Championship Manager 03/04 - With Brighton

[Scandinavianseagulls25]

Write your sucsess with brighton in CM03/04..

Okay, I took over the team in 2003/2004...... I did reach 5:th place but lost in the playoffs...

the second season I won div2... I had bought Mike Duff (DR) and Ijah Anderson (DL) and Rami Shaabann (GK) från Arsenal.

The third season I got falmer, 15000 in capacity,
I won division 1.......

this was my lineup.....

Mchphee - Leon - Hart

Harding - Wilkinson - Lee

Anderson - Cullip - Hinshelwood - Duff

Shaaban.....
--------------
With this lineup you will easy get to the PL.... David Lee was very good......

in the 4 season, Now I was in the PL... the board expended the stadium to 20000.. I bough Issac Osborune and Bojan Djordic, both VERY GOOD!


in the 5 season I expanded the stadium with 850 more seats....
I bought, BOBBY ZAMORA! Cherno Samba, Michael Stewart, Carloton Cole, Pascal Cygan...

in the 6 season the people in brighton said no to expand the stadium

in the 7 season I was 2:nd around X-mas... then Cherno Samba got injured and i lost maybe 10-15 games in a row and got fired

I took over WImebledon instead :/


Zamora - Samba - Knight

Own player - Osbourne - Djordic

Ijah Anderson - Huth - Geremi - Duff
Shaaban...

that was my lineup.... I must say that Brighton got some really good players in CM03/04

Wilkinson, Harding....Pitcher... Quality midfielders..
Hart, Mchphee, Knight... really good strikers.....

Cullip and Hinsh are good fullbacks,

but, we need a new goalie and a new right defender and left defender...

[Soton Seagull]

I have played about 20 matches, have only signed Kinkladze, and currently have the fans complaining that I am playing Dan Harding!

It's not going very well. Apart from up to date teams, and other teams enquiring about your players a bit more, I haven't really noticed he diff from CM4. V.disappointed at present.

 

[Turkey]

It's much better than CM4!

 

[Soton Seagull]

It's much better than CM4!

I'm sure it is, I just can't see where. I know ther is a new training screen, but I get the assistant manager to do that as I can't be arsed.

Have I missed any really good new stuff, other than every club trying to buy Jake Robinson off me?

 

[Dunkstar]

Don't you notice how it's a lot smoother+no glitches?

 

[Dez]

Champ 4 was a nightmare - 03/04 is easily the best by a country mile.

 

[Soton Seagull]

I downloaded a patch for it last night. No Brighton screen shots though!

 

[graz126]

me now
me at christmas if my wishes come true
hopefully i will get it then.
may have to buy it 4 me as pressie from my son.

 

[Raphael Meade]

top of div 2 in march of my first season. jake's won young player of the month two months in a row now...

 

[Happy Seagull]

Without sounding too stoopid, is this a complete new game or just an upgrade that you need the original CM4 in order to play?

 

[Turkey]

It's the same platform - CM4. However it is a new game. It's much improved. Has a superb, solid feel.

SI will be releasing an official BHA Skin because we allowed them to use our pictures. They've allready released the Hull & York skins.

 

[Donny Osmond]

First season finished 8th with the Albion after a poor start.
Second season 4th after 32 games (with 2 in hand due to fa cup/Ldv trophy runs)
Building a quality team (below with averages)
Roberts 7.30
Hinsh Leigertwood De Cesare(sp) Darlington
7.24 7.50 7.10(chelsea) 8.00


Lee Appleton Omar Daley Richie Partridge
7.95 7.40 8.75 8.25


Bellion(loan) Petrescu
7.45 7.60


Beat Newcastle and Everton away from home in the Fa cup but got knocked out by coventry. In Ldv Southern final

 

[Exiled in Exeter]

I never brought CM4 so I am testing out the new game with Exeter.

But alarmingly in the first season the Albion finished a miserable 16th and McGhee got sacked! On a vaguely related issue Reading finished bottom of Division 1, Coppell got sacked before Easter and ahs taken over at Notts County!

 

[Exiled in Exeter]

Omar Daley and Richie Partridge

Both are doing really well on my game too. Omar went on loan at Derby and Partridge also played very well for a first Division club.

Hasselbaink went on loan at Sunderland and hit 12 goals in 9 games and got an average rating of 8.56.

 

[DTES]

SI will be releasing an official BHA Skin because we allowed them to use our pictures. They've allready released the Hull & York skins.

Does the new one have a "picture editor" program like the old versions used to, so you can put in your own photos you've taken at games/downloaded? I did that on CM 01/02, and ended up with loads of extra ones, much better than the ones that came with the game.

 

[itszamora]

I've only got the demo on my mac . Still, I thumped WBA 5-0 in the 'battle of the Albions', Harty volleying one in from 50 yards! :dance:

with all the excitement with BHA and Euro just around the corner and seeing the Football Manager screenshots, i've just re-installed 03-04 and will start a new season with the stripes tomorrow
