If the league is based in England, you have the majority of your players from England, yes?

Not necessarily. It depends on which nation/players you download. I think the youth and regens will be from the original countries of origin. Although with England switched to Europe its possible that regens that would have been from England are now European.

Just wish that FM was as easy as OOTP to edit, it's not rocket science their made by the same company.

On topic Wigan are in desperate need of a striker or even 2, if they don't get a decent foward in the next week or two then can't see them staying up.

Now onto the Ironic Report.

This report is an update of when Alan Pardew took over at Charlton.

Charlton Ath. 2 games. 1 w. 1 d. 0 l. 4 scored 3 conceded. 4pts.
Wet Spam. 3 games. 0 w. 0 d. 3 l. 1 scored 9 conceded. 0 pts.

The integrated nature of World Football makes it hard to make editable leagues. But apart from league structures, is there anything else thats hard to edit? I havent had any troubles.

I want to edit 128 teams just seems easier in OOTP to do this than in FM.

Once you get the hang of editing it goes by fast. Over in the SI forums someone is putting together a 92/93 season file.

I think FM is just a much deeper game than OOTP. Hope you dont give up on your project.

He'll need his motorcycle to get the job done. Thats such a great movie.

no talk of Man U tying Newcastle? you guys are losing your edge...

Chelsea now down 7 with a game in hand...a win tomorrow at Aston Villa gets them 2 of their 6 point deficit back prior to today.

I also noticed there werent games for this coming weekend...FA Cup instead?

The Professor · 01-01-2007, 08:43 PM

I'm pretty sure even Kerry Dixon had a goal in that Reading thrashing of West Ham. Yikes & Yikes!!

The sitution is looking dire for the Hammers, but that result is an absolute killer.

It was a heck of a match, or at least I thought so. Of course, I'm a Newcastle supporter so Edgar's strike sent me sky high...with most of the squad banged up and out, it was nice to see the effort they put forth.

I know the young back line makes some awful errors, but they play hard and I sure don't miss seeing Carr or Babayaro out there. Newcastle, I think, would be a lot better off if they could land a midfielder or striker who could control the ball. I like Martins' pace, but he and the midfield give away far too many balls.

NEW RULE

Since this is still sort of my thread, I feel that I have a right to impose rules on all who use this thread.
If you are going to report the outcome of the game, even if you do not give out the score.
First put which match your post is about.
Next
Please put the word 'spoiler' in giant letters and then begin your post several lines down from it.

I Tivo alot of games and watch them late at night or even a few days later.
I would like to be able to read this thread without knowing the results of almost every EPL game.

I do not mind you guys talking about games, that is what this thread is for.
And you guys help me choose which games to watch, but please for the love of god dont give out the results

I will impose the spoiler rule for 72 hour after a match, then you do not have to do it.

Thank you for complying with this rule and helping out those with limited timne to watch games or are 5 hours behind

Now I am going to go watch the Man U/Newcastle match
Too bad I already know the outcome

How about posting the spoiler in white? The above posts also spoiled it for me. I might as well not watch the Man U-Newcastle match at all (of course I'm downloading the match from BT, but that's another story.

Either way works

So long as the person reading knows a result is being given out and has to do something out of the oridinary (highlight text or scroll down) in order to see it.

Good idea. I've thought that I might have spoiled a game for someone before now.

I won't be affected though by it because I only post results of obscure leagues nobody cares about.

I'm not sure how I've helped you choose games, but everyone else has done a good job in the thread.

Sdpm100 · 01-02-2007, 10:14 AM

Okay, can someone help me to name a baseball team?

Kyiv (or Kiev) somethings.
I've called them Wolves for now. Does it sound okay, or do you have something better?
