I won the league at a canter and finished 20 points or so ahead of 2nd placed Sheff Wed, got over 100 goals and 100 points which was a pretty good achievement. Just started my championship season, I'm in the top 6 after 7 games with only 2 losses so far. Had to sell Lee Miller (for £1.3M to West Brom as he was unhappy) so I got Freddy Adu and Sam Parkin in with the money. As for a top striker, Miller, Brooker and Heff all played really well and got 20+ goals for me in league one so I stuck with them for the whole of last season. Now have Brooker and Parkin (3 goals in 2 starts so far) up front with Heff, Gillespie and Adu as back-up. Try to get Parkin in cheaply from Swindle if possible. I'm imagine there are some good strikers available on a bosman or on loan but I don't know of any. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm imagine there are some good strikers available on a bosman or on loan but I don't know of any. If he's available in your database size I cannot recommend "Humberto" enough. 20 years old and has scored 15 in 15 for me (including 2 in an amazing 4-1 win at Anfield in the League Cup) having picked him up for just £10k!

bcfc seattle Posted December 5, 2004 Report Share Posted December 5, 2004 I got promoted easy first season, was undefeated for 32 games (in league) and had clinched promotion in March. Had 7 players score 10+ goals. Led by Miller on 32 With Lita and Brooker having 20 each. Elvis Hammond (bought cheap from Fulham) had 15, murray, hawkins and Dani (whom I signed on a free but was a genuine pain in the butt and left in decemeber) also scored at least 10. 2nd season isn't going as well though, I think I probably should have brought in more new players. people i brought in Elvis, Dani, Winston Bogarde (who besides picking up more cards than Docs, is quite good and dirt cheap)Joe Murphy and some winger on loan.

The one on sale in the City shop is called something like Bristol City Club Manager 2005 and is apparently a very bad game - you probably didn't want to hear that !!! Get hold of Football Manager 2005 - it's only £17.99 from www.play.com and is the most addictive game ever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
