Football Manager 2010

This is coming out October 23rd, might well buy it. Anyone else getting it? Itā€™s been a few years since iā€™ve bought one of these games, interested to see how much they have progressed and if iā€™ve still got itā€¦

Iā€™ll probably pick it up as Iā€™ll have a long boring winter ahead of me. I have to buy a new laptop first though as the one I have would hardly play a cd at this stage let alone run a game.

What happened your laptop? Iā€™m nearly sure it is newer than mine, sounds like youā€™ve been watching too much of what you shouldnā€™t have and have picked up one too many virus along the wayā€¦

I have it a few years now, it was a cheap HP when I bought it. I dont think iā€™ve picked anything up, not even a wrist injury. I wont be buying one specifically for Football Manager though.

Id really like to put the effort into a decent lower league game rather than play as United as I usually do. I saw the demo was out but I can wait for the full release to see what its like to play.

Yes, i like managing shit teams myself. Iā€™m thinking Burnley in the Championship for some reason first to find my feet in the new game. Expectations canā€™t be too high there and i think there is enough material there for me to be able to work withā€¦

Im sure they would only expect a top half finish or something. I had a cracker of a game a few years ago guiding Bradford from League 2 to the Premiership in around 5 years. Great times. I have never came close again with them. :frowning:

Would you not prefer a stint with your beloved owls mate?

I will be acquiring this also, and as usual i will be taking charge of Torquay.

Taking charge of the Owls would be too easy mate as they are sleeping giants playing in League One. I would have them playing in the EPL in two years and in the Champions League within five yearsā€¦

I see you can now download championship manager 01/02 with an updated database with all the current players.
