To be fair, it's probably not beyond the means of semi-pro Northern Irish clubs to identify, approach and offer trials to released Premiership players without sending scouts to look at them. Of course, the trial itself isn't simulated in FM because of the processing overheads involved in constantly having AI players on trial, but it's a reasonable assumption that that's what would be going on in the real life equivalent of this scenario

Have to disagree with you arrogantio, lets say you're a 19 yr old player just released by Fulham, as an academy player all your family live in West London are you realy going to consider signing a p/t contract from a club in N.Ireland?
Consider the situation, you have to move for a wage of no more that say £75pw & also find a day job just to make ends meet you're just not going to move, instead you would try & find a club in London. It is this aspect of real life which I feel should be simulated in the game.

| I know, which is why I wrote the "an abstraction" comment. I assume that everyone born in British overseas territories is automatically eligible for British nationality. The game simplifies this by giving players from such places an English 2nd nationality by default, a sort of a "footballing passport".

This is where FM needs a football club atlas I feel to help illustrate scounting regions more, especially for LLM. I dont feel scouting should be limited down to borders but distance from the club.
I'm currently playing Bath City, it doesn't seem logical to me that I can scout the whole of England right up to the Scottish border but can't travel a couple of hundred kilometres to scout into Wales.

Ignoring llm rules, the player actually always has the advantage over the AI in signing frees in the database depending on how much patience they have in terms of clicking names to see their attributes. Just type "no club" into the search box and you will get everyone thats on a free regardless of whether you should know about them or not!
