THE ULTIMATE FOOTBALL MANAGER CHALLANGE



THE IDEA OF THIS CHALLENGE IS TO PIT MY WITS AGAINST SOME OF THE TOUGHEST CHALLENGES I HAVE FOUND ON THE INTERNET BY PEOPLE THAT PLAY THIS INCREDIBLE GAME. I AM A VETERAN FM PLAYER AND HAD MIXED RESULTS DURING CHALLENGES SO IM NOT SAYING I AM THE BEST BUT I DO LIKE A CHALLENGE.

I SHALL BE DOING ONE CHALLENGE AT A TIME (NO ORDER) AND I SHALL POST MY RESULTS FROM WHAT I FIND.
I DO HAVE A FEW RULES FOR MY PERSONAL QUEST AND THESE ARE AS FOLLOWED:

THE RULES

​

  • IF YOU GET SACKED - YOU FAIL
  • IF YOU GET JOB OFFERS ALWAYS REJECT
  • IF INTERNATIONAL MANAGEMENT OFFERS COME IN YOU MAY EXCEPT - OPTIONAL
  • NO DATABASE PLAYER CHEATS,FORMATIONS ARE OK,GENERAL UPDATES ARE OK ALSO

THE CHALLENGES

SO HERE ARE THE CHALLENGES THAT I THINK CAN BE DONE...

​

  • PORTSMOUTH - FROM WINNING THE F.A CUP IN 2008 AND FINISHING 8TH IN THE EPL, POMPY NOW FIND THEMSELFS IN LEAGUE TWO AND A MEER SHADOW OF THERE FORMER GLORY. WITH A 5MIL TRANSFER BUDGET AND 46K W/BUDGET ALSO A MEDIA PREDICATION OF 2ND THIS SHOULD BE A BREEZE BUT THIS CHALLENGE IS MORE ABOUT SPEED THAN SKILL.
    LOSING ABOUT 4MIL A SEASON AND NOT HAVING THE PULL ON PLAYERS THIS NEEDS TO HAPPEN QUICK. THE CHAMPIONSHIP IS A MUST ASAP!


  • COVENTRY - A TEAM THAT ALSO ONCE GRACED THE EPL AND HAD THE LIKES OF ROBBIE KEANE,DION DUBLIN AND GARY MCCALISTER ON THERE BOOKS NOW SIT IN LEAGUE ONE AND ARE IN DEEP DEEP TROUBLE. A MEDIA PREDICTION OF 24TH IS THE FIRST TASK BUT STARTING THE SEASON ON -10 POINTS AND 41MIL IN DEBT YOU ARE NOT GOING TO GET MUCH SUPPORT. I THINK PROMOTION IS A LONG WAY OFF BUT KEEPING THE TEAM UP,CUP RUNS MAY TURN FORTUNE AROUND


  • BOAVISTA - THIS SLEEPING GIANT OF FOOTBALL NEEDS TO BE WOKEN! A CLUB THATS 111YRS OLD AND ONLY WON THE TOP TITLE ONCE ISNT AS BAD AS WINNING IT ONLY IN 2001 AND 13 YEARS LATER PLAYING IN THE BOTTOM 3RD TIER OF PORTUGESE FOOTBALL AND 7MIL IN DEBT. THE PRESS SEEM TO THINK YOU CAN MAKE IT OUT NO PROBLEM BUT THE CHALLENGE IS RESTORING THEM INTO THE TOP. MONEY ISNT THERE BUT THERE IS A CORE OF TALENT


  • LEEDS UNITED - ANOTHER BIG CLUB THAT ISNT HITTING POTENTIAL. FROM PLAYING IN THE EPL AND CHAMPIONS LEAGUE SEMI FINALS THEY HAD A YOYO HISTORY SEEING THEM FALL INTO LEAGUE ONE BEFORE SITTING STAGNENT IN THE CHAMPIONSHIP. MEDIA PREDICTION OF 11TH BUT A TRIGGER HAPPY BOARD THAT WANT THE PLAYOFFS. A DECENT BUDGET OF 6MIL BUT THAT DOESNT BUY ALOT OF QUALITY IN THAT LEAGUE. A GOOD CF AND DF AND PLAYOFFS SHOULD BE A GIVEN

​

  • WELLINGTON PHOENIX- A NEW TEAM IN THE AFC,THEY HAVE HUGH POTENTIAL BUT NOT ALOT OF FUNDS. THE CHAIRMAN IS PATIENT BUT BOTTOM IS A NO!! NOT ALOT OF DECENT TALENT TO BUILD ON AND TRANSFER RULES TO OBIDE BY. THIS WILL BE HARD,HAVING THE AUSTRAILIAN DB LOADED WONT MAKE MUCH DIFFERNCE BUT WINNING A TEAMS FIRST TITLE IN THERE HISTORY....CAN WE


  • SAN MARINO - THIS IS A BIG CHALLANGE I CAME ACROSS AND INVOLVES WINNING PROMOTION FROM THE DEPTHS OF ITATIAN FOOTBALL,MAKING IT ALL THE WAY TO SERIE A AND ALSO DEVELOPING YOUTH IN YOUR TEAM,GETTING THE SAN MARINO INTERNATIONAL JOB AND MAKING AGO OF IT....PHEW. GOT ALL THAT. THERE ISNT A BIG POOL OF TALENT FOR THE NATIONAL SIDE SO THE YOUTH YOU DEVELOPE DECIDE THE FUTURE OF THE COUNTRY. SOUNDS COOL AND I SHALL LOOK FORWARD TO THIS ONE


SO THERE ARE MY TASKS TO GET ME THROUGH TO FM15, I SHALL POST MY RESULTS AS I GO ALONG. PLEASE FEEL FREE TO JOIN ME ON THIS AND POST ASWELL, ALSO IF ANYONE HAS ANY CHALLENGS TO ADD PLEASE TO.

WELLINGTON PHOENIX - STARTED MY FIRST CHALLENGE. CLEARED OUT ALL THE OLD STAFF FOR FREE ALSO INSTALLED A YOUTH MANAGEMENT SETUP. BIG OFFER PUT IN FOR MY STAR STRIKER BUT MANAGED TO HOLD ONTO HIM. THE PLAYERS DONT REALLY WANT TO SIGN NEW CONTRACTS EITHER SO A VERY IMPORTANT SEASON.
 
WELLINGTON PHOENIX - FIRST SEASON DONE. NOT ANYTHING TO SHOUT HOME ABOUT BUT I DID FLUTTER WITH 5TH PLACE BIT TILL MY FORM DIPPED. GOT A NEW CONTRACT,SIGNED UP MY TOP YOUTH TALENT TO LONG TERM CONTRACTS ALSO. THE 31K LEAGUE WAGE CAP WILL TAKE SOME GETTING SOME USED TOO.
 
Thinkinbg of getting a new challenge up and running,as im just about sacked in my present alphabet challenge at present.Any ideas guys who i could go?
 
DID YOU DO THE SV HORN CHALLENGE ASWELL MATE? I GOT SACKED FROM THAT ASWELL. IVE JUST STARTED MY WELLINGTON CHALLENGE BUT FEEL FREE TO START ONE OF MINE FROM ABOUT OR A NEW ONE I SHALL ADD TO THE LIST. ALWAYS LOVE A CHALLENGE,BUILDING YOUTH AND MAKING HISTORY. I PREFER TEAMS THAT HAVE NEVER EVER WON ANYTHING.
