[treva]

awesome mate, thats the sort of thing we need

if anyone is up for holidaying to xmas (or last 10-5 games) of the first season and setting a challenge, uploading the game then please do.

Here you go: http://www.megaupload.com/?d=GDT7V2J7

I dunno if it'll work with updates though as I don't have any. If so you have the choice of the Premiership, Championship, League 1, League 2 and Blue Square Prem.

Because they are the last English team to reach the final of the Champions League (They won it as well ) and that was some 50-odd years ago

What? The massives have never reached the final of the Champions League, never mind won it. Many English sides have won it since then:

United twice
Liverpool (obviously more than once but I dont want to say how many)
Aston Villa
Nottingham Forest twice

City have won the Cup winners cup, but thats nowhere near the European Cup.

Mate i'm talking about the save file i posted a page back

Bugger.

I'll get my coat...

 

[Kiko_97]

I have the 2008/2009 kit pack for FM08
(i got it off sortitoutsi.net but i'll upload here as an attatchment to reduce download trouble etc.)

 

[Mad Snake]

why are you uploading it here?
pretty sure most of us have updated kits..

 

[Mr. Kurns]

I know I don't, I still have lest seasons kits, and they'll be a help for me, but I can't be bothered etm to get them

 

[King Pietersen]

Anyone want possibly the best skin to ever grace the game of FM ? Well, it's here. Download.

I've been playing a fair bit of FM recently, completed a whole season with Spurs on the FM Weegie Update. I secured 4th place above Arsenal in the first season, and am pushing for the title 2nd season, but Everton are in immense form. What you think of my team:

GK: Akinfeev
LB: Bale
RB: Balzaretti
CB: Gonzalo Rodriguez
CB: Chivu

CM: Jenas
CM: Modric

AMR: Bentley
AML: Simao/Dos Santos/

ST: Berbatov
ST: Zaraté (24 goals in 23 games after signing for £8.75m)

My team have a chance of challenging for the title you reckon ? Where do I need to improve ?

 

[Mr. Kurns]

That's a mad squad there Dan, what back-up do you have?

 

[King Pietersen]

My back-ups include:
Antonio Valencia
Michael Dawson
Gomes
Jonathan Woodgate
Felipe
Maniche
Vagner Love
Mohamadou Sahko
Mario Balotelli
Tom Huddlestone

I've sold alot of players to pay for that squad, the money for getting 4th and getting in the champions league helped also. I've sold Bent, Hutton, Kaboul, Rocha, Stalteri, Gardner, King, O'Hara, Ghaly, Lennon, Lee Young Pyo and a few others. Managed to get ?14million from Villa for Alan Hutton =D

solid to say the least
