.....how many seasons back would you reload the game from, for Town?

I personally would only go back to when we got back in the League, and in that first season make a few different choices.


It seems from previous posts across a plethora of threads, the concensus of most people who say rewind about 20 years.

What an opportunity 2016 was.. Operation promotion completed the club fully thanks the fans on there help getting the club back up into the league..

Club gets season tickets out early to catch the wave..

Top players are rewarded with new improved deals..

What could possibly go wrong 🤔

Back to the late '30's when we were becoming an established top flight team before Adolf intervened.

Yes, 1939 it is. I’d rest George Tweedy for the game he got injured in then have a full-strength team for the FA Cup semi-final!

I love football manager. Been playing it all my life. Now play more on the tablet due to my laptop not being strong enough to support the newer versions.

I would say league 1.About where Grimsby should ideally be long term.

Just before the January transfer window in Slades first season. I'd tell him not to bother with signing any of them except Futch as it was his tinkering with the squad from them that saw us dropping out of the automatic spots


I don't mind Roy Keane making £60,000 a week. I was making the same when I was playing. The only difference was I was printing my own - Mickey Thomas

The area you are trying to protect at corners is the goal - Chris Kamara

I once said Gazza's IQ was less than his shirt number and he asked me: What's an IQ? - George Best

Same, although i started much earlier on the Amiga, Championship Manager (Domark).  It was full of made up names, then the following year brought players name (im assuming rights were agreed).  Then there was a split between Sigames and cant remember the other, it then gave birth to FM.

For the first time ever on FM i have gone the entire League 2 season undefeated (P46, W 44, D 2, L0) and i hadn't cheated.  Its the formation i play.

To the Buckley era when we were playing the best football I've seen at BP. Poetry in motion.
