garry nope. u cant start at low rep clubs of many resons. for example the finances doesnt work and if u exeed your board expectations u get fired and so on.jimbokav have made very long and informative posts if u wanna read about it more.
also consider if u start as a small club u can never have more staff employd then when u take job at club.example some clubs conference clubs cant have more then 1-2 scouts even if they play in premiership and so on.same goes for coaches and psysios.

game atm is only playable with liverpool,arsenal and so on.fotball manager 08 include alot of other teams/leauges but they are not playable at all due to many resons.

iv started unemployed and got the job at redditch after a couple of months on holiday. iv just finished my first season and im doing pretty well (missed playoffs by 1 point but still not bad). will the game be worth playing in the long run if i install the patch later?

Well that dispells the problems of not being able to get better jobs in 07, lets hope its the same in 08. Good job btw :thup: sounds like a cracking game. </BLOCKQUOTE>

IMO it was a myth, as in my long-term career game, I got the following jobs (excluding offers I refused)

started in Bulgaria @ Botev Plovdiv
moved to Sparta Prague
moved to Spartak Moscow
moved to Helsingborgs
moved to Napoli
moved to Bayern

all in around 25 seasons...

Why?

As some posters already posted here, they got a job after starting unemployed. So why the need for the full patch? </BLOCKQUOTE>

I got a job in March of the first season with Hucknall Town without a patch. </BLOCKQUOTE>

I got a job at Vfb Lubeck in the German Regional Division North within 3 days, without applying, and on automatic reputation. Currently 1st after ten games. :cool:

I've been offered jobs at Ecija (Spanish B4), and QUB (N.Ireland 2nd div) when starting unemployed.

The problem is with the finances.

No you shouldnt.

I started unemployed- got the Billericay job, got us to the 2nd Division, then accepted an offer from Orient in Div 1.

That appears to work as it should.
