New Challenge … Again

Posted on May 16th, 2012 in Football Manager 2011 by craig123


This is my New Challenge that I will hopefully stick with. Following today’s squad Announcement I decided that it would be fun to do a career with England and Blog about it. My aims for this Career are:

  • Give Younger Players experience at EURO 2012
  • Win a World Cup
  • Make England number 1 team in the World

These are 3 simple aims. I will use young, upcoming players at EURO 2012, to give them the experience so when it’s the World Cup 2014 I will have a better chance of winning it.

This is my post on the pre-season of Luton, I will start with the Transfers and then the Matches.

I will not talk to much about the Transfers, as there wasn’t any big-name signings and most Transfers were for back-up

I know I said I was going to take a break from FM Crowd, I couldn’t, I got bored of playing FM without posting about it. I have decided to return and I have the perfect Challenge for me, the Director of Football Challenge – http://sortitoutsi.net/forum/topic/53508-director-of-football-challenge/

Director of Football Challenge

In this challenge you control everything of the club apart from Tactics + Matches. The point of the challenge is it’s quick, perfect for People like me who need to play the game quickly, the rules of the Challenge are:

-Can only play during the transfer windows! You must holiday between the non-transfer periods, so as to try and avoid the temptation of fiddling with tactics!
-You can touch anything EXCEPT for tactics. You must leave this up to your Assistant Manager, so your career is riding on him. If he fails, YOU get the sack!
-Assistant Managers must be set to take your conferences and team talks.
-When you holiday, you can’t tell your assistant manager to stick with your pre-set tactics (see rule #2) or play the same line-up. Everything must be up to his discretion. Of course, you buy his players, don’t you?

 

The club I will start with is Luton Town

As I am the director of football, the assistant manager takes charge of every match, the first thing I done was terminate the contract of the Previous ASSMAN, the new Assistant Manager is …

Joe Roach … I know he doesn’t look that good, there was a number of reason for his appointment, mainly because his attributes for Motivating, Man Management and Discipline are very high, also cause he plays Mind Games, also he is a Model Professional:

I think that pretty much covers it, if you have any questions, feel free to ask in here and I’ll try and clarify them for you.
