My team of choice is Exeter City from League One. They're fucking horrible.

12/10/2009 5:42:48 PM

I like to roll with Brighton and Hove Albion Seagulls from League 1.

12/10/2009 5:51:39 PM

i'm always yeovil town from league 1, theyve been my team for like 7 years i think

12/10/2009 6:18:47 PM

League 1? You pussies.

I brought Notts County all the way from League 2 to the Prem on World Class. Ended up getting knocked out of first place in the last couple of games of the season, but still won the FA Cup against Chelsea after scoring in the 84th minute and then again in the 92nd for a 2-1 Cindarella win. Although I blew the league, I still got into the Champions League and will win the Prem this year. She will be mine. Oh yes, she will be mine.

I CANNOT FINISH FOR SHIT

12/11/2009 3:27:33 AM

Yeah, I should have been down 2-0 early in that game. Home field FTW.

I simmed a lot but I got Dagenham & Redbridge up to the Premiership. I'm a 5* rep but my starting funds are STILL only 2M pounds or so... how can you raise funds better? I have a pretty good scouting system developed and do decently well in developing talent.

I'm still barely hanging above the relegation zone and can't touch any of the Top 7 or 8 teams at all. I just want to buy one or two top talents but can't ever find the money or wages to pay them!

I've made bonkers money by selling guys my scout finds, like $15-20m per window. My position coaches are around a 6 or 7 and my guys are increasing 2-3 points per season. Most everyone is in the mid-80s overall now. I've been buying a guy here or there to fill some holes. Micah Richards is biggest splurge yet.

Epic finish to my first manager mode season. Looked like all was lost in the title race, but I won 8 straight to finish the season and overtake Chelsea on the final day. Finished with 87 points and Chelsea had 85. Now I play them for the FA Cup. After that it will be time to move on to some really shitty club to try and build them up.

I am currently trying to build Hereford (Coca Coca League 2, currently 17 IRL). I'm in my second year with them and hovering around 7/8th place. I finished the first year at 19. They were a bad team at 0.5 stars when I took them on.. it took a lot of gradual improvement just to get to where I am. Protip: take the sponsor who pays you a ton of cash upfront if you plan to take on a team that won't win a whole lot of games. I would do that over again if I could the first eyar.

Notts County

Currently on Season 6

Won:

Coca Cola League 2
Coca Cola League 1
Coca Cola Championship
FA Cup 2x
Carling Cup
Champions League
UEFA Super Cup
Community Shield 2x


YET I STILL CAN'T WIN THE DAMN PREMIERE LEAGUE.

World Class is no joke, I can't imagine what Legendary is like. I need a job, I play this game way too much.

I'm good with the New York Nightmare.

EDIT: Oh wait, that's in BLITZ. I was balling at FIFA '02 though. Manchester United and Van Nistolroy all day baby!!

Just picked this up at gamestop, they were selling it new for 49.99 and used for 54.99 lol

I play on professional because i've played it a few times before and know the basic controls, but don't really understand the different formations yet. I win most of my games, but want to get better so I can beat my friends that are pretty good... I get slaughtered online most of the time, what is a good way to get better other than just playing exhibition matches?

I am having a problem,

In manager mode I am almost the end of the first season with Newcastle.
Doing pretty well. About to win the league and in the semi's of FA Cup.

But none of my players will re-sign. I have a 9 negotiator, have offered raises and all of that good stuff. Not a huge deal, but would like to sign a few of them to sell in summer transfer window.

Any ideas of how to fix this?

Thanks.

You don't need to worry about that. When the season ends there will be a contract renewal screen and you can extend everyone with them even having a say.

1/4/2010 4:24:07 PM

cool thanks, I know in previous years, almost all agreed during the season for renewal.

1/4/2010 4:26:13 PM

I think your club prestige has a little to do with it as well...maybe that was just past years th0

1/4/2010 5:02:37 PM

I could never renew contracts in 09 but they always renewed at the end of the season. This season I haven't tried renewing any contracts but I've yet to find a guy that wouldn't resign with me.

According to Wikipedia, EA says all 199 countries that competed in 2010 qualification will be in the game.
