May as well start a new thread.

Who's got it? Who's getting it? Who is going to unearth a gem and put it in this thread so we can all sign him?

I want it. However, I don't get paid until the end of the month so if I go buy it now I'm gonna be short of funds for the next 2 weeks.

If you're referring to the SoftAnchor setup after you've installed it via STEAM, your code isn't wrong. SI's servers have gone down, so no-one can activate their copy of the game and play Football Manager! I'm terribly miffed. It's a god damn shambles, and all this STEAM rubbish is absolutely pointless, and has only further gone to create problems.

Got it installed, took a while to get the code to register.

Quite impressed so far. Just need to get on with some scouting, and decide who to play as.

Just Downloading that Patch (yes there's one already) because as usual its full of bugs.
