Way back in FM 11 or 12 I had a save with Barry Town (before they went bust) where I was winning the welsh league and reaching the champs league group stage every season. Was raking in the money from that and building a Youth academy with it however the league prize money never seemed to go up so I was only getting a few thousand for that. Quite like the idea of welsh challenges or even a Norther Ireland one!

Minor detail but There should be a team from the west of Scotland Premiership included in the Scottish Cup qualifying round as well as the winner of the Scottish Junior cup. Hence why Auchinleck Talbot have made it to the 4th round vs Ayr and Beith made it to the third round. Also the winners of the Scottish amateur cup are in included as well in the qualifying round, this year it was Shortlees but I’m not sure if that one will be possible don’t think there are any amateur teams in the DB?

Think it might be to do with the players in question being on loan from another club.

Ah this is maybe why then! I’m playing as Ayr United and the player in question is on loan from Man Utd will keep an eye out for the next time one of my own favourite players sees red, thanks.

Noticed a change in this years game when you get a player sent off and after the the match you get the usual message saying he has been suspended do you wish to appeal. However you no longer seem to be able to warn him or fine him now? I looked to see if you can do it in the interaction tab on his profile but none of them offer anything about being sent off so I just had to slate him in my post match interview as this was his second sending off in a month. Not sure it has the same effect as a fine or warning though so does anyone know if the option is still here somewhere? that’s 3 or 4 sending offs I’ve had this season so far and not been able to do anything about is there any reason this feature is no longer available?

Noticed this too is always something I look out for in games and now it’s not the easiest to find! Was better a few years ago when on your homepage the league results or Europe results came up and the attendance was next to the score hopefully they could bring this back.

They are also set as “moving back to Ainslie park” next year when in fact they are already playing there in the game. Not sure if it should be Meadowbank they are due to move back to once it’s been redeveloped. Maybe something the researcher will know or if the club can give any clarity on.

But the team I have picked as my favourite since FM started is “in the game” you just can’t play as them. So it doesn’t sense that you can pick them to play a friendly against but not as your favourite team.

More or less by the looks of it, you can only go as low as the regional division in England and highland/lowland In Scotland!

I think once you get into your second season you will be invited to join the reserve and youth leagues. So depending on your squad size it’s down to you to accept/decline

Started my first game since the full launch and noticed for some reason Ayr have two friendlies against Celtic and Nots Forrest at meadow bank Edinburgh as a neutral venue. Can’t think of any valid reason whyit would be here and not at Somerset? Was also under the impression meadow bank is now closed to be redeveloped hence Edinburgh city sharing with Spartans

Why are we no longer able to set our favourite team at the start as a non league one? Ever since I’ve played FM I’ve akways choosen my local team in Scotland, Cumnock Juniors as mines and now this year we can’t.

Also if Montrose don’t have an u18 squad listed in real life then you will need to wait until the next season starts and you’ll be invited to join the league then the u18 squad will be available to move players into.

They haven’t got an u18 league running in beta as it wasn’t completed in time but it should be in the full version.
