    Answered Laptop for FM20

    Can anyone tell me if this laptop would comfortably run FM20? I’m wondering about the integrated graphics card, although I have never played with 3D in the past. https://www.laptopsdirect.co.uk/hp-250-core-i7-8565u-8gb-256gb-ssd15.6-inch-full-hd-windows-10-home-laptop-6mp37es/version.asp

    Building rivalries

    Just curious to see if anyone knows what it takes to create rivalries with other clubs that are displayed in the Club - General page? I know competitive rivalries can be formed in the game as I've seen them from custom databases where I've simmed far into the future, but I've never noticed any...

    No Brexit?

    I'm playing a save with Newcastle in September 2019, and so far I haven't to my knowledge had any messages regarding Brexit... normally don't you get a message saying when Article 50 has been triggered and then another when the UK actually leaves? I've checked that the UK is still in Europe by...

    Players for Newcastle 2nd season (back in Prem)

    Coming to the end of my first season now and I'm currently 17pts clear of second with 3 games to play so I am planning for next year. Looked at the budget for next season and I have (somehow) £65m to spend and £500k p/w for wages. Here is my current squad: And here is my current tactic that...

    Decent defensive corner set ups?

    I am conceding lots of goals from corners, 5 from 5 games this season IIRC. Does anyone have any successful defensive corner set ups? Is man or zonal marking generally considered better this year? It's getting frustrating being statistically better throughout a game only to be undone by a set...

    York City stadium question

    Does anybody know the situation in game regarding a potential new stadium for York? I know in last year's game they had one being built, but there is nothing listed in the facilities screen this year, I presumed due to real life complications it had been cancelled. However in the first season...

    Bristol City 3rd season, 1st in Premiership away tactic help

    Hi all, I've achieved back to back promotions with Bristol City and am now in the Premiership. I'm 9 games in and sitting in 9th, which I'm happy with as I have a squad which is woefully unprepared for the Premier League. What I'm not happy with, however, is my away form. As you can see from the...

    Tutoring a youngster with 20 determination?

    I've got this 16 year old Center Back in my youth squad at Newcastle, looks like with the right progression he could be top class, 17 Heading, 15 Marking, (11 Tackling might need some work), good physicals which will only improve. He has 15 Leadership, 14 Bravery and 14 Teamwork which are good...

    Cheap Championship CB - Second season with Bristol City

    Looking for a cheap central defender for my newly promoted Bristol city side. I have £3.5m to spend and 15k/pw for wages, but the cheaper the better really. Preferably right footed too, as I have a good left sided Cb already. Thanks! :)

    Bristol City stadium question

    So I just started a new save as Bristol City as I wanted a semi-low league team with potential to manage. It's going well so far, top of the league in October, however one of the things I'm weary of with clubs in League 1 and below is stadium size, specifically upgrading it. Atm the 14,660 seat...

    Should I sign Thiago?

    I'm half way through the 3rd season as Newcastle (in game date is 30th December 2016), won the PL last season and I'm top again now. I can sign Thiago on a free as his contract is up in the summer, and I've negotiated with his agent to this: The signing on fee is huge, but I'm OK with that...

    Should I accept this offer?

    I've just finished the second season as Newcastle and I won the league. Ayoze Perez did really well for me as you can see from the screenshots. Bayern offered about £20m for him but I've managed to push that up to £39m up front with 30% of profit from next sale (which I doubt will ever amount...

    Players complaining of under achieving?

    Currently in December in the first season with Crewe, who're predicted to finish 23rd in League 1. I'm currently 9th, but recently 3 of my players have been complaining that they think the club is under achieving, does anybody know why this is? Seems a bit strange since the board are happy with...

    Data Editor - Scouting knowledge help needed

    I'm trying to make a couple of scouts in the data editor for a bigger project I'm working on, but have a small problem. I do not know how to add countries to a scouts 'knowledge' section, so when I test load a game obviously scouts only have knowledge from their native country. Can anybody help...

    What does a 'Consortium takeover' entail?

    I've received a message saying that a Consortium is planning taking over my club. It got me thinking, what does that actually do? I'm aware of what a Tycoon takeover involves, pumping ridiculous amounts of money into the club i.e Chelsea or Man City IRL. I'm also aware that a 'local businessman'...
