If Plymouth are in that division please can I bagsy them?!

Plymouth are in this division and are also currently unmanaged, you might have to hurry though as there is no way to properly reserve teams

14 teams gone, 6 to go.

10 out of 14 of those spots have been filled by Ramblers. Good Work!

I’m suprised Villa are one of the 5 teams left without a manager.

OK, I took Middlesbrough smile We’ve got Reading at home on the 29th of February.

GAH!
Get away from my transfer targets!

I think you’ve got more in the bank than me, but I might steal this one from you.  He’s important!

For people who’ve never played SM, despite it showing that the games begin at 8 o’clock, you don’t get the results until 8 30 so only start refreshing the page at half past. Otherwise you’ll be doing it for some time!

FAO Cardiff Manager: I can’t make a bid for one of your players as it would make your squad too small.

BRING SOMEONE IN!

Edit: Can we bring players in from external clubs?

Yes.

EETS, go right to the bottom of the game worlds page and click on it and it shoul come up with the option to choose loads of different leagues. Choose English and a bit where you enter ‘2523’ in should drop down.

Go to the bottom option when searching for a new side, search in English Championships, and search for 2523 (I think that will work)

EDIT: I’ve just basically repeated what Dylstar said

I’m not seeing a search option though. I’ve just got a screen of current clubs that i can take control of.

Does it say job offers? There should be a bit next to that that says Club Search

There’s a button that says get new club offers, by the side of it there’s a Game World ID search.
My account thing says i have 40 rep points. If i go on my club apparently i can alter tactics and make friendlies for Real Madrid.

I think i might give up.

Yeah do what Dylstar said, after you click on “add club” there should be 2 tabs at the top of the screen- “club offers” and “club search”, you want to be in “club search”

EDIT: everyone starts with 40 rep points. I think the reason it’s letting you make tactics for Real Madrid is because your login may have timed out and it’s taken you to the demo

I don’t think I have enough players to sell him anyway., I have a very small, very average squad.

Doncaster 0-1 Reading


I beat Doncaster 1-0 with a Stephen Hunt goal although (due to me telling them to tackle hard), he and Jay Tabb were both sent off! Hargreaves got an assist and Owen the MOTM!

A really good sign that we can beat a fellow Division 2 side before my new signings have even arrived so it’s given me something to think about whether to keep it similar to what the winning side was tonight (excluding suspensions), or change it up.

How d’you all get on?

Cardiff City 2 - 1 Darlington

Not too bad, should of been more convincing though seeing as the whole team rated 8+ with Kenny Miller, Jay Bothroyd and Igor Akinfeev rating 10 and Darlington being a division 4 side. Dominated possession and shots but I will judge the tactics properly when we play a similar level opponent.

I won despite a Red card in the 75th minute.
Still, with my team I would have liked to do better than 2-1.

I won 2-1, but it was against Bournemouth, so probably not a great result. Shouldn’t matter anyway because I’m planning a squad overhaul

Burnley 2-0 Southampton

A good win to kick things off despite it being against managerless Southampton.

Also how long does it take roughly for your transfer bids to be decided on by the managerless teams?
