How Are You Doing On CM?

[Neil Pickup]

We stayed up and finished 14th, England had a dismal Brazil 2014, I now have £19m in the bank, have signed a few players, have a £3.9m transfer budget and can pay people £22k/week (up from 7.5k). Yay.

On the other hand, our stadium has been cut in capacity temporarily to expand it by 3-4,000 seats... Yay

First season with Plymouth Argyle in the old division two..

Have a revamp upfront, sign Grazioli from Bristol, and Kitson..

Anyway we concede fewest goals in the league thanks to Romain Larrieu who we persuaded to stay on, even though, in truth he is way better than div two..

Lowly mid table, until a massive end of season surge had us finish fourth, playoffs against Barnsley finish 3-3 and 1-0 to them.. Not a happy chappy.

Still we, with Gillingham are by far the best team for the coming season, and we have gone four games so far without conceding a goal.. Our training centre is the envy of the division and we have some quality youth coming through..

I have worked out a way to cheat yourself to people like Ronaldinho, Henry etc. but obviously doing it is cheating and defeats the purpose of playing the game,

Just like to ask: What the hell is CM??????

 

[Craig]

Championship Manager.

It is a game for all of us who like soccer (or the correct and proper term is football).

 

[Peanutbutterbar]

Aren't you from the Gold Coast Craig? That's not really the soccer capital of the world.

im playing with Porto on 01/02 at the moment, after 8 seasons ive won the title once, come 2nd 6 times and come third once, best effort in the champions league was in 07/08 where we made the semi finals, losing to Brondby, Roma dominate the competition anyway, in the 8 seasons they have won it 6 times and been runners up once, the other time they only made the quarters

My best players at the moment are Anelka who is approaching 200 goals for the club, last season was his best year with 41 goals and 20 assists in 51 games. Pablo Aimar is my AMC and does a handy job, Ive got a gun Left back from my academy who is already a first team player at 18, my goalkeeper and captain is Peter Cech. My B team has progressed to the second divisions, however they came 2nd in their first season but arent allowed to be promoted and they won it in their 2nd season up there, but still cant come up
they also did well to reach the cup final 2 seasons back, last season there was a massive clash in the cup 6th round with Porto beating Porto B 4-0...

 

[Peanutbutterbar]

What type of game is this? An internet one?

 

[Simon]

what do u mean what type of game is this, it was fairly well answered with

[Peanutbutterbar]

No I mean is it a PC or PS2 game, or something like ICC.

 

[Simon]

No I mean is it a PC or PS2 game, or something like ICC.

All versions are on PC, however some were also brought out on Xbox but apparently they end after 20 seasons or something like that, while on PC u can go as far as the space and memory on your computer will allow...

 

[Peanutbutterbar]

Ok I get it now. Where can you get this game? Any video game place?

Football Manager 2005 is the one to get at the moment, the only other one you can get in Australia at the moment is 99/00, i saw it in Harvey Norman the other day for $10...
You could be lucky to pick em up from EB Games or revolution CD, theres also always plenty on Ebay...

 

[Peanutbutterbar]

Ok thanks, I'll try and get it.

Just out of interest, has anybody gone through the same problem I have with me having to get rid of all CD burners on my computer yet it it still won't load?

It annoys me that they could at least say so in the instruction manuel or on the box. But of course it would never of occured to them to that...

I don't have a problem with disabling my CD burners but this is turning into a waste of my money.

mate i had this problem with cm 03/04 when i got my new pc, it only had the one drive which was a dvd/cd combo. just would not recognise that it was the original cd so i got a new drive which was just a cd drive but still a burner and it worked fine........ sorry i can not be more help

I saw CM 03/04 on sale at the shop where I got FM from for about $70.

Of course not.

But having cable TV and watching World Cup's, European Championships got me hooked ages ago.

I remember watching Zinedine Zidane out class Brazil in the 1998 World Cup Final in Paris.

I have found the source of my problem.

I will probably have to re-boot my whole computer and hey presto I have fixed my problem.
