SMSL's Ultimate Challenge (FM08) - Give Youth A Chance

ChrisBilly07 · 10-24-2007, 05:01 PM

Pld 4 with my Hendon side - weve been thrashed twice but we somehow scraped a 1 - 0 win over Havent and Waterloovile, and also a 0 - 0 draw against another side.

Im getting absouloutly battered in every game and i think this challenge is by far the toughest ever created

The first season is definatly your hardest, i think if i can stay up this season and hopefully get some decent youngsters and build from there

I've decided I'm gonna play my Dafuge game until the first patch is released, then I'm diving straight into this one. I'd start it now, but I know I'd only want to restart once the patch is out...

Im going to do the same as Betterspud, although i actually think this challenge may be impossible.

12 games, 3 points, bottom of the league, NINE red cards, 33 yellows, players constantly knackered and injured...

I'm doing this on FM07 with AFC Telford - the squad comes with only one coach - no Physio, can I hire one?

Good to see this back, looking forward to seeing how well everyone does compared to FM 06.

What happens if you take control of Merthyr Tydfil, Welsh players only?

I wondered the same. that would mean it's now possible to add an extra challenge to the game and develop the Welsh national team as well... (a la Ter's San Marino challenge.)

Anyone know for sure?

I was thinking of posting a Welsh "Double" challenge, you could manage in the Welsh Premier or any of the Welsh clubs that play in England. Depends what sort of game I feel like playing though, will probably start a proper game when the patch is officially out.

If you have a 2nd nationaility and your youth system generates a player fron that nation you must immediately sell him as you cannot play him

I think this challenge is great but I really don't understand this.

You get to keep youth players who are English.

You get to keep youth players who are foreign.

The only youth players you can't keep are youth players that are from the nation that is listed as your 2nd Nationality .
