    Idiot defenders. 0-0 against Celtic on 88 mins, a great result as I would maintain my 7p gap over them in the league. Then my bonehead defender decides "Oh what the ****, I'll just kick the ball back into my own box where there's two Celtic strikers unmarked". 0-1. Thanks, moron.

    New stadia FMC 99p on Steam and i got a new stadium of.....1! one capacity!

    "A lot of fans are thought to be going to the 1 capacity ground, although the game is not expected to be sold-out".

    Egos...?

    Me neither, as it pretty much results in one player looking motivated and the rest keeps playing Angry Birds on their iPhones (atleast, that's what I presume they do when I don't get a reaction). Don't think I've used it at all this season (in December right now), but instead as I wrote above...

    Egos...?

    I've noted different team talks result in very different reactions from the players. If I go on a passionate "This is for the fans!" the players hardly care at all. But if I go for a calm/assertive "If we play our game, we'll win", the players relax, and then I follow up with a calm/assertive...

    Rangers, in 1st division, looking for a couple of decent players

    Picked up Gustav Svensson (DM) as a free transfer, he's been a revelation with a 7.70 average rating. But since you don't use a DM, that won't help you much. I see you don't have Dorin Goian left in your team either, he's an absolute beast at CB. Go look for Henri Lotiés from PSG (picked him...

    Biggest upset you've seen?

    Apologies if this thread exists elsewhere, if it did, I didn't find it when searching for it. Anyways, what's the biggest upset you've seen? I saw Celtic getting knock out of the Scottish Cup by SD3-side Stenhousemuir 2-0 the other day. Probably the biggest one I've seen in Fm13. Also, I...

    Post Your Successes

    Yesterday I wrote about my ****-up in the Frustrations-thread, where I had beaten a very strong CSKA Moscow side with my Rangers team to progress to the last qualifying round for the Europa League. Only to forget to save the **** game when I went to bed afterwards. Got home from work yesterday...

    Rangers

    I have a regen that I snapped upp when he was 16 as well, he's been tearing the Scottish defences a new one every season so far. Absolutely brilliant lad.

    Rangers

    About to start my second season in the PL, walked the first two seasons, won the first division with 7 points (Falkirk put up a really good fight), then finished second in the SPL 10 p behind Celtic last year, with a Cup double to boot. No tycoons here though, got measly transfer budgets, but...

    Post Your Frustrations

    Managed to beat CSKA Moscow in the Euro League qualifiers with 3-2 on aggregate. Only to forget to save the **** game afterwards. Sort it out Grobbelaar! I'm an idiot.

    How to get my very talented youngster to develop into a world class footballer?

    'lo. A couple of seasons ago I snapped up a talented youngster called Allan Harriott on a free transfer from Ebbsfleet (I'm playing as Rangers). During his first season i SD2 he bagged 14 goals in 19 games (as a 16-year old kid), went on to bag another 20 in the first division + cups the second...

    Adboards

    I'm probably a complete idiot, but I can't seem to find the adboards on sortitoutsi?

    Good team for beginner?

    Rangers. Premier league team in the third division. Remember the one year transfer embargo during the first year, though. Regardless of that, you should be able to walk the league your first season.
