So, the save has dramatically shifted from Millwall and Inter smashing everyone, to Millwall newly promoted to the PL and Barnet who are still in D3... This exciting new tactic is the choice, despite perhaps it favouring top teams? let's go

My quest to achieve success with a 'flat' 4-4-2 continues and I must say having the next Brazilian superstar does help. The midfield is all about the arrows, really. On a different save it could be that different combos work. The game perhaps 'likes' central MC pushing up 1 with 2 strikers.

new platform, old challenge. wanted to see if my Kettering tactic works in a different save. probably ends up feeling like a torture.

Fulham travel across London and we edge them out... and my word look at this table... Oldham now are favourites???

Well, this is really something. For years I've tried to make a 4-4-2. Years. And this seems to be doing it. Yes, we have a young Cahill who is excelling, but *zero* outfield signings, poor keepers and over reliance on Wilko to get goals. But we're up there, fighting... Last few games!

👀👀

The WC final. Spain. Not Ger or Bra or Fra. Again, lucky. Shearer suspended! Gazza doesn't recover from the knock, a little tragedy for him you feel. Scholes goes no.8, Batty's steel comes in. Andy Cole gets the chance of a lifetime.. up front with a man he hates! A historic win!! Brilliant.

The SF. Argentina. Huge. Their full array on show.. apart from Batistuta. We've had some luck there. Check out Carlos McCallister on the bench. A great game. Keepers showing their quality. It goes to ET again... Gazza limps off. Ince on.... Sheringhaaaaaam! Eng golden goal again! Into the final

This is why we play

and the second leg is wrapped up nicely. Kettering vs. Real Madrid in the CL final. what's there not to like about this.

Ex #CM0102 "star" sentenced to two decades in jail! www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Kettering fans are chanting "La La La La" and Benfica are lucky. Benfica squad is stacked though - Bergkamp regen Starke is playing out of his mind. In addition to Pires, Van Bronckhorst, Deco, Rosicky, and Tamudo, they have an amped up X. Alonso, who somehow managed at 8+ avg from MC position

Magic the Kettering continues. We're chasing back to back PL titles. Our tactic has been the same since Div1 I think and it still works like a charm. Batigol regen Gonzalo La (aka. GoLaZo) joined us from relegated Lazio and he's having a career year.

We are sad ☹️

So, update on Prem season 2. Opening day defeat to newly promoted Forest, so switched tactic and record now stands at W12 D2 L0. Everything seems to click in this new formation.

There's something about this game where a central striker in a defensive tactic becomes clinical. Hirst has been off form. Not good. But when I go (even more) defensive he becomes lethal

@cm9798muck.bsky.social you'll love this one. Look at the grime on this win. Versus Palace's UD too. I like a support man with heading. That's what happened, Davies flicked on, Asprilla, new signing, slots his first. 0-1.

But ofc Barnsley do it to us - Lars Leese POTM

Something #vaporwave (ish) that I've not released yet... Good thing 2025 cometh. 🕶🌴 #wip #vaporwaves #vaporwaveaesthetic #vaporwaveaesthetics #chilled #chillsynth #synthwave #synthwaveart #vaporwaveart

So it's all down to this on the final day. 86th minute equaliser does it for us and we secure 5th in our first season.

I'm back from my latest sickbed with joy from Turkey! ⚽️⚽️⚽️ A League and cup double for Ankaragucu. Panel beaters until Christmas became world beaters after with 21 games unbeaten. Plenty of Turks playing 25+ games, Kennedy average, Szmuc a sensation. Great challenge once again!

Holy shit! 👀 Is this on of the greatest achievements on the game, ever? The team doesn't look overloaded, miniature stadium with 6k attendance for title decider...I mean...it's Kettering ffs! 😂 You've really raised the bar with this one pal...

i know we're just dreaming but dreaming is fun. can we recover those 5 points in 8 games and do the unthinkable? last game of the season happens to be at home against Boro! how amazing would it be to get to that game within a shot of the title!

PL here we come. I am pretty sure in real life our stadium would not qualify for PL. My fave player this year was Donnelly at DC, who we signed from Cheltenham for a neat 1m. Bankroll up to 94mil now, following more player sales, bringing this season's intake to 57mil.

🦅

couple more transfers out and our welsh gk gets his first cap and moves out for 13.5 mil. we signed Borghetto (i think Baggio regen), and a strongly recommended 27 yo norwegian MC on our way to Div1. I suspect a slow start as usually happens with new signings, but let's see how it shapes up.

Job done! Double winner, quite comfortably in the LOI in the end + the FAI Cup! Were miles clear with 10 to go, slacked off towards the end, annoyingly 1pt short of last year's pts total. Highlight: a heroic draw v Newcastle in Europe, although no chance in the 2nd leg. #bohs #cm0102 #retrogaming

Oh ffs! 😂

When you're 18th in the league and apply for the managerial vacancy at the team in 4th

Managed to create a *brilliant* tactic. With one huge Shakespearean flaw. Everyone falls to pieces in front of goal. How strange. I am the home team in each.

Rooney playing journeyman save irl

Ignore the players, this was last seasons tactic. I've now managed to get Terry, so will probably go to a back 4. Bringing the fullbacks into play was from one of your old tactics I think. Worked absolute wonders for me in a Serie B save with Bologna.

Oooof welcome to the Premier League

We did it. On to the Prem!

Justo arrancamos con la cuenta de BlueSky el día en el que se cumplen 29 años del debut oficial de la selección. Hace 4 años escribí esta nota rememorando los comienzos de Bosnia-Herzegovina en el fútbol, ya como país independiente. ✍️¡Acá dejo el link! futboldebosnia.blogspot.com/2020/08/el-p...

Hey CM9798 guys. Does anyone have the ISO file for this beauty? I don’t have a CD drive so I cannot rip the ISO myself. I fancied loading up to take a look 😀 Thank you.

I do love a good transfer deadline day. Man utd £4m in the red, so everyone up for sale, managed to get Helveg cheap. Pizarro was a big surprise. He was unstoppable in a Leicester save, after offloading Trundle, be good to see how he does.

oh yeah! we're cruising. Stan Muscat doing well, although not dominating to the extent I had imagined. other big difference maker was the addition of Algerian Dahmani at AMC. Otherwise keeping 6 core players from our Div3 run in the starting 11.

When I'm testing a new tactic, as i do frequently, I consider red cards, own goals and injuries received all as negative marks, a way of the CPU punishing something... not as bad 'luck' #cm9798v2

Finally made it to the summit. Sheffield Wed smashing it with a certain big Dunc.

Not sure I need to, but just for you...

Use a gif to show us where you’re from

Anthony Pulis!

it's year 2005, Kettering have just been promoted to Div2. I had a good feeling that Stan "the Man of the Match" Muscat will be menace this year. Attributes? who needs them.

Was a fun track to remix. Thanks @bendinggrid.com and The Safety Word for the chance. 😎🎹🙏💜

What a summer this was…

NEW from @matt-c-wills.bsky.social: Leeds’ African contingent are having a good season but it would be great to reach the Champions League places. There’s also a cup run brewing… cm9798.co.uk/2024/11/28/n...

stars of the season: naylor at AMC, Leonard (those attributes!) at AML, Hendon at DC. Most of the squad is very young and seemed like first year regens, so I expect their CA to jump by 20-30 points at least, should be good enough to stick around in Div2.
