      Dugg actually would be the proper term. Paste participle FTW!

      And for the record, I couldn't find it, (so I submitted it anyway)

        I'm pretty surprised as well! It makes sense in a way...but ya, definitely a landmark in gaming.

          Haha, I remember a couple of years ago there was a British TV program called Dream Team who signed a player based on his stats from Football Manager.



          Oh, and Everton Football Club don't play soccer. Soccer is a sport played by teenage American girls.

    'Donnely' commented on soccer/football thing as well in my linked story.

    As a North American I just can't think of any defense for the whole name of 'football.' I never understood how North American football was named football -- I know 'handball' was probably already taken at the time, but maybe they should have called North American football 'soccer' and left football football everywhere.

    (Yeah I'm a bit confused as well.)

    Football Manager games are great by the way.

    That is one series that I try to stay away from because I know I'd play it WAY too much But with the new 3d match engine... I might have to jump back in.

      You obviously haven't seen the new 3D match engine.

        Are you saying it's not so hot? I thought it looked really good. (Like for a managing game of course, not for a sports action game.)

          It's clunky. Not nearly as good as it's 2D equivalent.

    Oh, that's a shame to hear Ameer.

    I did hear though you can use the 2D engine if you want, its still in the game as an option, so that's cool I guess. Maybe I'll wait for next year's edition of the game though, if the 3d engine needs a bit of work.

      Yeah, I use the 2D by default. Still good.

    Some computers don't actually work with FM09. This is a big shame for some FM Followers.
