    The Story of How you got Sacked

    Well I started my game in the 10/11 season as Darlington. Things didn't go to plan and we ended up finishing about 9th, which is quite bad as we were expected to challenge for promotion. Towards the end of the season I was getting threats along the lines of 'a bad result in todays match could...

    FM on new laptop...

    Well ive finally bought a new laptop.. FM11 is running super smooth, with graphics on high and looks beautiful. However, I dont know if it is how my new laptop works, or because it is windows 7.. but I can no longer use the F3/F4 keys etc to quickly switch between the screens in FM like I could...

    Player interaction a pain!

    Yeah its very annoying. Plus - ignoring all private chat is not good either. It decreases your stats and that bar that shows how much you interact with players etc... Its a right pain. Ive lost 1 good player to it now, and nearly another (luckily he accepted a new contract offer from me) which...

    Hi, I have placed one of my players Kevin Austin on the transfer list, and status set to not needed as hes been playing and **** and literally isnt needed. Another player I regard well comes to me to chat saying that he is unhappy. So I start the chat and it turns out he is concerned as he...

    Game wont open when offline

    Agreed with Death Ball. I have bought all my previous versions of FM and played them on steam (08, 9, 10 & now 11), so trust me you do NOT need an internet connection. What I do is.. Have a shortcut on your desktop for the actual game. I open up steam and when it says you have no internet...

    Players away on International Duty... very annoying!!

    Hi, The majority of my players are uncapped... I manage to buy a good player (Chris James), but only a few months into the season I havent been able to play him on around 4 occasions as hes been away with the international squad. This may sound silly.. but.. is there anyway I can withdraw him...
