We are happy to announce the release of v2.0 of the file enabling Maltese and Gozitan leagues in FM20.3.0, making changes for the January transfer window and for the official 20.3.0 update.
Apart from the playable league files, this download also includes:
a) Over 2,900 Maltese and Malta-based player cut-out faces
b) Logos for all Maltese clubs and competitions
c) Kits for all Maltese clubs
Thanks to Gerald Vella for the great work with the kits, and to the makers of the Cut-out Faces and Metallic Logo megapacks for the faces and logos respectively.
When you start a new game, you will be asked to choose one of the 2 Maltese files. The file named FM20 Malta v2.0.fmf will give you the regular Maltese data, while the FM20 Malta v2.0 professionals.fmf file will see all the clubs set as professional to allow a wider choice of foreign players and giving you a better chance to progress in your career. You can only choose one of these options: the choice is yours'!
Information about this file:
Data is up-to-date as of 23/02/2020
Over 30,000 individual data edits including but not restricted to:
• Around 100 existing persons edited to update everything from abilities to reputation, from personal information (date of birth, hair colour etc) to contract status, from player position to transfer and history information, and much more;
• Over 1,100 new persons added so that ALL clubs have a full squad complement, including youth team players and backroom staff where known, and also referees;
• All 67 clubs massively overhauled to update everything from reputation to youth stadiums, club histories to player and goalkeeper kit colours for all clubs, and also affiliate clubs;
• All 67 clubs containing this season’s REAL players and backroom staff for maximum accuracy
• Realistic competitions, including the real-life set-up and rules for all 4 senior Maltese divisions, the 2 Gozitan divisions and Sections A to E of the Youth FA competitions, as well as a semi-realistic Gozitan youth league;
• National characteristics so that wages and transfer values are as close to real-life values as possible and also to regulate future transfer movement from foreign countries and regions in a realistic manner;
• 30+ Awards added to mimic real-life awards, some of which can be voted for by the user;
• 100+ Derbies added to mimic real-life rivalries;
• 10 Stadiums added and assigned to clubs in order to correctly represent as closely as possible the real-life situation, within the limits of the editor;
• 10 Media Sources (Radio & TV stations, websites and TV programmes) added to attempt to present realistic media coverage.
As can be clearly seen, this was a massive undertaking and lots of time went into the research and preparation for this file. We’d like to thank all the persons who provided us with assistance and information with regards to data gathering. BurnCM4X from the official FM forum created the league format and other related issues, while drinu and mons collected and added all the remaining edits. If you notice any glaring mistakes, feel free to contact us so that the data may be corrected in future releases

Still gutted that I can't get this as a 'bolt-on' for FM Touch ios

One question, do I need to use the cutouts or the logos if I already keep up to date with both of the mega packs?
On a side note I didn't even know about the island of Gozo, now I do
Thanks again
mons
I'm Gozitan myself, so wash your dirty mouth out
If you've got the respective packs up-to-date, then you only really the kits and possibly the competition logos (for the handful of new competitions added in the file)

Editor data files are quite simply incompatible with any version of FM Touch

Ha ha, now I know! Interesting league format, seems crazy that there isn't a combined league format but I hear they are thinking about it. Went down the rabbit hole a little bit whilst looking around your database and ended up watching some of last years Gozitan cup final on Facebook
Any tips on where to start? I was thinking of cutting my teeth in the Gozitan leagues before working my across/up? to the top flight, any interesting teams to look at?

It's all much of a muchness really. If you go for a Gozitan club, just keep in mind that you can't get promoted to the Maltese leagues, but otherwise there's no real difference in the lower leagues. I'd tell you to sign real-life me up or to start as one of my former clubs, but that wouldn't be fair on the others, would it?
