You done quite well to get £30m for Moussa Dembele @Sean_67 especially when he wasn't overly prolific in the first season. Has Kieran Tierney become unhappy since you rejected that second bid from Arsenal? I'd be surprised if he wasn't.

Damn, before I opened this thread I thought the BETA had been released much earlier than expected...

...now I'm disappointed.

Just be delighted that Shenghavit are more shite than you are.

Feels like I haven't commented on this career in ages but it's superb to see it's still up and running and going strong. Are you planning on doing something similar when FM18 comes out and how have Dungannon done since you departed them?

No.

The BETA should be released around October 27 as that'll be two weeks before the main release.

DeAndre Yedlin should've been dismissed in the second half though, the referee bottled it.

I'm thinking of attempting the Around Europe/World challenge again but I'm not sure whether I'm going to attempt it from the beta or on the actual full release, it depends though if there's any major issues like there was with FM17 whenever you loaded a country, e.g. Belarus and EVERY SINGLE TEAM ended up being playable, ruined it from the get go unfortunately - I'll need to holiday for a season on the beta to see if there's no major issues.

I'll obvious be doing the Susie challenges, and failing.

Finally, I'm thinking of running a save in the 'background' so I can make sure I don't get bored of my main save but I don't have a clue on who to do yet. Bangor aren't playable from the frist season on this years game following their relegation out of the Irish League, can't enjoy managing Newcastle for some reason and I haven't managed Rangers properly for about three years so I'm thinking them.

So is an all Ireland play off possible?

As far as I know, with both nations being unseeded it's not possible.

By BR. | On 11 October 2017 - 19:13 PM BST

I thought they were both unseeded? With Denmark seeded. Not sure how they split them all though.

Points?

No matter who we end up facing in the playoff's, it's going to be a tough game. Croatia or Denmark would be my preference.

For those who are still participating in this challenge (so far I'm the only one who has completed it), you have six days to complete the remainder of season one.

Season one roundup:

https://sortitoutsi.net/uploads/mirrored_images/Jc05DMVzUEGK0IKzfdiXHcVaKGLo8bDxH4ix7HsH.jpg

Wayne Rooney was the only signing made in the January transfer window as he arrived on deadline day from Manchester United for £5.25m but he only ended up playing six games for Juve due to the change of formation. Rodrigo and Rolando Mandragora sodded off on loan deals.

https://sortitoutsi.net/uploads/mirrored_images/pjqr4XlOKnIfmOSa5xQTS1KRne2qpaCQcrECd8eD.jpg

But a lovely 20 points came my way as we defeated AC Milan 3-0 in the Italian Super Cup game in Doha.

https://sortitoutsi.net/uploads/mirrored_images/WkHs8NBSqtVBAQvtvHQnWM9sxGEmoSf6CYp6zdvQ.jpg

Can we pretend the Champions League didn't happen this season? 0 points due to exiting at the group stages but if he had beaten Celtic in Glasgow then we would've been in the Europa League. They didn't have a 'real' goalkeeper as Craig Gordan was injured but still managed to duff us. Boo.

https://sortitoutsi.net/uploads/mirrored_images/lIGwQVlr1ix4XNfMwrD37rP7jjyeJhCRluYLjTv5.jpg

10 points arrived in the Italian Cup as Juventus reached the semi final stages before losing on the away goals rule to Lazio. We really should've reached the final.

https://sortitoutsi.net/uploads/mirrored_images/cfHPL83MzO5goRqXTN5pIIHKhtqe8jtHVmz784rA.jpg

Unfortunately I've lost 10 points due to failing to reach the top four but it was given a good go. Disappointing results against our rivals Torino and three consecutive league defeats in November/December ultimately cost us and I've no doubt that if we had Gonzalo Higuian for the entire season then Juventus would've reached the Champions League at least.

https://sortitoutsi.net/uploads/mirrored_images/PyyLptIos3VuFisDGovHbwO3ZOowvCp0g9jFCBEf.jpg

Beat Inter Milan x2 = 10 points
Beat Torino x0 = 0 points
Beat Fiorentina x2 = 10 points
Beat Roma x2 = 5 points

= 25 points.

https://sortitoutsi.net/uploads/mirrored_images/76CZXI7RsoTiDoxL8VxtRWx7woYXbBRhH1d5pFi9.jpg

And finally an extra 5 points was given because Gonzalo Higuian won the Player of the Year award.

Total Points:
Super Cup winners = 20 points
Champions League group stage exit = 0 points
Italian Cup semi final exit = 10 points
Serie A 5th place finish = -10 points
Beat Inter x2 = 10 points, beat Fiorentina x2 = 10 points, beat Roma x1 = 5 points
Gonzalo Higuain winning Player of the Year = 5 points

Total = 50 points. It could've been better.

I can't seem to get the likes of Dybala and the rest of the 'suspension players' bar Buffon registered for the rest of the campaign.

Anyone else having the same issue?

EDIT: Scrap the above. I was finally able to get them registered a few days after the transfer window opened.

I don't know whether it's the game changing over the years or just me, but I haven't had a proper good save for at least 2-3 years.

It could be just you having a life pal

because I can still enjoy the game quite frequently.

Alright guys. This challenge officially closed at 8pm last night. @Dan will total all the points up and challenge #5 will be posted whenever he's ready.

This didn't turn out to be the most popular challenge for one reason or another and I'll take full blame as I didn't realise Valencia were completely muck. Lets hope the next challenge will rekindle everyone and we'll get a few more participants as FM17 winds down.

Why?

Some people just prefer social media nowadays rather than posting on a forum, obviously I'm not sure whether the three I mentioned are on social media, but still.

Johno is another member who doesn't really appear on here much nowadays.

I'm still a regular on here, I don't know whether that's impressive or it makes me feel sad.

But so many members have left over the years and wish they'd return - @Mikel, @Telegram Sam, @Deano just to name three members who haven't seemingly posted in over a year but I also wouldn't blame them if they never returned.

Rumours that De Boer has been sacked, if so i hope they get relegated.

BBC site has confirmed De Boer's sacking.

You really don't get any time in the management lark these days.

How do i open up the file in the game

You need to download the file in the OP first, once that's done then that'll be placed in your downloads folder (can be found as part of your documents iirc).

Once the file has been downloaded, you just need to move it to [Documents > Sports Interactive > Football Manager 2017 > games], you will then load the game and click 'load game' once the actual load screen is loaded - the file will be called 'Spanish Revival' iirc.
