O/T To those off you that have FM 06.

Bought the game tonight, and haven't got a clue on how to slash the wage bill by 3k and keep us up??? Impressed with the detail in the game, and the snapsnots of players!

[Ian_D]

I sold the players on ridiculous wage bills e.g McCarthy and then bought in players on Frees...

 

Came about 8/9th in first season!

 

Good investments in strikers I have found is Allan Tait (yeh yeh I know Canvey!) and Jamie Forrester (can't remember where I got him from!) Both of them were on less than £100 a week!

 

Also Sam Alsop was a good buy for me, got him on a free fighting 4 other clubs them sold him the next season for about 50k I think! Not a bad player either...

[EUFC superb]

Julian Hornuss got 20 goals for me. (On loan from MK Dons.)

Lee San from Sheff Utd is a good buy half way during the season. I bought Lee Boylan in on a free from Canvey as he was listed and he scored a hat-trick against them!

Anyone know where to get decent defenders?

How do you guys get the patches to work?

I've downloaded the World soccer manager one but it says it won't work on FM 06

[Jimmy]

That's because they're different games superb.

 

Download the patches from the sigames website.

[Jimmy]

The new update is out now.

 

Look in the sigames site for servers.

[mikefleet]

On top of the patch not loading the actual game wont play on my laptop, I can install it but it just wont play?

[FleetFanatic]

Is this after you downloaded a patch for a different game into the game's files?

 

If so, uninstall the whole thing, delete and files remaining and then re-install it.

[gnfc123]

Na it just wouldnt play on my laptop so I had to install it on my computer it works fine on that but it takes 4 hours to download the patch....technology....lol
