For a third year running the beast that is the British Steel returns to the challenge section for all of you that want to challenge yourself within the British Isles.
So what is the challenge: You have to win every trophy from England, Scotland, Wales, Northern Ireland and Ireland in any order you want. However you must only use British and Irish players!
With no on conquering this challenge over the last two years its proved to not be as easy as some people assume and we welcome every challenger to try and be the first!
The challenge is made a little easier by counting promotion from finishing second in the league, or via the playoffs as the title but this is your choice. Any success in Europe or with the national teams are just an added note on your history but won't count towards this challenge.
Below is a screenshot and I will add everyone who takes part to the challenge leaderboard and add your story so people can follow it easily. Once you've won a trophy be it league or cup, I will need to see a screenshot for it to count.
Rules:
- Only use British and Irish players
- Must start with Sunday League Reputation
- You may start at a club or start unemployed, your choice
- You MUST send me a screenshot of each trophy won for it to count
England
Fa Trophy, Blue Square North/South, Blue Square Premiership, Johnson's Paint trophy, nPower League Two, nPower League One, nPower Championship, League Cup, Community Shield, FA Cup, Premiership
Scotland
Challenge Cup, Division 3, Division 2, Division 1, League Cup, FA Cup, Premier League
Ireland

Northern Ireland

All the best to all the challengers....

BOWC
My sentiments exactly
keverend
Gendo
Ugh, I fear I'll be out of the race before I even start. Good job, BOWC, maybe you'll be the first person ever complete this thing!
Dan
Thats fine buddy just plow on
I'm feeling this Gendo! can't wait to get the game and try to catch him up!
BOWC
I have to admit I've been pretty much hooked onto this playing just about every minute I can for now. But reading through your past careers, once you get the game you would definitely be the man to beat in this challenge!
The career is still young though. I'm sure the hard parts are winning the better leagues without any foreign players. I'm going on a semi-hiatus for a while in a few days too so I'm just speeding through to try to get as many under the belt as possible
Shedender
Should go and purchase the game now.
Dan
Been working all day and now got my NPLQ exam tonight so can't
Dan
Uhtred
Dan
Okay buddy! as soon as you get the game and commence with the challenge let me know
Having purchased the game I am now on the leaderboard guys and in search of my first trophy and to catch BOWC! I have set up a thread as well so be sure to support me with your comments and views and follow the journey
algar_toon
Dan

KieranA91
Link to thread: http://sortitoutsi.net/careers/view/1655/a-heart-of-steel
Might not be up straight away as I'm just setting up now.
Maiden71
Good luck
KieranA91
Yes I've already begun to look into that, got injured in my first league game!
Fat Penlon
Although it doesn't quite have the same ring to it as the British Steel Challenge!
When I first seen the thread title, I thought it was going to be some sort of scenario involving Motherwell, the Sheffield teams & Scunthorpe or any other British team with a link to steel… I am disappointed and equally distanced from attempting difficult scenarios! Looks impressive though.
Footaemad
Good luck with your challenges, I may take a look at some of them myself.
SoulLimit
Gendo
In da rules:
Must start with Sunday League Reputation
You may start at a club or start unemployed, your choice
So you can join Rangers from the off.
SoulLimit
To dare is to Do
KieranA91
You can either post screenshots here or by PM to DanW19 or create a career thread and link it here, then you will get added to the leaderboard.
Gendo
Preferably not here. Either in your own thread on a straight PM to Dan works.
Dan
To dare is to Do
went to start the game last night and after my first friendly match i lost control of the club - wouldn't let me manage everything grey'd out...typical - i've posted the bug to FM - hopefully will get sorted
Dan
Okay mate, you've been added to the list anyway!
Guys good news and bad news.
Good News:
The leaderboards have been updated and we have plenty of challengers to the game already! So will be keeping an eye on how everyone gets on.
Bad News:
I won't be continuing my save, yes i know already But I started a save elsewhere and am enjoying that. There is a chance I will bring it to the forum soon
Everyone keep up your challenges though!
Dan
