Thinking of creating an experiment, may or may not post it up. The story is, a few rich footballing fanatics from Luxembourg many years ago had the dream that their nation would become one of football's greats. They built an academy with state of the art technology which cost £40M to build. Many young stars will progress from Luxembourg in an attempt to make their country a world force.

Might actually do it and holiday for a while first, if it goes well I'll think about doing it. The Luxembourg Akademie.

Perhaps the hardest challenge possible would be downloading a custom made league for Papua New Guinea and taking them to World Cup glory.

They start as the worst ranked team in the world, or around Sao Tome & Principe anyway, and they are an absolute nightmare to manage. I even challenged all other nations near me to friendlies, and got hammered - we lost 4-0 to Sao Tome, and hardly won a game. Out of 16 games in management, I had 15 losses, and one 1-1 draw against the Cook Islands.

Taking Papua New Guinea to the World Cup would be a ridiculous challenge on its own. The only way I feel you could do this is to take over a league team, develop their reputation by winning many matches, and improving youth facilities to provide better regens for PNG. This would take a massive amount of time.. but if you could actually get PNG anywhere, it would be incredible. I would expect it would be still a minimum of 20-30 years before Papua New Guinea could be able to beat anybody in the top 100, though, such is the magnitude of this challenge.

Any takers?

Are you using an American language set? Maybe this is why, it explains why it refers to it as soccer anyway.
