The one thing that gets my goat more than any other, is that the game is claseed as "playable".

In game 1, I encountered the attendance bug and the better I did, the fewer people turned up at my matches, forcing me into debt and then administration.

In game 2, I didn't encounter this and flew to promotion in my first season. Unfortunately, the board didn't seem to recognise this and I was not offered a new contract when my original one expired.

The game is playable ??????

Its got to be the huge transfer fees of players, ok SI are to mimic real life but in game currently they do NOT mimic real life. Yesterday i saw a bid for a newcastle reserve player for 15m from reading. Is this real life SI? i think not and hope its addressed for the patch.

I have to agree with Jim that there are a few issues that make the game not playable. If playable means the game works, and you can do most things, then thats correct. If its in relation to working the way it should be then no it does not.

What's getting my goat is the fact that I haven't got the heart to start a challenging, lower league game because I don't want it to be ruined by the attendance or board confidence bugs mentioned by Jimbo.

Because of this I'm already bored of my Premier League game and currently find myself spending nights watching 'telly' with the missus (and anyone who's missus watches the same kind of crap that mine does will know how bad this is. I don't know what that is that they watch, but it ain't telly).

""yes, si is so lazy!!!!!!!
how would you explain that toni's wage is 10,000 at bayern and jankulovski earns 3700 at milan for years(exactly the same amount as he earned in Udiness, this is not his 1st year at Milan, isn't it?!!!). you people spent a whole year working hard on the game,as you said, and let's see what you have brought us. i feel like i just spent my money buying a new patch of cm0102,even worse than that...
so i hope u do not explain by ur words again but by your action...""

Another bug no?,,,you lazy lazy SI...grrr

My goat is that Leeds Utd start on -15, I win 6games in a row and player moral is still very low and the board are disappointed!

I know this has been logged in the bugs forum, but still, very armature mistake SI.

How Motherwell's Clarkson has rotten stats but consistently puts 3 by me.

Scenario 1: Took my save game onto my old comp which runs really slow. I got beat 2-1 by Motherwell (Clarkson go two) then drew with Rangers. My game then wouldn't let me pick my side against Celtic (due to the lag) and I kciked the PC. It broke it and I lost that great result against Rangers.

Scenario 2: I lost 3-1 to Motherwell (back on new PC) with Clarkson getting all 3 of Motherwell's goals and as I started the Rangers game I got the BSOD. I wasn't too sad about losing that game.

Scenario 3: Just lost 6-4 to Motherwell with Clarkson netting another 3. I'm praying for a BSOD but that was the 1st in months so I won't hold my breath lol.


No matter what I do he bags loads of goals into me.

I don't like the post-match analysis. The guy always picks the best stats wise player regardless of how well he plays. Rooney plays at a 6, Gerrard at a 9. But Rooney gets his vote.
Actually the player is picked in the pre-match build-up

I hate the way you know sometimes that you aren't going to score after about 5 minutes of the game. I also hate it when you know that your star striker isn't going to score because he's alreaddy had seven attempts on goal.

- Will the final patch give me the FM experience I crave?
- If the smart cache sounds play when no one is around, does it still make sound?
- Does a bear relieve itself in the woods? and if so, does it know how to effectively use a 442 counterattacking style?
- Is the pope catholic? If so, how does he feel about punishing GK's who find themselves in midfield at the start of the second half?
- If train A leaves station B at 60km pr hour, how long will it take before it gets fired for overachieving?
Awesome.
