Championship Manager Rules!!! Your thoughts and stories!

[redtom]

Hi, I read one forum where it discussed CM, but it wasn't exclusively for the game, so it is!

1. Whats the most addictive game who've played?
2. Are you a big team manager or little team manager?
3. Whats your best/worst buy?
4. Who do you support? (I know its nothing to do with the game)
5. Your best year?
6. Your vintage team?
7. Oldest/youngest player, played?
8. When did you first play? Which version?
9. Your funniest named player?
10. Your best free transfer?

I'm sure theres more questions, but thats enough to get started with.

p.s. This is for all versions of the game from CM[1] to CM[3] 01-02.
p.s.s. Are you having problems getting on to the official forum on SIGames.com?

1. Go Ahead Eagles, Dutch league 97/98.
It was extremely topsy turvy, until I had all my players stolen of me with big-club release clauses [Big club release clauses working when your 4th?]. I had the classic players, Jugovic, Svindal Larsen, Gudjohnsen, Maric, Sambrosa (highly recommended) some v. good welsh geezer (Evans?), I can't think of them all.

Kidderminster - WBA - Cardiff - Kidderminster - WBA.
Promoted two seasons in a row, looked liked I will relegated, so I jumped train to WBA, won everygame I had left in the First Division! Went from 18th to 1st in half a season, relegated from the premier div, went to Cardiff, promoted to 1st Div. Left for Kidderminster, got promoted to first from second. Left for WBA. got promoted to Premier, and again got relegated. Then finally gave up!
OR Puteolana 01-02
I'm still playing it now!

2. Small team,
Except the several times I've failed to win the Scottish Premier with Celtic. It was so damn infuriating!

3. Best.
Mostafa Saad 01-02 - Not real name
37 and still scoring!

4. Worst
Ibrahim Bakayoko - Meant to be superb, all my friends told me, didnt do anything

5. Celtic 97/98
All the scottish cups, and the Championship League (a rare honour for someone who only likes to play in the small leagues)
OR Newcastle Breakers 00-01
Won everygame in the season, became the Nigerian manager all in one season

6. Go Ahead Eagles.
Written above
7. Oldest
41 - Arnor Gudjohnsen and still scoring in every other game! 97/98
Youngest
15 - Can't remember of the top of my head, NI though.

8. '96 - On the one preceding 97-98(?) It had the Italian Serie A and B divisions only, played a lot at Lecce and Lazio.

9. Foeke Bouy - Dutch league 97/98

10. Arnor Gudjohnsen - Scored every other game until 41!

Anyway, this is my carreer

Thats quite a lot of clubs, I tend to stay at one until won everything I can then I end the game. If I don't I tend restart or in the case Celtic keep at it for 16 seasons, never won more than the UEFA and Scots cup
