i.e. manager profile on the start date of the game, and a screenshot of the clubs information on the beginning date?
Also, what databases can we run?
i did ask for them didnt i?
ahh knew i forgot something, was going to suggest just english leagues with all playes from the home nations (england, scotland, wales, ieland, n. ireland)

oh wow, how did I miss them! Sorry Boskovic.
Regardless, I may start running this challenge along side my dafuge's challenge.

if the patch doesnt sort out the long term expections bug by the morning, ill give this a shot..
The updated beta patch already fixes this issue.
This sounds like a lot of fun. A lot like dafuge's challenge, but I think it'd be more engaging because the club is your own spawn. I think it'd be even better if you gave us graphics noobs a link to some guides on making kits and logos so that we can flesh out our new teams. </BLOCKQUOTE>
Team : Real London
Stadium : World Arena
Nickname : Renegade's
Reputation : 750
Media Prediction : 20th
Board Expectations : Stay Clear of relegation (2 year plan)
Note : Although I can assure you I did NOT add in staff / chairman in the editor, the club currently have : Chairman, Ass Man, Coach, Physio and 15 Players, all 16 years old, and all regens. I have provided proof to show you i did not sign anybody. Also, as you will see, the finances are £12,500 better off than i put in in the editor, this is due to Sponsership money. Again, proof is provided to show i didnt cheat.
Im going to really enjoy this challenge. Its a very similar thing i do with a buddy (you may have seen the thread in editors hideaway) where we play a network game with the same rules, except we both add ourselves in the game. (not as supermen either. I add him in with the stats i think he geuninely has, and he does the same for me)
If anybody is wishing to play this game, but cant be bothered, or doesnt know how to edit the DB, let me know and ill put this one on Rapidfileshare or something similar. I gave the club a rep of 750 to make it as hard as possible.
that black and gold kit is ugly as hell ha. the others are ok tho.
I had a feeling that would happen with the chairman and staff but didnt expect the players. Are they any good or just your standard useless Blue Square Regens.
Good luck with the challenge, im going to start mine tonight but i have a footie match first so will start after that.
i like how the 2 year plan is to stay clear of relegation. as long as you stay clear of relegation in the second year, you are ok. however, if you get relegated in the first year....

youll get the sack. you cant manage a team lower down than the blue square n/s
this is probably what your getting at but im a bit slow cause im nakered
After losing 7 Friendlies straight, I didnt expect much in the league, as the friendlies were all against teams lower than the Blue Square South!
However
Blue Square South
Real London 3 - 1 Hayes and Yeading
Real London 2 - 2 Maidenhead
Two great results!
7 Pre-season Transfers in, along with 6 Staff members (screenies of everything in end of season update).
Odd thing - Although in the editor i put the required '£3000' wage limit .. it started at a massive.... £0. Yup, nothing. As i signed players, the wage bill went up, then stopped at £280 pw. Pretty poor, as im spending around £1,600 pw on wages. Hope this doesnt become a problem with the board.
The one thing im REALLY disliking about doing this, is the fact that, as i've used the editor, any record I break isnt eligable for the FM08 Records thread. Even though they are perfectly legitimate records, as the only thing i've done is create new club/stadia.. im still not allowed to enter them. Its quite annoying, since i've already broken 2, and have 2 more for new catagories. Perhaps if this challenge clicks on, we can have an in-topic records thread with minimal records, (just the standard)...
