Good luck with the challenge. Oh no! i think i've messed up already as i didn't realise there was a lower option than National C Licence! assumed you had to have something to be a manager so chose the lowest one! Does this make a huge impact? i've spent hours building this team! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe wait 6 months or so before applying for a national B license, to balance it out. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm about 12 matches in, so I'm doing OK for pacing right now. I'm trying not to bring anyone else into the squad unless someone leaves or I see someone I can't turn down the chance to sign. That's speeding things up a bit. Not having to do press conferences all the time is helping with the speed of the season as well. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

warlock Posted December 21, 2022 Share Posted December 21, 2022 Inspired by @Stuniverse's career thread - and the great work done by @lionel messi - I've decided to give this challenge a go. Here's my profile: Introducing Nobby Charlton, named after two of the legends from England's 1966 World Cup winning squad. And my chosen team: Easington Colliery is a tiny former coal mining village in County Durham, roughly halfway between Sunderland to the north and MIddlesbrough to the south. I do have a close connection with the village - my dad started work at the pit at the age of 15. Luckily he didn't work below ground; I, on the other hand, have been down the mine, on a school trip in the early '70s. The coal seams stretch out far beneath the North Sea, making it a terrifying (and damp) experience. As you'll see from the date in the screenshot, I have played through pre-season and the first few competitive matches, just to make sure the save was going to stick. We're predicted to finish outside the playoff places, but I think we might do better than that. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hitbox Posted December 22, 2022 Share Posted December 22, 2022 (edited) Radstock is not a significant town in the grand scheme of things. But if Radstock Town's first season under the stewardship of local lad, Tom Johnson is anything to go by, it could be the home of something special in the years to come. Leveraging the power, affordability and, frankly, unfathomable desirability of amateur contracts, The Miners managed to attract some of the finest players ever to grace the tenth tier of English football. With this elite squad of Premier and Football League youth team cast offs, they set about destroying records one by one. Spearheaded by frontman Jaylan Wildbore, who scored enough goals to make Haaland blush, Radstock Town became treble winners, bringing some of the country's most coveted silverware to the Mendip Hills. It's now June and several of Radstock's heroes have already moved onto bigger and better things, but this season will doubtless live long in the memory for the dozens that witnessed it in person.

Congratulations on your successful first season, and welcome to the trebles club. Good evening, I started a new save with South Liverpool in Level 10. Thank you Messi for the Database, gracias !!! I have been playing since FM20 and never reached Level 7, but I still love the game, . I only play Lower League. For this year I picked Sunday League experience and minimal coaching knowledge. During my first season, I reached the FA Vase Semifinals and finished second in the league (losing the play-off final). When I see the amount of points and goals scored in the pictures above, I wonder how much I am still missing. May I ask something?: What is your system to recruit such young quality players? Are those released by Premiership/Championship teams? Thank you, gracias!! Edited December 23, 2022 by Hanxvirenk208 Typos Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
