Portsmouth FC Team Discussion



This year, Portsmouth FC questionably pose the biggest challenge in Football Manager in the premier league this season; if not the biggest challenge in Football Manager. Their seamlessly never ending debts haunt you, their aging players and lack of depth in squad also add to that factor.

I started a Portsmouth game about a week ago, but decided to give up after my first 10 Premier League games of the first season. The reason; well it's pretty self explained; I couldn't conjure up enough money to buy anyone decent and when I did sell a player it would just go into repaying the debts. I had to work with what I was given and what I was given was at most still under 1 million; adding to that factor, the player wages I could sign declined my offer because of the such little wages I could give them.

With such little future in the club, as well as finances, players and reputation, will you take on the Portsmouth challenge this year? I'm considering starting a new career with them and shall try to buy some quality players which are Premier League standard and will actually come to the club.

Discuss the team and report your transfers and how your Portsmouth team is going.

re: Portsmouth FC Team Discussion

Portsmouth's real life transfer policy amazes me.

Buy: Tommy Smith
Sell: Niko Kranjcar

But anyway to the game. It would be an interesting challenge. You really have to be prepared to slog it out during the season and just survive. Once you have consolidated there would be a good amount of quality players available on free at the end of the season to strengthen your squad and there is a chance you will have been taken over.

Sounds like my next game after my current AC Milan save.

4 - 2(CM) - 2(Wingers) - 2(Strikers)

But I play defensively so they pass it around well and I hit teams on the counter attack.

re: Portsmouth FC Team Discussion

Nice result Crowy.

If you want to fix the problem with Arsenals and Tottenhams home kits, I'm presuming it's them just add a 2009 at the end of them on the Config file so it looks like that:

code
<record from="arsenal_home" to="graphics/pictures/team/602/kits/home/2009"/>


Just though I would try and help you.

Wow, terrific result! In my Portsmouth game - before I quit - I ended up beating Man U 0 - 1 thanks to Piquonne scoring an 87 minute goal. I played 5 - 4 - 1 and played the most defensive game possible ;P

re: Portsmouth FC Team Discussion

I was 5 games into my season then got *bleep*ing crash dumps and haden't saved it so I'm back to my first game of the season

Will re do it after I have done another season with FC United.
