I've personally never checked it.

I'm just habitual about trying to move up when I do the journeyman save.

I've had the moniker "mercenary" on FM more than once.

I’ve went with a former international football who is known at the national level, but has no coaching badges.

I ended up at Macclesfield Town (England League 2) who have a total of 60 grand US in the bank and the chairman wants to avoid relegation.

This is going to be interesting.

You have a hidden attribute, professionalism, and applying for jobs while in one hurts this and makes it decline the more you do it. Which hurts your chances of getting a better job. Its best to step down (resign) and then apply for jobs if you are unhappy or want to move on. Only apply for ones you think you can get if still in a job once a while. If you apply while employed too much it becomes very hard to get decent jobs. And you might get fired for doing so. Which hurts your rep even more.

Thanks for the insightful reply , makes sense now. Finishing this last part of the season
(currently 4th) and resigning regardless to look for wealthier clubs.

Don't know if it's a glitch or not but both the 1st and 2nd knockout rounds in the Europa League are 1 leg games instead of 2. (I'm in 2022)

Y’all have inspired me too. Think I’m going to load up the UK too.

I've shelved my database while I start up my journeyman save. Top 8 countries in UEFA and the US!

How does the MLS hold up over time? My son did a sim 25 years ahead and it was garbage but I don’t know that he had a good database loaded. (He’s 11)

Most teams only had 2-4 regen players. The rest were grayed out.

If you’re doing a serious MLS save, I’d probably load up Mexico and a bunch of South American leagues as well.
