Next season with a few new faces and a bit more luck you will get promotion from this league. Good luck with it.

Belgium is not an easy country to win. Only a few clubs are really good and a lot of teams are not really bad. You are most of the times part of the mid table. I never managed to win any silver in this country (yet).

I think it will be possible to become second but you can't make any mistakes anymore. Vidima-Rakovski only wins half of there matches and two draws out of four games would be enough for you.

To bad you lost in the Euro Cup. Now you can go full for the PL the rest of the year and maybe step up a few places. Do you have this aggresive players or do you play with hard tackles? In cup matches its hard to win if you lose players to red cards.

Good luck the second half of the season!

FMC mode is indeed a step back to the older FM games. You get speed and lose control over your team. I takes a different approach to manage a team in FMC. I also play FMH (handheld) and that's also completely different. There is scouting and training so much different and still it can be fun to play with.

I hope you will continue the run (or start a new one in normal mode) because I enjoy reading these stories with there successes and luckely also failures. Because you won't enjoy successes if you never fail once in a while.

Great career story. Trophy cabinet is shining with silver already, but so many leagues and prices to win....... it will be great to follow your next steps.

Good luck with it.

Thinking about doing such a challenge but than in classic to gain some time. I want to do it in Holland with Dutch players with Ajax. I think it would be a great challenge since the best players of Holland won't come back to Ajax (yet).

Respect for your results. Winning CL and FA in season one is great and runner-up in th EPL and LC is still great.

I am new to this forum and inspired by the careers posted on this forum to write my own career blog.

I want to travel around Europe and win as many trophies as possible. With each club I manage I will decide what goals I would like to reach before resigning and hopping to the next job.

To make the trip more fun I edited all European countries (except Liechtenstein) so I can play in 200 leagues in Europe.
I will start my journey in one of the 7 lowest leagues and will stay with a club for at least 2 seasons, unless I got sacked of course.

The lowest playable leagues according to the reputation table in FM2013 are :
  • Kazachstan 3th level
  • Armenia 3th level
  • Israel 5th level
  • Wales 3th level
  • Moldavia 4th level
  • Portugal 5th level
  • Norway 5th level
To decide where to start I applied to all vacant jobs in a country for a month and got in total 145 job offers in 4 countries (Israel, Wales, Portugal & Norway). From these job offers I choose a club with the most potential (wage structure, stadium capacity, transfer money)

I'll start my career at Konnerud in the Norwegian Lower League. I will stay with the club for at least 2 seasons. My goals are getting promotion to the 4th level and get promotion to the 3th level. After 2 seasons I will decide what competitions I will do next. These are the 3 leagues above and below the 4th level of Norway according to the reputation list of leagues in FM2013. I will resign my current club and look for a club to do my next challenge.

I will keep you up to date at least every season.
