Poole Town – Season 3 (2026/27) Vanarama South From the start of the season it was clear we weren't making the playoffs this time. Most of our original team has melted, and the youngsters are very raw, so it was a painful season where we floated close to relegation but a good mid to late season run pulled us away from it and we finished a respectable 15th. Cups The best thing about this season is that we had a great cup run, beating League 1 Charlton to get to the 3rd round of the FA cut, where we lost to Hull. Youth intake (preview): A decent bunch of players but some terrible personalities amongst them. Facilities/Finances I've figured out the mystery of our insecure finances - it's because we took on a £1.2m loan to build a 3,000 capacity stadium, to replace our old 2,500 capacity stadium, and now apparently we are searching for a new site for a (drumroll) 3,000 all-seater stadium. This is all bearing in mind that our typical attendance is about 700. This board are worse than Chelsea's... Still, the cup run allowed us to improve recruitment and even order a training facility upgrade, so for now things are looking up.

Poole Town – Season 2 (2025/26) Vanarama South A great season - from the start everything just clicked, and we sat top by about 8 points come January. But then I hit one of those terrible runs that tend to happen in FM, and we slid down into the playoff spots. Luckily our form picked up towards the end of the season so we still made the playoffs and even got to the final, where we lost to Hemel Hampstead. Squad One reason our form fell off a cliff is that several of our first-teamers started melting, so it’s already time to reshuffle the squad and prioritise the youngsters. So far Filbert Owusu-Antwi (AML/ST), top scorer with 36 goals, and last intake’s Jorge Carrascosa 01a (DL) look like the most promising ones of the lot. Youth intake (preview): Another decent intake, our squad is pretty meh so those 5* PA ratings don’t mean that much, but the two top rated attacking players went straight into the first team to replace some melting oldies, and did ok. Facilities For some reason my finances are classed as insecure even though we’re hovering close to 0 (a bug?), so no upgrades for a while by the looks of it. We had a board takeover but it didn’t change much.

Poole Town – Season 1 (2024/25) After months of buying wonderkids in a journeyman save, life was starting to feel empty, so I'm back to this and decided to punish myself by joining @Padders and co in England. Manager profile Vanarama South Very good season in the end - our squad is poor, and really short in defence (though we got a great goalie). We started ok but then hit a terrible run mid-season which saw us float towards relegation, but after some astute management and plenty of luck we strung together a few wins and went on one of those great runs which saw us finish 10th with 72 points. More of the same next year, please! Youth intake (preview): The preview promised more players in my strongest position (in goal), but we actually got a half-decent left back and a center back with potential, so much better than expected. Facilities Finances are in the red but the board let me upgrade youth coaching and recruitment once, we needed that!

Good job you mentioned this, otherwise who knows how many years I would have gone without noticing I had the same I had no HOYD when I started the save so guess it just kept the responsibilities with my crappy DoF, no wonder the personalities were so meh this year :z

Massive congrats @libbyshuss - I kind-of thought Belgium was impossible; until now that is And @Anners, amazing stuff! Great to see you do it after all those final disappointments (I also had plenty of those, maybe it's a thing when you manage in Scotland )

Congrats @Riebow! Actually went on holiday to Olot last week; definitely looked like a place that could be ready for CL glory in about 40 years or so

Congrats @Perre8, great achievement - winning the CL with an Austrian team in 10 seasons!! :o Well, as long as we all get there in the end

Thanks!! Think I need a journeyman save before diving back into this challenge, it's been a long save! Though maybe I'll treat myself to buying some defenders and giving the CL another go before then ))

Brora Rangers – Season 28 (2051/52) Europe A bit of a de-ja-vu in Europe this season as, after getting through tough knock-out ties against Man City and Barcelona, we faced Milan in the semis (like last year) and, having beaten them thanks to 2 own goals, faced our conquerors Spurs in the final again (and they, like last year, beat Man U in their semi). I played the final on a different computer to try and break the curse and of course, completely logically, it worked We were 2-1 up, Spurs equalised with 3 minutes to go, and our players looked knackered, so I thought that was it. But going into extra time we had a huge slice of luck as one of their players got sent off for a 2nd yellow, and we managed to score 2 quick goals to make it 4-2 and finally win the whole thing! Ta-da, CHALLENGE COMPLETE!! The stars of the CL-winning team are Andy Morton 17a (AMRL) - just an absolutely world class player, maybe the best I’ve had in all my years playing this challenge, guess that’s what you get after 28 different intakes! Robbie Clark 15a (DMC) - a very well rounded elite defensive midfielder who chipped in with quite a few goals this season. Jure Galic (ST) - the man who beat all odds after being rated 1* PA at intake; you need a good striker in this challenge and he was the man. Niall Reid 19b (DR) - my defence is still comparatively terrible but it got much better over the last few years, and this man was key, defending and attacking well from the full-back position Player of the challenge Ryan Nelson 08c (DL) (appearances) came through in the Championship and was our starting left back and captain for the best part of 20 years, 100+ assists and 50+ goals in 536 league appearances, a true club legend League: almost (but not quite) an unbeaten league season [No transfers] Season | League | Pos. | Europe | Best player | Notes --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2024/25 | League 2 | 1 | n/a | Andrew Macrae (ST) | Promoted 2025/26 | League 1 | 7 | n/a | Andrew Macrae (ST) | 2026/27 | League 1 | 6 | n/a | Andrew Macrae (ST) | 2027/28 | League 1 | 5 | n/a | James Wallace (ST) | 2028/29 | League 1 | 1 | n/a | Andrew Macrae (ST) | Promoted 2029/30 | Championship | 6 | n/a | Tony Jukes 05a (ST) | 2030/31 | Championship | 8 | n/a | Tony Jukes 05a (ST) | Won SPL Trust Trophy 2031/32 | Championship | 4 | n/a | Tom Thomas 07a (ST) | Lost in playoff 1st round 2032/33 | Championship | 2 | n/a | Tony Jukes 05a (ST) | Lost in playoff 2nd round 2033/34 | Championship | 1 | n/a | Tony Jukes 05a (AMR) | Promoted 2034/35 | Premiership | 2 | n/a | Ryan Nelson 08c (DL) | 2035/36 | Premiership | 2 | CL group | Ryan Nelson 08c (DL) | 2036/37 | Premiership | 2 | CL R16 | Connor Malpas 06a (ST) | 2037/38 | Premiership | 2 | CL KO | Tom Thomas 07a (AML) | 2038/39 | Premiership | 3 | CL R16 | Owen Young 12b (DMC) | 2039/40 | Premiership | 1 | CL R16 | Owen Young 12b (DMC) | 2040/41 | Premiership | 1 | CL R16 | Owen Young 12b (DMC) | League & league cup double 2041/42 | Premiership | 1 | CL QF | Owen Young 12b (DMC) | Domestic treble 2042/43 | Premiership | 1 | CL Semi | Hamish Maguire 09c (ST) | 2043/44 | Premiership | 1 | CL QF | Tom Thomas 07a (ST) | Won Scottish cup 2044/45 | Premiership | 1 | CL QF | Tom Thomas 07a (ST) | Domestic treble 2045/46 | Premiership | 1 | CL QF | Jake MacGregor 16c (ST) | Domestic treble 2046/47 | Premiership | 1 | CL Final | Gary Fyffe 20a (ST) | 2047/48 | Premiership | 1 | CL Final | Robbie Clark 15a (DM) | 2048/49 | Premiership | 1 | CL Semi | Robbie Clark 15a (DM) | Domestic treble 2049/50 | Premiership | 1 | CL QF | Robbie Clark 15a (DM) | 2050/51 | Premiership | 1 | CL Final | Andy Morton 17a (AML) | Domestic treble 2051/52 | Premiership | 1 | CL Winner | Andy Morton 17a (AML) | Challenge complete Facilities ---------- Season | Coaching | Recruitment | Training Fac. | Youth Fac. | Stadium ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2024 | Basic | Limited | Basic | Poor | 3000 2024/25 | Adequate | Fairly basic | Basic | Basic | 3000 2025/26 | Good | Average | Basic | Basic | 3000 2026/27 | Excellent | Above average | Basic | Basic | 3000 2027/28 | Excellent | Good | Basic | Basic | 3000 2028/29 | Exceptional | Good | Below average | Basic | 3000 2029/30 | Excellent | Good | Below average | Basic | 3000 2030/31 | Excellent | Good | Below average | Basic | 3000 2031/32 | Excellent | Good | Below average | Basic | 3000 2032/33 | Excellent | Good | Below average | Basic | 3000 2033/34 | Excellent | Good | Below average | Basic | 3000 2034/35 | Excellent | Good | Below average | Basic | 3000 2035/36 | Exceptional | Exceptional | Adequate | Adequate | 3000 2036/37 | Exceptional | Exceptional | Great | Average | 3000 2037/38 | Exceptional | Exceptional | Superb | Average | 5250 2038/39 | Exceptional | Exceptional | State of Art | Good | 5250 2039/40 | Exceptional | Exceptional | State of Art | Great | 5250 2040/41 | Exceptional | Exceptional | State of Art | Great | 5250 2041/42 | Exceptional | Exceptional | State of Art | Great | 5250 2042/43 | Exceptional | Exceptional | State of Art | Excellent | 19943 2043/44 | Exceptional | Exceptional | State of Art | Excellent | 19943 2044/45 | Exceptional | Exceptional | State of Art | Excellent | 19943 2045/46 | Exceptional | Exceptional | State of Art | Excellent | 19943 2046/47 | Exceptional | Exceptional | State of Art | Excellent | 29914 2047/48 | Exceptional | Exceptional | State of Art | Excellent | 29914 2048/49 | Exceptional | Exceptional | State of Art | Excellent | 39454 [no change]

Yep, this feels like the closest one yet, even compared to the penalty loss to Barcelona a few years ago... I hope we can do it in the next few years!!

Brora Rangers – Season 27 (2050/51) Europe/League We played great in the CL this year, and some kinder-than-usual draws saw us reach the final. I thought we were finally going to do it but a very even game against Spurs was decided by a late penalty, unfortunately in their favour. Domestically, we won the treble. Players Think I got a few more years to give the CL a good go before our star players age out. Andy Morton 17a (AMRL) was the star of the season, he even made it onto the “best players in the world” list! Youth intake (preview) Some decent prospects this year, though the best one is an attacker yet again. Facilities No upgrades. Transfers Sold some backup players for decent money.

I had exactly the same issue, the way I got round it was by loading a few autosave backups and holidaying past the "dreaded" date. I never really figured out what was the exact issue but eventually it worked (eg I loaded a 1 month old save, holidayed for a month, it worked, then loaded a 1 week old save, it didn't work, then after that the 1 month save stopped working but another save suddenly worked...)

Brora Rangers – Season 26 (2049/50) Europe We did well beating Real Madrid in the last 16 of the CL, and built up a solid 2-goal lead in the first leg of our quarter final against Inter. But the second leg left me absolutely fuming, I thought I could catch them on the counter so didn’t play very defensive, we conceded 3 quick goals, went more attacking, and ended up losing 7-4 (and 9-8 on aggregate :z) Some of it was self inflicted but we seem to be fading away in Europe over the last few years, unfortunately. League Easily retained the title Players Waiting for my defenders to develop, our wonderkid striker Gary Fyffe 20a had another storming season with 30 goals and 14 assists in all comps. In general it feels like I might have a few transitional seasons ahead, some decent youngsters coming up (4 on the NxGn list, 3 of whom are defenders!) but quite a few of our regulars are ageing out, which leaves some gaps in the squad. Youth intake (preview) Looks like it could be a good one, no elite talents but some 4.5* PA players and a couple of defenders to boot. Facilities No upgrades, I guess that’s it for youth facilities unless we get a board takeover. Transfers Nothing major. This must be the longest youth challenge (or any other save) I’ve played in FM, feels like I’ve gone too far to give up but I do hope I complete this at some point so I can manage another team on this FM Season | League | Pos. | Europe | Best player | Notes --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2024/25 | League 2 | 1 | n/a | Andrew Macrae (ST) | Promoted 2025/26 | League 1 | 7 | n/a | Andrew Macrae (ST) | 2026/27 | League 1 | 6 | n/a | Andrew Macrae (ST) | 2027/28 | League 1 | 5 | n/a | James Wallace (ST) | 2028/29 | League 1 | 1 | n/a | Andrew Macrae (ST) | Promoted 2029/30 | Championship | 6 | n/a | Tony Jukes 05a (ST) | 2030/31 | Championship | 8 | n/a | Tony Jukes 05a (ST) | Won SPL Trust Trophy 2031/32 | Championship | 4 | n/a | Tom Thomas 07a (ST) | Lost in playoff 1st round 2032/33 | Championship | 2 | n/a | Tony Jukes 05a (ST) | Lost in playoff 2nd round 2033/34 | Championship | 1 | n/a | Tony Jukes 05a (AMR) | Promoted 2034/35 | Premiership | 2 | n/a | Ryan Nelson 08c (DL) | 2035/36 | Premiership | 2 | CL group | Ryan Nelson 08c (DL) | 2036/37 | Premiership | 2 | CL R16 | Connor Malpas 06a (ST) | 2037/38 | Premiership | 2 | CL KO | Tom Thomas 07a (AML) | 2038/39 | Premiership | 3 | CL R16 | Owen Young 12b (DMC) | 2039/40 | Premiership | 1 | CL R16 | Owen Young 12b (DMC) | 2040/41 | Premiership | 1 | CL R16 | Owen Young 12b (DMC) | League & league cup double 2041/42 | Premiership | 1 | CL QF | Owen Young 12b (DMC) | Domestic treble 2042/43 | Premiership | 1 | CL Semi | Hamish Maguire 09c (ST) | 2043/44 | Premiership | 1 | CL QF | Tom Thomas 07a (ST) | Won Scottish cup 2044/45 | Premiership | 1 | CL QF | Tom Thomas 07a (ST) | Domestic treble 2045/46 | Premiership | 1 | CL QF | Jake MacGregor 16c (ST) | Domestic treble 2046/47 | Premiership | 1 | CL Final | Gary Fyffe 20a (ST) | 2047/48 | Premiership | 1 | CL Final | Robbie Clark 15a (DM) | 2048/49 | Premiership | 1 | CL Semi | Robbie Clark 15a (DM) | Domestic treble 2049/50 | Premiership | 1 | CL QF | Robbie Clark 15a (DM) | Domestic treble Facilities ---------- Season | Coaching | Recruitment | Training Fac. | Youth Fac. | Stadium ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2024 | Basic | Limited | Basic | Poor | 3000 2024/25 | Adequate | Fairly basic | Basic | Basic | 3000 2025/26 | Good | Average | Basic | Basic | 3000 2026/27 | Excellent | Above average | Basic | Basic | 3000 2027/28 | Excellent | Good | Basic | Basic | 3000 2028/29 | Exceptional | Good | Below average | Basic | 3000 2029/30 | Excellent | Good | Below average | Basic | 3000 2030/31 | Excellent | Good | Below average | Basic | 3000 2031/32 | Excellent | Good | Below average | Basic | 3000 2032/33 | Excellent | Good | Below average | Basic | 3000 2033/34 | Excellent | Good | Below average | Basic | 3000 2034/35 | Excellent | Good | Below average | Basic | 3000 2035/36 | Exceptional | Exceptional | Adequate | Adequate | 3000 2036/37 | Exceptional | Exceptional | Great | Average | 3000 2037/38 | Exceptional | Exceptional | Superb | Average | 5250 2038/39 | Exceptional | Exceptional | State of Art | Good | 5250 2039/40 | Exceptional | Exceptional | State of Art | Great | 5250 2040/41 | Exceptional | Exceptional | State of Art | Great | 5250 2041/42 | Exceptional | Exceptional | State of Art | Great | 5250 2042/43 | Exceptional | Exceptional | State of Art | Excellent | 19943 2043/44 | Exceptional | Exceptional | State of Art | Excellent | 19943 2044/45 | Exceptional | Exceptional | State of Art | Excellent | 19943 2045/46 | Exceptional | Exceptional | State of Art | Excellent | 19943 2046/47 | Exceptional | Exceptional | State of Art | Excellent | 29914 2047/48 | Exceptional | Exceptional | State of Art | Excellent | 29914 2048/49 | Exceptional | Exceptional | State of Art | Excellent | 39454 [no change]

Brora Rangers – Season 25 (2048/49) League/Europe Close but no cigar again, a CL semi final exit in extra time at the hands of Atletico Madrid. Domestically very dominant, winning a treble. Players Squad stagnating a bit, but I might have a decent young center back coming through in Trevor Chiken, finally. From the senior players, Jure Galic (ST) had a great year for us, rated as 1* PA at intake, I signed him up because of his 20 determination.

Yes, in hindsight I was pretty lucky with those two, none of my other players are close to that level, and the intakes are typically 2-3*PA max these days; just hope I manage to complete before these two get too old, which could be done if I get some decent defenders. Funny thing I was almost thinking of selling Clark because he didn't develop at all for the first few years, then once he turned 20-21 suddenly all the attributes started skyrocketing, a strange one for sure - maybe his personality improved or something.

Brora Rangers – Season 24 (2047/48) League/Europe I’ll cut to the chase, we made the CL final for the second consecutive year, but once again it was not to be, as we lost on penalties to Barcelona. So close!!!! Try again next year I guess. Domestically, another double. Players We have two truly world class players in the team now, DM Robbie Clark 15a and winger Andy Morton 17a, just look at these guys… Then the attack is generally good, the defence is generally poor, and is going to get even worse as my center backs are ageing and I forgot to renew the contract of my top defensive prospect who will be joining Celtic on a free next year. D’oh! Youth intake (preview) Another attack-minded intake with one promising winger who I’ll try to retrain into a full back. Facilities No upgrades. Transfers Nothing major.

Brora Rangers – Season 23 (2046/47) League A bad start saw us closer to the relegation zone than the title in the first third of the season, but we recovered well and even managed to retain the league with a game to spare. Won the league cup as well. Europe Finally, we went past the quarter final stage, beating Milan, and then a brilliant second-leg extra time win saw us beat Spurs (who are 1st in the PL) in the semi. I thought we were going to do it but it wasn’t to be, Bayern beat us 3-1 in the final. Was a really close game too, could have easily gone our way if not for some great finishing from the Germans (plus the customary own goal for us). Players Our attack is superb, and the latest addition Gary Fyffe 20a (AMR/ST) had a great debut season, scoring 26 and assisting 17, he is some player! I worry about our defence though, our two starting centre backs are in their 30s and have been our starters since the Championship, and there’s literally nothing waiting in the wings. So I’m not sure we’ll be able to challenge for the CL again as our starting CBs get even older, but maybe our attack will bail us out. Youth intake (preview) Another very promising striker added to the collection, otherwise nothing memorable. Facilities Stadium expansion complete, but still can’t upgrade youth facilities. Transfers Sold some back up players for decent fees.

Hope so! Just always seem to come short in one of them big games for some reason... Just gotta roll the dice enough times I guess

Brora Rangers – Season 22 (2045/46) League Another treble, pretty dominant throughout really. Europe I thought that last year’s extra time loss to Leeds was painful, but this was definitely worse. Up against Inter in the quarters, and by far our best shot at winning the CL since all the big guns somehow got knocked out. We win the home leg 2-0, second leg disaster strikes, sending off and 3-0 down. We then peg it back to 3-2 and into injury time, about to go through on aggregate when Inter score 2 goals in added time, 96th and 98th minute out of 98, and the last one is an own goal from our substitute right back who was only on because of the sending off… Pff, a rough one to swallow for sure but since my save got corrupted half-way through the season and I managed to recover it using an old backup, I’m happy to just be able to keep playing for now anyway )) Players Andy Morton 17a (AMRLC) is really amazing attribute-wise, up there with the best players I’ve had in this challenge. No way he’s signing a new contract but I got him tied up for a good 7 years (including the extension) so I aim to get the most out of him while I can! Youth intake (preview) This is actually a pretty good intake, the star ratings are just completely skewed by Andy Morton’s ability - and we got a keeper and a full back, two positions where we desperately need reinforcements. Now, if only some centre backs would arrive then we could really challenge in Europe. Facilities No upgrades but a stadium expansion is planned for next year. Transfers Nothing of note.

Congrats @XaW, amazing stuff! Only 2 continents to go now

@TerminalPortugal Nice, you got some real gems in there! What I like is that most of them are solid all-rounders, no real weak spots attribute-wise; plus a center back with good jumping and a good striker (and a goalie if you can get one!) are super helpful in this challenge from past experience

Congrats @TerminalPortugal, that was quick!! What are your best players like attribute-wise?

Brora Rangers – Season 21 (2044/45) League Our second domestic treble of the save. Europe After a 7-1 loss to Man Utd in the opening game we did well to recover and qualify for last 16, but I’m still fuming about our exit to Leeds in the quarter final. We completely bossed the home leg but only won 1-0, then were 1-1 until the last minutes of the away leg only to concede a last-ditch (aggregate) equaliser and lose in extra time. Players Our attack is getting very impressive - another amazing season from Tom Thomas 07a (AML/ST) who’s having his best years towards the end of his career (28 goals and 8 assists this year), Andy Morton 17a (AMRLC) is our best player on paper, and we got another good young attacker in Jake MacGregor 16c (AMR/ST). The less said about the defence the better, however. Youth intake (preview) Terrible PA this year but we got some ok CA and some decent personalities so maybe some of these will make it.

@Padders this is ridiculous, I hope you manage to avoid the sack for the sake of this thread!

Brora Rangers – Season 20 (2043/44) League Very dominant in the league, and managed to win the Scottish cup too. Europe Another good campaign (yes, I have no idea what happened away at PSG), but we fell to an English team again, this time Man Utd in the quarters. We did take them to extra time however. Players Tom Thomas 07a (AML/ST) had a great season in the supporting striker role, with double figures for both goals and assists, and Andy Morton 17a (AMRLC) won the NxGN and is fast becoming one of our best players, so I made sure to tie him to a long contract while I can. Youth intake (preview) Looks like we have a potential superstar in Gary Fyffe 20a (ST) - he’s touted as the next Joe Jordan and based on his stats I kind-of agree. I hope we do get some defenders at some point, though - maybe next year… Facilities No upgrades. Transfers Sold some ageing squad players.
