    New Years Resolution - Quit Football Manager

    I've been here before, but I believe I have finally had enough of this. This random number generator just has too much control over my emotions and I'm over it. I'm sick of spending hours crafting tactics that will get me more posession, more pass completion, more ccc's when all my opponents...

    An absolute epic of a match

    Almost blew a fuse playing an FA cup semi-final against lowly Reading. The epitome of fluke scoring and bad defending, but an absolute epic match nonetheless. I was biting my nails for 10 minutes straight. Going down 0-3, 2 subs after 35 mins, pulling back to 3-3 then conceding an absolute...

    In Depth Head-to-Head tactic comparison (Lots of data and analysis)

    My boring intro (skip if you like) I am a relatively unknown member and I know my word probably doesn’t carry much weight around here, but ever since I first got thrashed 3-0 in FM 2012 I wanted to create a really strong tactic and win without too much hands-on managing later in the game. In a...

    Youth Development in 2012

    Since I haven't played a long save in FM2012 I haven't had the chance to bring a player through the youth system to the first team. I noticed a few new things though. As long as your players are in your youth team U18, U19 or w.e it happens to be, their training schedule is the youth schedule...

    Aguero - buy in first season?

    I just bought Aguero for 45 million by activating his release clause. It seems kind of silly that his clause is still active after he moved to Man City. I'm not complaining though, I think 45 mil is worth it, he is like a notch below Messi and i'm trying to train him to stop taking so many...

    TK's Wrecking Ball (4-5-1 Tactic)

    FM-BASE DOWNLOAD HERE Hey guys, I've been playing Fm12 for a few weeks now and FM in general since FM05. This year I have found it tough to win games and I've been finding more and more that my FM11 Tactics were not working. I also haven't found success with some of the more popular tactics...

I have a new stadium due 2024 and Training, Youth Facilities and Youth Recruitment network to upgrade on Oct 21, 2022...

    What's your longest trophy drought?

    I'm currently managing in Bulgaria with a custom team. I won promotion to top flight in my first season, after which I have endured 5 long trophyless seasons of mediocrity. I guess I handicapped myself too much, as I have the worst facilities, transfer and wage budget for 5 years running now...

    Too many training injuries

    I seem to be getting way too many training injuries at the moment I just created some new training schedules and put all my players on them. Initially i had 'heavy' schedules for all my players under 23 that still had room for development. It was a couple of notches below the 'very heavy'...

    Buying veterans just for tutoring

    Hey guys. With arsenal now in 2014-2015. I have a great young DM/M who is technically impressive, as well as very good in the tackle. I had fabregas tutor him, because I wanted him to have strong mental stats. The experience did not go well and he only manager to learn little. However that...

    From Bulgarian Minnows to Porto... and Beyond

    First of all, I am at a computer terminal at school and I still haven't figured out how to post my screenshots to an image-hosting site online, so screenshots will be coming soon. I started off my game with Rila (Belitsa), who are a Bulgarian amateur team, that no longer exist. Right off the...

    New chairman wants me gone!

    Hey guys, my team is currently in takeover talks and I'm dealing with transfer embargoes, no requests, etc. What's more worrying is that the new chairman announced that he plans to replace me with some unknown a**hole manager if the bid is successful. I am currently untouchable and i am on a...

    Why I love FM2010 and will never go back to FM2009

    I just recently made the switch to the newer version, not wanting to leave my 11 season career behind in FM09. Boy was I crazy to wait. Having just recently switched a lot of the difference are still fresh in my mind and I want to share why I love the newer version. Heading: Heading is no...

    Conceding too many goals from crosses

    Hey guys, new to the forums, but have been playing FM since 2005. I just recently got FM2010 and the new way it handles tactics has left me a little confused. I started with a team in Bulgaria (where I am from) and I am playing in the "Western B" Group. Using the Tactics creator I created an...
