Default Oldest manager ever?

Old man of Finland

My mate Pauli started a game with a 70 year old manager who turned 71 the day after the game started (pretty much the oldest you can be when the game starts) then went on hoilday all night, and 38 years later he's 108 years old!

I guess your never forced to retire.

Especially one who has been sitting on his arse doing nothing for the last 38 years.

You can go on for aslong as you want. Or aslong as your computer wants you too.

If I'm not mistaking, at some point your age will turn negative! Just like finances in the game.

Not possible. They seem to think that it's unrealistic to have a manager thats too young but they seem to have forgot about an upper age limit. Realistically who would hire a manager thats 108 and probably senile?

Depends really. Invaluable experience and all that.

Just made me think though...

Sir Alex Ferguson is termed "Wily Old Manager" on FM08. I'm wondering if a 108 year old would be termed "Senile and Incontinent Old Manager".
