I am finally going to buy FM this weekend.

I think I will start with Manchester City, but not be silly with money. I never like wasting money, but I do like the look of starting with some good players, and I will turn them into a bigger footballing power than Barcelona and Real. I'll try and buy Neymar at some point, and get rid of tevez.

Anyone got any hints or tips, or any suggestions of any other teams I could start with etc

Go for a decent, ambitious lower division side (Crawley would be a good shout), and then go with it and see how it goes.....Will be more fun and feel more of an acheivement when you get them into the Premier League.

I'm still doing FM11....Went with Chesterfield in League 2, now in 7th season and we are a solid mid table Premier side, with some good signings.

Best advice if you decide to go this way is look out for quality free transfers from the bigger clubs on the 1st July of each year.....You can get some really good (unrealistic!!) signings this way and they go a long way to having success.






And so you aim towards the sky,
And you'll rise high today,
Fly away, Far away,
Far from pain....

Fleetwood. Your stadium holds you back quite quickly but you can still get to Championship level pretty easily. Good starting players, decent amount of money for the lower leagues etc etc.

Currently mid table prem with a new 18k stadium.

Think I might go with Boca Juniors or try and get River plate back up etc.

I presume a few of the Brazilian teams have quite alot of money to play with etc.

I heard a russian team has limitless amount of money practically.

I'll keep you updated who I decide to go with in the end.

Get those right and you've done half the job. Winning the league second season with Everton is easy, which is ridiculous.


A few of my players handed in transfer requests as they weren't getting in the side. I told them I would try and get them a move away but in January nobody wanted them. Not exactly my fault. They of course kicked up a stink which effected the morale of everyone else. Add to that a mini injury crisis and a few last minute defeats and voila - about as much morale as a Chinese sweat shop. 1 win in 15 and despite being in 14th place it was 'on yer bike'

They ended up being relegated and I've just completed the double over them as I sit top of the Championship with Swansea.

So, now folk have had time to digest it...

I've got FM11 updated to the end of the transfer window in August 2011. Is it worth moving to FM12 just to experience the new features etc, or am I better off keeping my money in my pocket and sticking with FM11?

Get fm 2012. Move with the times Gilder.

We can play online. Can you still do that?
I will be Boca, you can be River Plate. We will send each other threats throughout the whole game, and make it as 'real as possible'. I will also throw anything I can get my hands on, and the riot police will be outside my house viewing the computer at all times just making sure the game passes off peacefully.

Occasionally......I'm in my eighth season with Chesterfield, third season in the Premier League, semis of the FA Cup, semis of the Europa League, about to play Inter!!

Biggest problem is getting the real top players to join me.....Most won't even discuss a contract, never mind turn it down!!.....Any advice?






And so you aim towards the sky,
And you'll rise high today,
Fly away, Far away,
Far from pain....
