And all those fanboy chavs who (laughably) insult those of us with jobs and lives with their 'text speak'.

Was that a default tactic or your own?

It was the tactic the computer gave me at the start.

And why was my last thread closed?

So, anyone enjoying the game (in spite of any issues) is an unemployed bum with inadequate levels of literacy?

I started by asking politely what I was doing wrong, only to be told to check stats, tweak every minute little detail and download alsorts of training schedules and tactics that probably only work with ManUre. It seems to me that *some* on these forums have way too much time on their hands if they take their own advice. And there is nothing more infuriating than text speak. I work with kids in my job. On the whole, they are illiterate.

The first post you made about this made the implication that anyone who does well on the game spends their whole time playing it.

Come back when you have less of an attitude. You say you work with children but you sound like a whining little child yourself. I think it is you who needs to grow up.

You don't need to tweak every little detail to do well on the game. I haven't changed my tactics for 10 seasons and have no problems at all. I have a life thank you very much, and I have managed 10 seasons by playing a few hours each week since the game was released. Hardly taking up all of my free time.

Think I'll keep my own council on where I go and how long I stay thanks. I am frustrated by the game. I expected to lose to MK Dons and have a tough season ahead of me as the Stags, as they are in real life. But they don't have just three points and a goal difference of -37.

The game's a joke. Not unlike you.

If all is at it seems that match is/was laughable.

The one thing I have noticed is that the keeper isn't listed on the Mansfield website so I think it's only fair that I ask, is he a goalkeeper?

I only ask because I've had an outfield player in goal before during some serious DMing.

I'm a joke ? I'm not the fool who managed to lose 11-0 then felt the need to register on a forum to complain about it.

For the record I think FM08 is horribly flawed and is the poorest version for a long time. However it doesn't detract from your idiotic assumptions that people who are good at the game have no life. It only takes a minute or so to change tactics if you want to, but you don't even need to do that to be sucessfull at the game.

In the other thread you asked for advice, you were given some, then you decided to ignore it all and just complain about the game. Just go download some tactic from the tactics forum which some nice chap with no life made, then you wont have to spent years messing with them.
