the knockout round playoff is a single leg game. Check the rules of the competition in the in game tab

OP looks like chelsea only have 9 on the pitch as well, was that the case? 12 players finishing a game is mental

In FM, the game doesn't get abandoned as it would be in real life as that rule is not implemented in the. game code.
Thats interesting to know, i wonder why they made that decision. Having said that this is the first game i've ever seen drop to less than 7 players, i wonder what the frequency of occurance is

It should be when you are down to 6 players, please report this as a bug and upload the save

Mr. Jim Owen, sorry for being late with my update. However, I have the details you politely asked for. This is Newcastle spending across the save so far:
21/22 - £230m
22/23 - £0
23/24 - £52m
24/25 - £76m
25/26 - £625,000
26/27 - £94m
27/28 - £15.75m
28/29 - £44.5m
29/30 - £5.5m (just hit January, so this may increase)
Haven't added them exactly to the very penny, but I think it totals around £510m to £520m - and the best that has given them is 18th in the PL.
wow apart from a couple of seasons thats very low levels, certainly not richest club in the world levels

The main thing that seems to have changed for them in my game is the wages. They're sending a little more in transfer fees, but not anything ridiculous given they are (or were!) an established Premier League team. They were paying a lot of players well over £!00k a week in my save when they eventually got relegated. James Ward-Prowse, for example, was signed from Southampton after the y were relegated in the first season. Cost around £40m and was on £155k a week. He's now transfer listed after they were relegated.
You see in my save i expected them to stand out in wages, but they consistantly spend between toe 7th and 10th biggest wages in the premier devision, which is equally usually where they finish. No mad push to challenge the big 6

They've been absolutely abysmal on mine. Tragically bad.
21/22 - 19th
(In the Championship 22/23 and 23/24)
24/25 - 18th
(In the Championship 25/26)
26/27 - 18th
(In the Championship 27/28)
28/29 - 19th
I am currently on the 29/30 season, so no idea if they'll make it back up.
are they still spending big money?

Despite two transfer windows and £250m spend Newcastle ended up relegated in my save first season.
Will be interesting to see their progress from now on.
I'd be interested to hear how much they spend in the Championship and what happens to the club after a relegation

I'm in December 2049 (managed arsenal from start of game until 2037/38 season) and they have never finished top 4, closest they have came was 5th in 2040/41, 6th in 2032/33 and 7th in 2046/47
Trophies wise.
Carabao cup winner in 2029. that's it
Are they still spending big in that save? Have they still got the same owners?

They bank rolled my European charge at Saints, finished mid table with them in 1st season and they buy Che Adams for £74m, I buy young players with huge potential and sneak into CL whilst Che does a quality job and got the relegated, Brendan Rodgers did a really poor job for them
Similar to myself at Villa, first couple of years i was selling a player a year to Newcastle, Budgeted for that with my targets for season 3, but then Newcastle seemed to turn off the spending taps, so i never sold another player to them

Hi All,
After being 6 seasons in with Newcastle still having failed to qualify for any european comnpetition despite the new owners i wondered how they were fairing in other peoples games. I also noticed that after the first two seasons the spending massively dialled down, towards that of an upper midtable club, as opposed to the massive (title chasing style) numbers they were putting up in the first two seasons. Though wages to newly signed players remains higher than the average, and they are very loyal to managers, nto the hire them fire them i was expecting for not delivering Europe

Thanks for the reply, also glad you put the reply here as well as the bug forum to help people searching in the future.
I was aware thats why they pulled out of the last one, but it is surprising as you'd think the risk of defecting at a WCQ was the same as an AFCoN qualifier. Either way thats a matter for their FA (or I suspect more likely the government of the country).
Thanks again for your response, hope me posting the thread in two locations didn't cause any issues.

Hi,
In game Eritrea never get the opportunity to compete in AFCoN qualifying, they do however compete in the World Cup Qualifying
0 -
For future reference in case anyone finds this thread doing a search, to provide useful evidence as opposed to the smart alec comment by @kentonizking
Eritrea in game eventually end up taking part in world cup qualifying, however due to a bug they never take part in AFCoN qualifying. I will submit a report to the bugs forum to hopefully get this resolved by FM2022 as i imagine it will be too late and considered too unimportant for this game to be updated.

Apologies for my misspelling, however do you have an answer to my question?
0 -
hi, in the game do Eritea ever play in international competitions, i started a game with them as the lowest ranked national side and i'm aware in real liefe they opted out of this years ACoN, hence not being in that in the game. But i'm now in game time at qualifying for the next one and they still don't seem to be entered, will i have the same issue with the world cup qulaifiers?

uk prem its always between late feb+march
English prem i think you mean. Welsh Premier has its intake date in April

To clarify, each nation is supposed to supply 75 teams, but they are only supplying the top division teams from the season prior meaning there is not 300 teams to play therefore the competition never gets drawn or started
0 -
Further investigation has showed that the list of teams is only top division clubs from the previous season, so its probably not getting enough teams to start, how do i get it to pull lower division clubs in?

Hi All,
New to editing so bear with me, searched the help guides and not found an answer to my issue.
I've created a GB and NI Cup in the editor following this guide https://www.squawka.com/en/football-manager-2020-guide-custom-cup-competition/ but adjusting to my needs. Doing tests in the editor everything runs fine and it shows no issues, when i start the game it shows cup competition starts on 23rd July as scheduled and their is a number of teams listed as competing in the 1st round (though less than i believe there should be as i requested 300. However when i get to this date the competition never starts, even months later its still showing as competition scheduled to start on 23 July 2020
Why is my competition not starting, can someone offer advice?

Out of those in your list
Here's how they currently rank in processor (most important for FM):
You can see the Ryzen 5 4600H is miles ahead - in it's base clock speed (3000) - and also in cores/threads (6/12)
That's the one I'd go for.
Thankyou so much for your help

Hi. Appreciate any help/advice you can offer me as my computer knowledge is not very good. Once i spent a lot of money on a laptop that was worse than my previous one, hence i wanted some advice.
My current laptop is this which is giving up the ghost HP 15-da0000na https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B07KFML9YJ/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1
I have a budget of approx £6-700 and am looking to replace it with an improved version (Paid £550 for that over two years ago, if i could find something a little better for the same price that would be ideal.
Generally i use the laptop for FM, maybe a bit of civ and watching movies. A minimum of a 15" screen is required for me. As well as running FM in 3D
I have found these three so far, would you be able to confirm that they are better than my current laptop for running FM

Why wait for the powers that be. you have the power to do that yourself.
but remember, with great power comes great responsibility.
