Good morning! I’ve got a confession to make. We don’t have a Tuesday writer at the moment. We’ve had a series of guests doing great things, I did a tactics blog with Nikolai but as Liam continues to take a well earned break from the A-Z game, I’ve had to dig deep to do something different. Inspired by the Lockdown challenge, I’ve decided to take the challenge of trying to take Northern Ireland to the World Cup from this position:
Impossible? We’ll see.
Continue readingHello! We’re back with the second part of our latest Talking Tactics series. Tactics guru Nikolai put forward the MW and it worked out quite well for Liverpool, which you can re-live here. I know what you’re thinking though – Liverpool are good anyway, is it really that good? After consultation with Nikolai, I took over at Blackburn to find out
Good day to you! It’s been a while but our good friend Nikolai has been doing such great work with tactics I felt obliged to give one the full test and analysis. What are we testing?
Welcome to the hall of fame! All we’re going to do here is keep a running record of the top scores in a whole host of categories. Let’s get to the ceremony (which will be updated periodically)
Our tactics king Nikolai has been out in the community asking the important questions: How do you win on CM9798 and can you share your ideas? I’ll let him explain…
Whilst playing one afternoon I dropped an idle question on Twitter.
Hello! For those of you who follow my Twitter ramblings, you’ll know a good friend of mine built a program to help find regens. I’ve had a go with it and it’s really quite good though it has some shortcomings. As a disclaimer, neither of us are in a position to offer an awful lot of help right now so I have put my understandings below and if you want to play around and report back, that would be great. Version 1 was released in September and then version 2 in October.
Continue readingHappy Father’s Day! It’s actually my first Father’s day and so to celebrate, I’m dusting off an old favourite and bringing you a list article. Not only that, it’s relevant! Here are 10 players in CM9798 who have son’s who are really good at football. This isn’t an exhaustive list, there are more than 10 footballers who have footballing children, just to be clear on that. Devante Cole was so close to making the cut. Anyway, on we go.
Seeing as we’re about to end the season as we know it and move to our summer schedule, your friend and mine CM_Hints is here to draw a line under the past 3 months. Like most of us, he’s spent it playing Championship Manager but he’s played more versions than most…
Over the past few months, I’ve had the good fortune to play my fair share of football management games from Championship Manager 2 right up to Football Manager 2020. I’ve had the chance to reconnect with past nostalgia as well as reassess and revalidate some of my views. Here are some of my musings:
The demand to play CM9798 has rarely been higher and my Twitter mentions have been bursting with people wanting to play CM9798 on their Android device. I know what you’re thinking – you have an iPhone. An iPad. Unfortunately, there isn’t a way to do that yet but one day…
Anyway, you’re probably also thinking you’ve known how to do this for years. You’d be right, Adam did a lovely video and everything which you can see here. However, apparently this is an easier way. I don’t have an Android phone, so I can’t comment. But the people have been heard and so I’ll hand over to our 2018 CM Cup Champion Ash (@CM_Hints) to take you through it.
Hello! We had an extraordinary response to the first set of social distance challenges we set a few weeks ago. With a long weekend ahead of us, I’ve collated some of your efforts so that you can take inspiration from them. Hopefully it’ll help keep you occupied whilst stuck indoors!
