Default Scottish Challenge

This is a combination of cammy_rangers' and davie's challege from last year.

This is by no means my own challenge, however i believe that this is a very good challenge and I have re-written both challenges together, to create the (what I feel) better version of these challenges.

-----------------------------------------------
-----------------------------------------------

The Aim

To take any Scottish Third Division club to SPL and Champions League glory using only British players

The Rules

Load a game with Scottish leagues only, with third division and above selected, a medium database and attribute masking enabled. Load additional players from Britain

Add yourself as a manager with past experience set to 'automatic' and select any team in the Scottish Third Division that you wish to manage.

You may not move clubs unless you are sacked, in that case you may take over another third division club, or start the challenge again.

International management in not allowed.

All signings must be British and all parent/feeder clubs must be British.


Rules for this Thread

Player naming is allowed. (This is a warning for those of you who do not wish to see this)

Discussion of tactics is allowed. (This is another warning for those of you who do not wish to see this)

Screenshots for anything are encouraged.

Could you please post a screenshot of your manager profile as soon as you take over at a new club.

Progress of your club should be documented using this thread, we want to hear the story of your club all the way through. Please keep us updated, even if you are doing really badly.

At the end of every season, could everyone post some kind of season review, including at least a screenshot of a league table. Make the title of your update bold to make it easier for people to see where the season reviews are in the thread.

How to Post a Screenshot

1. While in FM, press the 'Prt Sc' button (usually next to F12 on your keyboard).

2. Open an image editing program such as Paint and paste the image

3. Save the file as a JPEG

4. Upload the image to an image hosting website such as Photobucket or Imageshack

5. Post the direct Url to the image here.

End of season one update - 2007/08

Roared to the Irn Bru League Division Three title remaining undefeated all season. The cups saw us dumped out early on - a first round exit in the CIS Cup to Morton, a third round exit in the Challenge Cup to Morton once again, and after an admirable draw at Broadwood, Clyde defeated us in the replay of the third round of the Scottish Cup.

Made quite a few signings, mostly free transfers. Money was wisely spent on goalkeeper James Baird, who was then appointed captain of the team at the young age of 22. The fans were generally unhappy with the only other money signing, Josh Wright, who at £28,000 was a big disappointment. Mostly appearing as a substitute, he failed to score in his first 13 games and spent the majority of the season in the U19s, where he scored 15 times. Given a couple of run outs after we'd already won the league, however, he scored twice and set up another two. This got the fans off of his back.

Managed to get Celtic as a parent team, and took the best that their reserves had to offer. Simon Ferry, Mike McGlinchley, Scott Cuthbert and Michael McGovern were all regular starters and averaged 7.24, 7.64, 7.29 and 7.36 in the league respectively. I shall most definitely be trying to renew their loans for next season.

So at the end of the season the squad looks like this. It will need to be improved somewhat for the Second Division, as it lacks significantly in terms of overall depth.

But I'm confident of a mid-table finish and possibly pushing for a playoff spot in 2008/09.
