New 4-2-3-1 tactics I created

Posted: 25 Jul 2013 08:25 PM PDT

Hi guys, Here I have already started to play the 8th season in Nottingham Forest story and would like to present my new FM 2013 tactics. It's created for replacement of counter-attacking narrow 4-1-2-1-2 which is not so usable because Forest turned into a real force which I believe doesn't need to play defensive football with keen sudden attacking moves. I have already started season 8 and

Shadowy hope before the last fixture

Posted: 16 Jul 2013 09:41 PM PDT

Hello my dear readers, I am about to finish the 7th season being just in one fixture till the end. Suddenly I have received a slight hope to win Premier League. However, Manchester United must loose at the Old Trafford to let that happen. Which is unlikely as you understand… In total I have to confess things are not so bad as I was reporting in one of the previous posts. I was a bit disheartened

Hi all, Short post today which is dedicated to unexpected news from Nottingham Forest story! I decided to sell Ademilson during the last week of winter transfer window.

Look at that hell of three draws in a row:   Total misfortune Everything was very good in the middle of December. My Forest was in 4 points from leading Manchester United and it was really OK for me. But then those damned three draws happened… It's kind of curse for

Season 7. Little braking at the start

Posted: 30 Jun 2013 09:58 PM PDT

Hi everybody, So it's a new season, new hopes. This time I have a serious restriction because it's expected Nottm Forest finally should win Premier League according to the story targets claimed in October, 2012. Following the starting matches I see it will be a dramatic season. Almost all Premier League clubs including my Nottm Forest began to loose points from the very start… Though today I'd
