Think this beauty of a game deserves a seperate thread as its a cmpletly different game than the last couple of years.

I downloaded mine at midnight andit's awesome!!! Had the usuall problem with Steam (couldent download it for over a hour) you need to have the the new Direct x installed and all the new windows updates, you also have to do something with the cache which can be found in the games properties. Pain in the ar*e!!!

However the game itself is fantastic imo, still getting to grips with it.

My Team is..

Queens Park Rangers - Cola Championship.

Received the DVD yesterday but couldn't register it because the activation code said it wouldn't work until 12 midnight.

From playing the demo a couple of weeks ago it's a more polished game with some great new features.

Dropped through my letterbox yesterday, so will take a look at it over the weekend.

How long before the SI forums are overwhelmed with bug reports?

I'm suprised they're not already.

Just wrestling with steam at the moment from my DVD copy. Says 4 minutes until the game launches, the problem is the seconds are taking minutes to expire. Friggin Steam!!

Sort it out SI!!!!!!!!!!!1

Hoping it will be sitting on the doormat tomorrow when I get home from Holiday.

I'll most probably picking a team form Blue Square North and seeing where it goes from there.

Getting it in the morning, gonna do some online games with guys from my old 6th form.

Us students are awesome like that

Pah, who needs FM2010, I'm still playing 07

First game underway. Started unemployed as usual and have landed the Chester city job so need to perform miracles to stay in the league. Lost the first game 2-1 after bossing it. Anyone found any lower league loanees?

Looks very good, the usual time to get used to new features/appearance but it'll be as addictive as ever! LOVE the new tactics creator.
