Question for the "England" boys, are you guys playing your matches or with Instant Result? The length of the seasons is an obstacle for me but i want an England save so it is something for me to think about.

😍😍 so beautiful

After a short break, i am back at it. I started playing CM and fell in love with the game in the glory period of the Serie A in Italy. So a tribute to the league as i am starting here. I searched the editor and found an absolute gem in Eccelenza Tuscany group B... a lot of top players played here in the glory period of the club. I holidayed two seasons and there they were... Siena F.C. They have a small squad so i will be forced to be using youth players rather early in the save game.

Ok i didn't know. Thx for the heads up.

Even if i do not select the lowest tier in the menu? They are unplayable at the start of the game.

Before i start in Italy, is Castel di Sangro allowed for this challenge? I loaded up with a lower league db, Serie D and above and Castel di Sangro got promoted into this Serie D...

i actually got Castel di Sangro in my second load with an italian lower db. So i might consider taking them into the next youth challenge.

Anyone got a good idea for a new load for this challenge? I was thinking about Castel Di Sangro in Eccelenza, but i am not sure if they got the reputation to promote to serie D.

Thx, that was one of the reasons to start there What an adrenaline rush that was!

Season 10 FC Wacker Innsbruck After a very busy period at work, home etc, I managed to find some time to complete season 10. We started the league with 7 wins in a row, after the 22 games we had a lead of 13 points!! In the Champions League we had some good results but nothing out of the ordinary, we qualified for the KO rounds. Meanwhile in the cup we managed to get to the semi final, but we got defeated, that came as a surprise actually but not the end of the world. Progressing in the Champions League...we drew Inter Milan, tough one, but we managed to win both games Meanwhile in the Champions Playoff we were absolutely cruising, winning almost everything This streak in the beginning, let us retain the Bundesliga title for the third consecutive time! Back to Europa...we got Barcelona in the next round, we drew home 2-2. At Nou Camp i was certain we would get a beating... They got fmed! Next round, quarter final, Chelsea, again at home 2-2, again we did the job in tha away game! My striker Jusufi, who is normally backup striker was now first choice because he is a bit faster than our main striker Otto, with Jusufi scoring and giving the winning assist, both on counter attacks, made me feel good for taking the risk WE WERE GOING TO THE FINAL!! Never was i more nervous for a game then this one, absolute underdogs here. The game was actually pretty even, good chances fot both teams... But then came minute 84... Schmidt takes a shot from there, Otto deflects the ball into the back of the net, absolute delirium!! We had to hold on for +- 10 more minutes!! In the absolute last moments of the game they equalised... but it was ruled out, i was so lucky because extra time i wouldn't have survived, my players were empty. My best players were: Challenge completed!!

Season 8 2032/33 After one year at the club Galli announced his retirement, this preview wasn't very promising. So I decided to terminate the contract and assigned a new HOYD. Volker Kersting joined the club! Very happy with his arrival. In the CL we had a good run qualifying for the knock out phase, we drew AC Milan. After a 3-3 draw at San Siro we destroyed them at home. Next round FC Barcelona... We just got defeated, overall i was happy with the progress in those big games In the domestic league we managed to retain the title!! Best of class 33 I have officially got 2 wonderkids now!

If you look that up, it is a team/stadium in Slovenia? A glitch propably?

FC Wacker Innsbruck Season 2031/32 I appointed a new HOYD, Galli, absolute improvement! I must say our previous HOYD did a wonderful job. The CL drew us in the first leg against Trabzonspor, didn't know what to expect from that team. We won fairly easy on total aggregate Our next opponent became PSV, that would be a tough one to beat. We lost there 3-2 but made it count in the second leg... What a game that was!! So on to the league phase and the big greasy money pot!! This is the CL for us, what a draw, didn't expect much from us. but with a few good results we managed to qualify for the playoff phase!! We got eliminated by the winner of the CL at the end...Man City, with our head held high! Meanwhile, not to much hope for our first intake with the new HOYD Competition This is how we ended the regular phase In the meantime we won the cup! The champions playoffs were very very challenging, we lost our second game, so we were backtrailing trough the whole playoffs until we played home against Red Bull, we won that game in the last minute With one game left we knew everything was possible with a home game against Sturm Graz and Red Bull were playing at Rapid Wien ( never easy ), so 1 point behind Red Bull was the reality... After 95 minutes they were drawing against Rapid Wien, we also had a draw in our hands against Sturm, until the 84th minute...absolute delirium!!! We managed to do the DOUBLE!! Our prospects were okay on first sight, nothing special. Our financial position is extremely healthy

Season 6 2030/31 FC Wacker Innsbruck We started the season in the last qualifying round of the Europa League We drew Club Brugge from Belgium, we managed to qualify and got this draw for the league phase So we got a pretty great league phase! After the league phase, we drew Rennes and got to the next round to get eliminated by Aston Villa In the competition we were immediately on top of the business untill the winterbreak With a good preview but not an excellent...would have wanted more A's... This was the end of the league phase in the Bundesliga These results led us to a CL spot in the league!! Massive result for the club Almost forgot to discuss the new intake, we got an absolute beast on right back and a very good central midfielder We also got some upgrades to be worked on So a next phase in the build-up is going to be to get qualified for the Champions League, if we can manage that the money would allow us to get the last and final upgrades to become an Austrian wonderkidfactory

FC Wacker Innsbruck Season 5 2029-2030 We got an upgrade in our youth facilities to start with Because of our qualification for the league phase of the Europa League we had some money coming in for this upgrade Our fixtures in that league phase were pretty difficult, but hey we qualified, grabbed that money and everything else would be a bonus! After 7 games we were dangling at the bottom of the playoff qualification, with a home game against Fiorentina still to come Wich we won!! With 10 men for more than 70 minutes! We fought for our lives there We managed to qualify for the next playoff round, were we took on Paok, we beat them and advanced to play Man Utd. They showed us that this was the end of the line this year. A pretty decent youth intake preview These were the three best scholars! Nothing really special but an overal good quality intake to raise the level. In the Bundesliga we managed to qualify for the champions group In the mean time our fixtures were congested because we managed to progress far in the cup, we even made it to the final, unexpected to win my first prize so early in the save! This gives us qualification to the Europa League Playoff! In the champions group nothing spectacular happend, we managed to secure 4th place

Great club and challenging country! Good luck @OlivierL

FC Wacker Innsbruck Season 4 /28/29 Season summary We started the season very good, a few wins, a few draws and a few draws, wich gave this league table right before the winterbreak (wich lasts until mid february in Austria) At this point we receive our intake preview, wich was okay, didn't expect a new "Korkmaz" so just a wider base of higher level players. During the transfer window i got an offer on our playmaker van der Lugt, first Porto did a bid (5mil) but without the sell on clause, so i rejected. Then this happened... So bye bye playmaker, i knew i had a decent backup in the youth team so it was time to promote him to the senior squad! It was time for the ZOLTAN!! The second he started playing, our squad gelled like it never did before, he was the player we were missing. I tought we were going the suffer because of the sale of van der Lugt but no... Our intake was okay, the best players were Then back to the league, we managed to qualify for the champions group So this is how it started...We had an absolute banger in this playoff group, we destroyed the competition all thanks to the Zoltan! We managed to overtake Altach, Sturm and were 4th with 1 game left, if we won that game and Austria (3rd at that moment) didn't win, we became 3rd. And so be it We qualified for the league phase of the Europa League in our first season in the Bundesliga!! Show me the money!!! This was the final league table, because of the split in champions and relegation group it looks very chaotic!!

Season 3 27/28 FC Wacker Innsbruck It was a dogfight at the top of the table between us and Ried, the were dominant during the first half of the season we trailed at one point at 5 points, after the winterbreak it was our time to shine! that good run of results secured us promotion! The title went to FC Liefering because we failed to win the last game against Admira. But Liefering can't get promoted. Our cup run was also very good, with a semi final as a result. We stood ground until the 80th minute but then our ship stranded. Our main goal next season is DO NOT GET RELEGATED our main goalscorer Goalkeeper of the year award

goodluck @OlivierL unfinished business up there!

haha probably yes, hopefully i can hit the jackpot

No seasonal update yet, i just wanted to show my intake, one player i HAD to share already with you guys! This is only my third season in Austria, absolute beast!!

You will never be able to play the game "normally" I tried several times but always come back to this challenge. Weird

Third year in a row, this makes it unplayable again for this challenge. Such a shame because it would be a fun nation to play in

Season 2 - 2026/27 FC Wacker Innsbruck Intake preview Actual intake 3 best players from that intake upgrade! League table best progression We are getting closer to the top spot for promotion. I won't mind staying a couple more seasons in this league, because this way i can finance any upgrades with the "Osterreichertopf" rule

Oooh yes you need it a tool that changes your newgens faces to real ones in a few clicks depending on what region they come from
