good signings, think £10.25m for Giles Barnes is a lot (but he is the reason Derby got promoted so proberly(sp?) will be a good signing)

unfortunatly i am not doing this challenge as i have a sign up going, but i like to watch the progress of the people taking part </BLOCKQUOTE>

yeah, hopefully get a few more people on here but i can understand that a lot of people are doing other challenges, sign-ups, annoyed with the game and how close it is to the new game so some might think its pointless

yeh 10.25mil is pricey but its over 24months..so will work out well..he was regarded as a definate purchase by all my scouts and assman..

retired_Myoplex

gotta be quite young aswell ain't he?

retired_Tkdlady

yeh he's 17 at the start of the game

but

i had to start again yet another corrupted file...****ing annoying me now..thinking this isn;t meant to be...

will post this 3rd attempts signings when i finish august...'mon this save being good..

retired_Myoplex

have you still got the files? if so try finding them through the sigames folder and putting .FM on the end, i.e Newcastle.FM worked for me once

retired_Tkdlady

nah i deleted them as soon as they get shanked..

doing well at the moment..getting the same players for cheaper..not selling anyone this time, want my reserves to be better...signed alot of coaches and scouts this time too..

a better start this time..\o/

not posted on here for a while, but ive done 3 more months..........

october-

newcastle 2 v 0 reading (modric, johnson)
middlesborough 1 v 2 newcastle (johnson, martins)
carling cup - newcastle 1 v 0 bolton (modric)
newcastle 0 v 0 blackburn

a decent month.

november-

birmingham 1 v 1 newcastle (owen)
Carling cup - blackburn 3 v 1 newcastle (van der vaart)
newcastle 2 v 0 sunderland (ratinho, johnson)
chelsea 3 v 2 newcastle (owen(2))
newcastle 3 v 0 bolton (rodriguez, owen, johnson)

decent month again.

december-

newcastle 4 v 0 man city (pique, geremi, modric, owen)
tottenham 0 v 2 newcastle (owen, johnson)
everton 1 v 2 newcastle (owen, johnson)
newcastle 5 v 0 derby (pique, owen, johnson, modric (2))
west ham 3 v 2 newcastle (ratinho, owen)
aston villa 3 v 3 newcastle (owen, johnson (2))

after the wins of early december i sit 3rd in the league but with my last 2 results i am in danger of losing it again. the strikers are really coming together, geremi is doing well on the wing (!) and rodriguez and pique are fantastic at the back.
