Kris and Jakes Chairman Game - Registration & FAQ

[Kris]

So I have been sitting here at work, bored. Looking at the BBC website, reading about Notts County appointing Craig Short, when they were linked with Gareth Southgate and Paul Ince.

Liverpool linked with Martin O’Neil and Roy Hodgson and thinking ‘I would appoint better’

Then I started thinking about FM and it would be cool if we could be the chairman appointing the managers and it got me thinking...

So my idea is this, An Auction Game style situation where everyone becomes the chairman of a Premiership club, each club would be given certain budgets etc and it’s up to you how to assign them, how much do you give your manager for wages and transfers,.

Not doing well? Do you sack him and look to hire someone else? Does your target belong to someone else? Negotiate a fee with them directly.

I run the whole thing via my PC and update weekly (FM weeks) and use FMRTE when needed, to sack/hire and sort budgets.

We all sit back and watch how our chosen managers sign players and lead our club's to glory or the pit of relegation.

See attached spreadsheets for club budgets.

Sounds like a great idea, and there is no reason for it not to be a success! If westham1995 has not claimed it officially, I'll take West Ham, but if he has, I'll take Man City

EDIT: Just realised you said Prem clubs. If you are looking for players I'd take Stoke

Can i have Arsenal?

 

[Kris]

Good idea, but how would bank balances and stuff work? (or are we using real clubs?)

I will need to sit and work out budget's for each club.

Obviously Man Utd and Chelsea will have to better Fulham and Portsmouth.

Yeah mate, sounds pretty clever.

I would want to play. I suggest alot of people would, use a post req or prem members if the numbers get too high?

Could I be say, Brum?

Yes the numbers might get high, I might even add the championship, if people don't bother with it then a board take over can be easily approved.
