Setup
I have a bit of free time to undertake this challenge. I've never done this before and I'd quite like to give it a go.
I have downloaded a database which includes other leagues since there is only one league in Africa in the game. The leagues I have decided on are:
Asia - Japan, Thailand
Africa - Egypt, South Africa
Europe - Germany, Scotland
North America - USA, Barbados
South America - Argentina, Chile
Due to playing on a laptop I don't think it'll love having 10 leagues running at the same time so my thinking for setup is to run Asia and Africa until (if ..read more

Don’t.
Just don’t get into steam.
I had FM 2017 for several years, suddenly asking today to “sign into my steam account”
Never had one but I tried.
20+ attempts to prove I’m not a bot by clicking on images, for an account I don’t have, and several years of FM is destroyed.
f**k them!
Do NOT get into FM any more, get out or avoid ..read more

Thought we could use a thread for people to document the funny, unlikely and downright bizarre things that crop up during an FM save. I have added a few of my favourites from my current Barnsley save on FM 12.

I wanted to write about a challenge I’m currently attempting in Football Manager. I’ve always fancied doing one, and writing about it, but have just never got around to doing it before. I’ll explain the challenge, but here’s some background first.
I’ve been a fan of football management sims since the days of Sensible World of Soccer on the Amiga. Although that wasn’t strictly speaking a management game I found much more enjoyment on the management side of it than the playing side and it sparked a love for these types of games. I had many favourites in addition to SWOS through the mid-90 ..read more

Ahhh August 1998.
We're coming off of the back of the World Cup in France, Dario G is still ringing in everyone's ears, David Beckham has returned to England a national villain and Scotland are already planning for their next assault on a major tournament.
In gaming terms, Sports Interactive have absolutely broken the mould with the quite incredible Championship Manager 3. Gone is the selection problem of whether you will pick England, Scotland, Italy or Spain to manage in. If you have the RAM, GHz and Hard Disk space (my HDD was a quite hefty 3GB with a 700GHz processor, read it and wee ..read more
