    <ul>[*]I watch the premier league onMatch of the Day but dismiss those players as been mainly out of reach due to cost.[*]I watch the championship teams play against us but I'm too busy watching our players to take notice of anyone else[*]The lower leagues don't even appear on my radar[/list]

    I always thought thatwasaverage for most football fans, so how come everyone on here seems to have such a wideknowledge of other players?.or are most just bullshitting parroters??</p>

    FM does help in a way

    managing other teams, looking at players, end up looking out for them, etc.

    saying that, it bores the **** out of me

    No idea. Definitely not at work, though. Honest.

    No mate. I haven't got a clue. I still think we should be after Tonton Zola Mokouko, Andri Sigtorsson and Allan Borgvardt, but that's 'cos I haven't played Championship Manager for years.

    I havent a clue either

    Nor do I know who we should sign for the same reasons that you give

    I've noticed a few players in games against us- but those that are any good arent that likely to sign for us - Kevin Philips or that guy Hull have on Loan from Man U spring to ming in that category.

    Only helps in knowing the players names

    no one inside football would seriously suggest using it as a means of identifying transfer targets.

    enough to realise that we have the worst strikers in the division by far!

    But then you only get to see them twice a season at most

    It's that enough time to make a judgement on a player?
    What would your judgement on KO have been if you had only seen him against Chelsea and Watford?

    When Keegan quit England and Taylor was in temporary charge we played a friendly against Italy with Taylor calling up a whole host of fringe players to take at look at as possible England players. The Italy staff were completely thrown not recognising many of the starting line-up, and one the Italy players got out his laptop and loaded up a game of Champ Man. so that the manager could look up the England players to see who they all were. True, if almost irrelevant story.
