       Football Manager

       So with FM14 just around the corner and with the Beta out
       already, it's time to get stuck into some Football Manager
       goodness.
       Maybe have a post with your career in it and then we can just
       chat about the game.

       So is this just for FM14, or whatever incarnation we happen to
       on?

       Wolfsburg
       Current Season 1 (March)
       Current Position 3rd
       Cups Semis of German Cup (to be played)
       Transfers In Beister
       Transfers Out -
       Looks like I will be making the Champions League next season as
       I have a 9 point cushion to 4th (Schalke) although Bayern and
       BVB are running away with the title.  Only brought in Beister at
       the start of the season and no-one in January as finances are a
       bit tight. Going to lose my star men Diego and Olic on frees in
       the summer after their bastard agents demanded to much and their
       contracts expire this summer.  But CL football should improve
       the financial position and allow me to replace them.
       Highlight of the season so far must be an 84th minute freekick
       winner by a youth players (Arnold) against Bayern.

       Since there is a thread for this when I was a kid I never had a
       PC but one of my mates did & he had a very early version of
       Champ Man  :o
       Matt Le Tissier was king back then & we managed Man Utd iirc we
       signed 'LeGod' & played him upfront with Cantona & Kanchelskis
       on the wing
       What a side !!!
       I used to head round most nights & I think we played about 20
       seasons before we got bored & resigned
       In another summer holiday/week end venture shortly after the
       Fifa International Soccer game was released on the mega drive we
       'Co-oped' although it wasn't even referred to as that back then,
       a German career for ourselves. I can still remember Picknell &
       Plank (what great German names  :D ) we did World Cup draws,
       qualifiers the whole works
       Being an adult is 5hit.  :D

       Best player I ever signed on Champ was without doubt Cherno
       Samba.  Guy was a goal machine.

       Ahh the Football Manager games back on PS1 and PS2 were epic.  I
       remember you could save your FM05 career for example and then
       play the actual game in fifa 05.  Only problem was it took about
       20 minutes to export the game each time
