Sorry, I forgot they are still reeling after their top scorer retired from football to become a suicide bomber for Al Qaeda.

His legs may have gone but he still could have lent a hand to the team.

Imagine you've got your friends and family over for a bbq on a Sunday afternoon. The drinks are flowing and everybody is having a great time, laughter fills the air. You go to your bbq to start cooking food, lift the lid and a huntsman spider who has been taking steroids launches himself at your face like a face hugger out of Alien v Predator.... I almost died of a heart attack that day!!

That sounds both terrifying and amusing in equal measure.

Woah woah woah.... Is the friend hot? Must be to have got a job after a chat!

If I was you I'd be kickin off Rick. If you want proper answers I would ring the Citizens Advice Bureau. If you dont then just tell the missus that you will be in financial ruin if her friend stays.

Meh, pretty middle of the road to be fair, not fat or ugly but not beautiful either.

My wife's friend has come up to stay for a couple of days which is ok by me, but earlier we went into our local pub with her and she started talking to the landlord who within a few minutes had offered her a job. this means that she will have t move in with us long term or at least until she gets a place of her own which could take a while. I'm not sure if I'm cool with that, being a rather anti social person at the best of times.
also does anyone know how having a room mate will affect our housing/council tax benefit? will they stop?

Thank you everyone for your opinions, but after much deliberation I have now made up my mind...

Name: Floriana FC
Nation: Malta
Nickname: The Greens
Founded: 1894
Ground: Independence Ground (Capacity: 3,000)


Yes, I have decided to begin my glorious career on the tiny Mediterranean island of Malta with Floriana FC. The Greens are one of the biggest sides on the island, having won the Maltese Premier League a staggering 25 times throughout their history, however their most recent success was almost twenty years ago in 1993. The Greens have lifted the Maltese national cup competition (U-Bet Trophy) recently after defeating bitter rivals Valetta in the 2011 final.
Floriana finished runners up to Valetta in last seasons Premier League which saw them qualify for this seasons Europa league, unfortunately they had already been eliminated by Croatian side Osijek when I took charge.
http://i1106.photobucket.com/albums/h361/Richard_Beale/4-9_zps7483e2ce.png

European prize money would have been nice but no matter, I have my sights set on the Europa Leagues big brother anyway. only the champions qualify for the Champions League here so my mission is clear. If APOEL Nicosia from Cyprus can reach the last eight of the CL in 2011/12, then so can we....with a bit of strengthening.
http://i1106.photobucket.com/albums/h361/Richard_Beale/1-39_zps36c41091.png

My squad contains a few familiar names among it's ranks, Tony Warner and Francis Jeffers (remember them?) are both former Premiership players, Carl Tremarco and Gary Roberts also both hail from England, they are on loan from Conference sides Macclesfield and Mansfield respectively. The chairman and several of the back room staff are also English so I shouldn't have any trouble adjusting here.
http://i1106.photobucket.com/albums/h361/Richard_Beale/2-23_zps9b95eab4.png

Franny will be leaving at the end of the season but he could be invaluble to us whilst we do have him.

The training facilities at the club aren't great and will need improving if we are to begin building a squad capable of transcending the national leagues and becoming a force in Europe. We should produce one or two decent youngsters with our youth set up though.
http://i1106.photobucket.com/albums/h361/Richard_Beale/3-16_zpsdca292b0.png


The strategy for this season is to try and make the best of what we've got, I don't want to go off and sign a bunch of players I know nothing about just to boost the squad, just to discover their money sucking leaches with no talent. I will be careful with our money for the first few years and look to put some funds into the piggy bank in order to mount an assault on Europe in the future.

throughout the course of day one I applied for almost forty jobs, for the most part because I liked the badges or kits, about half of those clubs have come back to me with offers so far, here's a look at my more interesting options;

Transfer: £0
Wage: £210pw (used £201)

Transfer: £55k

http://i1106.photobucket.com/albums/h361/Richard_Beale/usa_zpsc8413343.pngUSA
Transfer: £0
Wage: £220 (Used £218)
Pro: Would allow me to get my foot in the door of American football/soccer.

Transfer: £3.2k
Wage: £2.5k (Used £2.3k)

Right, after stupidly allowing the autosave feature to overwrite my David Beckham career I need something else to ease the sole crushing boredom of only working part-time, so I've decided to try my hand at by far the most popular challenge on any FM forum, the pentagon. although mine will technically be a hexagon as I have New Zealand and the O-League enabled.

I have loaded up all of the English speaking World that I have editor data for, with the exception of the UK and Ireland as they seemed to be frowned upon in this sort of challenge.

Well hopefully he will enhance his reputation at the Bescott.
He will be the fifth or sixth keeper we've had this year, club legend Jimmy Walker retired to become a coach, David Grof was shit and was released and there have been at least two other loanee's who have all been recalled to their respective clubs. We really need a bit of consistency between the posts now.

Michael Owen is retiring. BBC

Even though he has won plenty of trophies I can't help but think he never really fulfilled the immense potential he had in the early years of his career due to the amount of time he spent on the physio's table.

I really want it too, but i've seen far too much wrong with it to warrent paying out £40 for.

Yeah, same here, the videos and screenies all look great but I've heard a constant torrent of negativity towards the game

Why so many manager changes??

Does Roman Abramovich own your shop??



The first on basicly ran himself into the ground, lost about £20k somehow which I don't understand as it is a profitable shop on a busy high street with a post office built in so there are always customers in spending money. The second one got the boot for diddling his stock figures and writing off his own personal losses against his pre-predecessors. The most recent was offered a different store closer to her home so she left. Now we have another woman who I can't look in the face because her lazy eye makes me crack up.
