Welcome to my 6th story on FM Base, which will be a one-club save with a pub team. Seriously - an actual pub team.
Bruno’s Magpies are a team in the top division of Gibraltar, founded in 2013 and named after Bruno’s Bar in the Ocean Village.
Since being founded, they’ve gone on a crazy journey which culminated in them finishing 4th last season.
That 4th place finish means that they will be playing in European competition for the first time in the 2022/23 season - surely making them the first pub team in Europe!
This article from RTE explains everything you need to know about this crazy story https://www.rte.ie/sport/soccer/2022/0621/1306077-from-pub-team-to-europe-brunos-magpies-soar/
So my objectives for the save are:

So my objectives for the save are:
- Make Magpies the best team in Gibraltar
- Get to a European Group Stage Competition
- Get to the Champions League Group Stage
If we achieve all of that, then we’ll see what happens.
There are just 20 League games a season in Gibraltar so that means I will hopefully get through things much quicker than a save in England where 50+ games a season are usually the norm.
So we’re taking over a literal pub team with aspirations of going to the very top.
I have no idea how far we can take the club, but you can’t get a more perfect story for a Football Manager save!
