I believe that a lot of managers play this game like chess, and that is eventually their downfall. There is a random() function built into the game which gives it a sense of reality.

A weaker team will without any rhyme or reason bet a stronger team every now and than, I have posted again and again of real teams getting TROLLED in the F.A. cup. But this reality injection into the T11 engine seems to make certain managers crazy, it does that to me, but I believe this gives the game flavor and it maybe the best part of the game.

My advice to these managers is....

DEAL WITH IT.
