Gibraltar needs to be udpated, i have same thing so i changed to official database.
You didn't had the issue with the official database - brexit ?
I'm using a no brexit editor data file in combination with Dave's file and this seems to do it !
Edit:
Just noticed below problem after one season of holidaying:
Most of the players want to leave because of 'worried about work permit issues'
I have this in the rules(after using a no brexit file, if i don't use this, most of the players can't be registered)
So this seems to be the issue ? @DaveTheEditor

(btw, you can get the Official SI Games Gibraltar file via the Steam Workshop for FM23 - not to disregard our Dave's version of it ofcourse!
Yes i know , but the official have the same brexit issue (using a no brexit editor file is the way to go , it seems). And the official only have one tier, not the u23 tier , if i'm correct.

Great job!
Just to let you know, gibraltar teams can't use or register their players, something to do with brexit ? Not sure if this is like in real life.

I put my save with Afríka Reykjavík on hold because I absolutely want to try the challenge in a country where no one has managed to achieve the challenge yet. Croatia ! Why is it that no one in this truly wonderful football nation has been able to reach the challenge yet ? I know why, just like Belgium, this country is subject to financial (bugs) issues. I think we will make less loss than in Belgium and I do not yet know what is causing it , but still I want to try it in combination with a savings plan: limit staff members, limit the number of contracts for youth players. I will try to monitor this season by season.
My first option was NK Belišće , a team with which @libbyshussgot a very long & good run with at FM22 But then the team with the highest reputation and fan base caught my eye. NK Sesvete ! We start in the second tier, which can be an advantage.NK Sesvete - Croatia - Intro - 2nd Tier - 1.NL

NK Sesvete is a Croatian football club based in the Sesvete district of the city of Zagreb. Since 2010 NK Sesvete is Dinamo Zagreb's feeder team and numerous Dinamo's youth players were sent here on loan. This link will be terminated. NK Sesvete never played at the highest level.

A good squad with a key player in every department. Bitunjac and Bosnjak leaving the club at the start of this save.

You made a good point even before your edit about scouting knowledge that didn't occur to me either. I'll take both arguments you made into consideration in regards to that.
For the Working with Youngsters, I was going to overlook that for the time being. I know bad thing of me to do.
An alternative if I don't hire any of those two guys is to use my Assistant Manager.
This one seems the best option

Who would you choose as a HOYD?
They both fit the formation I'm going to run which is a 4-2-3-1 DM AM Wide. I'm leaning towards Ismael Blanco.
I would always choose the pro one . why would you pick Blanco, because of his higher det ?

Roma City FC
With a start in Spain (Portugalete) and Portugal (CF Caniçal), i just didn't feel any connection with those teams. I decided i wanted to go back to the roots, played in the early days of CM a lot in Italy and i really like it. The clubs, the names, the amount of big teams in the Serie A...man i love it! I wanted a unique story and club so i was checking the teams to be promoted to the Serie C. I came across Roma City while i was using the custom database from Ridler on Steam. So i save scummed Roma City FC to the last place as they are eligible for the challenge this way.
There is no history in the club because it is a new club. In July 2022, Rome-born American entrepreneur Tonino Doino acquired Atletico Terme Fiuggi with the aim of turning it into the third club of the Italian capital. As such, he renamed the club Roma City and relocated it to Riano, in the outskirts of the city.

promotion to Serie C!
We move to the training/match ground of AS Roma U21
This TV money will get us out of the red figures (i hope)
Love that logo and club name. Good job promoting that fast. Good luck in the serie c

Royale Union Tubize-Braine: 2027/28 Season Review
A disappointing season on the back of a tenth place finish last time out. We finished in the relegation group and only stayed up after winning the play-off.
Player stats were pretty poor with our leading scorer and assister failing to reach double figures.
The season saw two major departures as we lost both star keeper and star DM for a combined £13m. This has left us with a mediocre squad but has helped pay for improvements in the facilities.
Next season is going to be a tough one as we try and cling on to top flight football. The facility improvements and bringing in coaches/HOYD with optimal personalities will hopefully result in better intakes.
How is your balance looking ? And the profile screen of the players you sold? Tubize are one of the only teams that remained stable in my 5 year holiday test. All the other teams went almost bankrupt or had enormous debt.

How about when people are done with their main save those who are interested sign up to the Timo Megapack Challenge.
Those who sign up get one of the nations drawn at random (no duplicates) so you get varied challenges and stories.
That's of course if that pack is eligible under the rules of the challenge
I'm already using his iceland file, does it count ?

Thanks mate. It's all good, I'm actually very happy with the change. I love the club colours of JJK and the kits I made, so I really don't mind. I played only a couple of months in-game with KäPa, so didn't mind to start a new save.
I know you never mind, i would mind (a little) if someone starts with Afrika when i'm nog really far in the save because it won't take long before they are ten seasons ahead

4.Deild C - 5th tier : I felt pretty quickly that this squad could do more on this database compared to the previous one. We finished second in our group after a win in our last game of the competition and were allowed to participate in the playoffs. there, we beat two stronger teams and so we are out of the lowest series after just one season.
Mjólkurbikarinn: We lost in the first round against 4th tier team KFG.
U19: They won the U19C group but lost in the promotion final.

Two subs will retire , and some players want to leave. If i can keep our four best players and introduce 4 or 5 players from the first intake, i should be fine for next season.
Ibáñez was our best player ! Scored 13 in 18 games and only 17.Finances & Upgrades

agreed....I'm thinking who to play next.
- Serbia seems like a nice country to play. OFK Beograd seems like a great fallen local team to rebuild and Serbia has not been cleared yet.
- Afrika in Iceland seems awesome...do you need a custom CD to play them?
- I've not played in Brazil before. Maybe Perolas Negras? Would need alot of reloads and in beta they could not promote.
- or I could start my Polonia game.choices choices
Yes you need custom db for Afrika . Maybe Caledonian Braves something for you? Or i would love to see a new youth adventure in Brazil

The balkans look really bare but Northern Ireland looks tempting.
If I tire of Switzerland / fail ‘ complete it, I reckon I’ll give Northern Ireland a go since wales is now off the list

And so we win...and I finish the challange.
I loved it. First time I managed to finish it in three years. Sadly Turkiye didn't have alot of foreign intake but I loved playing there. Alot of interesting clubs with rich history. Amazing intakes...much better than I remember in Poland or Netherlands.
Good job and what a superb way to finish it against a team like Barcelona ! and after Wales , now Turkey is completed

Restart in Iceland with a great database from @Timo61
Knattspyrnufélagið Afríkuliðið ( Afríka Reykjavík) in Iceland ! They finished bottom in 4.Deild (5th tier)

Database | Manager | Club vision | Supporter Profile | Finances | Facilities
Afríka Reykjavík must be the first team about which I cannot find a wikipedia page and facebook page. This perhaps says everything about the hardcore challenge this will be. Hardly any players, very weak youth intakes and very difficult to get out of the lowest divisions.
Like Africanos Bragança of Portugal, this is a team with foreign newgens in Iceland. Very unique especially as it produces mostly Polish youth players, African and then players from all over the world. Why there are specifically many Polish and African players coming through from the youth academy is not clear but there are around 20000 poles living in Iceland. That makes them the biggest minority ethnic group in Iceland. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Poles_in_Iceland
No more issues in this database: League structure, cups, u19 situation, subs rule , competition dates , everything seems to be correct!

Speechless. Honestly, speechless. WHAT A WIN! WHAT A WAY TO WIN IT! We gave Oliver his champions league final that he's been waiting 20 years for, playing him in the Right Midfielder position in his last game before retiring. What a career he's had. We knew this was our last chance to win it for years. The best players on the team are aging and the youth prospects won't be ready to play properly for a good few seasons. We had absolutely no right to win that, the semi final against benfica, 6-6 aggregate and a win on penalties was a little bit stressful to say the least, and then 3-3 against Bayern and winning on penalties there too. I just don't know how we've done it. The team had no right being in the knockout rounds on pure quality, nevermind winning it. We got so so lucky.
Our goalkeeper rick forbes was absolutely working overtime, in the last 20 games he only got a rating under seven three times, and in the away benfica game he played at a 9.1, in the bayern game he played at an 8.9. He's the reason we made it to the finals and he's undoubtedly the reason we won it. What a player. Brad powell, at the young age of 24 is already a Wales national and he was involved in all 3 of our goals in the final, with a goal and 2 assists. He played at a 9.7, another essential figure in our team that we would be nowhere without.
I could continue but I think you get the point, our players played well above their skills, and that win couldn't be repeated in another 1,000,000 games. Wow.
League Performance
Very unspectacular league season. TNS took us to a fight until the end. They're a really quality team but they do not do well enough in Europe.
Here's the table. Ruthin are my biggest surprise in this season, they always seem to get destroyed early on and then come back in spectacular fashion, I love watching their antics.
Europe
No clue how this happened, again, its just incredible.
We got so, so lucky in playing no English teams in the knockouts. They always seem to crush us beyond comprehension. If you're looking at just the results it looks so mixed. We came 20th in the league stage. 20TH! I came 2nd last season in the league phase, equal on points to Real Madrid in first, but that season we got knocked out in the QF by Liverpool.
The Benfica away game was an absolute mess. a red for each team and a chaotic penalty shootout to say the least. Not sure how we managed to score 4 against their massively superior team but I was so chuffed to even be in the final.
Ollie James had an unimpressive end to his career, and sadly I couldn't keep him on for the penalties, I wasn't really sure there would be penalties anyway, that goal from Brad Powell was so needed. I love that man with my whole heart.
The Squad
I would like to reiterate that we do not have the quality to be near the Champions league final, and im still so confused as to how we reached it.
Like, I adore this man but this isn't what a CL final goalkeeper looks like attribute wise. But he played so amazingly that I can't really complain.
Once again, its like we're playing with a very dodgy league 1 side and we've managed to drag it to the CL final. Wow. Brad is a great player on the field though and thats all that matters. Jeez. I can't believe it.
What an achievement ! goob job
First time in Wales !

There is a big chance that I will restart this save since someone is planning to release a good database without any cup and u19 issues for iceland . If this is the case I'll restart this adventure with Afrika, luckily I'm only in season 2.

Thanks ! just to be sure, what did will be the difference if i compare this with the gibraltar official file? i noticed a different 'end' table but groups are correctly split after 10 games. did you change anything else that could be important? just so i know i wait for your updated file or not
The official file is fine concerning brexit rules and squad rules (holidayed one season).
