Turns out I'm in the game (FM14 at least) and I didn't know, and have no idea why :rof:Quote:

Sweet. I am pretty sure in maybe 08 or 09 I had a Clive Palmer regen.Quote:

He has no fixed CA nor PA in the game just 0, 0. I'm going to give him a -10 PA for FM15Quote:

I think it might be rated on club and player reputation and as Toronto Awaba FC aren't great and your rep was insignificant, you were complete garbage. In the last game, your best attributes were bravery (12) and Tackling (9). Most attributes were 2-3.Quote:

Jets have started 2023 season in a mess.
Joey Gibbs testimonial match was a 3-1 win against Marconi however the Brillante testimonial was a 2-1 loss against South Coast Wolves.
Then 2-1-4 start to the season and December 2023 rolls around... Clacka might be finally getting the sack. 10th in the league.
Thought he was gone last season. Had a run from 11th October to 17th December without a win... then a single win followed by 4 more losses. Then went on an amazing run... only ONE loss in the league, from 10th to 5th. Lost in the finals but saved his job.
They are playing a flat 4-4-2...
Velaphi
Regen - Regan - Hamill - Regen
Regen - Brillante - Macura - Regen
Gibbs - Korean Regen
:rof: you da man, joel!Quote:

27 year-old Daniel De Silva won golden boot and golden ball
Well I'm still playing FM12 and took Fiorentina from 17th at the start of November to go unbeaten for the remainder of the season and win Serie A, with ALOT of help from Jovetic and Bony, combined 48 goals.
Was on my way to another unbeaten season when Villa came for my services after Ralf Rangnick had them in 17th in February, so I steadied the ship and got the boys to 7th including a 6-0 home win against United (who are unbelievably, still managed by David Moyes)
It's 2018 at the end of February and I'm sitting top of the table with 72 points from 26 games and a 23-3-0 streak, my current top scorer is Oxlade-Chamberlain with 19 from the RW
My top striker is on 14 with left winger on the same. Right winger is on 13 and my 1st choice striker is only on 11, though he has missed a number of games. I have 16 different goal scorers this season :pissup:Quote:

As opposed to now where we lose to the Gypos 3 times a year and don't even make the semis let alone win the league???Quote:

Goran Lozanovski is in the mix as well with 2 regen managers.
When does the next edition come out usually??
Wish to update from my current model and see how long it takes me to take some BSS side like Bognor Regis to UCL glory

New manager is living up to media expectations. Forecast 10th. 11 games into season, yet to win. Conceded a massive 2 goals per game.Quote:

With the Jets in the 2016/17 season
Won the Grand Final three years in a row.
Won the premiership in 2014 and 2016
Won the 2016 Asian Champions League
Runner up in the 2016 Club World Cup. Lost 3-0 to Real Madrid
Squad was an absolute shambles. Binned off Gibbs and Velaphi as their contracts were up, told Beard (FFS joel, how did you make Chapman the greatest Socceroo of all time yet make Beard so rubbish?) and Gallaway that their contracts weren't being renewed then hunted for some players. The centre backs at the club are okay regen, potentially okay but not developed regen and Brendan Hamill who might have been good once but certainly isn't now.Quote:

Did a quick search of the state leagues and picked up 6 players for the game capped 3.2k each. One of them, a 17yo striker, has gone straight into the starting lineup and has 6 goals in 4 starts. That's more than the rest of the team had scored before I took over.
Updated to the 2013 Model from 2008 the other day.
Took over Basingstoke in the BSS with the goal of avoiding relegation.
Have spent the season fluctuating between 8th-16th spot. Currently in 14th Spot with 12 games to go.
Considering have no money and have kept the bulk of squad quite content. For some reason despite staying well inside the wage budget am running at a 120k debt each year
Have basically put all players up for sale and have only replaced what I removed.
Next season looks better with the opportunity to shape the squad more to my liking as everyone is off contract and I am renewing only about 5 of them.
Tactics have been inspired by the need to keep it tight to avoid relegation with my inept squad 5-3-2 playing on the counter with hoof ball the go and training being devoted to defence.
No Tika Taka
As a result have a pretty solid defence conceding at similar rates to the best sides in the division. Problem though has been the goals scored being low also. So far have had Eight 0-0 draws in the BSS.
Can't wait to get the season done to kick on next year and the start the journey up the league
Why not FM14 given you can get it for <$15 these days?Quote:

Now, if Perth can do the business in week 27, that means the scum miss the finals after 24 previous weeks in the top 6.
*edit* Perth didn't even need to win... Nix thumped whoever they played and made 6th spot unattainable :D
Rather try playing back in the days before GVE actually fully damaged the Jets squad for ever.Quote:

Decided to go with the 17 year old to save a few bob as that is starting to become an issue
**** that went well.Well it weren't his fault no great issues from him but the rest of the ****s slacked off and the Club went on a 8 game losing spree and required a win on the final day of the season. Well we didn't need to win but we were still in prime position to stay up with a win guaranteeing it.
Boys delivered with a 4-3 win with the winner scored in the 89th minute:pissup:
Spent the off season gutting the **** out of the squad. Am just about to finish pre season and get into it.
Must say I loved the feature where they offer you a wage. I actually knocked my wage down to the bare min allowed and got another 2 staff out of the deal.
As if that would happen in real life
Comfortable 2-1 victory away to Brisbane in the elimination final.Quote:

Jets = champions. Grimario = hero.
In FM15 regens can participate in movember
