that's a good buy.

i got a full DVD version of 2012 last year for nothing off ebay, actually made $10 profit - he stuffed me around with postage, so ended up sending me a free copy and $10 cash!

havn't bothered with 2013 yet, might give this one a miss and get 2014 next year. they don't change a hell of a lot each year, and i can always download a transfer update for 2012.

LoL - that is my next step to be honest! I've got a few really cool apps that would work well on the sidelines... might need to waterproof it first!

Got first internal kick around tonight... looking forward to it! Lot of commitment but gotta get to the A-League somehow!

If you want a cheap ipad go to the Good Guys and bargain them down with cash... can get up to 80 bucks off... i did... otherwise i can get them for around 40-50 bucks off RRP from work...

Glad I finally checked the Tech Forum.
Been playing FM since Champ Manager 69/97. Has anyone played the latest FIFA manager? I had the first FIFA manager (96/97 season), every game I started with Liverpool, John Barnes would be out for 2-4weeks with an allergic reaction to hair bleach... funniest "injury" I've ever seen in a game.

Does anyone have free version of the FMRTE for FM12 compatible with DVD (retail) version?
