I also swear by Bentley on the right for Toon.

For me the first one is yes the second one probably no. Its a bit like what Keegan did when he first game to Newcastle as manager. Score more goals than you concede! My last game was NUFC 5 v.s 3 Birmingham(A) Also i am very proud of this result lol.Probably Because I am a Football Manager noob and i have never done this but what the heck I might as well put it on.(Screenshot below) Last edited by soulzNUFC; 05-07-08 at 07:28 PM. | | | | 05-07-08, 07:27 PM | #10 (permalink) | | Important First Team Player Join Date: May 2006 Location: Near Colchester, Essex Posts: 675 Thanks: 184 Thanked 124 Times in 120 Posts Nominated 2 Times in 1 Post TOTW/F/M Award(s): 0 | It does seem a weird tactic but it's working so no complaints lol KUTGW | | | | | The Following User Says Thank You to BirdyFC For This Useful Post: | | 05-07-08, 07:49 PM | #11 (permalink) | | Important First Team Player Join Date: Jun 2008 Posts: 776 Thanks: 168 Thanked 157 Times in 155 Posts Nominated 0 Times in 0 Posts TOTW/F/M Award(s): 0 | WOW didn't think it could get any tougher after that I was wrong though I then lost to Liverpool 1-0(H)Then Liverpool again 3-3(A) THEN... arsenal Who I beat 1-0(H) Last edited by soulzNUFC; 05-07-08 at 08:07 PM. | | | | 05-07-08, 10:36 PM | #12 (permalink) | | Important First Team Player Join Date: Jun 2008 Posts: 776 Thanks: 168 Thanked 157 Times in 155 Posts Nominated 0 Times in 0 Posts TOTW/F/M Award(s): 0 | Wow this tactic seems to vary a bit.

King Kewell signs for toon Same old Rennie...  Rennie---- Newcastle have perfectly good goal disallowed. Now Soulsby wants rid of Rennie. | | | | 07-07-08, 07:15 PM | #19 (permalink) | | What Fed can do with a grape, I can't do with a beach ball!
