This was the worst ******* idea ever. 10 hours later and I'm currently sitting in 4th position. How good is the streamlined version of the game?! Don't have to do all the pointless shit I used to hate.

Does anyone play Football Chairman?

It's a downloadable (free) game on ipad.

You start in tier 6 with a 2000 capacity stadium.
You just hire coaches, improve facilities and hire players.
But the computer deals with who plays and the like.

Best I've done without cheating is tier 2.

What I hate, is you need to get the players in (I try via academy) but they leave if your training facilities aren't good enough, so you better hope you can get promoted to keep the income coming in.

Once you become a power though, god help your opponents, they'll never touch you again.

Don't you feel removed from the game? I remember trying it and finding that I just didn't care enough to keep playing.

Is it just me or does every game end up 4-3 or 3-2 in FM? I don't know what to do with my defense. Thank goodness my attack is amazing!

Oh and 4:30/5:30 on a Sunday is the shittiest kick off time in the AFL.

Why can't we play at 2:40 on Sundays all the time. I don't want to wait all bloody weekend to watch some football.

We have to wait until 7:40 because of your backwards state.

Sunday night? **** off.

I'm using a 442 diamond. Have mixed it around a little bit and it doesn't seem to matter :confused:
Which team? Players? What are they set to etc etc?

I'm a firm believer that the best formation for this FM is a back 3 and two wingbacks.

I won everything at Rangers last season including the Champions League, losing only 3 games the whole season in all comps.

I'm now managing Sweden and i'm 3-0 in games played including beating England 4-3.
