under review Board competition expectation showing as failed despite being fulfilled

[sue_donym]

I'm playing as Darlington in my second season.  My board set a requirement of reaching the second round of the FA Trophy. I reached the third round.  The board now say that I failed the expectation.  See screenshots.

Hi @sue_donym

Thanks for posting this, do you have a save from before the expectation is failed? If you do and could upload it to the cloud (details below) that would be a great help.

Many thanks

I'm having exactly the same problem with FA Trophy, and I have a theory. In your case, your first FA Trophy match was the 2nd round match, so you had fulfilled the expectation even before the match. In my case, I was also expected to reach the second round but I'm managing Wealdstone so my first match was a 3rd round match.
After losing that 3rd round match, I noticed that I had apparently failed to reach the second round...

I have a a feeling that the game doesn't realize you've already reached the round when you start the competition from that required round or later.

I have uploaded my save, filename is Mika Hakala_20210711.fm. The save is from few days before the 3rd round match.

P.S. I'm using a "real name fix" in my save, but no other non-SI database changes.
