Anyone else planning to get this?

As mentioned by Lipe in another topic, you can download a demo off the Sports Interactive site, which gives you all the English and Scottish leagues to play with for the first 6 months, which isn't bad at all.

You get some weird results though - I just beat Arsenal 6-1 with Chelsea (we can only hope, hey?) and also it's generally pretty hard to score.

Good fun though, looking forward to the full game.

WOAH! Two seasons already? You must of played it loads! I've only played 4 matches but I only got it last night.

i am waiting till my mates get CMnew and this and then see which is better, and get that one copied. i mean buy that one.

Considering getting this...it's the only chance Wycombe have of being promoted. Maybe I'll play as Stevenage instead.

I've finished 2 seasons with Chelsea.

First season, I came 5th(!) and won the league cup.

Second season, came 2nd, runners up in F.A. cup and lost on penalties in the League Cup.

bas.

All my players always get unfit, and whenever Torres is out (i.e. always), my team goes to pieces. 45 million rubbish.

But I can't afford it...

Meh.

Christmas.

Meh.

I tried to think up a witty organ-based response to that, but muh.

Just buy it.

So, is it any good? Worth me selling my kidney for?

Being my team, Woking, isn't so easy.

10 games in, 14 points (4 wins, 4 draws, 2 losses). Need to achieve a respectable league position.

About in line with our underachieving standards!

Winning far too easily right now. It'd better not be like CM4, or it'll get boring quite easily.

Or maybe I should just go a rubbish team... meh.

As do I.

Good, but still need to get my head round the menus a bit.
