Set Up I have loaded the following leagues to commence my save and will have the rest of the leagues on View Only so that I can change the direction of my career if I want to further into the save in the future. Manager Profile I have commenced Unemployed and with a Sunday League Reputation with the intention of proving myself in the lower leagues in an attempt to obtain a higher reputation job as soon as possible. When looking at the club I will be starting at I will assess all of the clubs I have interviews at and determine which I feel will be the best club to -
Meet Sanchez Asambani, a young man from Tijuana, Mexico who has decided to go on a footballing odyssey in Europe with the aim of reaching the top of the footballing world Unfortunately Sanchez is not a wise man, or a man with any natural talent as a manager. But he has decided that he is the man to reach the pinnacle of European football, armed only with his trusty map of Europe, a copy of Rothman's 1992, and a battered second hand Panini sticker album from USE '94, containing only 17 lonely stickers. His view is that football can't have changed much in his lifetime, so he -

Management History Introduction "Hang on a minute lads, I've got a great idea" There's a common turn of phrase in football where fans will identify their favourite team from a particular country. For example, my French team happens to be St Etienne (because I like the band). Well, when I lived in Wales for a few years around the turn of the century, I developed a fondness for Bangor City. Over the years that attachment has not gone, but I've not really kept up with them as much as I would English football. Last year I noticed they had been demoted a number of lea -
Welcome to Season 1 Episode 1 of my FM20 story, The Head Coach. This is a LLM Journeyman story with a twist, as we work under a director of football with the players/staff we're given at every club on our road from non league to legendary status! In episode 1, we look for our first job of the series as an unemployed manager, before meeting our new club once we receive a job offer!

Let me tell you something, my friend. Hope is a dangerous thing. Hope can drive a man insane. All football supporters have suffered the agony of hope. The "what could have been" moments. The heartbreak. The days when your social-media-obsessed striker couldn't hit water if he fell out of a boat. Barbosa at the Maracana, 1950. Messi in the final of the Copa America, 2016. Baggio in the World Cup final, 1994. Ghana at the 2010 World Cup. Bayern Munich in Barcelona, 1999. John Terry in Moscow, 2008. For many, redemption comes in one form or another, some more glamorous -
First time writer but have read a lot of the stories in here, really enjoying the work done by @Makoto Nakamura and @Jimbokav1971. For this I have started unemployed with no badges and will apply for all jobs until I get one! I would like to concentrate on the development of youth but this wont be a strictly youth save. Heres how I started with my leagues: And here is the manager: I holidayed and applied for all available jobs. Getting knock back after knock back and here is where I ended up! In my homeland! Ironically I have played, scored and been sent

I decided to start a The Journey. Without a coach's license I applied to several teams from Liga 5 and Liga 4 Bucharest and Ilfov, and 3 of them have already called me for an interview. The first is VK Soccer. The team from the fifth Romanian League aims to be the middle of the league in the fifth Romanian League. They told me they had no financial resources, but what do I expect from the Fifth League of Romania? The second team that called me for the interview is Venus Bucharest, a tradition team from the Firth League in Romania. Venus Bucharest wants the middle of the standings in

I seem to be stuck in a foreign country with only work laptop, so what better way to get through lockdown than a game of FM? I have loaded every single vanilla Norwegian, Finnish, Swedish, Danish and Icelandic leagues and will try a Gundo challenge in each of them (taking a newly promoted club in the lowest division to CL glory). As usual I have loaded all players in continental competitions in Europe to add a bit more difficulty and, hopefully, diversity to the save. I will not be limiting myself in any way (previous few games were mostly youth only), so it's back to scouting l

Long time reader, very (I mean VERY) occasional poster. Having been taken in mainly by @Makoto Nakamura's fantastic careers, I've always wanted to do something big, but unique, that I can really get stuck in to. In the past 5 weeks I've spent a lot of time at home, for fairly obvious reasons, and some serious hours have gone into FM. After dominating the world many times with Ajax, taking Derby to the Champions League, and attempting to get the side I play in England Level 12 to be World beaters (I failed), I've decided to get involved here and attempt a seriously long journey, that

Let me tell you something, my friend. Hope is a dangerous thing. Hope can drive a man insane. All football supporters have suffered the agony of hope. The "what could have been" moments. The heartbreak. The days when your **** of a striker couldn't hit water if he fell out of a ****ing boat. Barbosa at the Maracana, 1950. Messi in the final of the Copa America, 2016. Baggio in the World Cup final, 1994. Ghana at the 2010 World Cup. Bayern Munich in Barcelona, 1999. John Terry in Moscow, 2008. (Ok, if I'm being honest the last two were pretty frickin' beautiful and c

Returning to a place I've been before... A new thread in 2020, finally. I've not had the time or the mood honestly to get back in to FM 2020 after my Red Star save fizzled out last year. It didn't help that I started a new job in January, either. As I don't plan on spending as much time as before on playing FM I am doing this save on FM Touch to still be able to update the thread regularly. The general idea: a journeyman (which is a kind of save I rarely ever do), but I can only manage teams from places I've visited in real life. To give the career more of a through-line I

After a decade of getting the football manager on release date, held back on the expenditure for a while. Finally succumbed to the temptation yesterday. Long time since I chronicled any of my saves. Planning on a journeyman save hopefully and will be sticking mostly to LLM rules. I usually holiday for 5 seasons and start unemployed, but went for 2 year holiday on this save. The Game setup The Manager Returned in June after 2 year holiday and went about the job center applying to all lower division clubs. Had plenty of interviews, but only 2 offers - Go Ahead Eagl

I've had as little dabble with [FM20] managing RB Salzburg in Austria and the game seems reasonably stable. (No crashes at all for me so far). I wasn't really feeling the save though so have decided to start a proper one. # I've started unemployed, with no badges and with just Sunday League previous history and all the Nordic Nations available have been activated. I played in some of these leagues in FM19 and even won some of them, but others will be completely new to me if and when I get there. Last year I started in Iceland, but in the Icelandic First Di -
As the dust settled with non-FM obligations last week, my old save beckoned. But, so did FM 17. In a moment of weakness I gave in to that annual, foul temptress. But memories of Sweden are still calling me. So, let’s try this again, shall we… It’s The Hope That Kills You As football fans, we can all relate to that sentiment. The "what could have been" moments. The heartbreak. The days when your overpaid, selfie-obsessed striker couldn't hit water if he fell out of a boat. Barbosa at the Maracana, 1950. Messi in the final of the Copa America, 2016. Baggio in the W

The Manager : Jan Novak Our man is a player from one of my former saves, with Banska Bystrica, in Slovakia. He was a striker that scored over 300 goals in all competitions for my all-conquering side. This is going to be his journey across Germany, France and England, trying to reach #1 on the Hall of Fame list.

After his cup win Joao Cheezey decided to step down from his job at UD Lanzarote. He was burned out and needed a break. With his share of the prize money and all his savings, he bought a small boat. He wanted to travel alongside Africa and all the way to the Cape of Good Hope. But after 2 days sailing.... there was a big thunder storm and his boat flipped over.... With his last power he got to the beach... For two weeks he was walking through a lot of sand, barely drinking and eating anything. Suddently a football almost hit his head..... He picke -
Hey guys, so this will be my second time writing in the FMCU, after the adventures of Nemanja Vidic last edition. Getting bored of the English leagues, I have decided to embark on what will hopefully be a long-ish journeyman save around several of the European leagues. I always do enjoy playing as a recently retired ex-player, and this time is no different. I have gone with one of my favourite CM legends from back in the day (although for the life of me I can't remember which team I signed him for), Kennedy Bakircioglü Loaded up a bunch of the top European leagues and a couple -
First stop. Third team to call me up for interview but first one to ring me back. So here we go... There's much room for improvements here. Currently in the black though even my grandma and her cats know this will get ugly really fast. Not that dire of a situation but board are ambitious. They're asking midtable position of me. When i saw this, i kinda understood why The Beavers under-performed. They've got two whole squads in preseason. Yikes. Few familiar names but not much to get excited abo

After reading @Makoto Nakamura epic career,I've been inspired by it and decided to do something similar but with a twist.Instead of going A to Z,I will be starting off in the weakest region (based off the rating of the main Continental Competition).This means I will be starting off in Oceania and working my through North America,Africa,Asia,South America before finishing off in Europe. This is now my playground First up is Oceania! -
Don't worry, if you've made it this far with your decoder ring, the whole thread isn't going to be written like that! So my Valencia "Nemesis" died a death, this might seem stupid but when I reread my previous Chelsea thread (where I had first come up with the idea) I noticed that I should have taken over Sevilla not Valencia and getting it wrong bugged me... I lost all interest in the save and just couldn't motivate myself to continue, thus back to the drawing board! After at least 10 minutes consideration and a trawl through the forums I have decided upon 2 saves, running concurren -
The River Danube is the second biggest river in Europe and it flows through ten countries and we have nine of the ten (Moldova isn't in the game) loaded up. Why the Danube and not the Volga? This is because the Volga is in one country and that is Russia and I wanted to give the save a bit of variety. I have also loaded up Czech Republic,Italy,Poland,Slovenia and Switzerland up as view only as they contain Drainage Basins from the Danube to give the save a bit of extra detail. I will be treating this save as a career and a AI experiment as I want to see how much better

Nobody's Global Tour Reading the story from @Makoto Nakamura has inspired me to do the same kind of game. I’m using editor files from @Timo61 and the Canadian Megapatch from @yellowsweatygorilla. Rules: My rules are real simple. Start in each country as low as possible and see what happens. I might stay until I win everything, but I might decide to leave early if I’m not having fun. In the end that’s what this is all about, right? I’m using downloaded tactics because I’m not very good at them. If anyone has any suggestions please let me know. I will gladly tak

Hello and sorry in advance for stopping my careers so abruptly lately! My FM19 and FM20 careers really didn't last long as I quickly grew tired of these versions of the game. In search for my love of the game I've gone back 2 versions to... ... inspired by the last career I really enjoyed, with MTK in Hungary, and also taking advantage of the extensive library of add-on leagues available for FM18, courtesy of Claassen. So I've decided to do a.... In case there's still someone who doesn't know what a Hexagon Challenge is, it consists in winning: the -
I chipped away once in Lithuania, I can chip twice They said it cannot be done, they said it shouldn't be done. But here we are, double Lithuanian/Baltic save on this forum. With Gariunai in full swing, I thought it could be fun to do a journeyman on FM19 that I didn't really play all that much. Add in, three custom made nations in Lithuania (very unfaithful to the real life pyramid for lols), Latvia (somewhat better but still relaxed) and Estonia (now this was actually realistic) and this is a recipe for a disaster! I am not quite sure what's the overall aim of this other tha
