That's not actually true. It has been shown scientifically. </BLOCKQUOTE>
By 1 person with 3 certain fish I believe is the most famous but probably more. He taught them using sounds, now how many fish are there in the world?

The Mythbusters busted it by each putting a fish in a maze with food at the end of it and then timed it. They both used different methods to train them but anyway they found that after doing it several times the fish managed to do it faster each time.

Although interesting as it is, my post wasn't about the habits of fish now was it?

But thanks anyway :thup:

I find it really difficult to recover from a nightmare run of games early in the season. Just hit January with a Leeds Utd game and had nightmare friendlies followed by really bad season opening. My full strength side lost 2-1 to Cobh Ramblers then got utterly outclassed by Bishop's Stortford losing 2-0 (could have been more) then lost 3-2 to Scunthorpe!?

Their morale never recovered and I'm 23rd in the league on Jan 1st. I had a brief spell where I changed to a 5-3-2 attacking tactic (default) and then had a good run of about 6 games before they just disintegrated again and I've lost 5 games on the bounce now. I just don't know what I'm doing wrong, other than my age old Footy Manager problem of getting off to a bad start.

Bad start = bad season in my experience. I don't really have a massive problem game to game though with bad starts.

Yeah, excellent reply, thats seems to be the normal trend with regards a nightmare start, thats why I asked the forum, I have found no real way of turning around a few bad results at the start, seems you may as well start again. I was hoping someone could help with some tips on how to turn this around as it does seem like a one way trip south.

Cheers

I managed to overcome a one goal deficit thrice in the same game and then score a winner in the 94th minute. I had a nightmare start that match, as I was already trailing in the 5th minute or so. So it's possible, but of course it's very hard as the odds are against you once you're a goal down. The match was a CL finale btw.

Good win, and I know the feeling all to well, I have yet been able to turn around a nightmare start to a game, players ratings drop and one goal becomes usually 3-4 and once that kicks in, morale takes a nose dive and the run continues example ages back, even with Arsenal ended up 19th after just 6 games due to this. Seems very hard to turn it around.

Cheers

First, the definition of "a couple", then "rabid" and now an in-depth discussion on the cognitive capacity of a Sturgeon. Gripping stuff!

LOL, yep this is the first time I have ever had one of my posts go off topic, enjoyable though I must say.

Cheers
