Just load up the Blue Square North and South and see who is predicted to finish bottom of the table in them, then take your pick from those two.

[The Munchies]

I dont have the game so im asking someone to look for me and tell me who it is please.

[Gazz]

It's Vauxhall in the BSN and Thurrock in the BSS.

[Benji]

Anyone interested in trying to join me in a network game? One of us Rangers, the other Celtic, or something similar where we'd be the same league and play each other four times a season? Also, how do you set one up? >_>

[9 to 5]

Setting one up is easy, as long as you have patience they can work very well.

[Benji]

Is it just me, or is this game obsessed with drawing you in the cup against a team you were due to face anyway the week before/after the cup tie.

Just whooped Chelsea's ass 0-3 with my mighty mighty Wigan.

Wigan. We aren't boring anymore.

[Gazz]

Everyone beats Chelsea.

Beat Guangzhou, then brag.

I've been playing as Wigan.

Constant top 4 team in 2020, some kid called Niang is an absolute beast for us.

Mbaye Niang, confirmed FM12 megabeast

[Jimmy]

How're are you already in 2012?

And I love the idea of a network game, but our 4 way attempt at one was terrible because it was so slow. Maybe it'll work better on the new game, in which case, I'm up for trying it.

I still wanna try a FM draft. I just know nothing about database editing.

I would highly suggest Gary Hooper and Tom Cairney to any mid table club in the Premiership. I bought Hooper from Celtic in January for my West Brom side and he was disappointing, scoring 2 in 16. But this season, parterned with Michael Owen (who has, himself, scored 6 goals and racked up a few assists), he's scored something like 11 in 13 starts, including a hat trick against Man United. Cairney I bought at the start of my second season after he was the championship's overall best player. Picked him up for 4mil and he's got 7 assists or so already as my game approaches Christmas. My whole side looks very different to a normal West Brom side, with only Jonas Olsson retaining a usual starting position, with Brunt, Sharner and Shane Long making sporadic appearances. Currently 7th and hoping to get a spot in Europe this year.

2020 Yeah, Niang was the first new wonderkid I noticed in FM. What a beast.

[Baddar]

If he's in 2020, chances are he skipped a year or five before jumping in.

I still haven't got this, mainly because I didn't put much into 2011. I did have a semi-successful net game with my mate, and games of that kind are the only thing that would make me want to buy 2012, I think. It's 100x more fun with a friend.

Went into Gamestop yesterday to maybe get this and saw that it had an hillariously high price tag of €45. I mean charging that much for it is just asking for piracy. Not a hope I'm paying that much with Uncharted, Assasain's Creed and MW3 all on the list before it.

Might have to look into this whole Steam thing for the first time and forgo a physical copy. Does Steam make the game any different at all? I'd hate to think too that someday my internet craps out and I can't play FM, that'd annoy me.

I checked the price of it in HMV on Friday and it was €34.99. So yeah, go there.

"Christophe Lollichon has noticed that Romelu Lukaku is currently unhappy about his training workload."

Oh here we go...same old wah wah wah about lessening the load but no actual clue about what level the lazy tosser would actually be happy with. I went through weeks of this with Sturridge.

"He feels the current workload is on the low side and you should look to give him more to do."

...

...

Romelu, have I ever told you that I love you?

[Gazz]

"Christophe Lollichon has noticed that Romelu Lukaku is currently unhappy about his training workload."

(Aggressively) And?

48 million not enough?!
