Think it's more geek than sport, and dunno if anyone's interested, but...

6 month fully playable demo, can transfer the saves to the full game when that's released on the 30th.
I'm up to 2030 on my FM09 game

Make sure you save it as .exe at the end, mine download as just the filename for some reason, just needed to add .exe after it to get it to run

First impressions are that I like the new layout, looks alot more pleasing on the eye.

Is more pleasing, but i'm struggling to find things, with the full game you'll be able to change the skin, i'll go back to my green skin, also, can't set assistant to take control of friendlies or I can't find it, i've got 10 or so friendlies!
Bought Zaaboub and an Argie (called Mazzina) and a Serbian (Senicanin) on free's for Crewe.
Just beaten Glenn Hoddles Academy!

Look at a AMRL for Wycombe, called Zebroski or something. I want him but have £0

Im liking it so far, like you've said the lay out makes the game much more accessible. Started as cardiff, no transfer money but managed to loan plessis and pachedo from liverpool and bostock from spurs. I like the way the clubs tell you how much you need to offer them wage wise for loans!
Any one notice that the same seems alot quicker then fm09? Unless thats because its just a demo?

It's lightning fast! Can rattle through a few games in no time at all.

Yeah, i'd imagine it's because it'll be the smallest database, and if you look on the preferences you can change certain things to make it quicker or slower.
I assume everyone does it properly and does text only on fast, none of that 3d guff.
I lost the first couple of games (against fucking grimsby of all teams...), so quit  Was half asleep and not giving my full attention so i'll have another go in a bit.

Good man!
I like the analysis bit at the end of the games, with shots on/off target etc... none of my strikers could hit the target.
Also gonna take a while to get used to the positioning etc... on the tactics, but again, hopefully will be able to change back to my old skin in the full version. Also, I set it to call me Adam instead of Walford, looks awful... "Adam announces new signing" not right.
Not sure if "Offer to clubs" was on there either, that was the best bit about 09, could make millions on players doing that!

Yeah Clear Cut Chances is a nice touch. Press conferences are even more annoying though, far too many random questions. And if you dont answer they ask you again
I haven't found a way to make players run in certain directions yet? Or is that now done by setting the player as 'attacking' with the right mouse button?

I think it's that, yeah, can't just drag like you used to be able to.
I set my creative striker to teraquista or whathever the hell that was, he did all right there.
Attack, Defend, Support etc... could use the FM Help thing to take a look I suppose, but that'd be giving in

Mine doesn't work. I've downloaded it and when I click the icon it does nothing. Click again and it says it's already running.

Has it installed?
I had to rename mine, put the .exe on the end? If it's already installed, then I dunno, there's an FAQ bit on the site I posted, try that?
