CSC Ghiroda - Liga II - Romania - The Beginning - 2024
After completing the Youth Challenge unofficial (just fur fun aka a **** ton of save scumming ) in FM19 and FM21, I want to win this challenge officially and be part of the Hall of Fame.
I decided to start this save in the same country where my parents come from. The Beautiful Romania. Sadly there is no Team from my "home city" Targu Mures, so I just simmed forward and went with the most interesting looking Logo from the 4 newly promoted Teams. So here I am. Welcome to Ghiroda!
Club
Ghiroda, with a Population of around 6200, is a very small commune next to Timisoara (Population: 320 000) and could pretty much be seen as a suburb of Timisoara. There is even a district in Timisoara called New-Ghiroda. This means that, in the search for the best youth players, we are competing against much larger clubs such as Rispensia and Politehnica. Both have excellent youth recruitment - 7/8. So we have to be satisfied with the leftovers for the next few years.
The club itself was founded in 2010 and rapidly climbed the ladders of Romanian Football. In 2017 they managed to get promoted to Liga III. 5 years later they reached the highlight of the young club history: runner-up. However, they failed to advance to League II in the playoffs. Only one year later they reached the dreamed promotion in the season 23-24.
The newly promoted club just released the new jerseys for their first ever season in Liga II:

Everyone expects a hard season but I´m so hyped to finally start this save and this hopefully long and epic journey!
