Another thing... what's the deal with all of the
expiring contracts? Just got word that 28 players will have contracts
expiring within 12 months. Seems like every time I start a save this is the case.

As much as i love him, wish he'd retire now :/ got one more season of him.

His international record is dreadful compared to my save.

Thats because he retired earlier than yours very early....


all worth it though, all time top scorer for me at United with over 450 goals shame Rooney was so inconsistent and injury prone for me

Retired? Huh?

I take about an hour or so to get to know my team/staff when I first start a save.

That's normal. Most players have contracts expiring in the same year. For your good players, try to renew their contracts at least one year before it expires. If you wait to long, other clubs might lure them away with better contracts.

Hernandez retired from internationals on 91 goals on my save too.

Internationally. Yeah i did ask a few times to retire so maybe that made him do it early

Oh right, I read that wrong. He would have been prolific for me but he was still 3rd choice striker, still managed to bang in over 150 goals for me though.

I never knew playing 3, not 4 at the back can be so good.

Just got a new sponsorship deal worth £26m.

Beat Tel-Aviv.

Feelsgoodman.

Strong profit.

69er always a good un....

First transfer window with Barnsley, trying to sign Andile Jali, saw in one of my games he went to Chelsea in season 3 for £23 Million

A lot of other clubs are looking at him though, but i've offered him a contract, £1M offer was accepted.

American regens

my league record so far in 2014/15. i still have a 100% win record and i'm more than 1/2 way until the end of the season



and lol at juve stabia for not being able to get a single win all season

I hate how every straight red one of my players gets results in a further two match ban.

Schinx, Roma are fighting relegation in 2022/2023

Holy cheese on a cracker, how did you manage that?

Im gonna guess by selling players? or maybe very large sponsorship?

What are teams coloured in purple?

Fiorentina.

i wonder if i can ever get that far before FM13 comes out........ or if i ever decide to quit my roma save and start a bundesliga one

man i feel like barca sometimes. every time i'm down 0-1, someone on the other team gets red carded. and every time i'm 1-1 or 0-0 at the 80th minute mark, i get awarded a bogus PK

No not club colours I mean like this

Look at Siena and Pescara, why the purple colour?

Affiliated clubs I reckon
