[FM24] Poland - Youth Only - My first youth only save aka, how bad can you be :D:D - Notec Czarnkow

[RoguPL]

S3 - July 2025

Polish Second Division

Played two games this month. Stal are really good team, I tried to play cautiosly but despite having more shots we still lost 1-3. Better game against Wisla Pulawy and we have our first 3 points in the league.

[RoguPL]

S3 - August 2025

Polish Second Division

 

Not a bad 2nd month of the season. We have managed to get 10 out of 15 points. Spanking Resovia and Radunia are most welcome, ther are predicted mid table. On course to stay up. 

 

 

Finances 
Finances are plummeting again, I feel like we are going to be well in red by the time season ends. 

[RoguPL]

Cash transfer

 

Our first Cash transfer sale. He was getting really unsettled when I rejected the bids for him. Managed to get 12K for him and 50% sell on (Not that we will gain much) also a loan back to us for a season. 

 

[RoguPL]

Very Nice, 

10th of September he signs new contract

 

11th September, gets hip injury in training. I think went too hard celebrating new contract. 

[RoguPL]

S3 - September 2025

Polish Second Division

Set of really good results considering we have been decimated by injuries recently. 

Polish FA Cup

Despite Stilon being league below us, we were not favourites for this match, I have also rotated heavily and we managed to squeeze through with 82 minute winner. 

 

Injuries

This season seems to be very difficulty in terms of injuries. Probably due to more training since we are pro team now, however it gives a chance to play some youth players (which are not very good anyway). 

[DomD]

Great start to your season. Looks like you might manage two promotions in a row.

Sad to see Polonia Warzawa falling back down the leagues.

[RoguPL]

Will see if I can get back into this  Got some more interest in FM again. Been playing other games past couple of months, but FM works better with my busy lifetime  

S3 - October 2025

Polish Second Division

3 out 4 wins last month. I can't tell you anything about these games as they have been played in December .... just realised that there was no update. We are still 1st in the league somehow, albeit GKS have the same number points and we are leading on goal difference. 

 

Polish FA Cup

Managed to push through Radunia after extra time. Radunia are currently in the same league as us just above relegation. 
We are playing Lech next, They are 2 leagues above us in Ekstaklasa. We play at home so I hope some bumper crowd. I don't think that monies are split though.

S3 - November-December 2025

Polish Second Division

Very good November ! Important win against Zaglebie but then a loss to Stal after being decimated by injuries. I wasn't expecting this league to be that decent. At half way point I guess we can start thinking about promotion? We have 14 games left and 12 points above 5-7 places. We still yet to play all these teams but who knows. 
Anyway now 2 months of pressing Continue. 

 

 

Polish FA Cup

Haha, we have only went and done it  not only done it, we demolished Lech. The stats unfortunately look like IRL Lech ones  
Will be playing another Ekstraklasa team, Slask next round .... ummm Quarter Final already. Technically 3 games left if we were going to play until the end.

S3 - February-March 2026

Polish Second Division

Mixed bag of results here. We spanked Polonia 5:0 but that was expected as we are on other edges of the table. We also lost to 17th Resovia to win 6 days later against GKS. This proves that really we can win against anyone with our first team and on a good day, despite our deficits. 

 

 

Polish FA Cup

 

I love this cup run, we have done it again and we have beaten a team 2 leagues above us, It is Slask this time after Extra Time. We drawn Legia in the Semi Final, this will probably be a toughest nut to crack.

Very poor intake again, I think that there is no-one that can improve us in the future. 

 

I will be singing all players except two Unamb at the bottom. 

 

Here they are: 

 

 

 

Don't see a point showing the rest, as it is very highly unlikely that they will ever feature.

Finally some positivity on the facilities. 
Used the fact that we got some cash from the cup, meaning that Money is not an excuse to board. 
 

[RoguPL]

S3 - April 2026

Polish Second Division

A really good month !. We are managing to keep our form up and with 4 games left we have 6 points gap between us and 2nd. Also 11 point gap between  us an 3rd means if we win 1 more game we get automatic promotion! 

 

Polish FA Cup

Expectedly we have been spanked by Legia. They really did show the difference, but we got £80K out of it, meaning that I could invest in youth setup.

S3 - Season review 

Polish Third Division Group 2

What a season. I would never expect that we are going to get promoted. But we managed to win. I think this is because we didn't do much rotation in squad and played the first team most of the time.

Polish FA Cup

This is a really amazing run. I don't think that we will be able to achieve similar result for a long time. 

 

Squad by Appearances

Fans and Finances 

 

Finances are screwed beacues of some loan that the club take. Looks like we are going to struggle for quite a bit to recover from that... 

 

Facilities 

 

 

 

Well the one below is interesting. Although we are going to upgrade faciliteis, I don't think I have seen that training facilites are need to be at certain level to play in the league ..

Looks like JC and YR didn't tick over yet.

[RoguPL]

We need moneyy  to get out of this debt. But these deals I don't think are going to make a difference.

Squad Review 

I think I may have to have two teams again, I worry that players of my first team are only going to get older and the youths are still going to be in diapers.

Not the greatest start as it was expected. Still managed to get few points on board  but it is not looking great. Also being decimated by injuries again is not really helping.

Surprise surprise an unbeaten month. We did start to get points going our way. Win against Motor and Sandecja in particular. both were 1st at the time w played them. Both were 1st team that played as Second team played a cup match in between

Yeah, that was expected. Cup is done for this season.

S4 - November 2026

Polish First Division

2 wins out of 3 and we move up to 8th place. We are 10 points above relegation and 2 points below playoffs. I am happy that second team, despite all the youths is somehow managing to gather points as well.

Squad rewards area is basically accumulation of minutes played by U21 players. Teams with most points get prize money. This is to boost youth development in Poland. we are currently leading this with 4000 points above second Miedz. I believe this is the biggest paycheck that we can get this season.

S4 - December 2026

We finish the first half of the season on the high with 4 points from 6. We are currently quite safe from relegation. I am not really fussed about getting promoted as it is hard as it is atm. BUT we would be able to pay off the debts quicker in Ekstraklasa

 we actually have a preview with rating higher than D!!!!  I will take a decent GK, our main GK is already 31, and no decent replacements that are ready to go.

S4 - February 2027

Polish First Division

Not great start to the month, a loss to Korona, and then loss to Odra Opole who were last at the time, at this point I thought that we are going to tumble down. We later bounce back against Olimpia Grudziadz. We remain on 8th.

Really excited to see our first 5* prospect and he is Farily Pro! I am quite happy with this, but also I hope to find some other gems in there.

 

 

Players I am signing
Really happy with  Wesolowksi (04A)*  he will jump into first team rotation straight away,
also the same with Ernest Mika (04b), he will replace Jarecki(01m) in a second team.  
Other players that might feature shortly in the first team are Lech(04k) as we are deseparate for a 4th DC and Bieniek(04d) on the wing.

A mixed month, We initially won against Zaglebie comfortably to then be spanked 2-6 away. and then again we took 3 from Chrobry. We did manage to pull one over GKS who also got promoted with us last season. 
With 8 games left we are 15 points above relegation spots and only 3 points below playoffs.

Well my save crashed (I didn't have a single crash since veeeeery long time like 2016 or so) 
This means that all my todays progress is gone. I will adjust save interval so I don't lose 2 months again. 

[RoguPL]

S4 - February 2027

Polish First Division

Another try with more frequent save intervals. Really happy with a draw against Korona as they are predicted 2nd. but quite disappointed with Odra result since they are last. A win against Olimpia to top it off and we remain 8th in the league. 

 

Finances 

Well this is not going well. 

 

 

[SovietTea]

Unlucky with the crash.

I'm fortunate enough to have only seen it happen once. a couple years back. 

Looking good. You can use this season for stability if you don't get promoted again.

I haven't seen a crash on in FM for years also   Well I hope I will be fine for next few years now. 


Thanks, The plan is to remain in this league and become somewhat stable however we are massively in debt and this league holds almost no money and at the same time the level of our players comparing to other teams is really bad. 
I feel like we need quite a few decent intakes to establish ourselves. (like the one that crashed  )

S4 - March 2027

Not a bad month. We managed to win against Zaglebie and GKS Katowice which got promoted with us last season. Happy with a draw agains Bruk Bet - They are one of best teams in the league. With 8 games left surprisingly we are 6th in the league and I think we can say that we are going to rename in this league next season  

 

Finances 

Finances are still going haywire,

We will get 300k at the end of the season though for playing youth.

the chance for playoffs is still alive

S4 - Season review  

Polish First League

 

So after a very decent month we managed to sneak into playoffs by 1 point! We did end up losing to Motor on extra time who got promoted in the end by beating Bruk-Bet, but all in all shocked that we managed to get in. 

S

 

Polish FA Cup 

Was not concentrating really on this., 

 

 

Squad by Appearances  

The only reason Gruntkowski had most caps was because we didn't have any decent defender or prospect. so I ended up rotating 3 defenders for 2 positions, that is the reason that they have most caps.

 

 

Squad by Goals 

Brajan top goalscorer from AMC position. 

 

 

Squad by Assists 

 

 

 

 

Fans and Finances  

Still heavily in RED, I hope to get 300K for playing most youth minutes this season. so this might decrease a little. We did sell 200 more season tickets this season then last so there is slight improvement. 

 

 

 

Facilities  

So Training Facilities were forced upon us due to advancing into the league, hence why we didnt invest any money. but how they board want to afford new statdium, I have no clue.

We yet again are predicted to finish last. Wisla Krakow and Lechia are leading the odds for promotion, Funily enough Wisla got relegated last season but won the cup, so will be playing in ECL... 
Yet again we are fighting for survival and waiting for next intake.

S5 - July & August 2027

Polish First Division

A flaky start to our second season in 2nd tier. We started with 2 losses against second teams from Lech and Jagiellonia, who have been promoted from Second Division(3rd tier) 
Then we delivered quite a beating to GKS to be send back to earth with defeat to Wisla Krakow ( who are favourites for promotion this season despite sitting in 12th atm) 

We are not playing particularly great, however we are managing to get some points on the board and find oureslves in 8th.

No improvement here.

3 points out of 9 possible, should have probably won against Gornik Leczna, but we are 8 points above relegation spot so I am happy about that.

Quick exit from comp to a team in 4th tier. (we are 2nd tier) Also our first team played this game so it sort of proves where we stand in terms of playing quality. 

 

[RoguPL]

S5 - October 2027

Polish First Division

Mixed month. Nice win from our 2nd team against Legia. Then a draw against Zaglebie is also very decent. We then deservedly lost to leaders Bruk-Bet. Lastly with great performance we managed to put 3 though Arka who are sitting 2nd. I think that we are still doing tremendous job to be where we are with our squad. Sitting 10th, but 1 point off promotion playoffs and 12 points above relegation. The pack is however very thght and with oneloss we can drop down to 14th. 

 

Finances 

Finances are still going down hill, Looks like we are going to be in debt even more at the end of the season. The only thing that brings any decent money at this level is Squad Rewards for plaing U21 and International caps. We comforably leading that table what is expected. We don't make any money from sales either as our youths are pretty bad at the moment to sell for profit that would make a difference to our finances.
