Manager Reputation - Where can I go?

I've started a save with Rochdale, with Sunday League playing experience.

I was expected to finish 22nd, but stayed up by finishing 18th. Then, in the second season I finished 4th and won promotion through the play-offs. Naturally, I'm finding life in the Championship pretty difficult, and most likely will get relegated.

I'm just wondering, if I were to get sacked or resign at the end of the season - where can I expect to find a job? My manager reputation is 40%, but not sure how that translates to what clubs may offer me a job? Obviously, Man City/Liverpool/Chelsea etc. aren't going to offer me anything - but would an established Championship club give me a chance, or even a struggling Premier League club? Or, if I were to look abroad - am I looking at clubs in the top divisions but mid-table? Or Serie B/Spanish Second Division etc.?

Thanks in advance.

Not completely sure, but going from my old FM20 save, started as sunday league at Dorking

After 3 promotions, I ended up at about 40%ish & went to De Graafschap in KKD. I think if you go by League Rep, somewhere in the 30-50 range would be fine league-wise

To answer my own question, I have an update...

I finished the season with Rochdale - things started to come together in the end and finished a very respectable 13th, and then the following season finished a-still-very-respectful 16th. However, I was done with Rochdale and threw my hat into the ring for a few other jobs around Europe...by this stage my Manager Reputation was at 50%.

I had interviews with Hoffenheim, Real Sociedad, and Rennes - and received offers from Hoffenheim & Real Sociedad, and think I would have been offered the job at Rennes too, but had already chosen to take the Hoffenheim job.

Hopefully this will give other players doing a journeyman career a little bit of guidance as to where you can go based on manager reputation!
