    Just had a rather insane (and very stressful) CL qualifier against Helsingborg.

    I had won 2-1 at home in the first leg. I went defensive to try and consolidate my lead, since I had a congested fixture list and lots of injured strikers. Davis scored to take it to 3-1 but they instantly hit back so it was 3-2 on aggregate and one more goal would mean they'd take the game to extra time.

    The assistant referee signals five additional minutes. On 97 minutes the referee awards Helsingborg a penalty because one of my defenders handled the ball. Helsingborg duly scored, tying up the game. At that point I was absolutely livid. After 99 minutes, Fleck ran into the box and was tripped. I was awarded a penalty and their defender (as the last man) was sent off. Fleck stepped up and scored. The final whistle was blown on 101 minutes. I have never had 11 added minutes before.

    If I fail my A-Levels, Football Manager will be the reason.

    I'm not doing anything today so I will either continue with my Plymouth save or play some Civilisation. Haven't decided yet.

    I still won :eviltongue:

    Though got a bitch of a CL group for my trouble. Arsenal (parent club vs feeder club), Werder Bremen and FC Timisoara. Third's a good possibility, but as much as I'd love to get second to try and help the country's rankings (so I can get in at the group stage rather than going through these qualifiers :p:) it'd be a really tough ask.

    Only because he wasn't playing :smug:

    Are your loaned players allowed to play? I hope you crumble, since it's not the real life rankings :sogood:

    When's the next update due do you know?

    just the loan repayments are a killer

    Edin Džeko for £15million that will do

    Conor Wickham is really **** on my game 6 seasons in. In Aston Villa's reserves last time I checked
    He's anything but on my game.

    3 goals in 25 england games is a bit bad, though.

    I've only the one player on loan and no, I'm pretty sure he can't play against Arsenal. Not that I particularly care right now since he's played seven or eight games and only scored in one (albeit scoring both goals in a game we won 2-1 :p:). The young Swedish regen I got for £500k seems to be doing a much better job.

    I hope you crumble, since it's not the real life rankings :sogood:
    If I do, I hope to see Celtic failing miserably in the qualifiers just like they failed at the first hurdle this season (they were knocked out of the qualifiers by Lyon). Rangers are flying the flag for Scotland alone in the Champions League again

    When's the next update due do you know?
    SI never give out a release date for the final patch (or any patch, for that matter :p:), instead using a developer's favourite line: "It's done when it's done". The window for the final patch is typically mid-February to early March, though...so, I'd say three to five weeks as a rough guess.

    My Plymouth side came off the back of a 5-game losing streak to hammer Peterborough 7-1 and stay just above the relegation zone.

    Barazite and Murphy proving excellent loan deals.

    In 2031 with Bayern Munich after a career with Coventry and Fiorentina before. Think it's coming to retirement time.

    Just had my biggest ever league win. 8-0 against Osasuna, who just happen to be my fierce rivals.

    Wow, he looks beastly. Amazing physicals and he can head and finish to boot.

    I have never played a Civ game but am considering Civ 5. Would you recommend it?

    That's more like how I expected him to turn out, maybe it's just that not getting in the Villa side for the entire duration of the game has cost him.

    If the gameplay is anything like the rest of the series, then yes.

    It can get incredibly addictive, and online play can be quite fun if you have enough free time. Remarkably easy to get used to but the difficulty hikes up pretty quickly as you go through the 8 or 9 different settings.
