That book is absolutely dire. I wouldn't bother finishing it - I did, but to this day don't know why I bothered. One of the worst books I've ever read.

Being a yankee who loves soccer or "football" from my time in college, I've followed english soccer from a distance for a long time. Witht he advent of the internat, I've been able to readopt my original favorite team, the Potters from Stoke City---(I live in Cleveland, Ohio--check out the history of American soccer for the reason why)

When I started playing CM o1/02, I instinctively played the LLama way wothout knowing it. I didn't have the innate knowlege then of the beautiful game. But I find the game just a waste of time if its not played as a Llama. Now, as I've learned more about the "culture" of how the game is lived, I can't even conceive of playing any other way.

Finding out where the hell Billericay is.

I also derived some sadistic please out of beating Stoke tonight.

For me it's a variety of things. Right now it's getting that one point, even though I haven't taken all three yet this season. I Like knowing that even though I may not stay up this season, my players will be better for it and next time we'll likely stick.

I love the struggles of managing my roster. Do I keep my key player that I won't be able to re-sign, or do I sell him and maybe get relegated?

I also love the forum, I don't post much, but I always enjoy spending some time reading what y'all do.

This forum and the hut.

As for the game, others have said it well. It's just the way the game should be played. Period. Yes I enjoy it, but compared to what? Not playing. That's the only other option.

Yeah, agree with above posts - the fairness, the challenge, the sheer feeling of achievement etc - but there's also this sort of secret club thing going on.

Despite the fact that the rules are clearly stated in the header, it's like the whole thing is a mystery to the outside world.

And, on a side note, when do you truly become qualified to call youself a LLM? Forum dabblers like me aspire to be one or should it should just be for the real hardcore?

You can call yourself a LLM in an instant you start playing by the rules and guidelines in forum header.

Whoops.

As mentioned already, it's the sheer happiness of getting places with a team you've built from scratch. It's the road that's interesting, not where it's leading you
