ludak Posted January 22, 2023 Share Posted January 22, 2023 ND Dravinja Slovenske Konjice Season III Squad I Transfers I Finances I was lucky that there was a worse team than us. A terrible season, but we stayed in the league, and that's all that I wanted again. This is the first time we got out the qualifying round, and we were not terrible against Domžale. I am a bit disappointed that only 160 fans showed up at the game as it was a chance to earn us some money. As you can see in the squad SS we still play with the players from the start, but that should slowly change as the golden generation turns 17 one by one. I really hate the rule. On to the next one with the same goal: Survive! 7 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

With experience from previous years I think qwert2 focus on just unlock the leagues "as is" from the normal editor. The best would to wait for v2 of AroundTheGlobe by DaveTheEditor as he and his friend Daveincid focus on making Football Manager as realistic as possible. His thread is here: If you don't want to wait until he has finished v2 my recommendation would be to download Egypt from the Leagues Mega Pack by Timo61 as he actually puts som time in making the leagues as real as possible. Maybe not as careful as DaveTheEditor but the next best out there. I have used TImos packs for some years now and they have always worked fine. His thread is here: A third option is to search for the league in the Steam Workshop. Sometimes you can find some real good things there. Just read the information attached to the league so you know if the creator focused on just unlocking the league or actually wanted to make it as realistic as possible.

officiallydeej Posted January 23, 2023 Share Posted January 23, 2023 (edited) Chernomorets 1919 Burgas - Vtora Liga - 2023/34 (Season One) Promoted in our first season! We were floating between 6th & 8th for the first half of the season, then after the three month winter break we hit a solid run of form which catapulted us into the playoffs. We edged the one off game against Zagora 1-0 and will be in the top flight next season. As always I'm worried this has come too soon but we'll see how next season pans out. Kardzhali finished second in the top division and qualified for Europe so there was no shame in bowing out of the cup to them. Dolapchiev was the star of the show with 19 goals and 14 assists. Uzunov started the season in our U19s but I had to promote him when I found out we needed two U21s in our starting 11. He didn't disappoint scoring 17 goals in only 21 starts. Our only left back Filipov won't sign a contract and will be leaving next season, leaving a space for one of our academy graduates. A solid first intake with four 5* potential players back up by plenty of other decent looking youngsters. Domovchiyski is the one I'm most excited about due to his positive personality but I expect quite a few of these to see first team action in the next couple of seasons as our original players slide the wrong side of 30. No facility upgrades or notable sales in our first season. I did manage to persuade the board to pay for my first coaching badge though and they've just agreed to another after promotion was confirmed.

Popular Post libbyshuss Posted January 23, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted January 23, 2023 Season Summary Our best season yet! We led the league for most of the season, only losing out in the last few weeks. juve went on an insane unbeaten run after losing at home to us in January and we just couldn't match it. At one point we were 5 points clear but that's not much. 2 draws and it's down to 1! I changed tactics from a 4-2-3-1 to a narrow 4-3-3 after realising my best 3 players were all natural strikers. So Moscardelli 51A, Lippi 40K and Ramadan 45A ran riot up top. It's a tactic that concedes a lot as well as scores a lot so we had a few 5-4s and 4-4s. It's great fun though! Champions League The league phase was quite kind to us with the draw, except Man City and PSG in the last two games. We did pretty well, the only blip being away at Shamrock Rovers, who were 4-0 up against us within 20 minutes! Luckily we did enough to qualify for the knockout round. The Man City and PSG results were especially pleasing. The next round gave us Arsenal, which would be a real test. Which we narrowly failed. Coppa Italia I'm usually really terrible in domestic cup competitions so this was a nice surprise Players Moscardelli 51A is the star! 46 goals and 11 assists in 50 appearances this season. The only shock was he didn't win Goldenboy! I couldn't believe it! He did win this though:- Youth Another golden generation with three elite talents Schiavoni looks the brightest talent. Could be a replacement for Lippi 40K if I stay with a 4-3-3 formation in a few seasons time Career 15 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Koetzer Posted January 23, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted January 23, 2023 FK Viktoria Žižkov – season 2029/30 For the first time we finished in the middle group and were officially safe from relegation after 30 games. Actually we even underperformed, being fifth in xG table, so could hope for European places with a slightly higher quality of players. Winning this mid-table playoff only gives a higher seeding in the next season’s cup, so I’m not too concerned about the final loss. Still the semi-final comeback against our local rivals was impressive, we were 0-4 behind in the first game! Cup Our best cup performance as well, thanks to easy draws in first rounds and two penalty saves from our reserve keeper Ciupa in quarter-final. Slavia destroyed us as expected though. Squad stats M.Muxel *23a – set our new goalscoring record in the top flight and became the first player to earn a senior cap (6 minutes in a friendly, but still)! Unfortunately he doesn’t want to extend a contract and may leave for free T.Malý *24g – started the season as a backup striker, but eventually became our second goalscorer and the best rated player. D.Klinka *26d – matched his own assisting record from the previous season (still waiting for someone to make 10 assists) and won the talent of the year award. L.Petržílka *26g – our best defender, I hope no one will activate his release clause and he’ll sign a new contract after the transfer window. B.Varga *26i – returned from loan and immediately won the competition for the second center-back spot. P.Kodr *26c – set the new club record in clean sheets and became second best young player in the league. Transfers – no departures from the first team. Youth intake (preview) Jambor *30a | Zakostelský *30b | Hřídel *30c | Hanzlík *30d | Verner *30e | Vágner *30f This was only an average intake, but Jambor looks like a great winger potentially. Another improvement for the youth facilities is on the way. And one funny thing to mention - isn't it a bit early to get this trait at the age of 16? 12 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Neo_Geo Posted January 23, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted January 23, 2023 (edited) More Youth Details (Preview and Intake Top 5) Spoiler Season Review Really pleasing season this one as we fairly comfortably won the Second Division and are now on our way to the top flight. With Strnad (Elite1) commanding a starting berth I changed to a 4-2-3-1 DM AM Wide as standard (at the start of the season I tinkered about quite a bit to get early results and player improvements on their way before settling with this formation). One of the real standouts this season was our right winger Mašlej (Elite1) who had 16 assists and 8 goals and was a really vital part of the success. He is a fairly professional player and I believe he has more to come but Slavia Prague are interested and he's already stated he wants to leave to a bigger club. Coupled with our finances being down this year I may have no other option but to sell if/when the time comes which I am a little worried about as I don't really have anyone from this year's intake that looks likely to be able to reach a similar level. The FA Cup was again a 3rd round knock-out against a team from the division above but I'm not concerning myself about this competition for now as there is very little prize money for it unless you win (even then its only £71k for the winner). The intake was great this year and we managed to stave off interest in our HoYD by offering him a new deal, for now he seems a good fit but as ever I'm always on the lookout for a standout HoYD in the staff search. Cisar (Elite2) got some game time towards the end of the season and managed to rack up 13 goals in 6 starts and 2 sub appearances, it's a shame for him that we are getting promoted as I think he could really do some damage at this level for a season but hopefully his advancement will speed up a bit against better opposition. He plays as a Pressing Forward whilst Kubusek is an Advanced Forward so it gives me a bit of flexibility (plus I can play the two together if Strnad (Elite1) is injured or suspended). The facilities are looking really good for 2 years in and I think for now I just wait and see how the finances are impacted with top flight football, I'm hoping that we can start to fill out a bit more of our 15,000+ all-seater stadium as we only currently fill 7% of it The board have been great with the coaching badges so I am currently doing the Continental B license and my attributes are creeping up now as well. Next season's goal is to survive and then take it from there. I'm hoping that the youth players now embedded in the first team (Strnad, Oliva and Maslej) will continue to improve and will stick with the club at least another season so that I can get my feet in the door of the Czech First Division. Really enjoyable save so far and certainly a lot of positives for the season ahead. EDIT: Progressed the game a little further and got the Second Division Team of the Year announced Edited January 23, 2023 by Neo_Geo 12 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post XaW Posted January 23, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted January 23, 2023 XaW - Crewe United - Season 2028/29 (Season 6) - Danske Bank Premiership Squad | Transfers | Finances A much improved season from last time around. We conceded almost 30 goals less this season, so no wonder we finished a lot higher. We still went into the lower bracket, but were were never in danger of going down this season. The youth intake this season was amazing, and a lot of the players went into the team and we did so much better from then on in. I have high hopes for us next season, perhaps we can go into the upper bracket? We also won the cup, so we are heading into Europe next season! We are still semi-pro, so I hope we can get in some money and perhaps go professional soon. The player I teased earlier, and one that I have very high hopes for is Daniel Surgenor 29a, who I think is just amazing for this level! I have bound him to the longest contract I can, but I'm very sure he will leave us at some point. I just hope I can keep him as long as possible, and that we can make some money off of him! I also manage to get a couple of more improvement accepted. Irish Cup: We beat Ballymena United, Ballyclare Comrades, Crusaders, and Dungannon Swifts before we beat Larne in the final to get our first ever cup win!Mid-Ulster Cup: We beat Annagh United before we lost to Portadown in the quarter final.NIFL Cup: We beat Queen's University Belfast and Loughall before we lost to Glentoran in the quarter final. Reserve Team: They finished 12th in the NIFL Premiership Development League this season. Irish Intermediate Cup: They beat Portadown B.B.O.B., Caledon Rovers, Brantwood, and Glentoran II before they lost to Lisburn Distillery in the quarter final.

Riebow Posted January 23, 2023 Share Posted January 23, 2023 (edited) Mid season review. Considering we're predicted to finish last, we're hanging on quite alright. We only have 15 real players (youth players included) and my best player was poached before the season started. Hopefully we can survive until the youth intake, because we need some fresh bodies!

Daddy Posted January 23, 2023 Share Posted January 23, 2023 2023/24 Season Review: If it weren't for the fact that with three matches left we were in first having just beat the teams that finished 1st and 2nd back to back I would be thrilled with a 3rd place finish. Instead it was a bitter collapse. In the State Cup we handled all the teams at and below our level and gave a good fight against a good top league team. The Toto Cup is basically a preseason cup, so it was mostly used for rotating for fitness. Lots of upgrades this year. Also an approved stadium expansion. I suspect in a few season we'll have maxed out a few things. Youth Intake: A really strong intake. No one challenging for first team minutes yet, but that's a real strong U19 depth squad building up for the future. 2024/25 Season Preview: These seemed appropriately gaudy. After coming so close last season I have to expect a promotion push. The team is capable of winning the league. 7 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post officiallydeej Posted January 23, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted January 23, 2023 Chernomorets 1919 Burgas - EfBet League - 2024/25 I don't really know where to start with explaining this season. My Dad bought me my first ever football management game over 25 years ago (Premier Manager 97) and I don't think I've ever quite had a season as satisfying as this one in all that time. After 13 games we had 3 points and were 8 points adrift at the bottom and not really even competing with teams over 90 minutes. I was all prepared for relegation even after we picked up our first win with a shock 3-0 victory away at 3rd placed Levski Sofia. We followed that up with two more defeats leaving us with 6 points after 16 games and staring down the barrel of relegation. After that we picked up a little bit of form but when the league split after 30 games we still only had 21 points and were 6 from safety. The way the league works meant we had 5 games against the 5 teams above us to try and achieve the impossible.. We started with 2 draws against Cherno More & Plovdiv, leaving us still 7 points from safety with 3 games left. I squeezed a friendly in against a pub team (13-0 win) in the blank week to try and lift confidence, held a team meeting and hoped for the best. Then everything clicked. Game 33 - Chernomorets 1-0 Pirin Blagoevgrad. Game 34 - Hebar 1-4 Chernomorets. We were out of the automatic relegation places for the first time all season! It was finally in our hands, but with both us and Pirin on 29 & Hebar on 28 with the latter two playing each other in the last game, I knew I would likely need to beat Botev Vraca at home to have a swing at the relegation play off and achieve the impossible... Game 35 - Genuinely the most incredible season and exciting finish I've ever had to an FM season. I was so elated that I completely forgot we still had a relegation playoff to come against the third placed team from the 2nd tier. I needn't have worried though as our new found confidence shone through and we hammered Minyor Pernik 3-0 to secure at least one more season in the top flight of Bulgarian football. I've no idea if I'll be able to repeat this again next season or whether it was simply a case of momentum and good morale management that got us over the line but the only way I'll be leaving this save is if the chairman sacks me or FM24 comes out. I've never been as connected to a group of virtual players at I am this one. Despite our struggles in the league we did manage to reach the semi finals of the Bulgarian Cup, beating 3 fello EfBet League sides along the way. Ludogorets are by far the strongest team in the country but we certainly didn't disgrace ourselves over 2 legs, a really good outing by this bunch of cup tarts. Not too much in the way of stand out performers as we spent so much of the season having our backsides handed to us on a weekly basis. Praise must be given however to our lone Moldovan Coscodan who although not in my plans for most of our first two seasons stepped in due to injuries and cemented his place with a tidy 10 goal return in 18 starts. Domovchiyski 24a is the first of our youngsters to really break into the first team with 14 starts alongside our main centre half Chililkov which has really accelerated his development. 3 of our players in the mid thirties won't be renewing their contracts with us so I'd expect to see more academy graduates on this list next season. Not as strong as our last intake but still decent with two 5* & five 4.5* potential players coming through. Nikolov in particular is a welcome addition with our only current left back now 35 and missing quite a few games through injury and suspension. 10 players in total were given a contract from this intake, with the bottom 6 being released after trial. Despite money not being particularly easy to come by I managed to persuade the board to upgrade both junior coaching and youth recruitment which will hopefully show in next year's intake. The cup run just about kept us in the black this season but I did notice our finances start to slide quite quickly after our coaching upgrades were agreed. Nothing to be too concerned about at the moment and a couple of our higher earners are about to retire so I think we'll be okay for the time being. 11 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean, the team just collapsed and all those losses in a row just shut everything down and the board pulled hte trigger after I failed to get the required points. Dead last and likely to go down, so I can't really blame them. I think the good season last year made their expectations too high for the level of skill we have. Really annoying... Going to have some test runs going now to see what I want to do, might not post the first few seasons to make sure it sticks, as I had a really good feeling about this run, so it was a kick in the teeth. 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Winski Posted January 24, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted January 24, 2023 NK Čelik Zenica Season 1 | 2023/2024Prva Liga Federacije (2nd Tier) League table | Finances | Facilities | Transfers |Transfers out |Youth intake| Club overview | Manager Profile What a superb season this was! My first season in Bosnia, and we won the league(2nd Tier) with 12 points ahead of the nr. 2. Fantastic! We also had a good Cup run, where we lost in the Qtr Finals against top-flight opponent FK Borac Banja Luka. Our best player this season was striker Emir Čančar, who scored 32 goals in 35 matches. But also Armin Šarić, Fenan Salčinović and Selim Žuna where key players for us this season. As you can see in the Transfer screens, and what I mentioned in my first post, is that there were three incoming transfers when I took over the club. I released two of them immediately, and the third player was released in October. My current squad got some really old players. One of them is retireing after this season. The other two won't play a lot of games next season, because they are declining very fast. Salcinovic is one of them and was very important this season, but will not play a big part next season. So that means that I will use al of of youngsters from this years intake next season. I was not able to upgrade any of our facilities this season. Youth intake 2023 As mentioned in my previous post, the preview was very promising. This is the actual intake. Four Elite Talents, and some of them looks really promising. Some of these players already played some matches this season. Spoiler Next season is all about staying up, nothing else. I've got a good feeling about staying up, because of our good season and the scoring abilities in this squad. 8 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
GylfiAsCharged Posted January 24, 2023 Share Posted January 24, 2023 MFK Vítkovice Have struggled for a long-term save this year but fired up the game last night and joined newly-promoted MFK Vítkovice in the Czech Republic. My favourite save of FM22 was with Dukla Prague so giving this a go here seemed to make perfect sense. I'll upload my manager profile and some more season preview bits this evening, but can start with some background. In-game, the media are predicting a mid-table finish for our first season, and the club's facilities are pretty impressive. We ground-share with neighbours and top flight side Banik Ostrava at the 15,123 seater Městský Stadion. Our much bigger neighbours played in European competition several times around a decade ago, and won the 1. Liga title in 2003-04 and the domestic cup in the following year. That isn't to say Vítkovice have had no glory years of their own, just a little further back, winning the Czechoslovak First League in 1985/86, making their European Cup debut the following season, eliminating PSG in the first round before falling to eventual winners Porto next. They placed second in the league that year behind Sparta Prague. They would go further in Europe the following season, beating Sweden's AIK, Scotland's Dundee United, Portugal's Vitória de Guimarães before finally falling to Espanyol in the Quarter Finals. Unfortunately 1989's Velvet Revolution saw them lose a lot of their financial support from the city's iron and steel works, leading to a descent through the leagues and financial issues. Behind the capital Prague and Brno, Ostrava is the country's third largest city, situated in the east and close to the borders with Poland and Slovakia. We are the second biggest club in the city, so surpassing the established order locally will prove a huge challenge by only relying on youth players. The club represents the Moravian side of the city of Ostrava due to its roots on the one side of the Ostravice River, with Banik being headquartered in the Silesian part of the city, so there's a rivalry ripe for reigniting if we can make it that far. I'm not super familiar with the history of the region but if this goes well I'll be doing plenty of research alongside the save. 6 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post JLAB Posted January 24, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted January 24, 2023 Motor Lublin - Season 10 - European League Matches The last two games of the Europa League's League Phase saw us only pick up a single point after losing to Ross County and then getting a surprise draw against tycoon-owned Reims. It was starting to feel like a season that was showcasing our strength in depth for the first time. We finished the Europa League's League Phase in 14th place, meaning we've avoided being eliminated at this first for the very first time. Progress has finally been made in this regards. As a result of our progression, we've been given Rapid Wien in the Knockout Playoff Round. A side that I'd like to think we can beat in this round to progress further. Unfortunately, we've also got several different clubs wanted to purchase our best player Tomasz Korolczuk. As of the time we played the Europa League games we've had 18 different clubs wanting to purchase our best player. He also wants to leave us as a result of the interest as well. As of the 4th of January, these were the clubs who were wanting to purchase our best midfielder. Somehow, I don't see us being able to keep hold of him at the end of the January transfer window.

Neo_Geo Posted January 24, 2023 Share Posted January 24, 2023 @JLAB that transfer value is shockingly low for a player with that ability and potential too. I think I tend to agree if there are that many teams and he's already annoyed at not being able to join Arsenal if he holds any significance in your social groups you might start to upset others and you just need to look for the best deal.

Fikru Posted January 24, 2023 Share Posted January 24, 2023 Season 5 Division 1 North This season we lost the last game and Skiljebo SK won their game, so that meant we whent to the relegation playoff and they where safe. And with a secure 2-0 win at home, we lost with 1-0 away and secured our spot in Division 1. I think we are getting closer and closer to relegation, the board was very slow this season to extend my contract aswell. So i think if we get relagated they will not keep me. I have already got 2 offers from 2 Allsvenska team in sweden. Good thing is that the board now got the goal to develop players in the youth system, so hopefully they want to spend som cash on upgrades that we need to compete.

Daddy Posted January 24, 2023 Share Posted January 24, 2023 2024/25 Midseason Review: We're not losing, which is good, but we've dropped a fair amount of points late in matches with a lot of draws. That's on me for not adjusting for late pushes. If I get that figured out I think we can cruise to the top. Upgrades: Another batch of upgrades. I'm really looking forward to things really humming along in a few seasons when these are maxed out and the players coming out of the system. Intake Preview: For already being a solid squad I'm really surprised to see so many A rated positions. Fullback, Center Mid, and Striker all need depth and even could be a spot a young player quickly moves up. 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Riebow Posted January 24, 2023 Share Posted January 24, 2023 League: Really good first season, finishing 8th while we were predicted to finish last. Cup: In the Bulgarian Cup we were knocked out in the 2nd round after eliminating First Division Team Beroe after ET. Intake: A promising first intake potential wise, but not many ready to jump into the first team. Dragomir Kovachev, 2 star CA, but lousy personality (He does have the same surname as my girlfriend's male relatives though!). For the people who are interested, Kovachev is basically the Bulgarian verson of Smith, so quite a regular name. Spoiler Emil Tomash, a position where I could use some depth but also a bad personality Spoiler Georgi Zhekev, might become the best of the bunch with his Perfectionist personality. Spoiler Personal: I was able to get two coaching badges. Can't complain about my board so far. 5 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

GylfiAsCharged Posted January 24, 2023 Share Posted January 24, 2023 7 hours ago, GylfiAsCharged said: MFK Vítkovice Have struggled for a long-term save this year but fired up the game last night and joined newly-promoted MFK Vítkovice in the Czech Republic. My favourite save of FM22 was with Dukla Prague so giving this a go here seemed to make perfect sense. I'll upload my manager profile and some more season preview bits this evening, but can start with some background. In-game, the media are predicting a mid-table finish for our first season, and the club's facilities are pretty impressive. We ground-share with neighbours and top flight side Banik Ostrava at the 15,123 seater Městský Stadion. Our much bigger neighbours played in European competition several times around a decade ago, and won the 1. Liga title in 2003-04 and the domestic cup in the following year. That isn't to say Vítkovice have had no glory years of their own, just a little further back, winning the Czechoslovak First League in 1985/86, making their European Cup debut the following season, eliminating PSG in the first round before falling to eventual winners Porto next. They placed second in the league that year behind Sparta Prague. They would go further in Europe the following season, beating Sweden's AIK, Scotland's Dundee United, Portugal's Vitória de Guimarães before finally falling to Espanyol in the Quarter Finals. Unfortunately 1989's Velvet Revolution saw them lose a lot of their financial support from the city's iron and steel works, leading to a descent through the leagues and financial issues. Behind the capital Prague and Brno, Ostrava is the country's third largest city, situated in the east and close to the borders with Poland and Slovakia. We are the second biggest club in the city, so surpassing the established order locally will prove a huge challenge by only relying on youth players. The club represents the Moravian side of the city of Ostrava due to its roots on the one side of the Ostravice River, with Banik being headquartered in the Silesian part of the city, so there's a rivalry ripe for reigniting if we can make it that far. I'm not super familiar with the history of the region but if this goes well I'll be doing plenty of research alongside the save. Time to get my teeth into this. Manager profile Club information Facilities Assessing the squad on my arrival, we're flush with wingers but don't have a single striker in the senior squad bizarrely. The squad looks best suited to a 4-5-1 or a 4-2-3-1, but I think I'll likely opt for the latter to begin with at least. Unsure if this is always the case with this challenge, but I've arrived to no staff at the club other than some doctors, so addressing that will be my priority ahead of the first season. These two have made badly timed career moves and have been frozen out to be sold as soon as possible. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can select to add key staff when you start the game and I think that means when a team gets promoted and playable for the first time there are staff but I usually start afresh, day 1 you put out the job adverts for the key positions. Did Kubušek leave before Vitkovice were promoted? He was instrumental for me in the first couple of seasons. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn't realise anyone else was playing with Vítkovice, will have to catch up on your posts and will be following with interest! Kubušek is still around but I found him transfer listed and exiled into the U19s presumably as he stated he was exploring his options at the end of his contract in a few days' time. I've made an offer and hope to keep him around, though I'd earmarked Guy Reteno Elekana the Gabonese winger as my likely starting striker. I'm pleasantly surprised at the quality of some young players in the initial squad, particularly Jan Dvořák (20 and 16 DET) in central midfield, Filip Šilhart (21) on the right wing and Tomáš Netolička (21) in goal. I'd be interested to know how they fared for you and if you saw much development? 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I tried to move him on, no one interested so favoured one of my year 1 youths and demoted him to u19s for the season, at the end of the season he was willing to talk again and with one of my other DMs retiring I figured I’d offer him a new deal. He’s doing relatively well in the first division. Netolicka - first choice keeper since the start of the save and has won me a number of points in the top division. He’s not reached his potential yet despite 2.5 years as first choice keeper though. Silhart isn’t a player that I had maybe he was sold before I took over (assuming he was there from the off) I can’t recall if Leixner was already there or if he was signed before I took over but if you do have him then playing him as an inverted left wingback has served me well. He’s doing well still and is now considering his options and complained about moving to a bigger club (dropped it now but still not talking and into his last 6 months of his contract) When I get back on the save tomorrow I’ll have a look at those that were there at the start of the save and let you know how they fared. Cverna I believe was there and he retired after season 1 but is now u19s assistant which was a nice touch. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Winski Posted January 25, 2023 Share Posted January 25, 2023 ****... I need to put my save with NK Celik on hold. I thought this was a stable file, as I read some good things about it. But in my second season my team is not playing in the Cup. I can't continue this save, knowing that we will not enter the Cup. In this screenshot you'll see 11 teams from the Premijer Liga. It'a a league with 12 teams. We are the 12th team..... So yeah, that's it then. Pfffff. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cverna I believe was there and he retired after season 1 but is now u19s assistant which was a nice touch. Thank you, some encouraging stuff there especially about Netolička. Leixner isn't on our books, but I've not got access to check transfers out from last season right now. I've given Cverna a one-year deal as he looked likely to pack it in and he is the most influential player in a dressing room that isn't overly fond of me yet, so it seemed like a no brainer especially when he agreed to a wage cut. Always nice to keep them around when they retire at the club so I'll likely try doing the same! I've finally got an assistant manager, general coach, goalkeeping coach and a (frankly terrible) fitness coach. I clearly missed one of the responsibilities when setting the game up as our owner decided to appoint a u19s assistant manager immediately despite that team having only 2 players and no manager, and the first team not having a single coach.

BigJack Posted January 25, 2023 Share Posted January 25, 2023 (edited) FC United - 2042/43 - Season 20. Season Preview Preview Predicted Finish - 20th Competitions Overview Premier League - 10th. League Table Past Positions FA Cup - Knocked out in the 4th round by Stoke. Carabao Cup - Knocked out in the 2nd round by Man Utd. Its been a really good season for us, we started as relegation favourites again, and to be fair we played like it with only 2 wins in our first 9 games. I switched back to our 424 formation and this paid instant rewards with a thumping 7-0 win over Bournemouth. We started to pick up some form and had a 6 game unbeaten run which included this thrilling 5-4 win over Chelsea. The loss to City knocked us off our pedestal for a few games but we looked like we could mount a challenge for Europe 30 games in but a run of just 1 win our last 8 games meant we had to settle for 10th, a position I am delighted with in our 2nd year in the Prem. Playing Squad Squad Transfers Best 11 Another decent year where we haven't lost anyone, and our first team have continued to develop well. Adkins 39a Bascoe 36a Mead 34d Cook 37b Jewell 33d Liddle 33c Youth Development Preview Intake Personalities Its a really good intake on first looks, including at least 2 players who could go on and be really good players for us. The elite talents are: Mastacaneanu 43a Fisher 43b Mcclean 43c Lee 43d Finances and Facilities Finances Facilities Premier League money is just crazy, but despite our riches, we are stuck on excellent youth facilities. There has been no option to upgrade for at least 2 seasons now, and I think we have been hit by the bug or the chairman issue. The thing is, we dont have a chairman, we have a general manager who is selected via elections every 2 years. A election is due to take place later this year so I am hoping a new guy comes in and the option becomes available. Other Overall Best 11 Club Records We lost out on any future fee for the only wonderkid we have produced so far in Purcell 37a, he joined West Ham for less than we sold him to Fulham. I also hit the 1000 games mark. Edited January 28, 2023 by BigJack 5 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
