FM 2013 The last Hurrah
15:16:59 Sep 20th 13 - Dark Prince Stirlin:

So with everyone (just me) getting bored of fantasy football we (me again) decided to go back to FM13 to give it the send off it deserves.



We (I) will be doing a well known challenge, the big euro challenge linked below.

I took it upon myself to decide for the group that we will be doing Germany, a country not tried in our group since the triumphant Wehen days of old, Stirlins super stars, reedle mcpeedles always late wannabes and fords arsenal, the original fmers.

The strict rules are as follows;

The Rules

A) Playing


1) Choose your FM - Classic or Full Fat
2) Load German Nation Only (All Available Divisions within your nation)
3) Your choice of Database Size (Large Recommended)
4) NO Edited Databases of any kind
5) Customising Database (Only Available in Full Fat)
  • Players from Top Clubs (Europe or All Continents - This increases the challenge at Continental Level)
  • Players Based in (Your Nation only - This can add up to 50% more players to your game)
  • There will be a file correcting the club/competition names, I will advise use of this.
  • NO other additional customising is allowed.
6) Attribute Masking should be Enabled
7) Optional Ticks
  • Add Key Staff (This will give you a Scout, Physio & Ass Man by generating them if your club is without)
  • Add Players in Playable Nations (This will ensure all clubs have a minimum number of players, generating them if needed)
The extra levels of detail that you can change while in the game are up to you, as they shouldn't make a difference. 

B) Steps in the Game

1) Add an unemployed manager, you will not use this man to manage your club.
2) Go on holiday until the reset date of your chosen nation (Should take about an hour)
TIP - Changing Detail Level to None will make it go faster.
TIP - Saving on the day before this date may give you a better choice of teams by reloading the game then going on holiday for one day, I would strongly recommend trying this.
TIP - In Scotland go on holiday til the day after the last game, and takeover the team in last.
3) Add a new manager
a) Past Experience lowest Possible (Generally Sunday League)
b) Other options are up to you
4) Choose to take over any club which has been promoted to the bottom playable league of your nation.
TIP - Easiest way in FM12 to see this is using Club History - Domestic Leagues, if the last season is anything except 2012/13 they are a newly promoted team.
5) Retire your unemployed manager.
6) Manage your club to National Title & European Champions League Victory


C) Signing of Players

1) You must be able to scout them
TIP: You don't actually have to scout them, just be able to
TIP: You can check your scouting range on the Boardroom page
2) Alternatively (If you can't scout them), you must bring them on a trial first
3) And from FM11 onwards Agents offer players, you are able to sign anyone sent to you via Agent Offer
(I suggest Screenshots of the offer)



Please feel free to join.

It seems like you guys quit every game you start. I mean, all the work for Minecraft, and then Fantasy, now back to this. They only thing you havent quit is the one you suck at the most, VU! 


But to stay on topic.. i may give this a try. at least if u dont quit part way through.

swifty ruined minecraft


15:33:07 Sep 20th 13 - Zond (General Zondervan):

19:10:29 Sep 20th 13 - Mr. Bad Bell Mate:

11:59:57 Sep 21st 13 - Stirlin (Dark Prince Stirlin):

SV Waldhof Mannheim


So i begin my adventure at Mannheim the sleeping giants. ive inherited a piss poor squad thats gonna need a massive overhaul but fortunately the club is standing on solid foundations, average facilities for the league and a lovely 27k stadium to admire, the club has potential.

Board Expectations: Fight Relegation
My Expectations: Top Half
Wage Budget: £37.39k
Wage Total: £29.47k
Transfer Budget: £0






14:50:45 Sep 21st 13 - Mr. Bad Bell Mate:

nice update friend


12:51:46 Sep 22nd 13 - Stirlin (Dark Prince Stirlin):

SV Waldhof Mannheim

With an average to poor squad i needed major overhauls, to look under every nook and cranny to find them gems, and gems i found... they just didn't want to join and unlike moorleys sexual advances on blondie i had to give up.

I did manage to strengthen in some areas.

With the pick of the bunch being.

So with my 3 new champions and an opening fixture at home to an average 3. Liga side i was confident. seems i was over confident... like Reedle Mcpeedle and the many ASDA womenz


Its going to be a long season


20:27:28 Sep 26th 13 - Dark Prince Stirlin:

SV Waldhof Mannheim

A very up and down season with form blowing hot and cold like blondies interest in swifty, we saw the starting months of the season in the relegation spots and the promotion chases positions towards the end.
In the end  a very respectable 9th was achieved, i hit my target!

League Table with the 6th best GD in the league we really should be higher up, a tighter defence is needed.
Finances are looking terrible we lose money every month, the rent prices must be as high as oxfords.

A few stand out performances.
Kevin Stoger Playing mainly on the left wing, Kevins skillfull dribbling was a delight for low league football.
Markus Pazurek My solid centrel defender who chipped in with a few goals.
Smail Morabit The clubs top scorer woth 18 league goals.
Niklas Stark My fav player, the midfield creative genius.


Next season objective.
Im hoping to win promotion next season via the playoffs and with half my team leaving at the end of the season frees up alot of wage to work my magic
