If you order from shopto.net - you could get it tomrrow or thursday at the latest.
- Gameplay.com will be friday
- Play \ Amazon \ Game could be friday or saturday
Or go to a shop and get it but it might not be as cheap etc..
I emailed shopto.net and they have lots on stock - so I have just placed my order and should have it either tomorrow, meaning I will collect it on thursday morning when I head to work at 7am. Will spend the day at work playing it on my work laptop lol :D
Its £19.99 or if its your first order its £16.99 << BARGAIN
£16.99,thats amazing!!!

Look at the top... you get £3 off your first game (Any Game), so just signup with them and when you add it to your basket and go to checkout £3 will be taken off the final price.
If you order after 5:30 then should come thursday, however could come friday depending on stock. Order before 5:30 if you can... if not them im sure all will still be good.
I have PES6 order from gameplay.com for £40.98, however shopto.net have it for £36.99 and normally get the game to you a few days early, meaning I can do the same as I am with FM2007 and just collect it at 7am on my way to work, so need to change that order.

I hope it does come thu coz im usually in till i go out at night,about 9ish.Cant wait now!! How sad lol
Haha its all good way... either way you will defo get it by friday and at a good price...
Just send them a message on the contact us page, asking if they can guarentee delivery by friday and see what he comes back with - I know alot of people are ordering from him but I really cant see it being a problem.
I've used them before and delivery was the next day - however I wasnt in so collected it the next morning from the Royal mail. Most Pre-Orders come on the wednesday before also which is amazing :D
I will do,looking forward to gettin it.i fancy a season with juventus,strating the season with -10 or so points and having to get back into serie a.Could be challenging but good fun!

Ive just cancelled my gameplay.com order for PES6 for £40.98 and moved it to shopto.net for £36.99 - should have stayed with them in the first place.

Just installing it on home PC now :|
Remote control of PC's is great :P
Shopto.net is being gay for me, says I already have an account which I dont, never even heard of them before Daz mentioned it. Might get it from gameplay instead.

They are really busy at the moment, as everyone is going mad to order Splinter Cell and FM2007. Leave it for a bit and order a bit later - as long as you order today then you should get it tomorrow.
You could always ring and tell them the problem, their CS is very good and can normally help you out over the phone ;)
Fook it takes forever to install :(
Fook it takes forever to install :(
Always does mate... but its well worth it ;)
OK that's 22 minutes so far :\
OK that's 22 minutes so far :\
Shouldnt take that long... something gone wrong??
People on other sites are saying 10mins to install, 15 at the very most.
33 Minutes later it's done :|
There's a lot and I mean a lot of small graphic files hence the long data transfer file overhead ;)
Gotta admit when you go to the detail it has then that's no surprise. two images of every player and that's for a hell of a lot of teams from around the globe, never mind just england. Championship down to conference north/south levels and all players in there. I'm impressed so far and I aint even run it yet :o
mine was posted by play today so knowing the time it takes for them tocome through roayal mail it should be here friday morning, unless we get a shift on and actually deliver them tomorrow :lol:

I am indeed mate... mid next week is when I am thinking :D

Agreed... we willl get people to join. If we got 20 people managing one of every prem team that would be cool - even if you didnt support them it would still be a laugh.
We will have to have a think about the best way to set it up ;)
i would go pretty much any english team besause i dont support any really! Rangers all the way....even know they are struggling right now :cry:

The premiership idea sounds good :doublethumbs:
Okay add names then.
1. Noonster -- Man Utd
2. EVB -- Aston Villa
Copy this and add your name and team... the more the merrier - if you really want to play but dont want a prem team then thats cool... however if we have 20 prem teams managed that would be ace.
Being the clever guy that I am I forgot to put a note on the door to ask the postman to sign it and post it :(
Sooo I rang the local Royal Mail, gave some sob story to the women that I needed that package posted through my door as it contains inportant work documents on a cd that I have to work on tonight :D
She said she would tell the postman to sign and post it - so heres keeping our fingers crossed.
Cant believe I forgot the note.

Hopefully mine should be home.
Some info for you all when installing ensure you select DON'T install demos as this will speed up the install time considerably. The demos are of SI Games two other games anyways and not needed to play FM 2007 ;)
i selected the standard install and only took 5mins to install it roughly on my vaio
oh and there are no prem players pics only pics for players in the championship and lower

Why didnt you go custom :dontknow: - Its the only way forward :P
How you finding the game??

EDIT: there is no custom install daz, just standard or no demos
TJ - Cheers for the info ;)

Those shopto buggers have put it up in price to £24.99 :(
Still a good price ;)
They probably put it up because on tuesday hundreds of people canceled there order from other companies and ordered through shopto.net as they had them in stock. They have probably realised they could charge a few £££'s more.
I would still use them mate :thumbs:

Do this before you start a game!!!

wish you'd told me that daz
Oh well you know now ;)
Now Ive had a torrid time of late, 15th :lol: Some serious injuries which I can use as my excuse: Barry/Angel/Sorenson/Delaney/Ridgewell/Berger all at the same time :x
Im doing sh*t as Hull... 15 games in and sitting at rock bottom :lol:
- This is alot harder than last year!!
it is alot harder, am in relegation zone with col utd in 2nd season. No1 wants to come on loan to me :lol: cant buy anyone as only got 8k transfer budget :lol:
Whens the network game going on then Dazzla.
Im not doing bad 5th after 8 games
Im not doing bad 5th after 8 games

4th now 15 games gone
2nd round champs league, 1/4 league cup 3rd fa cup :P
Playing as Arsenal isnt exactly a challenge though is it ;)
Trying doing what me and TJ are doing then come back to us!
I'm sitting in 17th spot with West Ham at the mo after 24 games. Swear this game is harder than last years
Wasn't helped by serious injuries to Reo-Coker, Ashton, Bowyer and Harewood plus a consortium bid for the club which blocked me from making any moves in the transfer market so couldn't sign anyone :( and Tevez has played S*** all season lol
Got the big guns back from injury now so need to raise my game
Yeah its defo harder than last year mate... but Im guessing in a way thats a good thing as it will keep you playing to try and improve etc...
I just cant seem to find a formation worth keeping that will win me games - hence being second from bottom lol. - Can see me managing Hull in league one next season.. :(

In the previous games when i got a team relegated, i got the sack :lol:
Might be getting the sack with West Ham now because the new chairman wants the Spain manager in charge :x
Portsmouth have just signed Gera from West Brom for £11.25m in my game :|

I cant find a consistent formation either!!
And check your team talk feedback from your assistant after the game in your squad screen, and you'll notice how many player dont listen to it :lol::lol:
and you think finding a formation is any easier with a top team, well it isnt
just cus Im better at it then you guys
Well 2nd season after 17 games Im 3rd, almost beat last seasons total points already.
Signed Mathieu Flamini and Matt Etherington.
and you think finding a formation is any easier with a top team, well it isnt
just cus Im better at it then you guys
Yeah thats it :roll:
Anyone can take the top 3/4 teams in the country and win the league - even with the standard tactic... this has been proven for years. Come back and talk to us when you take a team from the campionship (or lower) that isnt that good and get them promoted!!

My board aint too happy :lol:
how do you moan about the ref
Wait until theres controversy in the game and itll be a news story.
yep then just click the comment, sometimes you will get no response from the FA.
Anyhooo served my one game ban, you cant do team talks or subs but i won :lol: 3-0 against top half side so might do that again :lol: :lol:
sounds like your better in the stands :lol:
:lol: performances have improved lately, clearing the bottom sidesnow and clear of relegation by 11points

dreamer. get darryl duffy up front if you want goals
Nah your ok... I have enough quality up front, however for some reason I cant get everyone playing too well together. Its finding the right tactic that offers good ballence that I am having a problem with.
i'm currently working on a man utd game, as my 1st col utd game i quit as chairman decided wanted to make the big decisions on whether to sell players.
1st season won the champions league, now in 2nd season and currently still in CL and top of league after 20 odd games.

Man Utd - Pah wheres the challenge...
you should have stuck with Col mate... it makes you want to keep playing more and more to improve the team - your already the best so theres not much to do.
im sunderland n im battling on, ive got about 9 strikers but my tactics are letting me down, im just in my second season n im in the prem sitting comfortably above the drop zone

excellent. life may now continue
Im in Season 6 with Hull now... slowly climbing further up the table each season.
Fingers crossed this can be the year :D
doing better than parkinson then :lol:
i've just started a westham game said was gonna be them in the online game we havent started :lol: so thought would give them a go.
my times nearly up as sunderland manager :( bottom of the prem n the fans are moaning because i keep playing 4-4-2!! :x
they will moan but let them, the key to this game if you start losing games is to stick with the formation u like consistency is the key
well i changed to 4-5-1 but they were shocking. giving 4-3-3 a go at the moment
i find the 4-4-2 diamond works a treat if setup properly
what about all the team instructions n everything?
i'll try to find the file on my comp then send it to u but gimme bit of time to do it :lol: cos busy playing it
:doublethumbs: it would be a tradgedy for sunderland to get relegated
Couldnt b bothered hunting for it so just loaded it for screen shot.
tak no notice of where the players are positions are all wrong its the team instructions u wanna look at.
4-4-2 Diamond wide (http://images14.fotki.com/v362/fileKG7l/f51a2/5/554709/4247952/tactics2.jpg)
Now for player instructions here they are
Defensive Midfield (http://images20.fotki.com/v368/filezo02/f51a2/5/554709/4247952/dmcinstruction.jpg)
Wingers (http://images17.fotki.com/v13/filedfKQ/f51a2/5/554709/4247952/wingers.jpg)
Attacking Midfield (http://images18.fotki.com/v16/fileXf0n/f51a2/5/554709/4247952/amc.jpg)
Hope that helps u out obviously it might not work as the better players you have the better they will play the tactic u ask.
cheers pal :thumbs: i wana go home now n play on it :( :x am stuck at work n ive got go watch port vale play gillingham tonight :x :x
obviously u can fiddle with it to fine tune it for certain matches if u like but i stick with that for all games with man utd
i got quite a few quite decent strickers but none of them are scoring with my style of football apart from Helguson
that formation should help them mate.
bought FM07 for psp yesterday for those moments ya cant b bothered to get ya laptop :lol: or if out in car and bored at a show etc.
Started a col utd game and looked for a DMC found aliou cisse on a free transfer and got him!!!
mines going downhill, tried loads of different formations but it isnt happening :x
are u losing by alot of goals or just 1 or 2?
alot :( didnt use to but i keep getting a kicking now, solskjaer keeps scoring for me tho!
tighten up the back and midfiled, play defence counter attacking stuff even at home.
just wish it was real lol so i can bollock my defence for being sh1t!
thats what the team talk function is for u doughnut
