Greetings all, hope you are well, and thank you for checking out my career!
As the thread title suggests, In this save, I'm going to be attempting the Regionnaire Challenge.
The Aim: To implement a transfer policy of only using players born/raised in a certain geographic region. Much like Bilbao's policy of using only Basque players.
My Area: I live in Cumbria, in North-West England, however, I spend a lot of time just across the border in South-West Scotland, so I will be limiting myself to players and clubs either side of the Solway Firth, in either the counties of Cumbria or Dumfries & Galloway.
This is a pretty big catchment in terms of area, however, both counties are largely rural and thus are sparsely populated. Carlisle is the only city in either. (and that is only a small city with a population of around 70,000) This will make finding players of sufficient quality a challenge.
There are only five options club-wise in the vanilla database, so I have downloaded Leo Messi's excellent level 10 English database, as well as a Scottish extension that I have loaded down to tier six to enable the South of Scotland league. These expansions give me the following options;
I won't be limiting myself to one club, I will be able to hop between them, however, I must enforce what I am calling, the Solway development mantra upon whichever side I am managing at the time.
I shall be starting off unemployed, with no coaching badges and a Sunday league reputation, we shall see where that gets me!

Yes, after interviewing for a couple of different jobs, I have opted to start my career with Wigtown & Bladnoch in the South of Scotland League.
Wigtown is in the South-West corner of Dumfries & Galloway, at the mouth of Wigtown Bay on the Solway Firth. Bladnoch is a small village around a mile outside Wigtown itself. The town is famed for being ‘Scotlands Book Town’, with its abundance of book shops and annual literary festival.
The football club plays its home games at Trammonford Park, which has a capacity of around 900.
The Reds board expects me to guide the club to a top-half finish within the South of Scotland League this season, something I think is more than achievable. We also take part in no fewer than four cup competitions, so silverware could be a possibility.
The SoSL consists of twelve teams, all aiming to finish top. Being champions doesn't guarantee promotion here, the winners of the South of Scotland League, West of Scotland League, and the East of Scotland League, all play off for a single promotion berth to the Lowland League. So getting out of tier six won't be easy.
Here is my initial squad, as you can see it is entirely populated by newgens. Most of whom were born outside of my Solway area, so I will need to let them go and rebuild. This will be made more difficult by the fact there is no reserve or youth teams, so there is no talent to fall back on there.
Wish me luck, I'm going to need it!
