5th? FIFTH? Get that f**king sorted Bangor.

Oh and you're third and with a game in hand isn't too bad considering the early part of the season is stop/start with the cup competition(s) you need to enter. I'm not surprised to see Newry sit currently top as they started quite well in real life (2nd currently). I am surprised Limavady (league winners irl last season but didn't get/apply for a license for C1) are bottom. Sorry for the 'history' on last season, all I was meant to write was KIU.

I followed exactly as you said in the first post....

Some clubs in germany and spain still not working?

And that's not @mons' fault as he has been trying hard to find a German/Spanish club team fix but hasn't been quite successful, yet.

It fixes the national team though and the Brazilian clubs. It's been quite messy this year from SI due to the licensing issues.

An excellent 3-0 win at home to Ipswich this afternoon and with Norwich losing at home to Preston makes it even better.

You've got some good players pal for Premier Intermediate League level and if you don't lose them, you could have an excellent campaign.

There was no upset for Dundalk last night at 'home' to Zenit.

And that was despite the fact they took the lead against the Russians and also hit the post, which if that had went in would've made it 2-0. Zenit then scored twice inside the final twenty minutes and also missed a penalty to win the game. Can't see Dundalk picking up a positive result in St. Petersburg in two weeks time but stranger things have happened.

Wow, Southampton did not deserve to lose that. Which is a weird thing to say considering they were away against Inter!

Not really consider Inter have already lost at home in the Europa League this season to Be'er Sheva.

Anyway the Dundalk game is about to kick off at Tallaght against Zenit St. Petersburg and it's shown free to view on Eir Sports 1 I believe for anyone remotely interested. I'm one who always wants to see the Irish sides do well in Europe whether they're from the north or the south. Don't think they'll win but I'm sure they'll give a good account of themselves again.

Starting in 'rainy' Scotland

https://sortitoutsi.net/uploads/mirrored_images/Zl1MdZ0NEK5Bw9Lo9Hnvjs5PoWe9g03KyE1C3VVF.png
Tuesday, 12 July 2016

I didn't ideally want to begin this career within the combines of the United Kingdom but sadly I did and I have began this career up north in Scotland at the very bottom. For those who can't remember, I've started this career with NO coaching badges and a reputation of a Sunday League Footballer so it's going to be an epic challenge of success, failure, heartbreak and success - but mostly heartbreak and failure.

I should've been at our twelfth festivities here in Northern Ireland but instead I'm starting a quest in football management.


https://sortitoutsi.net/uploads/mirrored_images/tCHpp1GnwtjOE8FkpWMbScD9KqhWz4Fw3Z5LXFBJ.jpg

And my, soon to be hopefully epic career begins in the land of Irn Bru and Tunnock's Tea Cakes as I've been appointed the new manager of Scottish League Two club Stirling Albion as I agreed to sign a one year deal at Forthbank Stadium.

For those who don't know Stirling Albion, they're a semi-professional club and they ply their trade in the bottom tier of Scottish league. They're predicted to finish the season in fourth place which would equal a play-off spot and I feel that's acceptable. I don't have much money in the way of a transfer budget or wages but that's fine as it's my first job in management and I can't expect Real Madrid/Manchester City etc. types of wage/transfer budgets.

https://sortitoutsi.net/uploads/mirrored_images/kTHklRmVX2d2r1UXuFjspePqaoZIBDigYusEQQku.jpg

We've got a decent squad at my disposial but the problem is I've only got one out and out striker and that's Blair Henderson while we've got not one, not two, not three, not four but FIVE right wingers which is unbelievable but Callum Morrison is only on-loan until January I believe.

Improvements are needed but it won't be easy.

It's time to meet the manager!

https://sortitoutsi.net/uploads/mirrored_images/cKG4bD3Iu3WItYneR82jZ3A75Nhx8u4bVfPto9Sm.jpg

Instead of posting this in the OP I've once again decided to do the "meet the manager" in a separate post which will have a picture of me (well not quite me, but still, my "manager" as well as my managerial stats although truth be told, they won't be much to look at. When I done this on FM15 the manager stats allegedly rose quite fast in the beta, I hope this year is different.

https://sortitoutsi.net/uploads/mirrored_images/48et3WmDiPJ48vof2EbzRLM1rndbMRizG6sZA7Ze.jpg
*Please note: This is NOT a picture of me
Just like always in my career, I am "Shedender", a twenty nine year old Football Manager who just wants to finally make a break in the management game and it's something I've been looking forward too since I was a little boy playing football games on the orignial Playstation. I was born in Dundonald, Belfast and support my local club Bangor.

I'm also a massive fan of English club Newcastle United, Scottish giants Glasgow Rangers and German Bundesliga club Dortmund. As per the norm, I'm going to try and play a 4231 (wide) formation but I have no idea what style I'll be playing, yet.

So, what do my managerial stats look like?

https://sortitoutsi.net/uploads/mirrored_images/fpTz4WO55CtaYK21yaT1jwWqh5GikANeeK1ULR5u.jpg

Poor but that's absolutely fine as I'll be starting on a 'traditional' Sunday League Footballer reputation (Boys Brigade reputation wasn't available, the last time I actually played football, poorly, but still played) and I'm sure the stats will rise up but I'm hoping not too quickly as that'll be unrealistic indeed. All stats are currently on one except for Mental and Youngster Knowledge which is on two while Tactical and Player Knowledge are on three. I've stated that I'm a 'knowledgeable' manager.

https://sortitoutsi.net/uploads/mirrored_images/iCOhaP8VuNOkdCWP0wNJ8sgCAv7C7nWJzz6gBEWl.jpg

These are the jobs that are currently available (there's two International jobs which are England and Algeria but International jobs don't help this career) but I've already ruled out the vacancies at English League One duo Coventry and Shrewsbury and Scottish Championship side St. Mirren.

I don't really want to manage in England yet so that also rules out the possibility of Bishop's Stortford and Weston-super-mare - there's one job in the bottom tier of Scottish football in Stirling while there's one job in Wales and that's Cardiff Met Uni, Galway is available in Republic of Ireland while Northern Ireland has four vacancies and they are Premiership side Carrick, Championship One's Loughgall and Premier Intermediate League's (Championship Two on the game) duo of Newry City and Dundela.

I've an idea at who I want to start at, just need to boss an interview.

Hello all and welcome to what I hope will be my one and only Football Manager 2017 career as I attempt to once and for all conquer Europe and then, eventually, the World and I'll try not to stop until it's conquered. When I last attempted this on Football Manager 2015 which you can see HERE I reached the year 2074 before losing interest and even then I was nowhere near completed which isn't surprised.

I attempted the career previously with @Dan.


https://sortitoutsi.net/uploads/mirrored_images/LyM3ItUW9ZrapGvGoD7xwsRr1B8mfXtffAmJJ1gV.jpg

Europe is the most difficult to complete as you can see there is thirty four playable countries along with the "big four" of England, France, Germany and Spain. Africa only has one playable league and that's South Africa while Asia has eight (including Australia) and South America has six.

https://sortitoutsi.net/uploads/mirrored_images/Agky0YJn9R3SrWQUUVDEXuRK9R8jTbCBVvz2Cm7o.jpg

After trying different countries but failing to get employment, I've decided to opt for the much 'safer' route and that's starting in the home nations alongside Republic of Ireland. I've loaded all playable divisions from the five countries loaded as I look to start 'employment' on what should be an memorable journey around Europe and potentially the World.

My one and hopefully only career this year will be a remake of our head to head from 2015, version 2, around Europe/World trying to win every trophy possible in the game. I'll not complete it, but its worth giving it a go apparently.

You're not allowed to quit until it's conquered, same goes for myself.

You can't activate the game until the beta is released which, in reality, should be sometime next week.

What you will get is an e-mail with an activation code, no hard copy of the game. Where have you seen people activating the game when, unless I'm incorrect, you can't at this present time - I preordered the game when it first came available, which I believe might've been August sometime.
