British Steel Challenge -- FM17

In this career I attempt to complete the British Steel Challenge, a challenge where you have to win all the trophies in England, Scotland, Ireland, Northern Ireland, and Wales using only British players. Its an extrememly difficult challenge but one I'm hoping to complete.



I started as un-employed and quickly got offered the job at Dundela in the Northern Ireland Premiere Intermediate League which is the third tier in Northern Ireland. I took over just after the first pre-season game of the year.



Dundela have a pretty good set-up and I only brought in a few players, listed below



Next post will be the first season review.

First season is in the books! We won the league on the final day of the season and also added the Intermediate Cup to complete the season double!





Overall the season went really well. I was disappointed to be knocked out of the other Cups though. Definitely should have won the Toals Steel & Sons Cup but was knocked out in the Semis by a reserve side..same side I beat to reach the final of the Intermediate Cup so its all good, got them back!

Definitely looking forward to my next season in the Championship!
