Goals from Barbarouses and Thomas saw NZ make it two wins from two games with a 2-0 away win in the Phillippines. Kept the same 4-2-3-1 formation, but brought in Tuiloma and Wynne at full back replacing Roux and Doyle. Keat and Payne started in midfield while Thomas replaced Rojas out wide on...

New Zealand 2-1 Nicaragua (h) Friendly. Chris Wood x2. Two Chris Wood goals helped NZ to a 2-1 win over Central American opponents Nicaragua as the All Whites picked up a morale boosting victory in the first of their Autumn internationals. With the players looking tired at this early stage in...

After searching the globe for potential new players I have added quite a few young, uncapped players eligible for NZ into my national pool of around 120 players. Most of those are still too young and/or inexperienced for the time being, but some will get a chance this season. My first squad of...

June 2010. New Zealand were knocked out of the 2010 FIFA World Cup in South Africa at the group stage, their first World Cup finals appearance since 1982, following three very respectable draws against Italy, Paraguay and Slovakia. Despite failing to qualify for the knock-out stages, The All...

Quick update before a full write up at the weekend... Lost 6-2 to Mexico in the Gold Cup final after beating Honduras in the SF and Canada in the QF. Also drew 1-1 with Holland in a friendly international.

Something else that I've noticed is the improvement in the Curacao national team. As I'm running the Dutch league they have also managed to recruit dual national players and have greatly improved their squad also under the management of Patrick Kluivert. They reached the final of the Caribbean...

2016 was a very busy year that ended with Surinam lifting the Caribbean Championship Cup and qualifying for the 2017 Gold Cup after beating Curacao 3-1 in the final. 10 games were played in the competition in all as Surinam successfully navigated their way through three qualifying group stages...

Great start winning all six of the autumn internationals, including a 2-0 home win against Trinidad & Tobago. Managed to recruit a very talented squad including Vorm and Vermeer in goal, Bruma, van Dijk and van Aanholt in defence, de Jong, Anita and Wijnaldum in midfield and Emnes and Babel up...

I did something similar with a club called Belfast United but with Northern Irish players. Started in the Scottish Championship and win promotion through the playoffs in my first season to the SPL. Managed to sign the bulk of the NI team but i did allow myself to sign foreigners too.

Gullit, Rijkaard, Davids, Seedorf, Kluivert, Reiziger, some of the greatest Dutch footballers to have played over the past 25 years. But it could have been so different. All of these players have links to Suriname, a South American country that belongs to CONCACAF. Imagine if these players and...

With Wales successful in becoming an independent country and deciding to breakaway from Great Britain, UEFA have put pressure on the FA to eject the six Welsh based clubs in the Football League and non-league pyramid. Merthyr Town and Colwyn Bay put up little fight and officially apply to join...

What if... Celtic and Rangers moved to the Football League? What if... New Zealand moved to Asia? What if... Swansea, Cardiff, Wrexham, Newport, Merthyr and Colwyn Bay moved back to Wales?

Hi All, I'm new to this forum but love reading the career stories and would like to start my own. I am still playing FM14 at the moment (FM15 is on my Xmas list!) and kind of find it hard to continue playing a save for more than a week as I get distracted and want to start something else. I...

I have saves for both the Canada and New Zealand national teams, and I thought about creating an international cup competition on the editor- The Commonwealth Nations Cup. I use the FM14 Editor quite a lot but I've never worked out how to create a new international competition. There would be a...
