bulletsponge, glad to see an FM14 dynasty on these boards, especially since the beta version is now out. Question... is Steam a requirement to play FM 14? Do you have to have steam installed and running?
I have no issue with steam personally, but my computer tech (who is about 70 years old and always grumpy anyways), absolutely hates Steam. Any time he does anything to my computer and finds Steam on there, I hear about it for days upon days. Hearing him gripe and complain for weeks is just not worth the price to get FM14 if I have to have Steam to run it. |

Time to get a new computer tech! |

im not sure. i DL it from steam, but i know you can play it offline without steam running(at least last version you could) |
scout found a new left back on the free. old man McSweeney wasnt haking it and his contract runs out mid season (1st time ive seen that) this new guy Giverin was out of contract from Man U and is way better than McSweeney. McSweeney had the lowest rating by far on my team, 6.54 and it will be nice to have his contract run out in december and his 64k a year off my books. my true starting LB Chantler was injured with torn ankle ligaments before the season and he still has at least 2 months out before his return. heres the records of my last 5 games. as you can see i win some, i lose some. |

I demand 20+ seasons. :)

oh you'll get it, but back to season one after that horrible stretch were i fell to the 20 spot, i got on a better run and moved up to 17th place but opened up a 8 point spread away from the drop i should note that my 1st season is always just a rebuilding season as i try and find young players for the future in ireland and hopefully a prospect in my own youth intake. it will likely be 3-5 seasons before i get promoted |
ps another NSFW massage therapist applied for our job opening

great news. first off we lose a game and then win a game. Carlisle now sits 14th a full 10 points clear of relegation zone. also i go on the hunt for a new defender due to injuries and suckiness and i find Repka. sure hes slow, but all my centerbacks are slow
also an agent approached me offering the services of Alan Smith of former Man U fame and english international. ive always wanted this guy because he would be good at the league1 lvl and her makes an excellent mentor for my young midfielders |
ive gotten healthy against weak opposition
youth intake next! |
heres the only guy worth much of anything from my youth intake
ive seen guys like this come thru my intake before at this lvl. he will be poached at the end on next season most likely. i aint goina lie, i do reload the file if i dont like the youth intake a few time on another good note, North Ireland had thier youth intake and thats a solid place for a team at my level to grab some cheap regen players from |
last stretch of the season i finish the season at 15th place, 3 spots better than predicted. and remember what i said about the young stud regen i just got McAleavy? Stoke is already sniffing around him and he wont resign a new contract with me already. i did manage to sign 2 youngster regens from Wales, ill post them once they join the team |
top Carlisle players for the 13/14 season
scorers 1- Junior Agogo 22 goals 2- Lee Miller 15 goals 3- Mark Beck 13 goals top Rating Danny Livesey |
heres the 1st guy i bought. a 15 yo Welshman from Rhyl. scouts think he could become a leading Premier league midfielder!
he cost 26k, leaving me 20k left in the kitty. but i should be freeing up some funds once contracts end in a month and a half |
Nice, hope you make a profit on Gray

Ok offseason update
the club is currently 500K in the hole i had to sell my starting GK Gillespie for 214k which isnt bad, considering he wasnt much better than my backup or GK's that would soon be free. i let 10 players leave on a free, freeing up 900k in salary cap, or half my wage bill :). my team is real thin at fullbacks and left wingers. i got for free this guy, another central midfeilder scouts think he could become a decent PL midfielder also 2 PL clubs (Liverpool, aston villa) made low offers for young striker McAveavy. and currently 5 PL clubs are sniffing around him. the only way theyre getting him this year if they make an offer my chairman cant refuse |
American Cody Cropper brought in to be the starting keeper. Iranian keeper Santangelo will start roughly 1/3 of games
Highly scouted foward larmour. scouts think he could become PL quality downside is his casual personality. ill need to mentor him if hes to fullfill his potential Simpson, has all the makings of a good PL centerback according to the scouts Simpson and Larmour coast about 90k eack |
Sean McAleavy was just named to the Euro U19 Dream team substitutes. hes still only 15
my team seems complete and im done with preseason. ive loaned in a RB, LB and a AMC/ST to fill out my roster |
are there any screenshots anyone would like to see? or any additions that would make this dynasty better?

scouts found a cheap englishman in wales. think he could be a good championship defender
|
Sheldon's going out on loan for 3 months.
Home against Portsmouth i couldnt handle bradley wright phillips speed and he scores 2 beating us 2-1 goals Gillies (1) assist Tankovic (1) great news! promising foward Sean McAleavy fired his agent and i swooped in and offered him a new contract, hes now signed thru 2018 and will turn pro when he turns 17. i still doubt i can keep him for long, hes playing great and PL clubs havnt stopped sniffing around @ Port Vale we get a big road win Goals: Agogo (1) assist Symington (1) Skybet league 1 action @ Preston woot! 3-1 win! Goals Amoo (1) 0'Hanlon (1) Beck (1) Assist Potts (1) Lynch (1) |

Johnstones Paint Throphy time
i get a league 2 team Rochdale @Rochdale unfucking real. we lose 2-1 despite dominating the first half but not scoring Goals Todd (1) Assist McAleavy (2) |
Yeovil comes to town and i decide to let my assman handle this game
3-0 for a win. i hope the board doesnt fire me and replace me with my assman, he did a great job Goals Livesey (2) Symington (1) Robson (2) Assist Symington (3) Agogo 2 (2) Gillingham comes to town :banana: 2-1 Goals McAleavy (4) Gillies (2) Assist Potts (3) |

Standings update?
|
|
heres my current financial condition. im only spending 1,050,00 of 1,700,000 of my budget, so i have 650K free to spend on salaries and transfers still. but due to being in the red i have to spend fairly cheaply and on youngsters that i can sell for later. no fully developed players for me!
scout just found a great irish striker with PL potential, but he doesnt want to join me |
back to the games. FA Cup time
1st round, a div 2 team Northhampton visits us turns out a boring game with few highlights. youngster Brough did score his 1st pro goal of his career Goals Brough (1) Agogo (3) Assist Gillies (2) Amoo (1) we draw Gillingham for the 2nd round. i hope to beat them and then hope to draw a PL club in the 3rd round Skybet League 1 @ Doncaster. im not expecting a win wasnt even close. i get a consolation goal in the end 2-1 Goals McAleavy (7) Assist Amoo (2) |
Home against Crewe, another team in the playoff picture
i had to dig into the u-18 to find some defensive depth we win 2-0, Larmour getting his first 2 goals Goals Larmour 2 (2) Assist Tankovic (2) Gillies (3) Traveling to Tranmere. due to youngsters missing on international duty, im going back to 4-2-3-1 formation lost 1-0. we didnt play bad, just didnt have the finishing touch |
Chesterfield
:banana: we roll 4-0. Larmour with an assist hattrick and Shldon gets his first game for us Goals Symington (2) Tankovic (1) Beck 2 (3) Assist Larmour 3 (3) Potts (4) @ Oxford tie 1-1. Simpson gets his first ever goal and MoM. but hes tired and jaded, need to rest him for a week or so Goals Simpson (1) Assist Symington (4) Big FA cup game, 2nd round @ Gillingham. if i can win this game then i get a chance at a big $$ game vs PL opponents. and i need $$ woot we win 1-0. they outshoot us 17-4, but were the ones that got a goal :P Goals McAleavy (8) Assist Noble (1) |
im getting messages after almost every game about one of my players needing a rest. ive been playing 2 games a week, and with my young team they get tired faster
FA cup draw. i didnt draw @ a big PL team, but i got the next best thing, a home game against div 2 team York. should be a win Skybet L1 Vs Walsall lost 0-2. not my best showing current standings |
Vs Rotherham
we fall behind and score 2 goals in the last 20 to pull it out! Goals McAleavy (9) Simpson (2) Assist Tankovic 2 (4) @ Sheffield United. theyre a tough team easily one of the most entertaining games ive seen these 2 seasons. we get off to a quick start as Symington scores only 50 seconds into the game. then shit happens. Sheffield scores 4 straight goals before the half. i score 2 more goals in the 2nd half but youngster Nigel Watts picks up 2 yellows (in only his 2nd start for us) and we fall 4-3. probably the most highlights ive seen this season with many close goals Goals Symington 2 (4) Beck (4) Assist Beck (3) McAleavy 2 (4) @ Coventry Another schlacking. we lose 4-2 Goals Agogo 2 (5) Assist McAleavy (5) Todd (1) |
vs MKDons
back to winning and the 4-4-2. 2-1 win Goals Beck (5) Larmour (3) Assist Sheldon (1) Robson (1) some bad news. 2 carlisle original youngsters dont want to resign with me cause they dont think the club can match their ambition. this is new, normally you can resign 17 and 18yo. Potts and Brough are the 2. i like potts, hes a good player. brough has 5* potential and should make it to the championship. damn now Beck wants 100k a year! a string of 3 games in 5 days is going to strain my team. Christmas time of year @ Swindon 0-3. our butts hurt 3rd game in 5 days @ Leyton Orient Limp to a 2-1 loss Goal Beck (6) Assist Larmour (4) |

FA cup time. York is coming to town. should be an easy win
well it started out real bad. i fell behind 2-0 in the 1st half. i scored early in the 2nd half but then i pulled a rabbit out of my ass by scoring 2 goals in the last 6 minutes. we made it much harder than it should have been. Att 10,638. huge crowd Goals Gillies Agogo (6) McAleavy (10) Assist Repka (1) McAleavy (6) Liverpool, Man U and Man city are all eyeballing McAleavy OH FUCKIN HELL YEA! 4th round draw has us GOING to Man United! :banana: of course Man U still has to beat Dag and Red, which even i could do. im currently 657k in the red, so this is a huge cash game for me |
