Gaming CM 01/02 Hands-Off League - Signups for season 2016-17 Open!

I still got a couple over the line though! Guess that means by season was going really poorly... :nervous:

I always lost interest in these when the regens outnumbered the known players
Yeah that's why the transfers became a one post per season thing. It will be just random names, but will show who's investing.
 
Sorry mate, you bought no one... but if it makes you feel any better, your stadium now has under-soil heating and 35k seats.

Well that’s much more negative than I expected but still some achievements.

I presume the manager is happy with his current squad blah, blah, blah

I remember CM3, I had a regen at United called Nordin Pottier from france, I still think about his record whenever I see adverts for FM, and this thread.

He was a machine. Became Uniteds all time goal scorer in 6 seasons, 50+ goals a season on average. Was gutted when my PC died and I lost the save.
 
This CM iteration doing some top trolling here, managers and players.

Helps with the pain of having probably a billion in the bank and not spending it :lol:
 
The sweetest moment so far in the massive amount of seasons we've done. Hopefully they go bankrupt
Their finances are terrible, they had to sell 70M worth of players, including their star player to Rangers. Not looking good for the near future.

Summer Transfers

The market is slowing down when it comes to high value transfers, I think we've finally reached the point where everyone is so loaded and players so well distributed, the AI simply can't get many transfers done.

Surely I must have the worst team in this, can't even win a FA trophy.
 
Something funny I've been noticing in the clubs in lower divisions is that because the academy is set to 20, some clubs are actually not buying players because the academy players are better than the ones available.

So a few clubs only have around 10-12 players with contract but they're still beating most teams because their 18 year olds are better than the rest of the league. Of course this only works in the conference, league 3 and a little bit in league 2, but it's a curious development nonetheless.
 
Peter Van Der Meme had the top scorer and didn’t get promoted. At least he finished top half. CM gods having his eyes out here :lol:
