Currently sitting in 24th position I think.

I think a serious clear out is in order if I can get anyone to come and play for me as I think its the only way I'll get close to a win.
Wasn't Chelsmford it was Chesterfield

Anyway after dropping to 24th I've managed to claw my way back up to 13th and despite there still being 3 months left to go in the season and the boards goals were to make it to the end round about the middle of the table I'm still getting hassle and looking like I'll be pushed out the door.

I'll show them...grrrr
*shakes fist*

You'll get a job within the first season as a sunday league player. Just stick yourself on holiday, applying for jobs... have your dinner, and time your back, you'll have been knocked back for EVERY JOB EVER... but you'll get a shitey one.

Re: AN Challenge (FM2008)
Alright. Wanted a wee change so went with this:



All these jobs sitting waiting for me to rescue their wee Asian foolishness



The same day I applied I got this bad boy: (I set myself as a Sunday League player)



That's right bitches. I am the manager of Halleluijlah.

Yes! The Gimpo Stadium

My team report has every player with full stars by their name. So I guess promotion's the aim?

Re: AN Challenge (FM2008)
I dunno if perhaps this is a bug but it appears the players don't go on holiday in the Korean League despite two big breaks in the season. I've been playing friendlies in the breaks hoping my players will remain fit/continue to improve and it'll gimme an advantage. 'mon 'e Hallelujah!

Re: AN Challenge (FM2008)
Anyone else noticed defensive, counter attacking play is far more successful in this one?

Re: AN Challenge (FM2008)
After 22 games in the Korean N-League I finished top but didn't get promoted as what happens is whoever had the best record for the first eleven games plays whoever had the best record for the last eleven games in a play off.

I came second in both "mini-leagues" by one point.

Stupid Koreans. I'm looking at Singapore now.

Re: AN Challenge (FM2008)
I can't bring myself to play the game knowing that in near enough every game I'm gonna get utterly humped. I also suspect the fact that almost the entire squad hates me for berating them to get results and keeping pressure on them for the whole season could result in me getting sacked after five or so games...

Re: AN Challenge (FM2008)
Go a really defensive 4-4-2 with counter attacking and you might snatch enough draws/wins to keep you up. Sign a couple of nippy wingers and you'll be fine

Re: AN Challenge (FM2008)
You suck!

These Asian leagues are crazy. Next to no proper leagues. They all end in play offs and whatnot.

Just signed a new contract with Hallelujiah but if I don't get promoted this year I feel myself heading to another country or hoping to jump right up to the K-League

My tactics are 4-4-2 defensive counter attacking until you take the runs into account whereby at any one time 5 folks can be upfront...

I have next to no money to sign players unfortunatly... When I feel I can cope with the stench of eventual defeat I shall return to the game...
(It really is just a matter of seeing how much reputation I can build in the season and so get a semi-decent jo afterwards)
