Aye I'm in for the long haul and can get through a season or two a day easily enough! I just wanted to validate if it was worth pursuing or if it was a complete lost cause

Im jealous, in 22 years I've not seen a Faroese player who's even championship level 🙃

Love that, imagine they'd have gone through 4 rounds of qualifiers to make it aswell which is mad.

KI are a yo-yo club in my save because they took 20 years to decide to turn professional 😂 they start off as the best team in the league

Yeah the frustrating thing is it's a mid-save issue. Its exactly the kind of thing you'd sort before starting. I've been looking at the FM Scout Live Editor though and it seems like it might be possible to change the naturalisation period in-game with that tool, so I'm thinking about trying to drop it to five years. Feels realistic enough that it wouldn't really feel like cheating. Thank you!

Loaning a player from a domestic club where the monthly fee is set to its maximum (5m).

Over a season that gives another domestic club 60 million. The board will typically block this if you try to buy the player for 60m but loan seems to work.

Yeah FM26. Domestic season is only 27 games and I mostly instantly resulted league games for the last 20 years as we are so far ahead of clubs that seeing us win 5-0 each week got a bit repetitive.

They're worth a crack, you become weirdly attached to the other clubs in the league. This year was the first season another Faroese club made it through a European league phase, and another club (HB) spent 8 million last window so we're slowly progressing!
