The Help Thread

Help a newbie?

Hi, first time with FM since a flutter in 08 and i'm really trying to get into and perhaps it's just teething problems but I need some guidance because i'm getting thrashed in every game. I'm Sheff U, not a bad team but not great, playoff standard I reckon and I've tried my own tactics, played a bit with the different team instructions, even tried downloading so called amazing goals galore tactics from here but nothing seems to stop the fact that i'm getting cained every week - played about 15 games so far, bottom of the table.

From looking at match stats each game, pretty much every game, with whatever tactic i choose, the opposition gets over 10 shots, sometimes near 16, while i rarely get over 7 per match. The opposition always seems to score on their first attack or within 5 mins and if i've managed to hold out 0-0 or a draw for most of the game but i'm being beasted on shots i've noticed a canny and annoying trait that the computer seems to give them a goal in OT.

I'm not looking for a miracle cure as I want to develop my own skill on the game just some starter pointers would be great please?
 
Ok just got football manager and im going to start with sunderland and i am wondering what players should i buy?
 
Im currently trying to bring the Soviet Union back into the game, with all the nations that have come from the USSR (Russia, Latvia etc) I have made them as non-existent as I can on the editor as you cant delete them, and have made the USSR's information very similar to Russia's, reputation etc, but when I went to load the db I got a crash dump every time (Tried about 8 times), I checked the changes and everything and it all seemed to be fine so I cant work out why it hasnt worked, any ideas why ?
 
Hi everyone, can someone please tell me how to turn of the results popup window in fm 2011

Thanks

Edit: just saw the last line. Well, cant really tell you much without seeing your tactic

Unsubscribe it. There is a star to the top right of the results screen. Click on it and it should work.... i think:)
 
Hello, Im using this tactic - its attached , but my players do over 30 fouls per game, atleast 2 of them get red cards and 4 other players get yellow. It sucks , i even put the tackling on more cautious, and they mainly get the red card at 80+ , so can someone configure it so they do foul but lesser, and more proper tackling.. Thanks.,

Real Madrid.

Pepe = Red Card , every 4 matches, and yellow every match.
Raul Albiol - Yellow every match.
Ronaldo = Red card one time, yellow every 3 matches.
 
I in the teamtalk screen have accidentally put the subs above the players! any help how to change it back? (screenie attached below)
 
First, sorry about my english.

You know, there is a new clause in contracts "sueldo tras xx partidos de liga con el equipo" I think this could be "wage after XX league matches" in english.

My question: is about matches with first team? or if player plays with te U-20 team, the wage will grow up after this matches?

Thanks
