I would love to keep my motivation for the same team long enough to see them in the Champions League, guess most people are the same as me and move on after a few seasons |

Agree with all of the above. I am at Braintree at the moment but if a bigger clubs comes calling they won't see me for the tinted windows on my new porsche! :cool:

I'd like to reconsider my statement. I'd prefer to take a team as far I can e.g. stick with them and get them up the leagues. In FM08 this doesn't seem to work for me because I either get relegated, fired or my contract isn't renewed...

I'm a serial job hopper, though I did stay at Catanzaro for 6 seasons.

I often find if i've been with a team for a few seasons, say 5 or 6, and even if progress has been rather limited, I more often than not regret jumping team.
The best i have ever done is taken Northwich the whole way to the championship, but I then jumped to Newcastle in the Prem, and just couldnt get into it at all, and really regretted moving

I try to move on from lower league clubs as soon as I can. I'm not interested in managing at the bottom of a league structure for my whole career.
| I sometimes do this, but then find out that it usually means a quick end for my save. It's boring at the top, and once I get there I find myself longing for the days when my scouts can find nowt, and I get all excited when I sign some unkonwn guy who has four or five stats with double figures. I like taking smaller clubs all the way to the top, but don't enjoy so much jumping to a bigger club - I'm very loyal.
I still remember that one of the biggest joys I've had with this game was in CM 01/02, when after many, many seasons, I won the Champions League with Notts County.

In my current save, I have spent as few as 74 days (Excelsior) and as long as 1957 (Lecco), however, Gimnasia are a close second with 1164.
However, I approach switching teams in LLM as dancing, a few steps sideways in similar leagues, a few steps back and some forward.

I only go top another club when I'm forced to leave. I never resign or reject a new contract. When the club decides they had enough of me I feel it's time to move on. I never look for another club when I contracted to a club. Sometimes I do check out the "Jobs" screen and then I see some clubs which seem to be nice to manage, but I never apply for a job.

That's my usual behaviour also (partly because I'm afraid of ****ing off the board by applying to a position at another club).
