    Description of issue

    Hi

    There are several play offs at the end of the season in Belgium. I've noticed that the play off final for a Conference League spot has never taken place in my save, although I think it should take place. 

    Nr. 4 in the Championship Play Off should go head to head with the winner of the European Play Off to determine who gets the final Conference League ticket.

    For example, in the screenshots.

    2025: Union should play a final against Club Brugge. This doesn't take place. The ticket is automatically awarded to Union. The fact that Antwerp won the cup is irrelevant.

    2026: Anderlecht should play a final against Oostende. This doens't take place. The ticket is automatically awarded to Anderlecht. 

    The European play offs have no purpose. They're just playing for ***** and giggles. 

    This is an FM23 save that I'continued in FM24.

    2.2.1.5 Test match between the club from the Champions playoff that is
    eligible for the last ticket to a European
    competition and the club that is winner of the Europe play-off

    Article P7.93
    Test match between the club from the Champions play-off eligible for the
    last ticket for a European competition and the club that is winner of the Europe play-off.
    Both these clubs, taken in account  they have a European license, will play for the purpose of winning
    the last ticket for European competitions, a test match on the field of the club that
    finished highest in the regular championship.

    This test match will not be played if the winner of the Cup of Belgium is also the winner of the Europe playoff
    . In that case, the last European ticket goes to the club finishing fourth after the Champions play-off. If the winner of the championship after the Champions play-off
    does not finish in the top three and to the extent that the winner of the Belgian Cup does not win the Europe playoff, the test match for the last European ticket will be organized
    between the club finishing third after the Champions playoff and the winner of the Europa playoff.


    This test match will be played between the fifth in the standings after the Champions play-off and the winner of the Europa play-off if the winner of the Belgian Cup finishes in the top 4 ends of the Champions playoff. if one of the two clubs to contest the test match has not obtained their European license, the test match will not be organized and the last European ticket will be allocated to the other club that had to contest the test match.


    If neither club has obtained the European license, the test match will not be organized
    organized and the last European ticket will be allocated to the highest ranked
    from the standings after the playoffs who has obtained the European license.

    Rules book of the BFA. Depends on who what where is involved.

    Also tricky having older version playing in a new version. Rules have been changed, so there can be a mix up between both.

    Just for clarity, this issue has been fixed and working correctly in game. The OP issue originates from the fact the save file is from FM23 - unfortunately issues like this need a new save file to take effect.
