OK, I'll explain that comment.
After playing through my first season as Airdrie and doing so well. I resigned straight away and instantly put the game into holiday mode and set to 'Apply for any jobs' and 'Return from holiday when offered a job' WITHOUT saving it. Thinking that it woud be on holiday for only a couple of in-game months AT MOST.
Wrong.
3 SEASONS passed and I wasn't offered a single job. And the worst part is, I hadn't saved it. So my options were to continue the game another 3 years in OR start a new one. Neither of which were very appealing tbh.
So I figured that I could load up a new game with the same manager details & start as Airdrie again and just Holiday through the first season then resign and continue from there. So I tried this 3 times and EVERY TIME Airdrie got relegated .
So I kept the third save and figured I'd just resign and continue on my story as if I'd just gone from Airdrie to Hamilton in my original save. So I thought it only fair to reset my 'Fergie points' and just continue on for my 4 seasons at Hamilton.
What do you guys think?? Honest feedback is appreciated!

I'm having this problem too mate. Since I have completed the first season (I may update later) but I can't seem to be able to get a job ffs and if I do, they're not Scottish ffs. I'm actually tempted to restart my challenge with a bigger first division club instead of Raith and just sign a new deal so they can't sack me.
Personally I would start a new save, I've been thinking of doing the same as stated.
Thankfully I've not had a problem with offer after getting the Ross County and Rangers jobs, however I was still employed when I applied for those jobs, I only stepped down from my first club Dumbarton after handing in my application to County and I left Ross for Rangers whilst still under contract, which is perhaps the difference?

It's so annoying mate as I thought that with an already National rep and a good season improving a poor team under my belt I'd get another job no bother!
Thing is I did apply for the Hamilton and St Johnstone (newly relegated) jobs before I resigned in my original save, thinking that they would offer me a job. But Hamilton went with Gary Megson and Dundee went with Pat Bonner FFS!
It's just so irritating cause I'll need to start from scratch again! Argh!
If I do it won't be as Airdrie. Couldn't handle another first season as them to be honest! Haha.

Decided to start a new one. I was thinking Dunfermline but I'd rather start as a poorer team with a low predictged league finish. Although in-fairness I can't remember what Dunfermline's is at the start of the game, lol.

Yeah I see where your coming from mate but my first club is only going to be for the first season. I'd like to have more time to spend at a club like Dunfermline so maybe as my second club if the opportunity arises as I'd be spending 4 seasons there. That way I'd have a good run at building them up.
Grateful for the input and opinion though matey, thanks!
