I know there are a few players of champ man on dvf and i wondering if any one was interested in an online game sometime. Also if any one wants to post any good players or tactics they have found please post them

I'd probably be up for it if you know how to get it setup.

As for tactics and players, I'm probably not the best person to ask as I've been sacked by Forest and now negotiating the league's nether-regions with a bankrupt Port Vale

It all depends on who you are managing. One thing to look out for is teams go bankrupt because then you can pick up all there best players on the cheap this usually happens to Leeds early on in the game, one player from Leeds who usually turns out to be a very good player is james milner.

Also when a team get relegated from the prem you can pick up players on the cheap.

Go with the recommended number of leagues - or less if you can get away with it, otherwise some updates will take AGES....and it appears to get slower the longer your career is as well,so bear that in mind.

One good tip - try to get a really good scout (the best you can attract to your team) and send him off searching for youth players.
Give it a couple of months and you'll probably have a list of promising 4 or 5* recommendations you can get on the cheap.

Another one that's worked for me in the lower divisions - work out which 2 or 3 positions you are weakest in, then look for players from the division above who are available for loan - and take them for the season.
A half-decent Div1 striker will run riot in Div2.

If the game is running slower the futher you get this is must likey down to a build up of Pkm files which is bascailly the files of every match you play deleting them should speed thing up a bit

i know its been a long time since the original idea of playing an internet game was mentioned and i just wondered if we can actually sort it out 4 one weekend preferably at the start of july wen my exams have finished

so if any1's interested (Mackey, Wintermute especially) put ur name down and i'm sure someone must know how to host it

cheers, Ben

I will be up for that if we can get a few people together

Setting up an online game look pretty simple we just need the person with the fastest computer/connection to do the hosting

oh and bagsy forest if we are playing a divsion one game
