Snapshot of your story - FM 12

Those agent offers do be great. I got Raul for QPR in 2012

In another note, FCUK Man United! They robbed me of Champions League last season and now hammered me 8-2 at Old Trafford. They beat me 7-1 in the same fixture last season. Nobody else comes close to those kind of scorelines. My form is really inconsistant this season, 3 games in the Europa League and three wins (two hammerings). But in the League I have one win and three losses putting me 18th with a trip to the Emirates next Out of the Carling Cup too but that was AET with a weakened team against Wolves who are flying this season.

20 Goals, 11 Games. Losing him on a free to Birmingham at the end of the season. I warned him with transfer list loads of times and he kept saying he really wanted to stay. So then I'd offer a contract and it wouldn't be good enough. Bastard.

What a group to get drawn in!

Lost to United away but beat Galatasary at home 3-0. Wolfsburg is up next.

Got this message though, have never seen it before!



He isn't even that great a player but I wanted another HG player and he is better than my best keeper.

Finished the season in 3rd. Had a chance on the last day of season to leapfrog Shamrock Rovers into 2nd, we were 1 point behind them. We led in our game, and they were losing for most of game, but then Bohs (who I was playing) came back and scored to draw game, and Rovers came away with a win anyway, so it didn't matter. 3 points behind 2nd place, like 10 behind first - not great.

Made a tonne of money though thanks to the Europa League, so we've now gone professional. Not sure how this will help us, but we're going to make a big push on league this year, and the free agents are still coming in, so don't need my transfer budget...

The difference is you can finally put players on proper full time training regimes and your pool of players opens up a bit.

Cheers. Had an agent offer a player to me, some German lad. He wanted like 4K a week, managed to get him down to 2.5K (which is the max I'm allowed), salaries have jumped quickly... Am thinking that if I don't get another European run I could be in trouble... We made profits last year in and around the 400K mark, which was mainly because we took in over €1million for the Europa League...

Fair point, haven't had that happen yet though, I haven't sold one player in my time with St. Pat's (lots of people have been released though).

BTW - time to update the sig I'd say Mc Love :pac:

The season has been going well.Top of the table but now this has happened:

Injuries.png

Going to have to get in some new players.All of the people who are injured are first team players and all are out for at least 2 months each.

David Lynch was class for me with Waterford United. Eventually he wasn't good enough but he's still playing in 2024 and I always get asked what's my relationship with him!

He's definately one of my better players.Has like 10 or 11 assists from centre mid in around 14 games.

Keep on having goals disallowed due to offside, very annoying - any ideas on how to stop this?

On a plus, we have 3 full internationals playing for St. Pats now, and have become very diverse, our main 16 players include 5 Irish, 1 Dutch, 3 Northern Irish, 1 Guinean, 2 Algerians, 1 English, 1 Welsh, 1 Turk and 1 Italian. :pac:

It's great signing foreign players but dont forget for Europe you need at least four players trained by your club and eight trained in your country. I had to leave four spaces in my Europa League squad due to having no first team players trained by the club. It's awful having to decide who to leave out.

Yup, although got caught last year too even though my team was mainly irish, as I didn't have players trained by club...

We'll manage...

My training facilities have gone from 5 silver starts to 3 gold stars!

The IPD just up 10 places and is now the 27th best league in the world and is on par with the Championship!

Nice work... What year you in now?

International management is a joke = clear indication that I have never done well with it.

I'm fit to kill!!

All of those injuries and I'm trying to find a striker on loan.

Then a bid comes in for my best left winger who can play as a striker and the boards accepts the bid!! GAAAHH!

Sweet mother of jesus, my finest moment in FM12 so far! City are the current PL champions! That's 3 points on the board now!

They were all the seated poshwits! There's 4,800 standing space like!

Waterford United won their 9th Premier Division title in a row by 19 points. Can I make it 10 in a row?

I've noticed the prize money increasing every year.

That's inflation for you... :pac:

Looks like St. Pat's are going to be knocked out of the Europa League in the 3rd Qualifying Round, we lost 3-1 to AZ Alkmaar in first leg, although we do have the return fixture at home. With all of the nonsense of cup matches and the few international players I have decimating my squad on a number of occasions we are already 9 points behind Shamrock Rovers - I think I'll be retiring from St. Pat's if we are knocked out, going to see if I can make my name across the water...

A league 1 team (can't remember who from where I am sitting) offered me a job at the start of their season, but I turned it down, kind of regretting missing out on that challenge...

:eek:

There was no indication of it happening!

Mine it's one CL place and 2 EL places.

Nice work...
