I might give this another shot when I eventually get the new game. I like the look of Oxford City in the Conference North.

Looking forward to you taking on the challenge rick, with you not running it this year it may give you a bit more motivation to battle. You do love your lower league games so hopefully we can see a thread from you soon.

I myself will be participating in this challenge, with a thread to prove screenshot etc once I puchase the new game

Or if you can’t sell the players/cost too much to release then they have to rot in the reserves until they depart.

Such a nice way to put it but yes that is also fine, when are you going to board the ship Shedender?

yes you must sale or release any foreign nationality players that makes the challenge harder espcially once you rise through the premier league and possibly into scotland.

I decided to start in the January so i had the whole of the 2012 season to play as, with the vacant job at Athlone Town, and only manged to finish 5th in the First Division and really didnt make any impact in the cups. This second season is nearly coming to the conclusion and has gone alot better in the newly expanded league, with the top 5 teams having been a tight breakaway group all season, hoping to nick the playoff spot.


Sounds like the league is very tight! I believe BOWC's league was tight as he was Athlone town to! So maybe this year you could tick the first trophy off! keep it going

Can we still compete in it, if with dont do a story thread, as i am just hopeless at writing them!

You don't need to write a thread for the challenge buddy, however I will still need to see screenshots of your manager at the start of the game (his rep) and then when you win a trophy I would like to see the message screen saying you won it and either the league table or match overview for a cup final win let me know if you wish to join the challenge

For a third year running the beast that is the British Steel returns to the challenge section for all of you that want to challenge yourself within the British Isles.

So what is the challenge: You have to win every trophy from England, Scotland, Wales, Northern Ireland and Ireland in any order you want. However you must only use British and Irish players!

With no on conquering this challenge over the last two years its proved to not be as easy as some people assume and we welcome every challenger to try and be the first!

The challenge is made a little easier by counting promotion from finishing second in the league, or via the playoffs as the title but this is your choice. Any success in Europe or with the national teams are just an added note on your history but won't count towards this challenge.

Below is a screenshot and I will add everyone who takes part to the challenge leaderboard and add your story so people can follow it easily. Once you've won a trophy be it league or cup, I will need to see a screenshot for it to count.

Rules:
  • Only use British and Irish players
  • Must start with Sunday League Reputation
  • You may start at a club or start unemployed, your choice
  • You MUST send me a screenshot of each trophy won for it to count
Below is the list of playable trophy's within the game when you load all the home nations.(Downloaded competitions and expansions are not allowed)

England
Fa Trophy, Blue Square North/South, Blue Square Premiership, Johnson's Paint trophy, nPower League Two, nPower League One, nPower Championship, League Cup, Community Shield, FA Cup, Premiership
