Championship Manager 4 To gets lot of money: --------------------- Submitted by: Shane Take over a team that has money and players would like to go to (I usually take Manchester United). Make a bid for any useless player you would like to get rid of for 50 million but the trick is to put the transfer to take place at the end of the season. Also in your players transfer status place him on the transfer list and say that he is not needed. Once you accept the bid place the other teams manager on holiday and after a couple of days u will get news that the player is going to be signed by Man Utd. I did this and got rid of all my youth team players and at the end of the season I had a 100 billion pounds in transfer fees. Alot of people have not noticed this but another great player to have in your team is Kaka from Santos. Play the game until season 2004/5: ---------------------------------- Submitted by: Paul Raeburn Then do a player search for players whose contracts have expired. It is more than likely that many players you have shortlisted, or other quality players are available for free transfers. I have signed Capucho, Luis Enrique, Rivaldo and Frank de Boer for free. Also, because they aren't being paid, they will more than likely accept any contact you offer them! Get any player who wants to come: --------------------------------- Submitted by: Nick Offer a bid for 50million for a player and after they accept and you offer a contract click on the players name and click on withdraw bid. Then you offer 0 and when you have offered click the Back button then you offer the contract. When you have offered the contract wait for the player to accept then you press yes when you want to sign him then the next day you have signed him for free! Buy any player for free: ------------------------ Submitted by: HaRRy "The Doctor" Wibisono E-mail:hary_sinchan@yahoo.com 1) First, you have to get his club to accept your bid. 2) To achieve this, either make a very high bid (many times his market value) that the club cannot reject ; alternatively, you could make an enquiry and accept the club's demands in return. 3) When his club allows you to negotiate his contract, click to offer him a contract. 4) While in the contract screen, click news on the left toolbar option (Do not click the back arrow). Click on that player's name and withdraw your bid. 5) Re-bid for free or whatever amount you wish. 6) Click the back arrow on the left toolbar this time back to the screen where you are discussing his contract details. 7) Offer him a reasonable contract. 8) When he accepts your contract, he joins your club on a free transfer (or any amount that you re-bid for). Increase your wage structure without the approval of your board. This trick allows you to offer a much higher pay for a particular staff without requesting from your board. For instance, to comply with a scout/coach's request which is higher than your board's maximum wage structure for scout/coach position. This trick works mainly for scouts and coaches as their wage structure is usually lower than assistant managers. For a scout or coach, 1) Click 'Approach to sign'. 2) Change his default position from scout/coach to Assistant Manager. 3) Reduce the wage you are offering to zero. 4) Click offer contract. 5) A few days later, there will be news that he has rejected your offer. 6) Click 'Approach to sign' again. 7) You will find his default position has been changed to Assistant Manager with a simultaneous significant increase in the wage allowed to offer him. 8) Click the maximum or whatever he requested and offer him a scout/coach posistion. Please note that this trick allows you to increase your wage structure to sign most scouts or coaches but it is is dependent on your club's wage structure for an Assistant Manager. Take control of National Teams 1) Choose Add Manager. 2) In the team option, choose 'Choose from the list'. 3) Click on any team. 4) Click on an English player in the team. 5) Click on England in the player's profile. 6) Click on 'Take control'. 7) You will then be appointed as the National Team's manager without the need to earn it. 8) The same trick can be done for any league and any country. Hint: ----- Submitted by: Elias-Lebanon This is not a real cheat but its a lil about the best player sin this game. In Argentina u can buy Riquelme hes a gr8 midfielder (u can also find some gr8 players like Ortega, Costanzo, Cambiasso, Mendez...) Cavenaghi isnt real good @ the bgining but after 3 seasons he become the best striker. Some Belarus players r really gr8 Roman Vasilyuk, Maxim Tsigalko < Nikifiorenko, Alexey Baga, Melivisky, Volodenkov....Aghahowa is a gr8 player, Jonas LUnden is a good midefield player, Pawel Brozek ,Mendonca, Ronaldinho, Arjen Robben, Pablo Aimar, Vieira, Medina, Arca Alex,Prutton and Cherno Samba r gr8 attackin players. Some defenders are really good : Radoi, Ferdinand, John Terry, Hofland, Chivu, Mexes, Akerboom, Neil Clement, Lucio.... Here's a good player you can buy: --------------------------------- Submitted by: Harry "Cm4 MANiAC" Wibisono Cristiano Lupatelli (GK) David Trezeguet (CF) Christian Vieri (CF)...superb..!!! Belozoglu Emre (MC) Alvaro Recoba (AMC) Joe Cole (AML/C) A player: --------- Submitted by: Mark Tugwell Andriy Shevchenco, fast, skillful, and beutiful finishing. Hints: ------ Submitted by: John Swap a team's division. The most common use for this is in Scotland as people want to enable the Old Firm to compete in the English Premiership. Another option will be to boost a team's stature and finances to allow yourself to have plenty of money to spend if you wish. (call it cheating if you wish!) To enable these options, all you have to do is create a normal text file with the extension '.edt'. Then add the following command to swap two teams divisions. Here's the command that needs to be added to the '.edt' file to enable the Old Firm to compete in the English Premiership. This 'Config File Feature' will only work when creating a new game and will not affect existing games. "SWAP_TEAMS" "West Bromwich Albion" "Celtic" "SWAP_TEAMS" "West Ham United" "Rangers" These two commands will basically put the Old Firm in the English Premiership and put West Brom and West Ham into the Scottish Premiership. For the '.edt' to work it needs to be placed inside the 'data' folder off the 'CM4' location where you installed the game. Another option you have, is too increase a teams stature and finances. This can be done using the same '.edt' file as above. "BOOST_TEAM" "Watford" 20000000 7000 50000 The first figure represents the amount of money the club will start with. The second figure represents their world reputation and the third will dictate their stadium capacity. The above command example will give Watford £20 million pounds in transfer funds, increase their reputation to about the same level as Chelsea's (Max = 10000, e.g. Manchester United/Real Madrid) and change their stadium capacity to 50,000. Hint: ----- Submitted by: darren it's not really a cheat just away to get loads of money. ake control of a rich team. when you are them go to make a bid for your lowest rated player, change the option from transfer to first option put it up to then amount they have to tranfer and offer simple really. it cant be refused Good young Player: ------------------ Submitted by: Ranggi Kerenz Marcos-GK G.Sculli-FC M.Brighi-DM-(Juventus)-Parma Ibrahim Said-DC Mikael Dorsin-D-DM(CL) Joe Cole-AMLC S.Nakamura-AMLC Tired for arange your training?: -------------------------------- Submitted by: Aditya Kresna (PELO) You can edit your training folder datatraining. just open (chose one example tactic, pig in the middle etc.)with wordpad, notepad or something else and change the number to whatever you want. (make a backup file if you want) sample : fitnes : 7 teamwork : 7, etc I usualy change all the number to 9 but I dont know the max, hehehe. Save the change, play Cm, go to training menu, choose file that you change and use it at all the day and time, for first squad, reserve and also the goalkiper then confirm. With this you can forgeted all the training menu. after you do this, after about 3 match you will be unbeatable because all your player is become very2 good (not in the player pfofile but your player become more understand each other so it easy to make a goal). Thanks and try it. Tut Wury Handayani !

This list has been concluded by good scouting from the visitors of Cheatportal, so thx to you guys :) Though some more "popular" and more expensive players will appear on this list, the purpose of it, is mainly to show less expensive and upcoming starlets. No reason in listing big stars we already know ;) The list looks like this so far: Keepers: Tim Howard (Cheap and really good keeper) Maarten Stekelenburg (Young Ajax keeper with great potential. Used him for 1 season and he got capped for Holland) Franco Costanzo (great to start with and got wicked potential) Defenders: ---------- Civard Sprockel Michael Lamey Nigel De Jong (Young Ajax left back, use him for one season and he will be capped for Holland) Jan Kristiansen (can be used both on right/left back, get him for under 1mil!)

Stats not the greatest, but he always plays amazing) Youssouf Hersi (This Ajax player is on loan the first season of the game, but get him when he returns to Ajax. Use him either as Left Midfielder or as attacker, he's great!) Alexander Farnerud (ATM midfielder) Nhlanhla Shabalala (U-18 player from Ajax, amazing when he gets 18-19 years) Diego (perhaps the most talented player in the game, only 17 and has amazing stats already. Plays for Santos in Brazil) Ricardo Quaresma Petit (Good DM player from Benfiga, Portugal) Alan Quinn ( this Sheff Wed guy, makes a great winger and he's cheap!) Harpal Singh (young leeds player) David Prutton (lots of potential in this lad, stats are really nice) Arjen Robben (amazing player, really good on the wing!) Andrés D'alessandro (Pablo Aimar 2?)

I always use this way to handle my Training. To do that, First of all, make sure HANDLE TRAINING in Manager Option menu is Un-Tick. This will disable your assistant manager to handle your training. Then go to TRAINING menu, create a new schedule, Name it as you want. Drag several Activities and assign it to a day (SUNDAY - SATURDAY). Below is my custom training schedules, Alhamdulillah, with this I have won 7 times Serie A Italy (5 times in a row..!!!), 4 times European Championship Cup, and 5 seasons as a Manager of The Year. You can follow this or you can custom by your own. HAVE FUN! (Jangan lupa Sholat, Man!)

Good player - kieron Dyer Relegation is the key: ---------------------- 1. Make a career and go to Derby County 2. Put on the worse eleven players and no subs. Put a very attacking team on 3. Go on holiday till the end of the season and say to keep current squad 4. You will be relegated 5. Repeat steps 1-4 next season. You still will not be sacked 6. Keep repeating until eventually you are in the conference. Then buy loads of players with the money and you will win 90% of games from then. Soon you will be winning matches in every keague and get up to the premier Win Every Game: --------------- In England conference division pick Nuneaton Borough to manage then go to the player/staff search screen and scroll right down to the bottom of the staff one and there should be a couple of managers with 20's for everything in their attributes. Sign one of them. Then go on holiday for the whole season and you will win the division. Championship Manager 4 training cheat: -------------------------------------- Submitted by: Noo Sign about 15 unemployed coaches with main stats over 15 and assign them all to the schedule you are using for your players. I gaurantee almost, if not all, your players will improve. Easy money: ----------- Keep going to "Add Manager" and take control over the teams with the highest budget (for example, Real Madrid, Barcelona, Manchester United). Get them to buy all the players you do not like or are not good enough for a high price. Recommended team: ----------------- Use the following for a recommended Reading Team. After the first season as Reading, hopefully the following teams will get relegated: West Ham, Bolton, and Southampton. It does not matter which one does because it can work for any team. Add manager, fine two weeks wages for ages, and offer them to Reading for £0. You can get a squad similar to the following atthe end of it all with other players. M Hahenmann (Reading) D. Ward (Nottingham Forest) John Danby (Kidderminster) A. Neimi (Southampton) D. Barnard (Grimsby) G. Johnson (West Ham) A. Nicholas (Liverpool) N. Clarke (Huddersfield) S. Minto (West Ham) D. Vaughan (Crewe) M. Dawson (Nottingham Forest) G. Mccann (Sunderland) M. Svensson (Southampton) L. Bowyer (West Ham) M. Oakley (Southampton) D. Currie (Wycombe) M. Forsell (Chelsea; loan) P. Thorne (Cardiff) J. Salako (Reading) J. Moncur (West Ham) S. Sidwell (Reading) A. Svensson (Southampton) M. Bridge (Wilkinson (Port Vale) B. Strevens (Barnet) Too Many goals: --------------- Submitted by: Jaxxx This hint is simple to do. * Just wait 6 months after starting a new game. Ronaldinho (PSG) will want to leave the club. Buy him at all costs (wage wise, since you'll probably buy him for 0) next go to chelsea and buy Filipe Oliveira. * Ronaldinho is a Forward CL and Filipe Oliveira is a Forward CR. use a 3-5-2 attacking tactic and put them as strikers (Ronaldinho on the left and Filipe on the right). Have some good wingers behind them (no matter who) and put the mentality in attacking. goals guaranteed. * I've scored over 200 goals with them and with no cheats whatsoever. Filipe scored 140 goals alone in 50 games. Easy money: ----------- First, find a player that another club is interested in. Then, bid a very small amount in the immediate transfer fee, however bid as much money as possible (without going over your transfer budget) in the fee after one league game. You have now bought the players for cheap. Sell him to the other interested club for more than you bid for in the immediate transfer fee. Once sold, you do not have to pay the "fee after one league game", so you would have made a profit.
