Smirking_Saint Posted 14 May, 2009 Share Posted 14 May, 2009 Hmm, since my move to Juventus, saints have been yo-yoing back and forth between about 7th to 10th place and guess who is in charge..... WGS. Still, enjoying life in Seria A at the moment, however my team does not appear to have a reserve team and so all my reserves and first team subs are lacking match practice........ poo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dicko Posted 14 May, 2009 Share Posted 14 May, 2009 I've just started with Dorchester in BSS. Came 6th, mainly thanks to Saints who let me have Kayne McLaggon on a season long loan - scored 23 goals Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WGS. Still, enjoying life in Seria A at the moment, however my team does not appear to have a reserve team and so all my reserves and first team subs are lacking match practice........ poo Yeah, this is the bad thing about managing a side in Italy is that they don't have a reserve league out there. I think you can play 2 or 3 players over 21 in the under 18's team or whatever it is though. Decided to play with Exeter recently, got them promoted to the CCC & got bored so now being Roma in Serie A. I like the update thing, saves searching around & signing the players so that you can match it with the real life squad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuperMikey Posted 15 May, 2009 Share Posted 15 May, 2009 could do with a striker CM and CB really Joe Lewis is quality Kepa - ST Fernando Soriano - D/MRC Arzu - CB All three are transfer listed at the start of the game and are available for around £2m each. Kepa scores bucketloads, Soriano is an absolute beast in midfield and Arzu is a good CCC CB, but plays better at DM at Prem level. Those three alone won me the CCC when I played with QPR.

Couldn't be bothered to start again, got a favourable takeover and didn't fancy more of the Lowe era !! Is he not ?? Strange that they would include a fake (albiet a quality one) As for the wages, no, but i am a safe mid-table european footballing team at the moment. A million miles from us now.

Andy_Porter Posted 24 May, 2009 Share Posted 24 May, 2009 It's not the first time someones got a fake player into the game. To Madiera was amazing in 01/02. from wiki: The 01/02 edition has not been without its critics however. Some have criticised the simple graphics, while others have complained about the difficulty (namely, the game being too easy). Another main reason for criticism was the existence of 'cheat players' - i.e. players whose abilities in the game are far greater than in real life, these players being inexpensive and very effective in game. An example of a cheat player is Tó Madeira, who is not actually a real life player. Others such as Maxim Tsigalko, Sergey Nikiforenko, Ibrahim Said and the infamous 'super Swedes' and 'super Greeks', whichwere found in the official cm0102v3968 update and were not part of the original database, i.e. Dionisis Chiotis, Stilianos Doukas, Giannis Kalogeras, Achileas Kourtoglou, Anastasios Skalidis, Alexandros Papadopoulos and Nikolaos Tobros were also over rated by a considerable amount, even though some of them aren't and never were real life players. Later some also discovered 'super Norwegians', i.e. Anders Matisen, Kristian Ravneng, Tom Arild Fredriksen, Ole Christian Andersen, Tommy Larsen, Henrik Martinsen, Stig Jensen and infamous Paal "Hyypia" Solie. Whilst non-real life players are considered cheating by the experienced players of CM 01/02, the "Super Greeks" and "Super Swedes", and other players such as Cherno Samba & Franco Costanzo are considered perfectly fine. For example the player Kim Källström was considered at the time to be vastly over-rated and would never amount to anything, yet recently has made a name for himself as "the Swedish Steven Gerrard."

Junior Mullet Posted 8 June, 2009 Share Posted 8 June, 2009 I managed to Eastleigh into the Prem in season 2025/2026. I then managed to keep them up by finishing 17th (and losing in the FA Cup Final after an easy run to get there) and this next season we are 11th with two months to go. By now all but one or two players are regens, which is the way I like it. Give me a couple of years to introduce a few more wonderkids to the team and the Spitfires should be absolutely flying.

I took Dorchester into L1 through the play-offs, but then lost my best 3 players in the close season when the Chairman stepped in & accepted the offers.
