Episode 25: Beating the Best!
Episode 24: Back to the Transfer Window
After switching up the player roles in the last episode, we've continued our excellent run today by picking up some more scalps. Annoyingly, we do have a little bit of inconsistency, but until we're in...
Episode 3: Stunning Form!
We have some incredible matches today as this new team and formation seem destined to become the great entertainers. We also pick up four red cards in the process and I have absolutely no idea why!
A couple of excellent wins...
Episode 23: Heading up the Table!
After switching up the player roles in the last episode, we've continued our excellent run today by picking up some more scalps. Annoyingly, we do have a little bit of inconsistency, but until we're in the Eu...
Episode 22: It gets worse before it gets better!
My spirits had definitely dropped before and during this episode, but suddenly we changed the tactic and strung together three victories in six games to climb back up to mid-table!
The switch to our ol...
Episode 21: Why do we always start so badly?
After the optimism from some good transfers in the last episode, it feels an awful lot like it might have been unfounded. Some very disappointing results in this episode as we fail to beat the teams that we...
Episode 2: Goals Galore!
Today we open our second pack as we look to fill some of the areas where we're a little weaker. We pick up a couple of good additions around the center of midfield and then go on one heck of a run of matches!
We are scori...
Episode 20: Spending £100m in the Transfer Window!
The board gave us a huge amount of money for our third season after finishing so far clear of relegation last time out and we have definitely spent well! We have a slight problem in that the play...
Episode 19: Season 2 Finale and £70m!
We've reached the end of Season Two with Newcastle and amazingly we still have a job! Having come so close to the sack in our first season, we're actually in really good shape heading into season th...
Episode 1: Opening Packs in Football Manager!
Welcome to a brand new series of Football Manager 2017! This is something a little different that I wanted to try, and it involves bringing FIFA Ultimate Team Packs into Football Manager. Now I'd never do anything as blasphemous as actually play FIFA...
Episode 18: Beating the Best!
We're into the business end of the season now and we're fighting with the best to get into the top half of the table. We have some amazing results, particularly against Chelsea and a high-flying Southampton.
Unf...
Episode 17: Three Games with Manchester
have to take on Man City three times and Arsenal once. Episodes have definitely been easier.
We're out of the FA Cup now so it's all about the league and we have about two episodes left in Season 2. Ho...
Episode 16: Making the most of the Transfer Window!
Another great transfer window for the club as we get stronger and stronger! Picking up Batshuayi for just £7.5m was incredible and now that Janssen is hitting form again we have a real chance of...
Episode 15: Beating Manchester United!
Yet another frustrating episode as we see the highs of beating Manchester United get followed up with three defeats. We are playing some big teams at the moment and still managing to get results so I'm not to...
Episode 14: Is it all falling apart?
Our poor patch of form extends into this episode with a couple more defeats until we do eventually secure two victories in a row. We also manage to beat top of the table Southampton as our stunning home form continu...
Episode 13: Newcastle 3 - 0 Arsenal!
Another good run of games, although there were a few defeats in this episode. It looks like we're beginning to struggle against teams away from home and we might need to think up a new tactic to stop the rot....
Episode 12: Starting Strong!
It looks like the strong transfer signings have helped us get off to a pretty great start after that disappointing defeat to Liverpool in our opening game!
Some very good wins in the League mean we're already in and a...
Thanks Shedender! I used to lurk these forums a while ago so I thought I better come back to contribute for a change!
Newcastle is actually somewhat harder than I thought it would be, mainly because the squad is a little... ambitious. Still, we aim for t...
Episode 11: Crushing the Transfer Window!
After saying that I might only sign one striker in the transfer window, I maybe went a little overboard... A lot of new, but incredible signings have come in. I am very excited to get started with this team and...
Episode 10: We're in the Premier League!
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W2-e9I05q6M
Only the two matches today, but they're the two matches that send us into the Premier League! Perhaps the better news for me is that the board did decide to e...
Episode 9: Can We Win the Title?!
After just about hanging on to our job in the last episode, the focus switches to charging into the automatic promotion places this time. It is crucial we avoid the play-off positions as failing to get promoted will al...
Episode 8: SACKED?!
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m1-BTfK2lP0
Things we looking so rosy with two wins in a row for the first time in ages. Then Reading beat us 3 - 0 and suddenly the board are calling me in for a 'chat' about confidence.
Yo...
Episode 7: We're in the play-off places!
Sorry for the delay in uploads, I've been away for work and wasn't able to access the internet very much. We manage to extend our unbeaten run even further here, but there's still too many d...
Episode 6: Did we leave it too late?
In this part we continue our very strong return to form but begin to draw a few too many games than I'd like. We remain unbeaten for a long run of games in the league, but it's looking precarious with us s...
Episode 5: climbing the table!
We are continuing our excellent recent form following that awful start to the season. We still have some work to do and our position remains precarious, but we are at least moving in the right direction.
I feel like our...
Episode 4: Finally Finding Form!
Quick apology for starters, one of my videos got corrupted so we're missing the 2-0 win over Cardiff. I'm not sure what's gone wrong but hopefully it doesn't happen again!
A much better episode toda...
Episode 3: Have I just been sacked?
Good Lord. Being called into the boardroom to discuss your future is the most stressful thing in this game. I have only ever been sacked on Football Manager once in 10 years and I am one match from being sacked here....
The hardest FM yet?
Episode two is here and it is just as frustrating as the first! I feel like we are starting to get the hang of the tactic we want to play, but it could cost us our job before we fully figure it out!
I would describe our current for...
This is my FM 2017 Beta save with the club that I support, Newcastle United! I will run this save right up until the full release of the game on November 4[SUP]th[/SUP], so hopefully we can get through a couple of seasons.
There are no restrictions or go...
