Championship Manager 03/04
Anybody bought this game yet?
I have an although its really really good it just hasn't gripped me like say 01/02. Can't really explain why either everything points to it being superior. ![]() Won Premiership in first season as Newcastle and now 3rd or something a third through the second. Any opinions? |

![]() I tried to sign Alan Smith at the January window and offered up to £20 million and got knocked back. So Leeds went into administration and I took him for £250,000 (and I probably could have got him cheaper!) ![]() |

*Bump*
How's everyone doing then? I picked it up for Christmas and am liking it so far...though Wolves still can't keep a f>ucking clean sheet ![]() ![]() Where does the media interaction come in? Cause I haven't seen much so far apart from declaring interest in a player. I did get a pat on the back from the marketing director for signing a Korean player though since it'll boost merch sales in the far east ![]() *Waits for Leeds to go into administration* |

Its still quite buggy, not quite as bad as CM4 was but it still aint great in that respect.
All in all though its still a fine game, but personally I prefer 01/02, I can't quite put my finger on why, maybe its just the good memories that came from that game. If you don't have CM4 and can't be bothered to update your old databases manually CM03/04 is still worth a squirt though. |

No only bad thing I find with the game is occasionally, if you make a subsitution, you end up with the player still on the pitch, but kind of lying on the floor.
Also, just knocked CSKA Sofia out of the Uefa Cup with Torquay ![]() |

What division are you in with Torquay Sid?
Anyway,keep on not saving,which looking back was kinda stupid having drew away at Real Madrid,beaten Deportivo at home and then beaten Valencia away.I guess i was so mad after losing to the side second from bottom. At least now i can choose between signing Guti and Frank Lampard,but i don't know who ![]() ![]() |

I'm in Div 2, I've played 1 Full Season, and if I remember correctly its February in my second season. I'm 5th in Div 2 with 4 games in hand, which if I get 10 points from I'll go top, and if I get 6 points I'll go second.

Yeah it's a 4-4-2,both are out of favour and interested in moving to me atm.I sort of have one centre midfielder going back to just infront of the back 4 and the other just normal with my 2 wide players,Zenden and this amazing Italian called Di Michele,to go forward,with the Italian sort of going in behind the attack from out wide.
I'll probably go with Lampard,what with him being the man right now and so i wouldn't be the only Englishmen at the club. |

Well Lampard just scored an overhead kick against me, so I would choose him.
But we still beat Newcastle 4-2 in the first leg of the League Cup Semi ![]() |

RIGHT.
Reccomend me some world class players for if you're a uber team, like united, and some good unknown talent for if you're a jobber conference team, like morecambe ![]() |

*Checks game* Tuncay is an uber-forward for Newcastle in the game I'm playing right now. Lucio (at Leverkusen to start) is a farking great centreback too. Should be able to pick them both up for less than £40m |

Yes, Tuncay is unbelievable. Lucio has a release clause of like 11.5 million or something, and was just voted World Player Of The Year, bloody good prospect.
