No your not deaf, you heard right. The game of champions is back on the shelf and ready to hit the CM online scene with another bang. Once again the toughest online game is back to battle it out among the top clans of the forum.
To remind you folks from all the corners of the globe, EFB originated from the famous UCMIG clan, once the group went its separate way it went on to even greater things and was never expected to be so competitive and contain such a dedicated and so highly skilled managers from all different countries in the world. Many people involved have all got their own memories, even Dogs won't forget his spell with this highly rated clan, he set out his plans for the clubs only for them to shatter and for him to experience his first sacking ever!!.... Hard is just an under statement for the difficulty to succeed in this clan.
So the CM Online forum now welcomes back one of its best clans since the new format of the forum, EFB is here and with a new version of the game, also a new line up of managers, ready to battle it out and make EFB once again the force it was and be known once again as the toughest game to break into.
The new reformed EFB also now has a website: EFB Website
At the website everything can be found that you need to know, rules, playing times, about the managers involved, and much, much more.
With the nitty gritty stuff out of the way its time for all managers to get off the training ground and away from the tactics screen, to give their match talk in the dressing room and go and get their arse sat down in the dugout.
So let the game commence across the great battlefields of Europe once again and let EFB run wild.
Good luck everyone, here your EFB journey begins............

That's right folks, the biggest badest clan in CMO got underway again last night. Teams were picked and a long T&T session commenced for all the managers involved. Teams are as follows:
Andy H - Hull City
Stephen Gold - Stevenage Boro
Gareth Jenkinson - Accrington
Paul Rouch - West Ham
Mark Brown - QPR
Steven Riddell - WBA
Edan Waldman - (Yet to pick a team due to patch difficulties)
It was then time for T&T and as always it was slow but we still managed to get quite far and will prolly start the season tonight.
As Hull City boss I went about my business by immediately snapping up Johan Porhallsson on a free transfer despite a bid from Rouchie's West Ham . The second player I brought in was 20 year old Paulinho from Arsenal and what a player he could turn out to be for Hull City. The third player brought into the squad was Scott Jones a defender whom I got on a free transfer but looks solid in defence.
As usual there was lots of banter with myself and Rouchie lighting up mirc with a fantastic battle between a trout and a frying pan . So it's onto tonight for the next installment of EFB 03/04.

Well having installed CM03/04 with the patch seconds before EFB actually started officially I havnt even had any time to get a look of it......i must say it looks fantastic.
Anyway, in this edition my club will be Stevenage, the board want to the squad to be improved as at the moment its looking for like a scrap heap to give them a compliment.
Not a lot of players around at all for the lower league manager I must say, any decent ones are easily snapped up by bigger clubs due to being able to offer better wages, being able to offer 775 quid a week for wages does hinder our chances of getting some real talent.
However, against all odds, Olafur Julliusson signed for 10k, The zizou of the lower leagues imo, with him we got a striker from Bristol for a staggering 45k, Matthews looks like a great talent for the conference though and should bang a few in.
There were not many more signings after that, the main ones were Vance Warner to improve the defence, Chris Humphreys, former Man Utd youth striker and also Eugene Dadi from Tranmere, bags of experience from this striker in the football league, all players were signed on a free transfer.
With the boards aim to improve the squad i'll be aiming to guide the club into a safe mid table position and will hopefully build up a strong team in years to come which will one day possibly be title contenders

Well we're about 5 games into the season now it wasnt the best opening game result for the club.
We travelled away to Halifax, despite dominating the game completely, it was down to the strikers who just couldnt put away the easy chances missing 3 sitters.
Result : Halifax 1 - 0 Stevenage
The second game saw us finally be infront of the home crowd, time to show off the new signings....well they certainly did that, Chester the joint favourites for the league stood no chance and were crushed with goals from Huckerby, Matthews and Carroll.
Result : Stevenage 3 - 0 Chester
Another away trip now and this time we visit Northwich Victoria, a complete walk over as we dominate the play and have it all our own way. some slick passing and counter attacking play with Northwich's very crappy defensive gifted us goals by Juliusson, Matthews, Cook, Baptise and Huckerby.
Result : Northwich 0 - 5 Stevenage
Back home again for this thrilling encounter against Leigh RMI, their keeper certainly must have had words with super man as he saved literally everything we could throw at him, unbelievable considering our domination in this game, still we got the 3 points after getting a brace from Elding.
Result : Stevenage 2 - 1 Leigh RMI
We visited Gravesend being on fantastic form since the first day of the season, 3 convincing victories in a row with dominating performances....a trend we love to continue, so we did as new boy Matthews bagged a brace followed by Huckerby, Cook and Warner also scoring. A scoring spree of 3 goals in 3 minutes sealed the game easily.
Result : Gravesend 1 - 5 Stevenage
So that takes us upto 3rd place in the table and not far behind the top 2 at all, if we can keep the current form well into the mid season and beyond, we sure could be looking at a good finish to the season.
Very happy with the performance of the team, strikers could do with scoring more to show the domination we are getting in games but as long as we get the 3pts home then i'm not too bothered
