Dude, I'd like to play from the situation you are in. I mean the match against Milan. So can you PM me the savegame before the milan match? Do - or - die one?
 
In fact no more updates for a while. I'm done with FM12!!
 
Just so many parts of the game are pants imo. Tired of making three subs then boom, someone will get injured or sent off!
 
OK after taking several deep breaths and counting to 10 I reloaded FM12. I started this save in the demo and am determined to get to Old Trafford!

We look increasingly likely to retain our SPL crown on current form. However, this period was not without its set backs. Needing a win to qualify from our Champions League group we could only manage a 1-1 draw with AC Milan. (I say, 'only' but for a SPL club we've overachieved massively!). As such, we finished 3rd in the group and so enter the Europa League.

Without doubt the biggest disappointment was the semi final defeat to Dunfermline in the League Cup. I'd have loved a domestic treble to boost the reputation. However the squad was on its knees by the end of January with games Saturday/Tuesday/Saturday/Tuesday throughout the month.

Elsewhere, Man Utd stood 3rd in the EPL but with a media prediction of only 4th I cant see Emre being sacked anytime soon.​

We've absolutely blew the SPL away to open up a huge 17 point lead at the top of the table, including a sensational 7-1 hammering of nearest rivals Celtic. Progress into the Scottish Cup semi final sets us up for a possible domestic double.

On the downside we lost out to Leverkusen in an epic tussle. Perhaps had we kept 11 men on the field both games we may have snook through.

Star Player

Benjamin Kawalya

Bought in January for £110,000 Kawalya has destroyed teams on his own. Scored hattricks against Hearts and Celtic and scored 4 of our 7 goals against Leverkusen.

Oh and Man Utd have hit a sticky run of form and have dropped down to 4th. If they drop any further manager Emre's job could come under threat

Final SPL Table

We absolutely destroyed the SPL this year. No team could compete with us. Most wins. Most goals. Best defence. And over 100 points! Surely our friends at Old Trafford will have noticed that!

Unfortunately we couldn't add any cups to our league triumph, falling at the semi final stage in both. I was particularly disappointed with the Scottish Cup loss to Celtic given our previous two meetings in the league ended in 7-1 and 4-1 victories.

Elsewhere......

A certain Manchester-based manager is under ever-growing pressure, not helped by a Mr Alex Ferguson expressing an interest in his job (this didn't go down too well with the Aberdeen board or fans though lol).
