Im usually hopeless at keeping a long term game going, I either always become the victim of my own boredness or a crash dump error before I get too far into a career.
I tried doing things a bit differently in my current game. I started off as a National manager with Spain, finishing the E2008 qualifiers then heading off to the Euro Championships with a view of seeing if I could win the comp, and then maybe land a contract at a big club.
However I didnt get a contract at a big club, I instead had the chance to clear up the mess the previous manager at Birmingham had made, getting them relegated and losing most of the first team squad.
Since then I won promotion in the first season winning the playoff final, and at the moment am sat in 11th in the prem and 5th round of Carling Cup. This is one of the first times an FM08 game has kept me hooked for so long.
Great guide there abs BTW!!! |
