So It Ends!

Facing off against a team that is on a hot run in the league with a WWWWW record I was expecting the worst. Game starts and after 30 mins they haven't had a shot I'm expecting the worst but there it is nice little exchange in the middle onto the strikers right peg to slot home from 10 yds.

Strange that's it no more shots from them dominate the game throughout, cost to 1 -0 and first win in 5 games.

My experience of the of BF hasn't changed much:-

  • Stage One - Team playing delightful football, your marvelling at how great you are at FM Live, tactics & signing players, your a genius.
  • Stage Two - Team not playing so good but your riding your luck a little.
  • Stage Three - It happens, a late goal, sending off, missed pen, other team comeback from 2 goals down. This is it the beginning.
  • Stage Four - This is the low point your team play badly now can't seem to catch a break. You don't think your a genius anymore but this is where the frustration kicks in.
  • Stage Five - Sometimes this is even worse but it's the opposite of Stage Two your not getting luck but your team are playing great. Drives you mental as nothing you do seems to get the result your desperately need.
  • Stage Six - It ends, for a time you won't be in any stage if your good with tactics you might get Stage One on again and if your really good at tactics make it last for a long time.

I'm learning man management lvl 5 now. Hopefully that will help me reduce the time between the bad stages, what is your level Jak?

Four I think, I don't think it makes much difference. Tell you honestly the thing that kicks bad form off is the thing that goes wrong in Stage 3.

I'm also convinced that Stage 3 is made more and more likely the higher your rank in proportion to your team strength.

Stage 1 is the opposite if your lowly ranked in relation to your team Stage 1 gets more likely.

I've only got Man management 4 and my morale never changes from superb really.

It sometimes drops to very good after a game, win lose or draw, but if you wait 5 minutes or so it just goes back to superb
