I couldn't play for long - so I would have done the Holiday thing. So I wasn't too fussed that you all weren't on :))

Nice One :DD
 
On the site tim gave theres a megapack for ALL the teams logos in the game.

This Mega Pack contains "Shiny" logos of all playable leagues of the game. This includes club logos, competition logos of all competitions and all nations as well as tournaments. Each logo is Huge in size, normal and small. In addition, there are many Lower Leagues as well as logos of leagues and clubs are not playable.

Well done Mr Coopz :))

EDIT: God knows why I've just started downloading them on my PC though when FM is on my laptop :DOH: :LOL:. I'll just have to transfer them across my home network when downloaded!

They are definitely worth it. I haven't checked but I think I've got the same ones or similar to what he posted and I find it hard to play the game with out all the logos and kits etc. They're a must for me.
 
Becanes - Yes mate, the 2 packs Coopz posted links to are absolutely perfect :TU:. I would highly recommend them both! My game looks so much better now more or less every team has a logo and kit :)).

Played more of our FM last night, I seem to have hit a dodgy patch. My team is just so inconsistent and that's what annoys me. I win 5-2 then lose 1-0. The loss was to the 2nd place team, but they are highly overachieving so I could have beaten them. In some games I haven't even had a shot on bloody target! I play a normal 4-4-2, nothing bizarre or special. Any hints/tips?
 
I think you have to use arrows really, especially with the formation I play. Something like:

--------- ST --------
---W-----AM------W---
------MC----MC-------
---FB-----------FB---
-------DC---DC-------

In that formation, I have both wingers running to the space where my striker is, to give the striker options to pass. I have the full-backs running into the space where the wingers originally should be. I have one of the centre mids on a farrow to the AM slot, and a MC dropping into the defensive mid hole. Occasionally I'll have my AMC running into the striker slot too.

Works well and won me the Champions League with Atletico Madrid as well as finishing in the top four for four consecutive seasons (missing out on the league title by two points in my final season).

There you go mate, might take your team some time to get used to it but I was fairly successful with Atletico Madrid, as you can see ;))
 
Holk fook :CONFUSE: That's adventurous! See I would be scared to try something like that as I think it would leave me to exposed at the back :anx:. I will definately experiment though and find what works best, thanks mate :)).
 
Actually it's slightly different, drop the WB's into FB slots. But the midfield and forward are the same.
 
im doin shit

19 games gone and im 18th or something

but most of this happened while i was on holiday and Joe and Rob left so its played 8-9 of our games without us there!!

they were 5th and 6th when i got back and i was 19th or something. Im gonna get the chop very very soon
 
Well, Dags you are a foot!!! (Leg-end ;))) I have played around and this is my new formation for Tenerife:

I have played 3 games since doing it. The first one was against Cadiz who are about 6th and I was away and lost 1-0. For that game Abel was actually at CM, since this game I moved him forward to CAM. It was a dull game and I only had 4 shots total. So my thinking was moving him forward would make me a bit more creative and it worked! Next game was a "fans day" meaning a kid gets in for half price with a full paying adult! I treated them to a brilliant 3-1 win over Ejido, with Nino scoring a hat trick :w00t:. The next game was at home to top of the league Celta de Vigo. It was the best match of the season, even though I lost it 3-2! Abel scored a brilliant free kick, and I had a goal disallowed in the 93rd minute for offside! It was offside too, so no complaints. I had 20 shots and Celta had 19!

So thank you once again Mr Dags :)). Next season I'm gonna get my groundsman to make my pitch as wide as possible. I like the wings!
 
Im getting better

hammered a couple of teams and got a few 1-0 wins but my last match i lost away to Plymouth who are 22nd

they stopped my 6 game winning streak :((
 
The two games last night I played I had a 3-3 and a 4-4.

I was 3-0 down the first one and 2-0 on the second.

The second was against Joe - it was a great game.

But I want to start scoring goals without conceding a couple first :ROLL:
 
Work Permit question:

I bought Didier Zakora and his work permit was rejected on appeal. He has the required amount of days in Belgium already and it says he is considering citizenship. How can I get him the work permit and get him playing? I need him.
