Finances

2020 year in my Wrexham, 3rd season in Championship and so far we're in the top after almost half of season. I've build this team from 5th league and... i have no idea what to do. As you can see, my finances are crap. Last season avarage sponsorship for teams in Championship was about 3 mln € - mine was about 700k. I need to sell at least one of the best players on my team every season to stay barely alive and the projections looks awful.

I wonder if I make it into Premier League will this help? Surely will get awful lot of money just for being there, buy man... I hope they do something about finances of lower leagues, it's absolutely demoralizing you can't do anything and it's not realistic at all.

woot, woot!
didn't play the last one that much, but thought it was so cool that it was on linux so i bought it anyway.
this will be a bit tougher sell. and the time that would have to be spent adjusting the everton players stats, and especially coaches / scouts, etc for realism (cough cough) will have to be taken into account.
conspired against by a confederacy of dunces.

i wonder what the advantage of being a tactical manager is.
tracksuit manager allows you to give yourself pretty much a 5 star rating for any training attribute. why would anyone give that up and play tactical when it gives you nothing

Because they don't really like tweaking training schedules. I usually let my assistant/coaches deal with it, and pick my assistant/coaches based on the fact that it's going to be a large part of what they're used for.

My current FM14 save is going pretty well. I just managed to get Hednesford into the Football League from Skrill North. It took me more seasons than I would've liked but it's difficult when your club has half the wage budget of everyone else in the league you're in! I got promoted from Skrill North in my first season with some decent loan signings, but it took 4 seasons to get out of the Skrill Premier (although we did win the double in that season; League and FA Trophy). Hopefully we can stay up but it's gonna be a difficult campaign with the squad only just turning pro...

In my Hednesford save, we managed to survive our first season in League Two with a mid-table finish. Very respectable given our circumstances. During the transfer window before our second League Two season I was able to sign veteran journeymen Danny Graham (Sunderland IRL) and Steve Sidwell (Stoke IRL) as well as a not-so-young-anymore Tyler Blackett (Man Utd IRL). Along with some good loan signings, we've had a great start to the season and are currently 2nd in the league =P

training schedules have nothing to do with the quality of your coaches though. your assistant manager isnt going to find 4.5+ star coaches for you, so why would you be a tactical manager and let someone else train your players when you can be a free 5 star coach yourself.

I'm still in my 1st season in the German 4th tier, but we somehow got to the last 16 of the DFB-Pokal! We beat FSV Frankfurt 2-0 and came from behind against Cologne three times to win on penalties. Then in the third round we played well and lost just 1-0 to Hertha Berlin, a 1.Bundesliga side.

We got to play all the matches at home, and all the matches got televised, so that alone gave the club 1.5m pounds in revenue. Gate receipts+prize money put the total revenue from the cup near 2.5 million. Now in the winter break, we have 13 games left and I'm in 4th, 3 points off 1st. If we don't get promoted this season we'll definitely get promoted next season when I can actually get some players that don't suck.

I think I'm sticking with FM14 for now. I haven't played in a good week or so anyways.

I don't mind how they changed creativity to vision, but I'm really bothered by how they're still listing the stat alphabetically so that vision is now in between teamwork and workrate. It's one of those little things that screws up your first impressions of a player. I was looking at some of the new attributes and they seem pretty similar to last year's for the most part.

I'm reliving my youth staying up till 6:30am playing on Football Manager again.
Its glorious.

For me, they have put so many little improvements in this game that the whole thing just comes together beautifully, whereas the last few years it's seemed really disjointed. I can now watch whole games at normal speed without getting frustrated at the unrealistic graphics, thanks to the new animations.

Obviously there's some bugs and stuff but this game is brilliant.
RIP Meatloaf <3

Anyone picked up FM15? How is it so far?

Also on my 15-year long FM14 save... just had this brutal month of April.

I recently moved to Germany so I can't buy it right now, but I will try to have my brother gift it to me from France. Anyone here from Germany knows if that works?

No idea about getting it as a gift sorry. I bought a FM14 code last year and activating that is no problem so I guess the gift would work as the buyer of the game is located elsewhere.

So where do you usually buy this code? is it like a steam code? sorry if I sound like a noob, I never had to do anything like this haha

I got FM15 but I feel lost without knowing all the wonderkids to buy

Memphis Depay seems like a sure buy on any save though. Also, it seems wingers in general have better stats now from my first impression, which is good because often retraining AMCs to wingers was the superior approach in FM14.
