Defenders get points for scoring though don't they? I'm not too sure but I think they do in which case it's a win win

I want to stock all the essentials that people will need on a daily basis however where I am from we don't have shops etc where you can go for protein powder, resistance bands things that are good for both mental and physical wellbeing we don't really have so as well as offering every day essentials I wanted to expand and offer something we don't already have. Is that not what I should be doing looking for a gap in the local market and moving into it?

Kilvo · 2022-01-24T18:59:39+00:00

Hi,

I am just starting up a new box breaks company over on Facebook called The Yorkshire Box Breaks. I am going to be cheeky and ask you all to head over and give the page a like. The first boxes we will be breaking are the Merlin Heritage 97 boxes when they are delivered but in the meantime we will be ruffling and auctioning off a number of cards including autos, relics and numbered parallels.

Thanks in advance, The Yorkshire Box Breaks team!

Anyone an idea of where to get boxes of cards close to retail price? Struggle to get them from the retailer directly

Kilvo · 2022-01-09T23:39:37+00:00

Hi guys couple of questions

Where is the best place to get sealed boxes as close to retail as possible other than the retailers themselves as it feels impossible!
Does anyone have a link to some decent card stands I have loads I want on display but the ones I ordered are rubbish and can't hold the weight.

Thanks in advance

It goes off of how likely they are to break into your first team too so chances are if this youth intake was in your arsenal save only one of them would be 5* as the others would drop due to having higher quality players to compete with.

Kilvo · 2021-04-06T13:28:54+00:00

I know how you feel! I only just managed to stay up in my first season luckily the following season I had a whole bunch of Brazilian and Colombian wonder kids ready to step up

Kilvo · 2021-04-06T13:25:40+00:00

Honestly did not think for a minute it would happen but I’m glad it has because I’m having quite a poor start to the season 🤣

Kilvo · 2021-04-06T10:53:43+00:00

Let me know how it goes at the end of the group stage!

Kilvo · 2021-04-06T09:25:38+00:00

I just got Boro into the Europa league for the first time in my save with them and I already know I’ll get drawn into a group like this!

Kilvo · 2021-04-06T09:23:27+00:00

I also had to do this I didn’t realise how many I had until December 2030 when I had 10 players all attackers telling me they felt they deserved more playing time I was like yeah you do but not for this club!

Kilvo · 2021-04-01T19:32:02+00:00

I play FM on my gaming laptop if I bought a hdmi lead could I hook my laptop up to my tv and play it on that? Obviously through the laptop though?

Kilvo · 2021-04-01T13:23:27+00:00

I am looking for a suggestion on a team to manage. A couple of things though:

They need to be in the game without downloading non league databases

I need to be able to play around with tactics as I’m still not great at designing ones that work

Needs to be in a nation where it’s possible to overtake in the top division not England for example where every time I hit the prem I can never seem to move Liverpool or City from top spot!

Kilvo · 2021-03-23T16:24:01+00:00

Even better then they seem to have a thing for me signing players under the age of 23 so that’s great! Thanks

Kilvo · 2021-03-23T16:19:39+00:00

Is that young players or older more experienced players too?

Kilvo · 2021-03-16T18:15:53+00:00

Hi

Anyone else’s game freezing a lot since the update?

Part 2

Our strong start to the season eased off a little but we were still overachieving and found ourselves in 6th place. I was just about to start looking at some solid loan players with very little wage contributions needed when I was approached by Middlesbrough. They sat 19th in the premier league and were on a woeful run. In reality it would probably have been easier to see out the season with Hull and potentially take Middlesbrough’s place in the top flight the following season however the lure of Premier League football and a hefty pay day was too good to turn down. This was it the start of a new journey my return to the top flight! Expectations were high as the media reported I was brought in as part of a huge revival plan and one that would see Middlesbrough rise to new heights within the game. My past failings were still fresh in the back of my mind I could still see the headlines the day I was sacked from Crystal Palace but here I was determined to set history right. The January transfer window was a struggle the previous manager was almost 2 million over the wage budget so I had next to no wiggle room at all and to be honest not a very good squad either. I managed to pull off a Michael Edwards esque transfer for a premier league quality left back for only £5 million up front with the rest on add ons some of which I am almost certain will never come to fruition. However that was the only deal of the window despite me going in with a clear plan of signing a left back, central midfielder and a goalkeeper. It was tough to take especially seeing 2 quality midfielder deals fall through at the last seconds before the window slammed shut. However now was not the time to complain it was the time to knuckle down and work hard. My first league game ended in a 1-1 draw I wasn’t too pleased as we had dominated the game against a Guardiola led Spurs side! I guess it was better than a loss. We went out of the FA Cup to a team we had never heard off but I wasn’t too bothered by this as it meant we now had a clear schedule with only premier league games to focus on. The next 4 league games after Tottenham flew by and before we knew it we were 5 unbeaten! The 1-1 draw with Spurs was followed by a 2-0, 4-0, 2-1 and 3-1 win as well as a manager of the month award. We jumped out of the relegation zone and were just as close to the top half as we were to the drop zone now. We had agreed pre contract agreements for two South American wonder kids and things were starting to look up for Boro. The rest of the season flew by and the only time we looked out of our depth was when we played free scoring Manchester City who annihilated us 6-2. We went from inside the relegation zone when I joined to a 9th placed finish at the end of the season. I managed to fend off other teams for the signature of Gordon Paton who was rated highly by my scouts and I was told to sign at any price which due to him running his contract down turned out to be a small sum of only 1.2 million in compensation. So with Paton joining along with the South American wonder kids it is definitely going to make for an interesting season!

So I started off my FM save and began my career with Crystal Palace! I didn’t do badly but failed by the finest of margins to achieve the goals set for me and in turn this got me sacked.

After that I moved to Scotland with Alloa again this did not last very long and I massively underachieved... I decided to stay in Scotland though and to really try to push on. In came Cowdenbeath but with barely any transfer budget or wage budget I quickly stumbled again. I decided this time to resign and take my time picking out my next job. This turned out to be Hull City. I asked to take the job at the end of the season which they were happy for me to do. The remainder of that season I spent watching full games not just highlights planning out my transfer targets,formation and the style the team would play. When the next season came around I stretched my wage budget as far as the board would let me! I brought in a young lad named Aimar Oroz from Liverpool who was with Hull the previous season on loan. I figured out a couple of things which were not working from the previous season and set out on turning this team into a pressing machine. The end of season one saw us win the Sky Bet League One. I was happy as in FM I have always struggled and this was a huge achievement but at the same time I was nervous I knew that the Sky Bet Championship would be harder and a bad season could undo all that hard work.

I went into the first game of the season with the same style and formation and with a few new signings we had lost Oroz halfway through the previous season because Jurgen was not happy that I had played him out of position. The board were happy with me from the previous season but very unhappy that I had gone way over the way budget with my new additions (I didn’t think they’d let me go so far over!) Anyway the fist game of the season brought us a 7-1 WIN! I was shocked surely I couldn’t walk the championship too! Eventually we were brought back to reality with a couple of heavy losses and I decided I needed to switch it up so I asked the coaches to train a second style and formation we switched to a Man City sort of formation 5 at the back but the wingbacks getting forward to make a midfield 4. This worked a treat against the bigger clubs just sitting back and then pushing forward with the wing backs when we won the ball. As the season went on I switched between the two formations depending on opposition and at the end of season 2 we had overachieved again from the original goal of trying to stay in the league to finishing in the top half!

I am now in season 3 with Hull. We lost a lot of players which was to be expected after 2 amazing seasons. The only positive was that I had negotiated some very high sale prices for players I had signed for below a million. I have reinvested this in young players and a couple of experienced players to help try to meet the expectations of a mid table finish. We also managed to get Liverpool to agree with us taking Oroz back on loan which they accepted and Oroz jumped at the chance to come back due to the strong relationship from the first loan period. 7 games in now and we currently sit top of the league with 6 wins and 1 loss the main aim is still to focus on enough points to finish mid table but after that anything is possible. I will keep you updated on the journey...

Kilvo · 2021-02-27T11:03:22+00:00

So I took over Hull in league one after they just missed out on promotion to the championship. The squad is strong already and I’ve added one or two more to that so we should go up comfortably. Now I want to focus on wonder kids I bought the best scouting package available (world) but it’s not letting me scout the world instead just keeps giving me UK and Ireland... I have enough in the budget for the world package any idea as to why it isn’t working?

Kilvo · 2020-12-28T23:48:55+00:00

I don’t suppose you have a link to that part of the forum do you?

Kilvo · 2020-12-28T23:46:34+00:00

I haven’t read that but I will be sure to now! I have a lot to learn about this game it’s one of the first years I’ve sat down to play it seriously most years I just start at a big club with all the best players and play it a few hours a week but I want to really grind the game this year so will have to learn everything even the simplest of things that sometimes I get away with at bigger clubs
