It's not the struggle getting out of the Conference. It's not the trudge through 46 League games and sundry Cup games in the Nationwide Leagues. It's not the endless refusals of players to sign for your Team.

It's that bittersweet time I call "the comfort zone".

That time you get after about four seasons in the Premiership, having dragged a Conference Club up through the Divisions, when you get pÃ*ssed off at drawing with ManUre, when you expect at least a point in the Champions' League at the Stadio Olimpico. When you've sold a World Class Argentinian DC to Dortmund for £70m knowing you've got a 20y/o your scouts found as a teenager who'll slot into his place without making the Team miss a step.

When you feel you've "made it".

Bittersweet because, although you've got the wind in your sails and are making good progress across the Sea of Achievement, it's time pack up your bag and head for pastures new. Because it's just not LLM anymore.

Will CM4 eventually have that?

I hope so

@ Evo

I'm still on CM3 so I'm not missing it yet.

Although I rebegan to play with CM3, I think that when the time is right (about 1000 years apparently ), I will change to CM4. But the things I missed in my short CM4 life was the simplicity, yet difficulty of CM3. CM3 is/was the best way between difficulty and playability. CM4 is just to much of all. The details ruin the fun and therefor the game is not as addictive as CM3.

Hope this was clear enough .
Oh, yeah. I also miss Manager stats though.

kovalenkov, I know that you're foreign and so I shouldn't mock your English, which on the whole is excellent BTW, but I think that rebegan is a superb word and I am certainly going to start using it.

Oi, mkus! There's no "foreign" in LLM. There's "Scottish" and "everybody else"

I've got to say, though, that "rebegan" is a magnificent word and if it doesn't exist, it should. :cool:

I like it so much I've tried to work its present tense into my profile.

This is a memorable moment.
It is the first time, that a Slovenian contributed to an English vocabulary
