Me for the last week - "Definitely not again this year, you can't put 100s of hours year after year since 1998 getting Coventry to win the Champions League, not again" 

 

Today - "Holy shit I've got a day off let's get that bad boy downloaded" 

 

Own worst enemy. 

 

Coventry manager 2019. These FM threads would not be the same without the annual Coventry odyssey instalments.

Is it just me, or do you a) get a lot more injuries in this version and b) get a lot more players complaining if they are out of the team for a few games?

Injuries during matches are high and its a confirmed bug. Pretty sure players are also complaining about things a lot more in general which they are also looking into. 

 

Hopefully they aren't going to wait until release day before releasing a proper bug fixing patch!

They will wait. Their beta period isn't really a testing period ahead of the finished game, it's just pushing out whatever the gold version on the disc is to people who've pre-ordered.

Thanks @spork. Glad it's not just me!

No injury changes in that one. Just a few fixes for some crashing issues. 

[5R7]

mmmm tasty placebo effect lol

[disperse and recoagulate]

Just told Unai Emery I'm not unduly worried by him pinpointing Firmino as a threat he can neutralise because I've got a lot of weapons in my arsenal. 

[5R7]

just as i say injuries are better...lose pedro obiang for 3 months

[Mike]

Just had the January transfer window close. Lucas Leiva signed for Real Madrid for £19million, it could go up to £24million! 

 

Heres the league so far.

[disperse and recoagulate]

How do I stop conceding goals from crosses?

 

Six in two games!

 

EDIT: SEVEN in three.

[5R7]

its fair to say, that somebody has fucked up some contracts in this

Griezmann - £800k

Messi - £1.2mil

Ronaldo £1mil

 

i mean...wtf lol

If you can’t beat em, join em. All my team does is cross now. Goals!

Are you having a laugh.

u wot

[disperse and recoagulate]

The amount of injuries is getting beyond a joke now.

 

 

I haven't had a full strength team once since I started playing (not including Ox).

[spork]

 

An unannounced feature being announced tomorrow? What could it be? 

 

 

[CovisGod]

The Brexit thing in this will be a killer for those like me getting lower league clubs up the divisions. 8k minimum wage? My highest earner is on about 2k

Miles ended up announcing that he can't actually announce what the new feature is.

 

In twitter comments he apparently mentioned he couldn't due to lawyers, which has got people thinking it's a new league license for either Japan or the lower German leagues they have removed from the beta due to the new Bundesliga licensing stuff.

 

Meh.

In terms of the player unhappiness, does that include with training? I've been leaving the new training to my assistant manager, but I seem to constantly get moans from my players that they think we should be doing a different type of training.

It's worth noting that this patch creates a new folder in the db folder, so if you do the real name fix, you'll need to do it again.

[5R7]

its fair to say you REALLLLLY need to keep on top of training in this init!? its damn annoying when you get a schedule that looks good for the month, then a match suddenly gets rearranged and it just puts it in, without auto setting recovery and rest and match review to the day after!

 

And yeah there does seem to be constant bitching about training from players...might help if the game actually explained what each thing did properly!

 

and that mentoring stuff...not a clue how that works!

[5R7]

2nd season, 3rd!

 

 

total transfer outlay ended up a bit higher, but, still a small profit! some of the january players are regens

 

highlight though...

 

 

 

and for next season...might be 33, but keeper so less of an issue, and,for free!!!

 

gota go striker shopping though lol

[Mike]

Had my first youth intake
