Never play fm whilst a girl is flirting with you.

A) you will not win your home derby game due to the distraction

B) you won't get anyway with the girl

You can 't have you cake and eat it.
 
haha, that's what the holiday mode is for :p

fm is basically the biggest priority in my life. No-one can make go on holiday.

In less pathetic news I got frustrated last night. Poor run with stoke so changed things round, win 4 out of 5, the one I didn't win I got a last gasp equaliser at anfield.

Midway point of the season and my stoke team are in unbelievable form, won 5 out of 6I basically can't turn it down, no matter how much I know I am building at stoke.

I accept the offer. 6 weeks later and I'm still at stoke, awaiting my move. still in good form, lost 1 in 12 11 or something, but jsut want to move now.
 
haha, yes. fm is a very important priority in my life atm, more important than everything else pretty much atm and everyone tells me i spend too much playing the game.

And you got to love lower league managing. So many goals each game, so many dreadful misses and stupid goalkeeping mistakes and stupid tackles... not to mention playing 2 games a week. won every game, and my strikers are dominating. Martin Reilly has scored 9 goals and made 3 assists in 7 games while my other 2 strikers and my attacking mid are going good as well. playing a 4-2-1-3 formation, which fits my players in. annoyed that i can't find any good backup midfielders cheap.
 
away to wolves. Diame (my top scorer for the seasons, despite being my most defensive player outside the back for) was out injured, so played michael johnson who I got for free off city (that is to say I had a zero pound bid accepted, not that he was out of contract) Wolves are a minor rival of stoke on it, too.

he dives in two footed half an hour in. down to 10 men. they beat me 5-0 at home once in a game which I went down to 9 men, and it was this derby which finished 2-2 I was talking about not winning due to distractions earlier. So we have a lovely little rivalary brewing.

Anyway 10 men, away from home. Keep it tight all game. 90th minute Madjid Bougarha (who is immense, MOTM often, averaging like 7.5, also got on a free) webs one from 25 yard in injury time. off the post, off the back of the keeper and in. I went mental. could be my last kick before moving to juve too.
 
Finished in 6th place with Volendam and earned a very important EURO Vase place. Even though it isn't the Euro Cup, it is still European football. Mark Schwarzer has also retired in 2011 just before the Asian Cup which I am not happy about.

I'm playing on FM06 btw.
 
still haven't moved to juve. About 2 and a hald months after accepting the job offer. When I went on the juve squad I couldn't click apply for job, but could by rigth clicking on the team name.

baffling. Just hope I can at least get a new contract at stoke and I dont' keep auto-rejecting them and end up without a club. Chasing the uefa cup places now though, bought in some youngsters and rosicky for 550k (youngsters were both 16 cms, one for 4million from athletic bilbao who madrid were chasing and the other 250k from a no mark czech side) I'm still buying for the future of stoke despite leaving. consumate professional.
 
Which version of Windows should you be using in order to be able to install and play FM 11? Windows 7? :)
 
Anything from at least XP. It might even back date further than that, but it will be fine on 7.
 
Going to Wembley with Spurs. Thrashed Sunderland in the league cup semi-final. I reckon i could win my first trophy for spurs, in my first season. Also doing very well in the league (3rd) but City and liverpool are smashing it as well. Got through to the knockout stage of champions league and I've got Roma - not a bad draw, it could've been worse.
 
I'm on the same track, managed to beat Man Utd in the League Cup semi's with Everton. 1-1 at Goodison Park and then a 2-0 win at Old Trafford. Think I have Chelsea in the final, which unless they play their youngsters can't see me winning.

I got really lucky in a way. Well I managed to beat Arsenal on the way to the final; and all the other big teams got knocked out as well, and the other three semi finalists were Sunderland, Blackburn and Stoke I think. Some low level prem teams.
