    Its an impossible game.
    I was kilkenny in it and could not even beat mayo!
    Way too difficult and its only for one season too.

    Agreed. WAAAYYY too much emphasis on training on the game. Each individual training session requires at least an hours work for the training session to have a positive impact. Every individual player requires their own personalised training session.

    I got bored with this game. A full season played properly would require about 50 hours of gameplay. I can do about 10 seasons of Championship Manager in that time!!!

    As the lads have said, it was impossible, struggled against New York with Kilkenny in friendlies. A friend of mine spent ages at it, won the league with Clare, lost first round of Munster then got sacked.

    Some of the stories were good though, John Mullane going to play Aussie Rules in Australia or PJ Ryan been offered a soccer contract with Kilmarnock!

    Took over as Loais manager had a good league campaign went through the group stages unbeaten. Got a good few injures in the run up to the semi and was beaten by Down.

    The Run up to the championship was a disaster players injured, losing confindence. Got betean 3-24- 1-08 by Carlow in a challenge game and a week before my championship game vs Offaly i was sacked.

    They should be an Express Training system where the coach takes control like in Football Manager.

    Dont think we will ever see a GAA computer game of any kind in the future unless EA sports take control of making it.

    Love that result from the challenge game, lets hope for a repeat in Portlaoise on Sat evening!! :)

    But no this game is headwrecking. Training just takes forever, every time you have to do individual stuff for each player....it was just crazy!!!

    Games were grand, and the whole idea was spot on, but they got it so wrong with training etc!!
