Their history, performances, blah blah blah aren't saved in the database. And, quite possibly, their stats don't change either.

Whatever it is, they take up far less memory and processing time than whites.

Not only will cups suck

But their will be a complete lack of players to bring into confernce north/south sides

Also if you want to wait a season and take over a mangerless club it will suck as they will have no players to start with

If like me people want to manage a specific club in my case Billericay Town again this has been ruined but then again managing Billericay has been ruined by the idiotic fool that is the head of isthmian researcher full time are no we are not but what can you expect from a Chelmsford supporter

So angry with myself with *****ing 25 quid on the game as I knew it would be crap with Billericay being professionally on the demo not happy not happy at all

It would appear that in his fit of anger, ricaytownfan has hit his keyboard and broken the full-stop and comma keys!

Seriously though, I think I'll be waiting for the first patch before buying 08, as it seems to have been released completely bug-ridden, from what I've read on this forum anyway.

How do you know - have you got to the end of season 1 yet?

Why are they grey?
Couldn't they just make them 'white' from the start of a save and be treated like a regen player?

What's the use of making a grey player grey?
After all: you can put a grey you own on a contract.
This has been very confusing to me.
Baffling even.
I'm pretty sure I'm missing the obvious...

Off course all this doesn't make the post of Nobby less valid; white or grey doesn't matter: cup shocks should happen, just not too often.

yes... we should consider the philosophical implications of a grey player...

That doesn't mean you have to type dross to explain it

retired_goldberg · 10-21-2007, 03:59 PM

Found away round this when you are on the screen where you select playable leagues

Choose to lao all players from England

Its on the part of the screen where database size is selected

How very pedantic of you to go on and on about quality of language English due to having high functioning autism.

I am sure the pedantic language bores such as yourself who seem more concerned with berating posters for their poor English than discussing LLM turn people off from contributing to this forum

arman920 · 10-21-2007, 04:04 PM

I do hope so, it's as easy to type properly as it is to type badly and there are many who don't have English as their first language who struggle with some of the gibberish written here.

Garbage Kev, it has 3 match engine things that need getting right.
It's decent enough even before that's done.

Football Manager 2008 has a database compromising of tens of thousands of players.
