Basically i was on my Swansea game and i was speaking to my friend on MSN. I said in just over 2 months i could dominate England and win the Premiership. Then possibly the Champions Legaue. I think im swimming to deep but im going to give it a go. All you have to do is be one of the following: Cardiff - Championship Swansea - League 1 Wrexham - League 2 Choose your team, get them to the Prem, then win the English Premiership with a Welsh team. Post screenshots of transfers, final league standings, play ratings, and any other proof. It may seem easy but can you do it? Dont use any of the genie scout programs etc. Good Luck FMers!

But with the striker on the left with an AmC pushing fowards into the ST postion. It helps you dominate possesion more and can create more goals. Try play a direct, fast, attackin style of football. It may take a while for you team to get into it but when you have a good defence to fall back on, you can score for fun and rise up the table very quickly. | Current Game Ipswich Town FC: 07-08 - | | | | The Following User Says Thank You to RyanTheGunner For This Useful Post: | | 10-07-08, 02:17 PM | #20 (permalink) | | What Fed can do with a grape, I can't do with a beach ball!

Did u win the Prem Ru :o | Well, I done everything but win the Premier League and Champions League but I did reach the final of the Champions League and my highest Prem finish was 2nd. On topic, you seem to have done well that past month. You're not that far behind Braintree neither. A few more good months like this one then you could be up there in the play off spots. Keep up the good work. | | | |  | | | Thread Tools | | | | Display Modes | Linear Mode | Posting Rules | You may not post new threads You may not post replies You may not post attachments You may not edit your posts HTML code is Off | | | | | |
