The 1000 Appearence Challenge


Recommended Posts

Oh damn, just realised that McGivern spent most of his career not under my management at FC United. That doesn't count then unfortunately, so under my management he has 88 games only, maybe at 25 I could scrape past 500.

Note* This season he has 5 league games and 1 cup game.

seasonal updates for fransson and luis guilherme:

season 25/26 guilherme: http://i881.photobucket.com/albums/ac20/sk8ingperson/luis%20guilherme/luisguilherme2025-26.jpg

total apps: 778 avg. rating: 6.93626 (messed up previously, didnt add ratings intot eh sum 4 division so he was missing a few seasons worth)

season 25/26 fransson: http://i881.photobucket.com/albums/ac20/sk8ingperson/fransson2025-26.jpg

total apps: 809 avg. rating: 7.279889

shame fransson will probably die if he has another 50+ game season!

just noticed in the rules at the start it says to get one of your players to reach 1000 games in all competitions throughtout his career. but then you say has to be under your management? surely a players whole career is his whole career regardless of who he plays for, though the majority of games will be under said users management? if the whole career doesnt count maybe knock off 5 for fransson and a few for luis guilherme, as they started and played at other clubs. i think all appearances should count, doesnt necessarily make it easier to acheive, but at the end of the day, they are still making appearances

yes i think that too - i have YPs from Neppo's project that I would love to use but they havent played all their games for Linfield. Even Doyle (who is 15 games away from getting into the Hall of Fame, by the way) has played 2 for our affiliates...clarification PNE?

Junior Doyle

Had some time on my hands so thought I'd post his stats here, although he's not quite at 1000 yet. I will update at the end of each season as he picks up more and more, if that's ok PNE - shall I link to the post whenever I update it so that you know where it is? Click on the links on the seasons for screenshots, which are the "proof" - and fwiw, this seems to me the only way to 100% prove this challenge.

He will get to 500 early in 2018-19, but I will hold off from updating this till the end of the season. PNE - obviously he wont get into the HoF until he gets there, but he obviously will now and this means most of the work on the post is done (I had some time on my hands!).

Is that ok? He's still only 26 :D

if we follow the origional guidlines and take those as clarification they should all count, because it does say "career appearances". so any professional appearances should count to the total. luis guilherme should easily do this challenge, not so sure about my beloved fransson, he's aging rapidly! though i'll give it a fair go, just giv him 70mins a game and 2days rest a week lol.

and personally, i think the main problem with when you end up playin the certain players in the same position week in week out is not injuries (though that is a ballache), but the fact that for 2 decades no-one else in your team really gets a shout, which makes it a **** or bust scenaro for those trying to make it; if one player gets a serious injury uve wasted 19years trying it, and ****ed off your other players for no good reason!

true, but thats all part of the challenge. I think Doyle will do it. He's had a few injuries, including one or two long-ish ones (2-3 months). But i think the original post said something about 1000 apps UNDER YOUR MANAGEMENT? I dunno. Otherwise, I have quite a few players who started off with me but left and still might make 1000 apps...

The 1000 Appearence Challenge

What to do: You must get one of your players to reach 1000 games in all competitions throughtout his career. International games do count. This can be run alongside any challenge or game. For you player to gain elite status, he must have an average rating of over 7.00 over his career. If he reaches 1000 games and does not have the required rating over his career, he will still enter the hall of fame but will not gain elite status. For your player to gain super elite status, then he must have played over 1000 games in his career and got a rating of over 7.50 over his entire career.

Rules

Genie Scout or any other scouting tool is not permitted.

For any of your players to gain elite or super elite status then he must of played over 1000 games.

International games do count

the origional post just says career, which is fairer than the updated afterthought of a player doing it whilst under your management. maybe have a section for one-club players, and the rest should finish their career with you? or hav a minimum of 15 seasons at your club, that way it would stop people just goin through the games finding random regens who hav 1000games? i dno, im just musing aloud i guess lol

Sorry about the delay. I will update the HoF over the next couple of days.

Nice to see a new entry soon.

I think we should say that under any club they count but they have to have played at least 3/4 of their games for you, or been at the club for 15 years, whichever.

Yeah, 500 appearances for your team sounds fair. I will add it in to the OP.

Which would mean he doesn't count which is a shame. Have you used the corner exploit or is he just really good at free kicks and penalties? :D

BTW, Call me Rob :thup:

OK Rob - well i havent used the corner exploit deliberately as I have never read what it is because I dont want to use it as it feels like cheating. However if i've accidentally done it i guess it's possible, but i havent done anything wierd from corners. and he doesnt take penalties, either...one of my YPs takes them.... (see Neppo's thread!)

Note* 2013-14 season was when I took over, hence the improved performances after I took charge

At the age of 27, he can easily make 500. Hopefully I can pump it up to get past the 7.00 average rating. He is my vice captain, and has several years in him. If I can ge 50 games a year out of him, it will take 3 years to make 500.

Proof for 2 players -

Mark Sanders - GK - he has 7 int caps as well, but no idea if they were all when he has in my squad.

Zach Norman - DL/WBL/ML - only U21 caps so they won't count

Let me know if there are any other screenshots I need to provide. I doubt their appearances will be going up much more as they are already getting quite old and I dont think they are Premiership quality players.

Can i just say it's great to see there are some female FM forumers - i doubt there are many but nice to see. Fantastic work, Rachel :)

I have a player approaching 500 games for the club. For any of you who frequent JoseRR's thread you may be aware of him - Diego Pastore, as of the end of last season he had played 464 games for the club scoring 236 goals with an average rating of 7.05. Proof (I realise this doesn't count for a mention yet, but I just thought I should let you know he's on his way!)

Same as PRDH, just got a 16year old regen (My son) potentially the best right back in the world. Already in the first team of england and my First team. Here comes some huge career. Hope he lasts and doesnt get injured!

Will do, first season done and he played nearly 40 games, 30 for club 10 or so for country. Promising star, improving nicely, too. At the tender age of 16, pretty amazing.

Got to play in the Euro Final, for England. Which we won. That's him on 12 caps.

Lol, just checked most apps for my club. Got a left back with 535 games. Ill add a screenshot in abit,

seasonal updates of my candidates:

oscar fransson 2026-27 : http://i881.photobucket.com/albums/ac20/sk8ingperson/fransson2026-27.jpg

overall appearances 871, av rating 7.287474

overall appearances 839 av rating 6.938093

i hav a kid who's now 22, just been inducted into my overall best 11, apparently has 227 appearances for the club, so with a good international career and injury free he should be good. i havent got my kids in the game yet, but i hav a few good looking french whippets who are 16 and 19. the latter has 70 apps in 3 years cuz i sent him to bologna on loan, so potential there for a 20year career which would be nice!

Cynse, I thought that screen only showed appearences in the league :confused:

If so, then he has made a lot more appearences than that and maybe around 650 for you.

Plus, I need a link to where you are hosting that image to add you to the HoF. Thanks.

fransson 27-28 season : http://i881.photobucket.com/albums/ac20/sk8ingperson/fransson2027-28.jpg

puts him on a total of 935 apps, av. rating is 7.297465. he's getting close, not gona be elite unless a miracle happens, but for an outfield player to achieve it will be pretty impressive

luis guilherme 27-28 : http://i881.photobucket.com/albums/ac20/sk8ingperson/luis%20guilherme/luisguilherme2027-28.jpg

puts him on 884 apps (spent hlf of the season injured), av. rating is 6.942274

Just noticed this thread. Thought i'd include the recent retiree from my Dafuge's challenge Merthyr Tydfil side...

Tom McKenzie - 125 caps, 63 goals for Ireland

773 games for Merthyr, 444 goals, 7.25 rating (552 games and 295 goals of which were in the Premier league)

Has also got 21 games and 5 goals for Shelbourne before I signed him.

So I make that 919 games and 512 goals in total.

And an ongoing contestant...

Craig Fraser - 121 caps, 41 goals for Scotland

624 games and 190 goals for Merthyr with a 7.45 rating

67 apps and 10 goals for Coventry before I signed him.

Total = 812 games, 241 goals.

Craig Fraser is still my top central midfielder, even at 37. So he should add a few more games before he considers retirement.

Quick update. Pastore has passed 500 appearances this season. I'll put up the proof when I have it. At 29 I can see him getting past 600 and maybe pushing on towards the 700 mark depending on fitness. The club's success is giving him more opportunities now. He could play 60 games next season.

edit - proof

your best chance is with a goalkeeper for sure, any outfield player playing 60+ games a season will be knackered. Also you'll have to put up with him being a bit dodgy in the first couple of years as most goal keepers under 20 are prone to regular errors (or so i've found in previous versions)

The most i had in FM09 was Akinfeev at Man Utd and he got just over 500 appearances over 10 seasons, and that was with a couple of injuries thrown in.
