If its their first offence, then its a warning, second = weeks wage, third = weeks wage, forth = 2 weeks wages and dropped from the team.

I just noticed that the manager stats now go up and down :cool:

Rob Ban Fan 01-15-2004 12:58 PM

<font face=verdana size=3 color="#ff6600">none of my goalkeepers like me. I fined my #1 because he was always putting in shite performances and costing me matches and the other one is mad because ages ago he was whinging that I don't play him. And my best defender got injured :(</font>

Mr. Monday Morning 01-15-2004 01:10 PM

Started a new game on this machine as Chelski (:$ - my Wolves game is on my other machine at home)

Signed Lucio, Thuram and Malbranque...Tuncay chose Newcastle instead :mad: And Arsenal kept bumping their price for Ljungberg :mad:

Couple other suggestions for slightly lesser known players...Joaquin is about the best right winger in the game, although Mancini (Roma) cuts him very close - have to wait a couple years for Mancini though because to start you won't get a work permit for him.

Solari at Real Madrid is class if you can pry him away :y:

The Mask 01-15-2004 06:29 PM

i think warnings are worse than fines.

warnings are like "one more and you're out" and they stress out hardcore over it

Cactus Sid 01-15-2004 06:46 PM

I'm starting a game as Leeds.

Cactus Sid 01-15-2004 06:51 PM

WOW.

I just saw a player say he would play on after announcing retirement.

Mr. Monday Morning 01-16-2004 08:31 AM

I had that in my Wolves game.

I signed a Mexican guy, then after I'd signed him he said he was going to retire (at 31) :|

Then I asked him to reconsider, he said yes, and for some reason his work permit disappeared so I couldn't play him :| :rant:

Cactus Sid 01-16-2004 09:16 AM

HAVE IT, beat Man U 4-1 in my first game as Leeds boss

Wengerland 01-16-2004 12:47 PM

If anyone is still interested in that Online game then i might be able to in about a week or so,just got a new PC so i just have to get the game and then i can.

Cactus Sid 01-16-2004 03:31 PM

I found that I can't :mad:

I've been trying to have an online game with my mate for a while, but it didn't work, so its a no no from me :(

The Mask 01-16-2004 04:01 PM

got knocked out of the FA cup 3rd round by fulham :'(

but i'm morecambe and I got a hot payoff from ticket sales for it, so I'm not too fussed.

Still top of the leeeague.

Disturbed316 01-23-2004 11:37 AM

OMG I have to move to Maine Road for a year because they are converting Old Trafford into a covered stadium :'(

Plus due to my extravagant spending last season I only get £17mil to spend this season :'(

Wengerland 01-23-2004 12:11 PM

Maine Road? Isn't the City of Manchester Stadium on there?

Anyway,SSSSSSSSSS just got the game,can't play it till tomorow though as the comp i'm on now won't be good enough for it to run.:(

So yeah i'll be ok to play the online thing with anyone pritty soon.

You don't actually move to Maine Road though. I get that every season when I try to build up OT but you end up playing at OT anyways.

City of Manchester is in the game.

Cactus Sid 01-24-2004 09:40 AM

My Leeds team is kicking ass right now, the loan "cheat" thing (which doesn't always work, so I've decided it isn't a cheat, just team stupidity) has given me some quality players, Baros, Carew and Smith are a quality trio of strikers

Rob 01-24-2004 09:53 AM

What loan cheat thing is this then?

Cactus Sid 01-24-2004 10:09 AM

Basically you get someone in on loan, but offer the club £0 to pay at anytime during the loan. Some clubs are stupid enough to accept, and if they wanna sign for you, you get them for nothing

But try Convey(unless thats what you meant).I found that Brian McBride isn't on it either,or at least i dont think so. :(

Disturbed316 01-28-2004 12:48 PM

ssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss Freddy Adu rules so much :love:

Got him for £2m (fuc</>king rip off) but he scored the winner and got an 8 against Arsenal in the Charity Shield :D

Cactus Sid 01-29-2004 11:19 AM

I love this game

After taking Torquay to the Champions League in my second season in the Premiership, I quit, just wasn't interested in being Torquay anymore

SO, I stayed unemployed for about a year, then the Spurs job was insecure, I immediatly declared my interest, the next day the manager got sacked and they brought me in on the same day :cool:

Rob 01-31-2004 02:23 PM

i found an update patch with a few more American players in it including Mr Bobby Convey so I'm happy now.

Wengerland 01-31-2004 02:30 PM

Chelsea 0 Leicester 1 on the opening day.

Gladly trade it for decent league form.:'(

Cactus Sid 02-03-2004 03:31 PM

Ah sh</>it, I hope mine doesn't crash, I just spent ages updating it, and added McBride and Bocanegra to the game :|

If it works though, I came up with a clever way to give Ferdinand his drugs ban, well not entirely clever, but it might work, so just gotta hope, also if it does work, there is then a chance that people will get drugs bans in the game, but it'll be like difficult, so its realistic

please explain?

Cactus Sid 02-03-2004 03:56 PM

I'll explain it if it works, the only problem is that for some reason, all the players on my game have the same first names, and really stupid second names now, so I gotta fix it.

Cactus Sid 02-03-2004 03:59 PM

It didn't work, and now my games fu</>cked :mad:

Yeah often when I edit players to put them at the proper teams it then messes the whole thing up, you get loads of Runtime errors. :mad:

Cactus Sid 02-03-2004 07:39 PM

I can't even download an update, everytime I do it, it just comes up with a little XP error window

Dazz 02-03-2004 08:02 PM

Yeah, the patches on their official site sucks aswell, it corrupted my Millwall game when I was in my 11th season. I was doing so well too. :'(

Cactus Sid 02-03-2004 08:19 PM

I think I'm actually gonna buy the game tomorrow, see if it works with the real version

Rob 02-04-2004 01:56 PM

Just signed Theirry Henry for the massive sum of.... £0! Yep not a penny. He was available on a Bosman and I knew they'd resign him so I bidded for him every single week until Jan 1 and I stole him! Stupid Arsenal. Maybe they should have taken the £226 million package I offered (well they wouldn't have got it since I only had £40 mill but stiil)

Disturbed316 02-05-2004 01:44 PM

Oh my god

Just three games into the season and Freddy Adu scores what is bound to be goal of the season :eek:

Shot from the edge of the center circle, straight in :cool: :cool: :cool:

Adu is da man, and he's only 15. Bless.

Cactus Sid 02-05-2004 04:37 PM

Ha ha, it works now :cool:

Cactus Sid 02-05-2004 04:37 PM

But not the Rio thing, still working on that

Disturbed316 02-05-2004 04:49 PM

Still in shock about Adu's WONDER goal :$

Cactus Sid 02-05-2004 07:20 PM

Just started a new game up with all the updates (but no Ferdinand drugs thing :mad: it might work with other people at some point though)

Anyway, Everton had to mock me by offering Nigel Martyn for one of my players :mad:

Cactus Sid 02-06-2004 11:21 AM

Well, its not perfect, but I have added the drugs ban to the game, Ferdinand doesn't have it, but Dominic Matteo has just been banned for 10 months

Wengerland 02-06-2004 11:27 AM

lol @ Matteo.

Cactus Sid 02-06-2004 11:33 AM

It just comes up like its an internal injury so basically it says he's been diagnosed with an f.a drugs test in which he has been found guilty of an offence

Obviously I'll have to clean up the sentence a little, but its pretty good none the less.

Cactus Sid 02-06-2004 11:35 AM

Yeah, worked it out, in future it'll say, for example

Manchester United defender Rio Ferdinand will be out for about 8 months after being diagnosed with failing or refusing to take an F.A drugs test

Cactus Sid 02-06-2004 02:43 PM

LOL

The irony, that on my game.... Titov has been found guilty of a drugs offence

The Mask 02-06-2004 02:54 PM

diagnosied :p

Cactus Sid 02-06-2004 03:05 PM

ah yes..... but you'll find that's an error with the game and not my spelling

When I added the Drugs Ban to the injury list on the editor (I put it over Radiotherapy) the sentence I had was "with an F.A drugs test in which he has been found guilty of an offence" seeing as how putting diagnosed in the sentence makes no sense

Cactus Sid 02-06-2004 03:54 PM

Decided to start a game with Arsenal, seeing as I can't remember doing that since 01/02

Wengerland 02-07-2004 03:00 PM

doing ok as Leicester.12th with about 9 games to go.

Title race is pritty good but then Henry is going to Man Utd,so they'll end up with RvN,Henry,Anelka and Saha(who is currently on loan to me).:drool:

packt up 02-09-2004 02:18 AM

I'm playing two player (same computer) game in Italy at the moment.

My friend is doing way better than me but just a few things to point out.

Diego is amazing for Santos - 15mil but hes amazing and like 18 or something at the start.

Mahdivikia is a worldclass winger available for free after first season.

My friend got Henry free after first season :(.

And also Adu doesn't seem to be about in my game :(.

The Mask 02-09-2004 03:11 AM

I got to the FA cup final while in division 3. I jobbed 2-1 to arsenal, which isn't bad but still :'(

The Mask 02-09-2004 03:21 AM

I got to the FA cup final while in division 3. I jobbed 2-1 to arsenal, which isn't bad but still :'(

Managed to beat sunderland and blackburn amongst others on the way there, although the peak of my season would probably be:

http://www.boomspeed.com/themask/WOOOOOOO.JPG

and I got £1m for losing in the FA cup final, so my balance went from like 100k to 4m with all the competitions :love:

Cactus Sid 02-09-2004 05:58 AM

:clap:

That's pretty damn impressive, although I beat them 2-1 at Plainmoor when I was a division 3 club.

My Arsenal game is beyond sanity, in my first 11 premiership games, I have won 11 and only conceded 1 goal

Dazz 02-09-2004 07:05 AM

Yeah that is impressive. Even just getting to the quarters is hard enough, but just losing in the final, damn thats good.

Cactus Sid 02-09-2004 07:19 AM

Bellamy's been given a drugs ban, he's out for 10 months

also, it turns out I'm in the UEFA cup what with arsenal being in the champions league and stuff. a division 2 uefa cup team, who'da thunkit.

Against red star :$

Cactus Sid 02-09-2004 09:32 AM

That is insane

LMAO @ it saying "That's His First Goal For Morecambe"

Paranoid Rattlesnake 02-09-2004 10:29 AM

Right I'M leeds and I need some players suggesting. I'm skint so i'm on frees and loans or lower division greats.

I've offloaded viduka, matteo and some other jabronis. I need some decent defenders as i'm mid table at the moment and I'm starting to leak goals

Cactus Sid 02-09-2004 10:52 AM

Use the loan cheat I suggested at the top of the last page, and if you can, sign Stephen Pearson

Cactus Sid 02-09-2004 11:00 AM

LMFAO on 2 different games Matteo has failed a drugs test

Mr. Monday Morning 02-10-2004 09:52 AM

YES Pearson is the goods, I signed him for Chelsea for like £250,000 and his value went up to £2.something million overnight, and he's dominating the reserves right now.

Cactus Sid 02-10-2004 09:56 AM

I updated my game, and now he plays for Celtic :'(

I was happy, until my game crashed a minute ago, so I dunno where I've got it saved until :mad:

Mr. Monday Morning 02-10-2004 10:38 AM

The Mask 02-10-2004 11:14 AM

alright, i trashed red star, something like 15-3 agg :$

lost 4-3 to anderlecht in the first leg of the second round though. 3 away goals mind :love:

Cactus Sid 02-10-2004 11:21 AM

15-3? WTF

Mr. Monday Morning 02-10-2004 03:45 PM

Red Star of what country :wtf:

Rob 02-10-2004 03:49 PM

In my last 5 games, I've had a 7-0 against Birmingham in the league with my reserve strikers playing (Saha and Forlan) and then a 9-0 next game against Galatasary in the Champions League followedby a 10-0 in the next Champions League game against some Swedish team.

There's a Red Star from France i should think,not checked but they were on my old version so they should be.I would imagine Mask means the Belgrade one,seeing as the French Red Star are in the lower leagues.

I'm pritty pissed off right now though,i'd just finished my first season on the game with Leicester,finished 7th in the league and made some decent bosman signings,also a good season all round as the premiership title race went down to last day with all of the big 3 being able to win it(Chelsea did in the end) and relegation scrap was amazing as on last day Wolves were gonna survive but then Charlton scored a last minute goal in another game and Wolves conceded one themselves to go down(MMM:().sO,I save the game and everything,and as i'm on my way to my dads(where the game is as other comp isn't good enough to run it) he says he's rebooted the PC cause it wasn't working that well,so now i've lost that game and all the edited stuff.:'(

yeah, red star belgrade :$

when I go home this weekend, someone remind me and i'll try and save the highlights up again.

For those of you in lower leagues, I reccomend trying to pick up Jamie Mullen from man utd on a free if they let him go. He does this weird thing where he legs it up the flank, until he's almost at the corner flag, then runs up towards the goal, at a tight angle and then smacks it into the roof of the net. Beautiful :'(

The Mask 02-11-2004 02:23 PM

I signed some ecuadoran... cevallos or something in goal. he's about 34 in my game, so he must be about 31 at the beginning, he's class :'(

alright, man utd won the double this year (premiership and CL :cool:!!!)

I managed to get morcambe promoted to division one, I have a huge amount of awesome youth players and some great older guys too.

Also, the guy I sold at the start of my division 3 campaign for £200,000 or so I managed to buy back for about 50k, which is good cause he's awesome.

I got trounced 6-1 in the FA cup by arsenal though, and I lost in the 3rd or fourth round of the uefa cup to chievo, i forget which.

Oh yeah, I won the FA vans trophy or whatever it's called, and I managed to walk the second division. It never even looked like anyone was gonna come close, which is cool cause i was like 55-1 to gain promotion at the beginning of the season.

RAAR

The Mask 02-15-2004 08:59 PM

oh yeah, forgot to mention, I've just been appointed england manager, whatuuuup

deathtrap 02-16-2004 03:51 AM

I'll post my 00/01 stats.

I have settled in at Chelsea after ruining Man U(yes), and I am starting my second season.
I came runner up in the FA Cup Final AET and runner up in the league, which was between me and Arsenal. I would've won if Arsenal(who I wasn't playing) hadn't scored in extra time:'(
Manager of The Month.
Zola in Team of The Year
Sold Cudicini, babyaro, Knight and Ferrer for £8mil.
Bought Notman, Tudor, Dida, Ronaldinho, Osman for £8mil. Dida, Osman and Ronaldinho were free

Wengerland 02-16-2004 07:43 AM

ssssssssss,won the F.A Cup in second season(first Leicester manager to do so:shifty:)

Finished 8th in the league aswell.

Also,if your looking for a good player try Kasey Wehrman from Lillestrom,he's fairly cheap and after 1 season he is out of contract in the January so he would only cost about 350k if you wanted him in teh summer.

Wengerland 02-20-2004 05:31 AM

Ok,Sid how did you get the England manager sacked? The one on my game is now someone called John Carver who was managing West Brom and even they were about 20th in Division 1 and at England under him they didn't even get to the play offs of the world cup qualifying.

Considering they won Euro 2004 i want to take over to restore some pride.:'(

Cactus Sid 02-20-2004 05:32 AM

I didn't get the England manager sacked, the F.A just sacked him after they didn't win a game at Euro 2004.
