Anyone play this? Where's everyone up to with their save currently?
I've bought each new release of the game since 2010, and I absolutely love it. I think 2013's is naturally the best one yet. Not allot of difference in terms of the game-play per-se, but the navigation is greatly improved and plus, I don't think it's as "easy" as games of the franchise gone by.
Well I started as Bolton, target was promotion. My only signing was Craig Eastmond from Arsenal on a loan deal. Mainly due to the fact that there was sod all money to barter with, and we were already over the maximum wage expenditure so I had to sell Chung-Yong Lee to Everton for £6m. I thought that was a pretty good deal, however I had no time to bring in a replacement, but no big deal, I felt had good cover on the right in the names of Eagles and N'gog. (Yes, N'gog!).
The season did not go to plan at all though. I lost my first four matches including a spectacular drubbing at the hands of our rival, Blackburn, which the fans obviously loved, and the pressure was on straight away. (On a seperate point, I like how if your first job in management, is at the top end of the leagues (Premiership / Championship), the board, and to a larger extent the fans are more demanding for results, as the fans didn't want me as the manager in the first place!.
So yeah, I was on a horrible run, I then was knocked out of the Capital One cup by Bristol City and then the pressure was really on. In the end, after 10 games, seven losses, 2 draws, and one win, I was relieved of my duties as Bolton Wanderers Manager.
Now, I'm the new manager of Bristol City, the expectations are allot more "secure" (fight bravely against relegation),and we've won our first two games against Leeds United and Bolton (ha!), so looking good at the moment. (Marlon Harwood is my key man!).
