St Joseph's Football Club - Gibraltar- National League - Intro Database | Manager | Club info | Club vision | Facilities | Finances | Squad | Squad Calc. Intro The combination of signing Academy graduates or players with Gibraltarian nationality only and building a small nation seemed to me a worthwhile final attempt on FM21. So I will mostly use players from my own youth academy. There is a big chance that I will be buying players from other teams born in Gibraltar, at a later date. This to increase our chances to pick up a rare Gibraltar superstar.. You could call this a Basque Gibraltarian only save. This is my second attempt in Gibraltar. The first one with Manchester 62 failed because of brexit and registration rules. This forced all the other teams to play without their best players. We also had to deal with a prize money bug. This is fixed now (i'm using a 'no brexit' file). After months playing the youth only challenge, i let my kids decide who i should pick next and they loved the location and logo . Why Gibraltar and St Joseph's F.C. ? St Joseph's is the oldest club but only won the league once in 1996. They are the fourth team in Gibraltar at the moment and have some quality (old) Spanish players. I like the fact that this is a small 'fast' league, the nice story with the rock of Gibraltar, the link with England & Spain, building a small nation and St Joseph F.C. being the oldest (Pioneer) club of Gibraltar , is also special. I'm also in love with their kit. All credits to @Jimbokav1971 for his great topic (Conquered Gibraltar with Lincoln) and all the commitment from @cel1234, to update the database . I'm using his latest datbase so this will be much harder. Also Boca are no longer involved in Gibraltar national league. Cel1234 made the Intermediate (2th tier with u23 teams) available from the start. The story with Lynx from @mattyjames_ was also an inspiration !

This is my second attempt at a Gibraltar save. This time, I will be using SI official update + I have enabled relegation out of the second division. I have also enabled players in continental competitions which makes European games a loooot more challenging. The plan is to holiday a season, take the newly promoted side and see how far a Gibraltar-only policy can bring us. Gibraltar has the lowest youth rating in Europe at 15, so this will be an interesting adventure, I hope. 2017/18 season turned out to be uneventful domestically, with Red Imps dominating Gibraltar to a double. Man City waltzed to a maiden Champions League win against Atletico. However, in Europa League there were a couple interesting plotlines with Sparta Praha reaching semifinal and Shakhtar winning it on pens against AC Milan. England won the 2018 World Cup defeating Uruguay 2-1 whilst Spain got the bronze beating Germany by the same scoreline. Meanwhile, Gib Reg got promoted into the second division and turned semi-professional, so I have to take them as my team. Their facilities are rubbish but at least we're not sharing the Victoria stadium. Myself, no qualificiations except a resemblance to that man from Kretinga taking youth-only Lithuanians to semi-final of Europa League. Team's not amazing but has some decent depth on the wings but only two CMs and a single GK! That's something I'll try to address ASAP. Finances are standard for a newly promoted club at 30k but our semi-professional status means we'll start losing money very fast and indeed 5 teams in Gibraltar already have insecure financial status.

Well as the title says...I am a Greek who start a save in Andorra and now moves to a country who has one of the oldest FA in world (1895) and people there love Football,so welcome to.. Gibraltar (/dʒɪˈbrɔːltə(r)/; Spanish pronunciation: [xiβɾalˈtaɾ]) is a British Overseas Territorylocated at the southern tip of the Iberian Peninsula.[8][9] It has an area of 6.7 km2(2.6 sq mi) and is bordered to the north by Spain. The landscape is dominated by the Rock of Gibraltar at the foot of which is a densely populated town area, home to over 30,000 people, primarily Gibraltarians.[10] In 1704, Anglo-Dutch forces captured Gibraltar from Spain during the War of the Spanish Succession on behalf of the Habsburg claim to the Spanish throne. The territory was ceded to Great Britain in perpetuity under the Treaty of Utrecht in 1713. During World War II it was an important base for the Royal Navy as it controlled the entrance and exit to the Mediterranean Sea, the Strait of Gibraltar, which is only 8 miles (13 km) wide at this naval choke point. It remains strategically important, with half the world's seaborne trade passing through the strait.[11][12][13] Today Gibraltar's economy is based largely on tourism, online gambling, financial services and cargo ship refuelling.[14][15][16][17] The sovereignty of Gibraltar is a point of contention in Anglo-Spanish relations because Spain asserts a claim to the territory.[18][15] Gibraltarians rejected proposals for Spanish sovereignty in a 1967 referendum and, in a 2002 referendum, the idea of shared sovereignty was also rejected. SET UP COACH CLUB Lincoln Red Imps Football Club is a semi-professional football club from Gibraltar. They play in the Gibraltar Premier Division, and share the Victoria Stadium with all other clubs in the territory.[2] They are the country's record champion with 23 league titles, including fourteen consecutive titles between 2003 and 2016, and in 2014 were the first team to represent Gibraltar in the UEFA Champions League STADIUM
