Would you ever manage your rivals?

I support rangers and although i do like a good few celtic players and the way the play i couldnt do it haha!
 
I've only ever managed Pompey once, I lost a bet and as we didn't have money we had to take over our rivals.

I won the FA Cup in my 1st season which I found a little ironic as I was playin '07 which obv meant the final was the 2008 which they won lol Apart from that there wasn't really anythin of note
 
I wouldn't manage them for the simple fact they are just as **** as the team I support, but I wouldn't say I wouldn't want to because they are rivals.
 
I would never manage real or corinthians, but I've no problem in managing any other teams
 
Just to be a troll. I started a game with United, sold Vidic, Rooney, Nani, etc. Spent 40m bringing in studs like Ameobi (to be honest, I think I undervalued him), quit right after and watched them get relegated....
 
I haven't done it yet but ive been tempted to manage Spurs on occasion. They have quite a good squad.
 
Managed United once.. Got past the pre season and quit the save.
 
I have never managed my rivals, but I would manage them in-game, but only after I had managed every other club in the league and made them awesome...
 
No, and I'm too professional to join a club to intentionally do badly with them.

Upsetting But Yes Very Tempting With The Fianacial Situation And Players Tottenham Have
 
I've managed them all..

Hated being Liverpool, mainly because I couldn't get the formation and philosophy etc correct and results wouldn't follow. Also, as I'm listed as a Manchester United fan, the fans didn't like me too much and I was under more pressure. Also, didn't know who to sign and what was a good deal etc.

Didn't mind being City. I usually am City as one of my first games to get into it, with all their money etc it's easier to get used to the game and I can look for the youngsters/superstars for future games.

Can't be Chelsea, they're just not fun.

I actually rather enjoy being Arsenal, I like trying to get them to play the way they play in real life but making them more successful. In fact, I had an 8 season game with them on FM11 when I developed my tactic for them - only stopped playing it because 11.3 came out and I wanted to start a Manchester United game on that (into my 12th season on that now).
 
For me it can even amount to not managing the strong rivals (or at least arch-rivals in cases like in Italy where some teams hate half the country) of a side I've already been in that year/save.
 
i have it but i do sell all the good players then see if i can get them relegated lol
