Are you better than Sir Alex? - A Man United Tactics Challenge

retired_charytine · 02-24-2007, 09:06 PM

This is a challenge for all you Man United fans out there like myself.

The aim is to be as successful as possible with Man United in Season 1 using the 7.0.2 patch.

The Rules are to load ALL English leagues and you are not allowed to buy/loan anyone but you can sell/loan players out if you wish.

The winner/s will be the person/s who have the most success using the players at the club already. This may come down to points, goal difference in the league or how far you get in a certain cup.

I will run this for a month and see how the progress is but may extend it or choose a new team to try the same principle with.

Good Luck!

I had to change the A in aim as it was annoying me

Not done any other challenges this year, so may as well start with this one

Be warned my progress will undoubtedly be slow through this even though it is just one season, but I will try and complete it.

Sounds good.
I'll start it maybe this afternoon.
BTW, do we have to load ALL the English leagues? Or can you just load, say, up to league 2 (To send players out on loan. They won't go down further than that)
