[Dylan]

I'm just about to start my 30 season challenge with Celtic,my first time to ever try get to 30 the most i ever done was 10 with barca in first FMH hopefully I won't get bored

I will post my team after the Summer window,so if anyway wants to try please post team and your season results

So.....now I'm on 3september(1st season) and players in are(9-20m)-chris maguire-800k from Aberdeen

Adam Rooney-1.5m from Inverness CT

Bob mchugh-1.5m from motherwell

Keiran Westwood-2.4m from Coventry

Robert pires-free transfer

Kasper schimichael-4.4m from Leeds

So far I have qualified for the champions league and I am top of league 3 wins out of 3.

The formation I am using is. 2-2-3-3(the wall 2011)

I haven't used sugar daddy the only cheat I used was the one that when I club offers 0euro for a player I just negotiated to what the player is worth if u no what I mean it's cheating but not like other people if they were to sell all the players for 69m each because its nearly impossible to sell players u don't want from Celtic

So I will post again either at end of season or after janurary window of I buy/sell players.please join in and post

[Scott]

Whats the point of starting with a team to replace half the starting 11 in the first transfer window :wacko:

[Dylan]

Whats the point of starting with a team to replace half the stating 11 in the first transfer window :wacko:

Well because in the formation I'm using doesn't require certain positions(DL/DR) and there's a good few and if you buy the right players to use with this formation u will practically go unbeaten for ages

And I didn't repalace half the team I bought about 5 Strickers because the Celtic strikers u start off with are s*** and I bought 2 goalies and the rest are backups

Hooper is a class act

[Eoin]

Hooper is a class act

Yeah, he's deadly...

Why would you bother cheating? It's not a challenge if you cheat.

[Jayze]

I suppose it's his career so let him do what he wants

[SpencerNCFC]

Richard has a point tho... He should just sell them normally.

[Dylan]

Yeah, he's deadly...

Why would you bother cheating? It's not a challenge if you cheat.

I only cheated to get what there valued at because like I said earlier it's hard to sell the players don't want in celtic

[Jayze]

But mate Hamilton speniding 2.6M ? Also if you were say Barca you wouldnt sell Messi unless a bid of exactly 37M came in

[Ali]

Celtic have a decent side, more than decent and that's coming from a Rangers fan. Izaguirre(sp) is one of the best LBs in the SPL. Don't know why you'd sell him. I find it strange what you about selling, I've sold loads of bad players before.

I sold him because the formation I'm using is 2233 which doesnt require LB or RB and for the cheat I'm only doing it for first season to get a few players in like goalies

Just finished my first season here is team performance

[Dec]

You sold players to fit a formation when the formation should fit the team as you wouldn't needed to spend as much and could have brought better players to enhance your squad.

And you said Celtics strikers were rubbish ^_^

[Jayze]

U did :unsure:

[payrecnides]

Man that would take most of my time if I did that...just for the sake of formation.

[Dylan]

U did :unsure:

I strikers are good hooper stokes obviously commons isn't here but the likes of Rasmussen everytime I recall him because he is good but he gets injured for about 6months and samaras is sometimes good sometimes he never scores.

Does anyone no how I get Darren o dea on the Celtic team

Man that would take most of my time if I did that...just for the sake of formation.

Well what's the point of keeping a LB or a RB if there not going to be played

Has anyone started this Challenge or even this tactic yet

[samhardy]

Didnt even know it was a challenge :unsure:

Just thought it was your career

[Dylan]

Well it's a challenge for me coz I never last long in one save.....and I did say if u waned to join in u could to compare. Is 30 seasons the most I can do

[samhardy]

Yup 30 seasons is the maximum

[Dylan]

Okay....I was just lookin at Celtic on wiki and there first manager willie maley was manager for 43 years at Celtic...MAD or what I thought ferguson was good.......what happens at the end
