Well, for the last 3 days (not inclusive of today) I’ve been playing FM2006 none stop pretty much. This is my mates game on the Xbox360 that I borrowed last in October 2006, wanting to play it again with the current football season approaching I re-borrowed it and as a result any semblance of a life I had left went out with it… again. I always seem to forget JUST how addictive it is, no wonder it’s the cause of divorces etc..
If any of you are wondering why I am playing 2006 instead of 2007 it’s purely because I had already started a season in 2006… and because no one I know owns 2007 :p.
I’ve currently got a pretty strong squad for Man Utd through legitimate means, though I am also managing AC Milan (Italy), Lyon (France) and Munich (German) for the 5 different leages achievement (I’ve already done Spain). I’m also managing Brazil and England
. Eventually when I have the foreign seasons won I will do some dodgy deals (Juninho Pernumbacano, Kaka, Kompany, Pirlo, Shevchenko and Dida are being eyed up at the moment :p).
Legitimately I have signed Anderson, Messi, Tevez, Guarin, Zigic for Man Utd and Kompany for Munich.
Anyway, I’m going back to my game, ciao!




I don’t think I could manage that much at once!
) and that’s enough as it is.
I’m managing Chelsea at the moment (yes, boo, spit etc
Although think I’ll need to manage an international team soon too, if anyone will ever take me. Silly really, I’ve won countless leagues and cups yet no one wants me to manage any international teams! Grrrr.
Oh great, even typing about it is making me want to go back to it, aaaargh no FM2007 don’t rule my life like crack.
I got Hartlepool promoted 2 seasons running and despite only being in the Championship I was given the England job on FM2007. Alternately you could just add a new user.
Bleh! Premier Manager 1 & 2 on the Atari ST ftw! \o
Oh, I spent about 2-3yrs on the above titles until college reared it’s ugly head
Could never get into these types of games tbh.
Guarin and Kompany are two of the best youngsters in FM, Carlos Vela and Anthony Vanden Borre are probably my other two favourites.
I’ve got 3 of them at the moment, only Vela who I don’t.
My squad is seriously big and I’ve turned down offers of £43m for C.Ronaldo and £28m for Gilardino :p
