Football Manager Stories Podcast — Episode Three

Hey guys and welcome to our third Football Manager Stories Podcast. After the success of episodes 1&2 we are back to talk about some FM stories, real life football and answer your questions. This is still of course an ongoing feature for the community and all the FMS Podcast’s will be available in the tab near the top of this site, through I-Tunes and in each episode post, but we’ll go into more detail in a minute. Let me start by introducing episode three.

Hosts: Darren Smith and Jake Lenahan. 

Duration: 1 hour 6 minutes

Content: We’ll be introducing a few stories from around the FMS community, some in the forum and others from the main site,  then its time to talk Football as we discuss the Euro Championships including an in depth chat on the England v Italy game pre-match of course, then Darren will try to catch up in the quiz and we’ll answer some of your questions from episode two.

      We won’t be losing the Coldplay, I’m sure you can put up with a few seconds of that to listen to an hours worth of actual talk.

        I know mate, great talk especially the quiz. On a similar song note, I found a video on youtube of my 44 year old english teacher pole-dancing to fire by kasabian.

    Another good episode lad, have to say I did very well on the quiz :D I got Huntelaar within five seconds, it took Jake five minutes to say someone that is’nt even European! Have tosay calling pets after players is a bad omen in my family, my ncled had two dogs, Kamara and Koumas, they left the Baggies with a week of him getting the dogs!

    Great podcast yet again, brilliant listen ;). My question is: What process do you guys take when shortlisting teams to start a save with? :)

    Hi guys, love the podcast, I think these are a really great idea.

    I have two questions, one from real life and one based on the game. Firstly: what do you both think about Spain playing without a recognised striker in the Euros? Do you think this limits their options in behind the opposition defence, or do you think with the midfielders they have available that it is a good idea? Second question is: is there one player or wonderkid that you always look to sign when you start a new save on FM and if there is then why do you choose them?

    Cheers guys, keep up the great work!

    Another entertaining listen, thank you for answering my questions.
    Now that Jake brings it up, Johnson was completely at fault for the first Melberg goal. Never missed Kyler Walker so much…
    There we are! A couple of your questions were brutal! But somehow I knew the Huntalaar one, I don’t know how. But couldn’t you have submitted one answer to the «top asian club» question? I mean wasn’t Ana doing her Seoul story like 5 seconds ago?
    Enjoy your holiday.

      Thanks mate, we actually recorded the quiz before we did the stories section so I hadn’t had a good look through Ana’s story before I failed to answer the question…its just not a part of the game that interests me.

    Hi Guys
    Thanks for the mention in the podcast. New story is coming soon…

    Hey guys, nice episode, and funny btw.

    I’m happy you answered my question, and I have another one for both of you,
    Can AVB replace Redknapp, or will he make the same trouble like in Chelsea?
    (of course he did not sign for them yet, but probably will)

    • Darren Smith

      Thanks Ivo, we will consider your question but mentioning it may depend on what has happened nearer the time of the Podcast as we might well cover that area in the real life section.

    An entertaining listen. Sadly the prediction this time was wrong. England weren’t too bad in the first half, after that we were really poor. At least I now know where my penalty shoot-out curse comes from, as my success rate is on a par with England.

    The questions are getting really quite evil. That said, I did at least get two of the teams with a 4 star rating in the EPL.

      Yeah it was a sad night really, we were outplayed and what I mentioned in the Podcast about our technical level as a nation compared to the likes of Italy and Spain seemed to be right…I think we have some deep seeded problems in the way this country learns football that need to be addressed before the next generation are behind their time also.

    Another great episode of the fms podcast, i look forward to the next episode, i look forward to this more than anything :).
    I have very strong views on this but i would love to hear your thoughts on this. In my opinion Andrea Pirlo is on par with xavi and has never got the recognition in his career for his brilliance, do you guys agree and why ?

    My question is, with the details of FM13 sure to be coming soon, what do you want different in the new version of the game? :)

    Please discuss team meetings! My team always has worse morale and confidence after my meetings.

    I want to start an «unemployment challenge» by starting in the USA. Is there any way upload some of the lower leagues in the USA? I’m thinking of something like MLS/NASL/USL Pro.

    I haven’t bought the game yet, so I’m not sure exactly what leagues are available.
