In to the League Cup Final against Newcastle with my now Championship Woking side! Things are going alright in the league too, 29 games played, Southampton are first with 68 points, then Peterborough are second on 52, Swansea are 6th on 47. I'm 5th on 48 and basically anything up to 2nd is still achievable.

Nice work Joer!

Moral question: If you win a game, then FM crashes, is it okay to keep repeating until you get the win you originally got?

I've actually had to change tactics for one player as he's in such good form. In his last five games, he's scored five goals and got four assists with an average rating of 8.20, I usually play 1 DM, 3 CM, 1 AMC and 1 ST, but because of this one regen RW, i'm playing a 4-5-1/4-3-3 thing when I don't even have a good LW. :lol:

Man of the Match? That Right Winger I changed tactics for. :lol: Had to stick Taraabt on the LW and he scored a cracking volley from a cross field long ball from Enrique.

EDIT: Oh yeah, Euro cup!

Rekik i've got on loan from a team two divisions below me because he didn't want to play for them anymore as they didn't match his ambitions. :lol: Ibrahim's my real star player though man, quality signing for lower leagues.

Just got an email from Sortitoutsi about the new facepack they've released. Decided to go for it so plunged for a year subscription. 4.6GB for the complete pack! If anyone else wants it when i'm done let me know and i'll lend ya my log in details for the premium download.

I might do if I can figure out a way to let FM use facepacks that aren't on the C:/ Drive.

So how do you freshen up a tactic? I've had the same one for 1.5 seasons now and we're dominating pretty much every game, but creating about 1 clear chance all game and the other team barely gets a look in. Should I try changing the tactic or do I need to mess with a few other things? I've changed around the passing style, directness, tempo etc...

I think i've like, broke my game...

I need to have at least Four players trained by me between the ages of 15th and 21st birthday and i've got 2 in my whole entire team. Auto-select on the squad doesn't do anything, I can't confirm or move on as it tells me I need at least four.

What can I do? :(

Oh, fixed it. Just had to leave the spaces blank to make up for the players not being there. No 35 year old Dario Srna in the Euro Cup then!

I think with that stuff you can sometime just "go on holiday" for a day and it kinda finds it's own fix.

Carling Cup and you're both going at it with a good side? I call shenanigans!

Made some decent signings for my team, I used a RTE to help me pick up some decent youngsters and managed to grab a couple who have a PA of 175+, but will take a while to get them there. Signed Gary Hooper as I really struggled for a goalscorer and since I went to school with him, figured it's the least I could do.

We are top of the league, say we are top of the league!Image

I figured I keep getting invited in to the reserve league, I might aswell put some players there. :lol: Besides, it's not cheating if you don't actually edit anything, right? It's just like a better version of my scouts. :shifty:
