What about the players that are brought to the club during the holiday year?

The club is still active in the transfer market during the holiday year while you are unemployed, I noticed this in my challenge.

Sounds like an interesting idea, could be quite difficult though. I didn't get any youth players at Braintree for years.

Scoham

Clubs that have never played at that level (so check their history, must never have played in a playable league before), or just an unplayable team at the start of the game?

I'm having to do a similar thing with my Saxemara squad, their finances are so damn bad i've got 10 players in the starting line up under 20 :eek:. They're mostly greys too

BobARC

Hmm, it seems like quite a good idea but i think maybe it will be too difficult. Still i like a challenge and may just be tempted to try this one.

Saxonator

That grey would be a god in Saxemara

BobARC

Perhaps you could include a rule which allows you to sign unattached newgens or other clubs' players under 18? This would still make it very challenging but not impossible as it seems now.

If anybody manages to get any serious points in this challenge I'll be mightily impressed.

Good luck to all playing :thup:

Now this IS a challenge :thup:.

In the first year of my Dafuge challenge, I signed a grey left sided midfielder for the firs time. He did pretty well in Conference South and even better in Conference National. I even played him a bit in League 2 but then he was gone.

I asked questions at the time about the relative PA of grey players compared to notmal players and the response was not good.

There are a few excellent challenges knocking around at the moment, (so I am keeping quiet about my ideas for my own), and I am sure to give one of them a go if I ever finsh Dafuge's challenge .

To be honest, although I am not giving up, I am pretty much resigned to the fact that FM07 will probably be out before I complete it.

By the way, I totally agree that unsigned newgens should NOT allowed to be signed.

Good luck SMSL.
