People play FM the way they want to. Even if they love cheating or play it straight forward. It's a game. Don't play moral police mate.
Proud Gloucester manager (english league 6),
aaaaaaand back with an update of how things are going. So after hard first season I was able to sign few brilliant players on preseason, also I had all summer to adapt my players with this new tactic and playing philosophy. Currently Ive played 12 league matches and I sit on 13th place with 4 wins 5 draws and 3 losses, I see real potential here and my main problems seems to be defending corners, opponents score a lot there and when Im winning I tend to give it away, also crosses are hard for my defenders. At the same time, I must admit that defense is my weakest link even on paper.
Anyway Im pretty pleased with how things are going, all the pressure of last year is gone, I dont have to be afraid of relegation as things stand and I only see an improvement here as the matches look good for me, its just the results that are not really reflecting this.
Offtopic part dont read if your not interested
Oh and I have to tell you all this even if its bit offtopic. Football is so beautiful at times and full of emotions. Well I was qualifying for FA cup, 4 th round q, I put my best eleven out there because I wanted to succeed, team could have used the money from cup games and maybe on next round I get lucky and get away match with a big club.
Anyway my opponent was one league step higher but I felt confident, I knew that on a good day I could pickpocket it and it was my home match, I anticipated good things, air felt light and everything looked ready. It was a very even match but I felt like I deserved a win, eventually it ended 1-1 and there was a reply. Now things were not as bright to start with as it was a stronger team and an away match so I really had to perform this time. Well match started and a big moist fish hit me right on my face with a red card right at the 15th minute, this was it surely? I had to take striker off? nonono, I cant lose my only striker and one of the big players on my team, what do I have to lose? "DMC get over here, lets continue fellas, just focus!" I had nothing to lose and we had to remain a threat. To my surprise my players were really playing well, I didnt have too much to worry, except the lack of goals but in the 88th minute opponent got a red card for taking my strikers shirt off when he would have been alone with the keeper, outside the box freekick did nothing this time so we headed for extra time.
Extra time didnt offer much but on the 115th minute I had a dejavu, again my fast striker was gonna brake trough and opponent was this time hanging on his boots and referee send him off. I felt proud, I was thinking, okey most likely penalties but if I lost there it was okey, cant really do much there. Just before penalties I had a fantastic scoring opportunity but my player hit the post! Penalties it was and I eventually lost with final 5th penalty taker after opponent missed their 2nd kick and gave me a real possibility.
Well sorry for a long post and all but I really liked that match, it had real emotion and football feeling all over it with lots of turns from a feeling where youve lost all hope to a feeling where you suddenly again see an open door.
Thanks all for a very nice thread and good feedback especially ofcourse Koflok, I cant understand how you are able to come up with a very good and successful tactic so soon after the release. Ive done these switches to original first post tactic and I look forward to continue my season from here and I keep posting how things develop:
1. Drill cross
2. Standard mentality
3. Normal d-line
4. Full back man mark - no tight - tackle normal (against crossing)
5. Central def man mark - tight
6. More direct passing style for attacking players
7. Man mark on defending corners (to concede less goals from corner)
Edit: Oh and this just in! After tweaking their tactics, on Gloucesters first match they dominated 3rd placed Bostin Utd! 2-0 home win with 62-38 posession and 10-8 shots, visitors didnt really pose any threat, very interesting to see where they go from here!

I can't seem to download the tactic. It says:

2. If you are trying to post, the administrator may have disabled your account, or it may be awaiting activation.

I can download from the download sections of FMBase, and apparantly I can write comments as well. So why is this? Any chance I can get the tactic some other way if I don't find any solution to this problem?

I do not. I don't really care how someone plays his/her game. The fact is they are yelling useless stuff and the thread gets flooded by responses which are totally useless.
Please be patient. A moderator needs to approve the download, as has been stated numerous times by now.
I'm getting a little worried about the % of literate people here
Read the last post of Koflok.I will tell everybody once more
Mods have to approve the mod first, because Koflok made some changes in the text. Please be patient for a while.
Sorry, I haven't read through the whole nine pages, just some of them.
But at the first page under DOWNLOAD GOALS GALORE 2011 v0 - BETA VERSION it does not state that you can't download the tactic yet, so I must be forgiven... just a bit. Well anyway also the last post it seemed to me suggested that v1 or something was the one waiting approval.
---------- Post added at 12:08 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:07 AM ----------
AHA! Now I understand. There is hope in the world after all.

Also, the reasons I got when I tried to download the tactic was not that the file itself was waiting moderation. Only that I couldn't...

there seem to be a lot of elitists on this forum who believe they are some 'higher' power (perhaps because in real life they have little) anyway it is so refreshing to see that koflok is not one of them!
good on him!
because if anyone has the right to be arrogant it is him after his results!!!
just because people are new does not make them less worthy please remember this everyone, we don't want some sort of elitist hierarchy
developing!

Very off-topic, but while we wait, how can I see every leagues ratings when playing the game? I could only see the World Cup, Champions League and European Championship (top three) but not any other league (granted I only had Hong Kong league loaded but I want to check ratings to those leagues as well).

Read, please.
No can do, because Koflok doesn't want the tactic to go into the wild yet.
Sorry just got back from somewhere 
I've messaged the admin and I thought it would be reapproved by now since a new tactic has just been approved.
then again i guess i will have to wait for a while
stupid me :S
since everybody is demanding it, i'll edit the first post. added a mirror link at mediafire for now
