AITOR HERRERA IS BACK!!!!!!
(and so is Klippybo lol)
Hello everyone, I am Klippybo and this is my first foray into football manager for a couple of years and also therefor my first attempt at a story for a few years (eek). Hopefully some of my old FMbase pals are still here to have a read and hopefully I will pick up a few more along the way.
The reason for the disappearing act? My laptop died and I never got round to buying a new one but my new girlfriend so kindly got me a copy of FM17 for Xmas and has told me I can use her laptop - she really doesn't know what she has let herself in for!!!!! She also got me tickets to see Tom Petty & the Heartbreakers at Hyde Park in July so I have to be good until then so the story should keep going for a while!!!
This story will be about the infamous Aitor Herrera - one of the best regens ever - managing his beloved Athletic Bilbao in a quest to match what he did as a player and find his true successor at the club.

ABOUT THE PLAYER/WRITER - KLIPPYBO
Played Football Manager/Championship Manager since 1994 right up until FM15 which I found far too easy which put me off the game a bit. I have been doing online stories since FM12 (I think) and have had stories with Aberdeen, Newcastle (my beloved), Atalanta, Castel di Sangro and Hartlepool amongst others as well as inventing the Champions League Challenge with my good friend Stonecold. All of my stories tend to last at least 10 seasons so I am not one for chopping and changing.
However it was my first story with Athletic Bilbao that really took off which was mainly due to the fact that I got the amazing regen, Aitor Herrera, in the first youth intake at the age of 15. He was still in my first team at the age of 40 and playing for Spain and had won and accomplished everything!!!!

ABOUT AITOR HERRERA
As mentioned above Aitor was my best ever regen and was a little celebrity in the FM world. He even appeared on the Sky Sports News website in the Athletic Bilbao squad list for some reason at one point. He played over 1000 games for me at Bilbao in the AMC position mainly and scored hundreds of goals, winning every individual and team trophy there is to win. When the story ended I think he was 40, player/coach, and still in the Spanish national side!

Right so I am away to pick up my daughter and will load the game up in anger when I return in an hour and will do my first posts with the game etc. I should add that I haven't even loaded a save up other than to check that my player faces and kits etc have worked. Hopefully Aitor and I can discover our old magic together in this new FM17 World!!!!
