Worldwide Soccer Manager 2008 Cheat Codes: ------------ Submitted by: boneK Real players: ------------- Due to licensing some National Teams don't have proper players (Germany for example) To get rid of this go to: "C://Program Files//Sports Interactive//Football Manager 2008//data//db//800//lnc//all" once there copy the file entitled "fake.lnc" (You may wish to put it in a safe place as backup if needed) then delete the file "fake.lnc" and when you start a new game the countries effected will have the proper squad. All this file does it put a "mask" on the national teams effected and once you remove it will get rid of the mask. Easy wins: ---------- Create a custom player and add them to your opponents team.

Attacking Instructions: -Play Attacking -Have Lots Of Freedom -Have Short Passing -Time Waste Often Just do what it says there it dosent matter how attacking you need to go. Hope this Helps people who are struggling in the Championship. Money Earner: ------------- A nice way to earn some money for your very poor lower league club. Arrange fixtures for the reserve and youth teams against other high profile reserve and youth teams. For some reason a friendly against Barcelona B brings in the same amount of money as a friendly against Barcelona A would and if you use your Reserve team the opposition will not request a feee for their participation. This was especially useful in the Blue Square South with Bognor Regis. Neither the reserves nor the youth teams played in a league and were therefore free to play friendlies all season. I tried to organise friendly leagues as these bring in the most money and always invited the reserve or youth teams of the clubs that appeared on the 'major clubs' pages. Within a season I had a bank balance of £4'000'000 and started the next season with a transfer budget of £1.2 million. Fan Days: --------- Although you do not choose when you get a fan day it can benifit you a lot. What it is used for is smaller club who want to expand their support. They will let people come in and watch a game of football for free therefore hoping they will enjoy it and pay to come back and see the team again. Make sure you put up a good performance and an entertaining match or they will not want to come back and it would end up being a waste of time. Easy money: ----------- Use the following trick to make money as well as develop players. First, put a player on the Transfer List that CPU's teams are interested in. When they make an offer, reduce it to £0, then put a buy back clause of £1,000. Scroll down and enter a clause "After League Appearance - 1" then increase that to the amount that they offered. Once the player makes his debut for the team, you will get the money and can then buy him back for £1,000. Note: This is especially useful for youth players, as it allows you to earn money from them while being able to get them when they develop for almost nothing and also saves the wages. Recommended players: -------------------- Search for a team called Poli 21. They have lots of excellent players who are very cheap, and they score quite a few goals. Recommended players: -------------------- Try the following players.
