Or maybe I'll upload the save and someone else can do it so I can have a day where my laptop doesn't slow down

I could do it if needed (also it would be cool to have the save anyway to examine it!) Promise I won't pull any fast ones.

 

[BenitoSTARR]

Yeah but didn't you buy your club für a few quid, so had loads more money to spend. And still ended up bankrupting the club.

Would be interesting to now sim the next 10 years without our intervention and see what happens to the clubs.

We planned to be a better side late in the experiment. We knew we couldn’t realistically catch any clubs for several seasons.

Derby will be fine joking aside when we leave. Just sell a big name. Invest in youth (which we were the first to do so heavily) and repeat.

But you can’t take those memories away from our virtual fans.

 

[sebsheep]

Congrats @BenitoSTARR @The Cat

I'd offer but I doubt it'd work on my switch, or if it did it'd be the last thing my switch ever does.

I can run the experiment. I’m on vacation for the next 10 days, and I have the most preposterous gaming rig you’ve ever seen.

 

[The Cat]

Was always a long term plan and we knew we should spend every single penny right up till the end.

The club will be fine the assets outstrip the debt 10 fold and the current rules allow you 2 years to adjust.

Financially played to perfection.

Unlike Arsenal.

 

[The Cat]

@The Cat we did it buddy!

1. Endrick owners
2. League 1 Champions
3. Championship Champions
4. League Cup Winners
5. FA Cup Winners
6. Premier League Champions
7. Champions League Winners
8. 10,000 Rep

Congrats fella a hell of a hall of fame record.

So as we know, Sheffield Utd sold their entire U21s and U18s last season. Here's how they got on.

Those 4 goals:

- A random 26 year old called Jimmy Irakoze from Burundi got two of them. He appears to have just played two games for them in September before vanishing.
- A 16yo called Nemanja Ilic who was generated by the youth intake in March before scoring on 2nd April.
- Nobody. Literally it's the first goal of their season from August and it does not show a goalscorer. I think the game just gave you a goal out of pity.


Your U18s did a bit better, but they also have random Georgians scoring for them throughout the season. They finished 13th out of 14, with 3 wins!

Premier League Preview

Sheffield Utd are favourites for the title. The rest have the same odds as each other. A Premier League without Arsenal or City this year.

Not even FMRTE can do that.

Also in June, the 2037 Club World Cup is going on. Only Sheffield Utd and Sunderland are in it. I've no idea what happens with this competition anymore.

Will update closer to the final of it, if you make it.

Yeah, that is bugged. We've finished 4th the last 2 years and Bolton ran away with it last year. The lads know there is no pressure on them this year.

 

[Solius]

Sunderland knocked out by Dortmund in the CWC Second Round. Big upset there.

Sheffield Utd into the semis against Porto.

Kompany loves a striker.

 

[BD]

I'm liking the cut of Hoeness' jib so far.

 

[Solius]

Oh and your 3 games in PL, which means nothing!

 

[SilentWitness]

Kompany starting well is a bad omen. He's supposed to start shite.

 

[BD]

Oh and your 3 games in PL, which means nothing!

Bolton have won the league so

We had our fun

We had our fun

One of your pre-season games was Diomande's testimonial. You beat Angers 4 - 0.

 

[Solius]

Sunderland also had a testimonial for Mainoo, randomly against Greuther Furth, winning 3 - 1. Mainoo didn't even play in the game
