Cool, ended up loading a handful of European leagues and eventually took the reigns at second division FAC Wien in Austria

Bit of both really (appreciate that doesn't really help! haha) Beauty of Sweden was ability to progress relatively quickly (short seasons) but also easy to get appointed at the start of the game. Ideally a "second-tier" nation outside the big five but with enough levels that you can get a job easily, if that makes sense?

Looking for any recommended European nations (and levels) to make a start in with this challenge. I usually start in Sweden and work my way up from there but looking to change it up this time. Thanks!

Got a bit trigger happy in my last attempt at this and got fired from Brentford trying to land a bigger job. Going to try again but alongside a "non-league to prem league" save - does anybody know if it's possible to land a job in the VNN/VNS with sunday league rep and no badges?

Brief update on this, finally started the challenge on FM23 with my usual Swedish lower level save. Picked up a job with Karlbergs BK and managed to win back-to-back promotions (Level 4 - Level 2) before being hired by BK Hacken. Think the following says a lot about how open the Allsvenskan is rather than my abilities as a manager but... Took over with 12 games and Hacken second bottom, managed to win the league on the final day! Talk about unfulfilled potential! Managed to add the Swedish cup at the start of the following season, before getting my first hire from the "big five" with the Brentford job. Wish me luck!
