Having lost my MK Dons save due to my laptop HD going out ( let this be a lesson, always cloud save) I went round and round trying to decide my next save. I have a couple going but i needed one that was different and would capture my attention.I decided to do a world save. First thing i did was run over to sortitoutsi and download every ESS logo pack they had. After taking forever to install i loaded every country and every league into a save, Started it and then looked at every league and wrote down what leagues didnt have logos and then restarted a new save with only the leagues i had logos for. It ended up being 46 nations and 97 leagues.

I set my manager attributes as low as i could, Sunday league footballer and no badges. My plan was to holiday and apply for every job there was that was open and the first team to offer to hire me, take that job. After that i can be more choosy but the only rule i set for myself is i cannot apply for any job nor show interest. I also must no comment any questions asking me about interest in a certain job. So basically if they dont approach me first with a interview request, I cant apply myself. I thought i would have to sim for a while but as it turns out took exactly one game day and one interview to get that first job......

KFC Vigor Wuitens Hamme in Derde Class A was the winner or loser (depending on who you ask). Having never managed in Belgium, Should be fun. I could not find any kits for them anywhere so i decided to use the templates i downloaded and choose my own. It also had no city pic so had to google Hamme and find one. I just hope its actually a pic of the city lol. as i am just starting i will update this after i get coaches, any transfers and so on.

First order of business was cutting payroll as i was over the wage budget. I quickly looked through my squad and earmarked any players i deemed expendable. came across Jan criel. A good looking Center Back with one exception... He couldnt tackle to save his life. He was my prime target to dump and i put him up for transfer. took a month or so but finally got an offer. the offer of 5k was far under his estimated value of 25 k but this was about losing salary so i bit the bullet and pulled the trigger on it.

As preseason rolls on the club is getting further in debt as my payroll is dropped by 80k to 360k. having been forced to sell a few good players i play my first friendly with the team agaisnt KV Kortrijk Voetbalt from the Juliper division. amazingly we draw with them. A good sign for my lower league squad heading into the season.

Season is here! Finally after simming for 2 days i have goten to the start of the season. having to ship out 3 of my best players have put a damper on my ideas of possibly getting promoted but i will use this season to get the squad in better financial footing if i can. First game on the schedule is the 3rd round of the Croky Cop against Faymonville. Its been a long preseason but finally good to get things rolling
