Bit of a strange one that.
It would be an Arsenal player.
I'd love to meet some of the 8% of fans who would stop watching their team.
Apparently it comes with a small boost to finances too.
Nearly one in ten would stop watching the team they've supported all their life (in most cases) if one player came out? That seems unlikely, surely.Originally Posted by Yevrah
This is the most Miles Jacobson quote of all time.We also had to take some legal advice, because in some countries that are less forward-thinking than the UK, it is still illegal to be gay. In those cases we have simply respected their laws, so if a player is based in one of those countries, the player won't come out.
What a load of tosh.

Football Manager 2019 will have a key feature where everybody passes to each other at least once.
Does the player that comes out wear pink socks too?
What was Football Manager Touch like last year?
Wouldn't mind getting this this year but now sure my laptop can handle the full version or if I really want the full version.
Touch '17 was/is excellent. Not had a single issue with it and the cloud saving is vvv simple and effective if you're swapping machines/devices.
I just found it very detached, like nothing you were doing was making any difference. Was very 'just keep clicking continue' like older versions of the full game.
Patch out. Seems more stable and less laggy, can now zoom in on 2D view, and a load of other improvements.
Another small patch came out an hour ago

I like what they've done with 18 but it runs like absolute arse on my system due to no software mode, and me having Intel HD grapfics, so don't know if I'll bother this year. Not touched it in five days and I'm normally way down the rabbit hole by now.
I'm loving it this year. Runs okish on my laptop but its much better on my PC, hopefully after full release it gets better too.
I had a tough start with Liverpool but have them ticking over nicely now. Up to 5th, into the semi of the League Cup and we made it through the CL group stage. Barcelona are sniffing around little Phil though.
Patch has made this have a lot less lag, bar substitutions which is a known issue.

The 433 is utterly fucking brutal. You give up a ton of possession but its counter attacking brilliance. 7-0 v Dortmund, 8-1 away at Watford, 6-1 away at Roma.
If I buy a CD key from one of these random sites like instant gaming, can I play the Beta and all that?
Not if its an unaffiliated site.
You do with this, however :

Ta, that's the one I used.
On the train, lads
Thinking Milan maybe, this year. Or another damn save with Arsenal.
Lol the first thing that happens in this arsenal game of mine is that the damn 2022 World Cup is moved to Australia "due to Club protests about scheduling"
I've employed an attacking 4-3-3 as Cov and it seemed to work wonders. Was flirting with the playoffs until around December when it clicked and we couldn't be stopped and ended up walking League 2 by a mile. I don't know if it's the system I use of the fact that it's League 2, but I started my League 1 campaign by battering Plymouth 7-1 at home so the jury's still out.
Haven't got to grips with the scouting system yet, previously you'd ask for a report and they'd come back a few days later whereas now it goes into a whole scouting hub. What do the analysts do this time round?
Only a few games in so far, but from what I've seen having at least a few people up front and chucking the ball forward seems like the way to go here, even at a high level.
I made a possession based 2-3-2-1-2 (you know with wingbacks and 2 strikers) with Arsenal, and it worked OK but as soon as I start to play more direct I score more goals.
Starting to finally get in to this. Commentary only is still way too slow - however, it is a problem that SI are aware of. My biggest gripe is still that utterly disgusting UI - notably the awful half time tactics screen (horizontal pitch, ugly, ugly bright green background).
The two main graphical things that I didn't like where the pitch markings on news items like team of the week would stretch outside the pitch image itself, and for night games the pitch would be brighter than the sun. The most recent update fixed the former and I haven't noticed the latter in a while, but my title screen Vinnie Mac now looks like a pale ghost instead of the bronzed Adonis he was.
That world cup was almost always moved in 2017 too.Lol the first thing that happens in this arsenal game of mine is that the damn 2022 World Cup is moved to Australia "due to Club protests about scheduling"
Ah really, never noticed! I suppose I only did like 2 games on last version anyway.
Is there some specific reason they are doing that or is it just kind of a "political" jibe from SI?
I think it's so they don't have to arse about changing the schedule for that season.
They're big on consistency so anything that fucks with the normal schedule/calendar is probably going to get changed.
Oh shit, it's doing that weird fucking Penalty shootout system ABBA or what they call it.
Waterloo.

Check out the replies. Give it up, Guido, mate.
He's doing a 3,000 word (and counting) write-up and has a patreon for his FM shite. Fuck me.
The bigger issue there is that there's even one person paying money to make having it worthwhile.
These replies are clearly just the seething fury of n00bs calling "hackz" and "exploitz"
To be fair to him, his site is pretty good at times, I’ve read to and used to to make my own tactics.
There's that one person then.
I've been playing on and off for almost 20 years, but I'm absolutely shit at it. Does that make me a n00b?
Ha, I'd never pay like. His guide for setting up corners and free kicks was very handy though.
I don't think you should post here ever again tbf. Begone n00b!
How much of the TTH FUND does Mike have access to? Cause it might actually be all of us funding Guido’s merry little site.
The fund built the PC I play FM on, apart from that though I've not touched it.
Excited for this. Played 17 extensively on my mobile and enjoyed it greatly. Taking Denmark to a World Cup final being the highlight.
Didn't spend any time in England so I'm tempted by Wolves/Everton.
Anyone else still stuck on an older version? Got back into my FM12 save again recently, not far off the 1500 hour mark now.
An interview with someone involved in SI. I didn't get too far into it.

Fair play. Strangers pay him to play a computer game he likes.
We’re all only jealous really.

You say that but then a streamers life is basically being paid to be unemployed.
What a life that would be.
I'm a twit
It must be absolute buttons he gets, and given how fraught and defensive all his tweets are it must be pretty stressful as well. I'll stick with the Koreans.
