Anyone interested in doing a FM challenge? Preferably FM 08 but you can use older if you wish.
The Story: You are a football journeyman who has just retired from football and obtained the nessecery coaching badges to go into management. Knowing it will be difficult to find a job in europe you decide the best option is to learn your trade in a developing footballing nation.
The League: Most leagues or nations outside of europe. Somewhere like Asia, Oceania or Africa. Has to be small club with low reputation or a minor footballing nation (so you can't go Nigeria, Cameroon, Ghana etc) I was thinking somewhere like Hong Kong, Singapore, Mongolia, Cook Islands, Rwanda, India, El Salvador, Barbados etc you get the idea. (most nations become playable if you select 'upload all players from ...')
The Team: Any team you want (within guidelines above)
The Aim- To use your chosen team as a stepping stone into european management
- Or to improve your team/nation until they are a significant footballing power. (i.e take them to the World Cup etc)
- to win as many Trophies and honours as you can
- Ultimately become a World Reknowned manager
The Rules- you must set your past experience to 'automatic' or 'sunday league player'
- You must post screen shots of your transfers after each window
- You must post screen shots of the manager overview at each window and at the end of the season
- Use this thread to keep progress of your game
- Tactics/player discussion is allowed
- Once/If you move to a european club you need to sign at least 1 player based in the country you started your management career
Any questions/suggestions?
I
suggest loading conference england and/or italy C2 as a logical jump into european management.
Think personally I am going hong kong or a team from hong kong.
Good Luck !
