Default How do you get along with players that died in earlier databases

I always deleted them, but by doing so I concentrate on them even more I noticed. I find it a weird feeling to have players who don't live anymore in the database, yet the database is so comprehensive that in every earlier football manager version some are probably dead around the world.

This way, I guess it is better to accept it and realise it is a game and just play it. I have thought about starting with fake names in earlier versions, but that doesn't really work. It isn't as fun as with the original ones.

Do you mean playing FM07 with Puerta in the game or CM01/02 with Marc Foe etc?

Yes, for example. I wonder if it gives other people a weird feeling playing with players who don't exist anymore in real life.

I had Ray Jones (is that his name? from QPR) who was doing great in an 07 game for me when he died and that shook me slightly, but as a rule it dosnt bother me, normally theres a data update around the corner.
