Ever Killed A Team?

I'm actually quite surprised I still get hired after my Falkirk incident.

Hmm maybe I'll add another manager and steal a couple of Celtic players, they keep sticking their noses in my transfers.

I'm currently doing the same with Barcelona. I'm trying to sell all their players and replace them with rubbish free transfers. I've moved all their first team to the B-Team and registered them and gone on holiday until January.

I've also sent a load of them I couldn't sell to an Italian feeder team.

I am in control of Harrogate in the lowest english league, but created another user just to see Chelsea go down. Donated all their money by buying terrible players from Dundee, sold all their players, and then again used all their money recieved from the transfers. Then I fired all the staff members, and signed just horrible players from free transfer and offered them the longest contract possible with the highest salery and of cause 25 % wage raise. Now to seasons later they are in recievership, already owing the bank 450 million punds, and about to be taken over by the third board in just two years. I just hate Chelsea if you have not realised that yet

Why not do it to a team that is better than Chelsea? I don't know if you guys have played for one season, but Arsenal and Man U completely own Chelsea (sadly) in the league.

"Sounds like sour grapes to me"

I did something more fun in FM07.

I was managing Villa. There was a broad takeover and the new owner decided to sack me and employ someone else. So I went back to my save 2 weeks ago (I have a rolling save every two weeks) and offer every single players a 5 years contract with the highest wages (about 40000 a week i think) plus a 25% annual rise plus maximum bonus.

Two weeks later i got sack as expected. What they have left then was a huge wage bill which they can't maintain. The new manager can't sell anyone due to the high wage. With the 25% rise it get worse every season. The slump all the way down to the league two and bankrupted a several times on the way. They change manager every few months but nothing can help them get out of the rot..

as i do in every game i play.....i set man utd rep to 10, gave them minimal training and youth facilities . got rid of their best players, and then signed all the rest to maximum allowable contract 25% yearly increase. sacked all their staff, fined and criticised all remaining players.
spent all their transfer budget on rubbish players, signed up all the useless unattached players to further increase their wage bill.
then i sit back and enjoy :cool:
