    1995 Liverpool - an alternative reality.

    Started a Liverpool game on a retro 95/96 database. Have got to the January transfer window in the season and we're third in the league, 3 points behind leaders United so far, so things going alright so far. But, the best thing about this save is the ability to dream what might have been... I...

    FM Touch - how do I choose an affiiliate club to link with?

    Because it's not in the normal "Networking" section when going to make a board request. Or can't it be done?

    Fantasy football

    Apologies if this is elsewhere - anyone know whether there's an FMBase league or similar on the fantasy.premierleague.com website... If not, anyone interested in joining one?

    Heat map

    Just for interest because I wanted to see what the difference really was, I played the same game 5 times on Contain and looked at the heat map/average position for Sadio Mane in a Winger (S) role, in a Liverpool 4-2-3-1 formation and only changed the mentality but without any other team/player...

    Ideas for a short term challenge

    Need some ideas for a short sharp challenge...I'm thinking something like 5 - 7 seasons, very flexible as to where or who with, has anyone got any ideas? As an aside, it's a shame the 'manager stories' section isn't split between those deemed to be challenges (the Alex Ferguson challenge...

    Manager reputation

    Is there some sort of complicated algorithm that works out how your reputation increases through the game...I guess that winning the Premiership will enhance it more than winning the Slovakian 2nd division (other low reputation leagues are available), but how does that feed into your reputation...

    Keeping track of progress...

    Does anyone else keep records (spreadsheets etc) of teams/results/competitions won etc - particularly on a journeyman save - to keep track of various stats and how you and the teams do and improve throughout the period? If so - what sort of things do you keep track of?

    Tactics with few or no team instructions??

    So...I've seen loads of tactics on here which involve lots (10+) team instructions involved...so, are there any tactics out there with either no, or very few, instructions - the sort that are more-or-less successful purely on the basis of their formation and player roles or simply a change of...

    When to stop?

    I started a new game - unemployed, Sunday league experience. At the beginning of the game, I took the 30 highest ranked countries in Europe and split them into 10 groups of 3 with the intention of playing 3 countries at a time, then moving up the ladder when I got bored, at which point I...
