		<description><![CDATA[Hi Ruud, 


Thanks for the comment, really appreciate it!

I&#039;m targeting &#039;14&#039; specifically to be as &#039;tight&#039; to the niche as possible and providing only super-relevant content. I have plans to target 2015 in the same way but in the mean-time I am working on a &#039;hub&#039; site for all things FM.

Hopefully you&#039;re right, it&#039;s going well so far so fingers crossed! 

Thanks again Ruud.

		<description><![CDATA[Danny, I&#039;d appreciate it if you didn&#039;t delete my comments just because you don&#039;t like what I have to say. I won&#039;t repeat it all again, as that wasn&#039;t for your readers, it was for you. But I will repeat, take us off this list! We want nothing to do with it!


As mentioned I never said you are wrong to have an opinion, I just said if you want to have one, you MUST use facts, not guesses! Nice to see you edited your own comment as well as deleting mine, pathetic!]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I never once said that you are wrong to have an opinion, I never said I had a problem with your opinion either. I just don&#039;t think its right to guess at random numbers and claim a site makes limited money rendering their adverts pointless...you have no idea how much it costs to run our site or how we balance that with advertising.


In addition, the customer isn&#039;t always right, not when they are using false numbers and making stuff up. As mentioned, we want nothing to do with this post, it has caused a rift within the community (not ourselves, we were just bothered about the figures) but we don&#039;t want to be a part of it. What you have written about other sites may be your opinion but none of its based around facts and the majority of it is actually contradictory. 


So I repeat, please take our site off this list altogether. And in future you may want to show a bit more respect to the veterans of the FM scene when writing about them, again, I am not referring to myself or FMS as bar a few wrong numbers and naive assumptions the review was kind and well worded I&#039;d say. However, there are a lot of things within this post that I can tell and know for a fact have offended people, not because they don&#039;t like the truth, but because of how its been written and their sites have been unfairly portrayed.


Again, just to clarify, Footballmanagerstory would prefer it if you&#039;d remove us from this list completely, I see no reason why you would refuse us that, as you won&#039;t lose of gain anything either way.


Thanks again,
Darren]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Hi Darren, 

Thanks for the message, I do apologise for any offence caused and I have updated your traffic estimate.

It is only my opinion and meant as constructive criticism from a user of yours and all the sites above for many years. 

At the end of the day I am not here to make friends if it involves lying to them and my users to keep them happy, I am here to provide my opinion and my advice to the visitors to my site.

I&#039;m happy to update the post based on any facts that you want to provide.

Just to conclude Darren, it&#039;s not good-practice telling a fan, &#039;customer&#039; and &#039;appreciator&#039; of your site that he&#039;s wrong to have an opinion. Whatever happend to the customer is always right?.

		<description><![CDATA[I knew this post had caused some stir but I wasn&#039;t sure why, now I can understand. Do you actually think Footballmanagerstory gets that few readers? I can confirm that the minimum we get a day is more than four times that amount, on good days its more than 8 times that amount! And to comment on how much money our ads make is naive also. Got to say Dan, you&#039;re not going to make many friends within the community posting up so many guesses and controversial pieces of information. I would appreciate it if you&#039;d pull FMS from the list altogether, we don&#039;t want to be linked in with posts that don&#039;t provide facts. Thanks in advance.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Hi Igor, 


Thanks for the message. Apologies for the domain error, will correct that right away.

Espen has seen the article and got in touch, water under the bridge (he just needed a coffee!).

Thanks a bunch for your kind words and your site looks great, I did sit there last week thinking &quot;shit, I wish I thought of that first&quot;. Would love to hear how it goes!

Good luck with everything and give me a shout if you ever do any similar reviews. Always game for some constructive criticism.


Keep in touch, perhaps we can swap guest-posts or something, get some traffic going both ways.


Thanks again.

		<description><![CDATA[Hi Danny, Igor from FMBlog here.

First of, thanks for a honest review. Secondly, we started working on some changes on the site to improve our visitors experience, even on the things that you mentioned above, hopefully all will be ready before FM14 comes out. Also, we are on .ORG not .com domain as you wrote. Plus, we were for some time setting up our rewards program that is now up and running.

As a token of appreciation, we&#039;ll give your site a shout-out on our official Facebook page and on our FM14 fan page, twitter and YouTube channel.

You have a good looking site, and I truly hope you&#039;ll make a great success, welcome to the FM-blog family! Keep up the great work.

P.S. can&#039;t believe that for Espen :/ not cool from his side.]]></description>
