Default Few thing i dislike about FM08

No backpasses...ever

Groundsman dimensions....who cares?

Not being told about sackings. Im managing San Marino, but being english obviously want to manage in england, as my favoured club is torquay, surely i should've been told when the torquay job became available.

that is all

Go to your homepage where the finances and next fxtures etc are. In the top corner of each section is a drop down menu, click it and slect available jobs. That way instead of constantly being aware of wage bills that never change you will have constant view of jobs available or coming available.

Yes there is, my players often pass the ball acroos the defence and pass back to the keeper plenty of times. This may be down to the mentality you've set your players to. A more attacking mentality in a tactic will mean that players will look to play the ball forwards more than backwards.

I do. I play a very narrow style and like to force opposition players inside where I have plenty of players ready to tackle them. So a narrow pitch suits me perfectly. It's a decision you have to make once a season and can just leave it as default if your not bothered. Is it really worth complaining about?

This is a valid point, I'm still not too sure why the news items were split into 2. However their is a job centre where you can keep a regular eye on which jobs are insecure and may become available soon.

Those are the only things you dislike about FM08? :eek:

They are fair enough criticisms but they are certainly not what I would are the big problems.

With regards to pitch dimensions, I care, it may not be the biggest or most useful feature in the game but I don't see why anyone can complain about it. It doesn't really ruin the game it simply adds a little more to it.

I care! You're obviously too lazy to use it. Change it to suit your style of play. If you have one.

In that case you may be right. This doesn't happen as far as I'm aware and perhaps should on very, very rare occasions. Although saying that I can't remember the last time I saw a keeper in real life be stupid enough to do this.
