Great podcast but can we do goal of fm13 in the forum? Davide Santon 50 yarder would win. In the forum.

Enjoyed the podcast, I didn’t follow the latest FM14 announcements so it was cool that you guys went through them. The new tactics system sounds like a massive change. I think it seems simpler AND more realistic. In real life a manager will give verbal instructions, not instructions on a sliding scale of 20. I can see why hardcore tacticians won’t like it, but it sounds good to me.
And I like the testimonial idea, usually tesimonials are for players who’ve been at the club for 10+ years, so it shouldn`t happen too often.
Thanks for answering my question, I remember the CM 2 box well. It was one of those giant cardboard boxes PC games used to come in. Actually I remember I spent 100 quid of pocket money to buy 4mb of RAM so I could play that game :)
I don’t have a question for the next pod yet, but I’ll try to think of one to save Gerald an appearance :)

Thanks mate, glad you enjoyed the episode. Interesting view on the tactics also, more realistic but I do feel some gamers will not be happy about losing some of their freedom with the tactics as sliders gave exact options whereas these instructions are do this, or do that, there’s no middle ground.

TWO questions for the next podcast. Who are you gonna manage first on FM14?
I’m gonna go for my first ever pentagon challenge, so my second question is, do you have any tips for playing a pentagon challenge?

Nice podcast again guys, all these features, well most of them anyways are making me soooo excited for the new game, I just can’t wait :D
I don’t really have a question for the next episode, just if your doing it after the new game release I guess it would be good to hear about what you’ve been doing in game and what you think of the game ect ect.

I rather like the questions section of the podcast. Shame there was only one :p oh well… for the next podcast, «What is your BIGGEST bogey team across all fm versions? What teams can you just not seem to beat from year to year?» Mine has to be Southampton! For the past 4 fm games I just can’t seem to get a result against them home or away. Great podcast as always, cheers
