Re: ***The Official Football Manager Thread***

First year with TNS was crazy. As the only team in the top flight that is Professional, you are able to bring in players far superior to the rest of the league. We ended up winning the title long before the end of season league split. Ended up winning two cups and pulling a treble. I'm not impressed though. It would have been a major **** up to not accomplish that. I just need to work how we perform in the Champions League qualifying rounds. Next step is try and make a group stage. But that seems almost impossible with the gulf in quality of teams you play just in the second qualifying round.

I think I'll stick around here until all my badges are done. Unless a very good job is offered. I wont be applying for anything. Build up my rep, win some trophies and get those badges. Also try and get as high as I can on the Welsh Hall of Fame.

Oh, and I created a random manager this time. Random name from New Zealand. I usually always make myself. But figured this might be more fun. I was just offered the New Zealand U23 job right before the Pacific Games. Hoping to do well in that and maybe work my way up to the main job.

I'm really enjoying this save.

Re: ***The Official Football Manager Thread***

I am so confused right now. I managed to win the U23 Pacific Games. And then this happened directly after the final.



What?

Re: ***The Official Football Manager Thread***

U23 international jobs usually are only good for a singular competition and then they let you go after its conclusion. It's been like that as long as I can remember in FM since there isn't much in the way of U23 competitions outside of the Olympics and a few others like the Pacific games.

Re: ***The Official Football Manager Thread***

In 1st place and running away with the league? Of course FM won't make it easy on me



Now I'm 4 points behind with 2 games to play. If I finish 2nd, I have to do this like 27 teams playoff for promotion. **** this game

lol lost the next game, choked away the title because I couldn't beat teams that are fighting for 12th place.

------------------------
nvm I love this game again some way to end the year

Re: ***The Official Football Manager Thread***

This is the first time in six saves that I've had anything other than a soft brexit. I'm kind of looking forward to how this messes everything.

Re: ***The Official Football Manager Thread***

New article pops up about how New Zealand U23s are now looking for a manager to lead them in the Olympic games. I apply. This is the immediate response.



Um. I am the one who got you qualified. Then was forced to leave the post against my will. Now they you hire me back to play in the games I made possible. Not cool.

Man Russia was difficult, got promoted from the PFL to the FNL, then got sacked 6 games in because of my "Lack of control over finances"

Do any of you start with a random team or do most of you just play with your favorite team?
