dMw FANTASY FOOTBALL ANYONE?

[BigFatCat]

One free transfer a week (already used mine) and 4 pts each thereafter.

After a poor start, I feel better things are ahead.

[Blunt]

It's a funny old game innit.....

I find myself needing the arsenal to beat chelsea today to climb above the Flowers, Rizzy's Reds and scouse elite... <_<

1st time I ever wanted them to win anything :eyebrow:

how am I expeced to run a football teams under these conditions? :eyebrow:

Go on my lads. A fine performance, this time yesterday we were third....

[JB]

After doing so badly for the first 2 weeks I decided to have a major reshuffle, partly because both my keepers were injured and nearly 50% of the outfield players weren't actually playing.

So...

Kiely replaced by Robinson
Dudek replaced by Kirkland
Carvalho replaced by Cole
Giannakopoulos replaced by Barton
Wright-Phillips S replaced by Ljungberg
Flitcroft replaced by Tainio
Jenas replaced by Etherington

Cost me 28 points but what the hell, no play no pay.  
Do we just get the points the transfer's score from now on in?  Or do we inherit the scores from the previous weeks?  (that make sense to anyone else?)

[RizZy]

I'm guessing the points start from the 1st game they have for you, if you got the points they had previously then you could just pick all the good players from the last weeks matches.

I'm in the process of changing my team around a bit too, takes a while to do it though only changing one player at a time. I'm currently looking at swapping upto 5 players that are either crap/not playing or injured.

43 pts from my 1st match, I'm pretty pleased ;o)

Btw do any of you guys play FM2005 (used to CM series)? I've been playing it since CM1 on the amiga - so about 15+ years!! Jeez!

I don't play it as much now I've discovered DMW and BF2 but its bloody addictive!

I used to play the CM series religiously, I think I played them pretty much from the beggining, last version I activly played was a few seasons back, I'm guessing finding cs stunted my time on CM, although every season when a new version comes out I'm allways very tempted to get it.

Hi Rizzy the new Football Manager is even better, it just gets more and more addictive so far I've resisted playing it again - thats the problem though, so many good games to play and so little time - still retirement will be fun in oh 30 years  

[RizZy]

Yea, its something when the one ambition of your working life is to retire, another 30+ years for me too unfortunatly.
