#248091 The Blackpool Saga

Tonight, Brentford played host to Blackpool in the Championship.. Blackpool who sat bottom of the league, the point deficit to catching anyone above them almost double figures, Brentford had 42 (forty two) shots in the game, in a 4-0 win. Blackpool had 26% of the ball during the entire game.

Before the season got underway, turmoil hit the seaside club, their chairman turned against the clubs fans, he sacked two managers in a few months, a club that was a premier league team only a few years ago were sinking very slowly. With ony EIGHT first team players a week before the season started, they got desperate and managed to muster enough players to start the season, badly.

6 months later, 12 points off safety, and in 33 games have conceded 65 goals scoring only 28 resulting in a -37 goal difference, with 4 wins to their name in 2014/15 relegation seems inevitible..

Could you do any better?
I have prepared an editor file, putting Blackpool in a situation just like the way they found themselves in at the start of the season, only 8 players remain on your books, can you keep them up? A limited wage budget and no transfer funds is all you have to help you get enough players in to stay in the division, not only that but morale at the club is non existent....

The players remaining are;

- Francois Zoko
- Tony McMahon
- Nathan Delfouneso
- Elliot Parish
- Bobby Grant
- Nile Ranger
- Dominic Telford
- Henry Cameron

The point system in this challenge are as follows.

- Have a squad of 25 players (with or without u21's/reserves) 25points
- Make a proffit over the entire season 100points
- Stay in the division 200points
- Win a manager of the month award 20points
- Manager of the season award 50points
- Promotion to the premier league 300points
- Finish in the play off zone 200points
- Relegated -50points

Do you have what it takes?

They can have the Mickey Mouse Cup, I'm sure they'll savour it for years to come.


What like you'll have to savour last years FA Cup win?

Sorry this is illegal, we don't speak about piracy of any sort about Football Manager games on this forum.

Best option is to have your family mail your original copy of the game via the post to you.

Not really, yet anyway, Beatson' not doing to bad always looks solid enough, Jack Stobbs is the brightest prospect only 17 but has a smaller frame then Scougall so will need quite a bit of time to develop. Franck Betra was looking good, but he picked up a bad injury and is out for the season. Our academy will take ages to catch up with your productivity, it got neglected for far to long.


Scougall would be a brilliant little player if he 'bulked' up a little, he just gets thrown around game after game, limits him quite a lot, Louis Reed is even smaller though, soon he'll get the same treatment Scougall gets from opposition players.

Although we're in League One i don't think theres much difference between the quality of players both Sheffield clubs have, it just always seems to be a problem getting out of league one for any team, really.

Why not? It'd be deadly.

Minnows Brazil taking on the mighty Samoa or Cape Verde.


The World Cup is supposed to be special, 48 teams would ruin it imo.

Wouldn't mind them extending the Euro's though.

If you get that message, check again the when selecting the files make sure that only one of the SUSIE update Promotion and Relegation files are in use. In both then you get that message above.


Is that your screenshot, do you get the error too? I don't thats all.. bit of a weird one..

Nevermind, i've figured it out. Basically somewhere along the lines, Rob renamed the promotion/relegation files and instead of overwriting old ones, it creates a new one and they basically clash..

Empty your Edit Data files of anything that starts with "sortitoutsi.net" once you've done that just re-download the newest database and copy that into the editor data folder.

Cheers for getting back to me

I couldn't help notice that young Odegaard was not at Real Madrid, is this a purposely done thing? I only really checked him amount with some other BPL transfer which all seemed fine there. Just wondered about Odegaard though in case I had done something wrong


This will be fixed, thanks for bringing it up.

To clarify, your trying to load the XML files via the FM 15 editor and not by FM 13 (the game)?

If so, the editor won't read XML files this year, the only way you can make changes to the file would be manually, this isn't advised as its quite easy to break something.

You can always try File > Import in the editor, see if that works for you.

Major feature announcement - 18/02/2015

We have now improved our system which works better for you (the ones submitting data) and us (the ones approving data), not only that we have also implemented the following changes;

- You can now submit Promotions and Relegations, the best way to do this without creating errors is to transfer the bottom team (relegation) with the top team (promotion), 2nd place (promotion) and 2nd bottom (relegation) and so on for each league you are promoting/relegating
- You can now submit new contracts that have been signed in real life
- Contract expiry date can now be set when moving players on permanent transfers

Again, we look forward to your submissions as without you we wouldn't be able to have such a brilliant update, but please if a change has already been submitted, don't re-submit it again, noto only are you wasting your time, it means we have to waste our time moderating changes that already exist.

I know a few leagues in the world of football have finished, mainly Norway (this league should be fully to to date as all promotion/relegations have been approved) and Sweden. If you are Swedish, or know the Swedish league system please do submit Promotion/Relegations (that goes for any other league that has completed the 2014 league season.

Thanks for reading.

Seems like he'll turn into another 'hyped' Italian youngster who'll end up in the lower leagues of Italy as you say. Shame his attitudes not like Louis Reed, he seems a good lad.

I forgot about Slew, his dads a big lad


Louis Reed is really down to earth, know his family, he's not gonna be one to uproot easily, think he'll be here for a few more years yet. Brilliant player too, only 17 aswel.

Currently got a lad out playing for Ilkeston, got a really big future in the game scored 14 in 7 for Hallam, just gone out to Ilkeston and scored 2 on his debut, if he lives up to the promise, we won't even remember Diego.

Any good players coming through your ranks? I know a lad, Brad Beatson who plays for your academy

What do you think to De Girolamo leaving? has he even shown as much promise since his injury? No idea why he thinks moving to Sunderland is a good move, if he does end up there


He thinks hes bigger than the club, his head has obviously been turned because of all the paper reports over the last few years, his reasons for rejecting a contract (rumour is we offered him just over 2 thousand per week on the new deal including bonuses, which for a 19 year old League One footballer is absurd if true) is because he wants to play, Sunderland, Juventus and Lazio all want him, he hasn't a cat in hells chance of getting games with either of those teams. He's not really played many first team games for us, but when he has he's done ok, but as he's not a regular we probably won't miss him. You can't really miss what you haven't had tbh.

He's very highly regarded in Italy because of the u19/21 set up so most clubs will know about him i'd guess, so i expect him to end up at one of the bigger clubs but probably loaned out to a team in Serie B/C which is most definatly not as good as any of the English leagues above Conference.

He's played his last game for us though, went out on loan to York until the seasons end, and then he's a free agent.

He'll be one of those flops, that never makes it, but it serves himself right for leaving at such a young age if his career goes down the pan, just like Jordan Slew who's just signed for the mighty... Cambridge United

Birmingham's parent company in receivership. Don't know how that applies to FL insolvency rules. Technically, they're solvent. But they're also consulting with creditors and doing a lot of things which administrators also do. I suspect a 10-point deduction will be heading their way, though I could be wrong. I can't claim to know the FL's rules on insolvency particularly well.


Thats not certain, either as the solvency is in regards to the company owning BIHL which is Birminghams parent company, not sure how it works in that set up.

We're on a bit of a roll at min, beat Colchester 4-1, then beat Bristol City who hadn't lost at home since November 3-1, and tonight we just won Notts County 2-1.

1 more game in hand, and then we'll be 6 points behind 2nd. Its on.

New features 14/02/2015

- Loan 'future fee' is now working as it should, and the game no longer generates random future fees for any loans in our database
- You can now set contract expiry dates for players that are transferring from club to club.
- It is now possible to search for players/staff who only have two letters, something that was very brought up via PM quite a lot.

Once again i'd like to thank everyone who has submitted to our update, throughout the January transfer window, the updat wouldn't be the same without you!

We are always looking for ways to improve our update, if you have any ideas on what we could do to improve our update, feel free to message me via private message, all ideas will be considerated.

As we cannot put in future transfers, the easiest option so he would join LA Galaxy on the correct date was to Send him to LA and loan him back to Liverpool until the day he should join LA Galaxy.

Our system currently doesn't support future transfers.
