[Dragooner]

Yeah, I play for one of the clubs here in the Illawarra league, the junior section though but have started on numerous occasions for the Reserve team but generally sit on the bench for them.

Got a bench spot in first grade once (First grade sub goalie hit down with the flu) and was really hoping that the goalie got red carded or injured because we were versing last place (Haha Kemblawarra) and there chances were few and far between but unfortunately keeper was not red-carded or wasn't injured.

The season is nearly finished now, a couple more games and then finals, which we still may not make. We have a poor strikeforce (the junior side).

Anyhow, diving joke was a laugh! :lol:

[Dragooner]

So far (assuming a 4-4-2 formation is in play)

--------------SD----------------
--SP-Ridders-Tonearm-
-Lolesi-The Devil-Weasel-NP-
-------Phillips--Bumble--------

We need a left back plus some subs, not a bad team IMO. :lol:

 

[Dragooner]

Wouldn't it'd be sick if you could make all of us on FM07 with all the attributes and all and play us in the EPL. Imagine versing Arsenal, and, um....., well, there's really noone else to verse. But you get the point. Can anyone just possibly do so? I know I could do it on FIFA07.

 

[Tonearm Terrorwrist]

just go to the FM database editor and add a team then add players, edit them to your requirments so on and so forth then add the team to the EPL.

for stats i am a straight 20 and command £500k a month

Yep that's what I was gonna do...well, I was gonna put all the guys in the team then I thought we could decide which league to move the team into but the EPL always seems the logical choice.

BTW, how the hell do you change the name of a team in Editor? It's not working..:?

 

[Bumble]

Oh and where are hybrid and robyalvaro to give us some Italian stinginess to go with the German stinginess at the back. :lol:
