theyre 2 gud young players who wont cost u much!
I will believe Detox when I hear a single for it and have the album in my hands.

It's great

I've played two seasons with Villa now...

First season:
Fifth in the league
Won the league cup

Second season:
Second in the league
Won the Uefa-cup
Won the FA cup

Oh, and Obafemi Martins is a great buy! Even tho he costed me like fifteen million pounds. He put 28 PL goals in the second season! And Scott Carson is  a keeper you definately should check out... I'm not even gonna say how much it cost me to keep him after the first season (had him on loan first).

I've been playing CM since 95 I guess... that's when my uncle got the family's first decent computer ;D I don't remember if it was the 93/94 version or the 94/95, but it was the "original" game layout (before the CM2-layout, think that one started with the 95/96 game), we had three versions of it, the english, italian and Norwegian.

Since then I played all the games up until CM 01/02, then I fell off the circuit until now... And now I'm back on FM2008, and it's great ;D

Yeah Championship manager 3 was my first one, not sure what year that was, 98/99 maybe? Champ 99/00 is defo my favourite, But the 2 after that were class too. Also football manager 2005 was cool 2 even though it took ages on my computer. After that my PC was too slow, had to wait til football manager for the 360. lol

I've dl the beta patch (8.0.1) but....
Something is really wrong with this game.

In 4 games with Rangers I've scored 12 and conceded 12  :o And I've scored several goals which was blown up for "offside" :-\
How do I lose for some Albanian team in the CL 2. qualification 8-8 on away goals :-X I won 6-4 at Ibrox
They need to patch up this shit fast as fuck!

I get hooked on these so easily. I was playing game with CSKA Moscow and I had won the league in my first season. Was in UEFA cup semi final and the Russia Cup semi final and my brother went and deleted the computer. Pissed me off so much.

I have had many long games on it with teams such as:

Everton
Man City
Real Betis

I try not to go the big teams. I did that enough on the Champ Manager series. Like on Champ man 99, all you had to do was go Real Madrid and you had an amazing team and about 50/60 million to spend. Boring really.
