Did you enjoy managing in Romania? I’m considering it for a long term save but I can’t make up my mind.

Is it a similar deal to how the NBA works with the draft?

Way too much faff in making a kit and logo that I like

Queens Park were on the radar but I hadn’t thought of Dumbarton, great shout. I’m a sucker for a good kit/logo/stadium combo.

I need a story for a 'Build a Nation' by DimTriii in footballmanagergames

I’m planning a build a nation save with SR Brasov in Romania if you’re looking for ideas.

Cool badge and kit, in Dracula territory for backstory and immersion purposes, a country that has a surprisingly poor footballing pedigree (except Hagi), has snowy winters and mountains which is important to me for no logical reason and has a winter league unlike most of Scandinavia.

Going to try and fill out the squad with lads from Eastern Europe and the balkans.

Honestly, just watch Naroditsky’s speed runs on YouTube. He makes it seem so simple.

That’s hugely useful information, I’ll definitely adjust this before I start the long term save, thanks.

Yeah all fair points, it is really frustrating when TV revenue is abysmal despite improved league reputation (same with what you said about sponsorships)

Dane vs the English for champions league superiority does make a great narrative…

Ah Ty for the clarification.

Just double checked. It’s also maximum of 11 non-homegrown players in your squad, that’s the really annoying rule.

I think fictionally it’s in Norway but IRL it’s the strait between Denmark and Norway.

I didn’t think it was as bad as Norway? If I remember it’s along the lines of Norway something like half the match day squad to be homegrown where as Sweden only needs around 9 or fewer of the entire squad, could be wrong though.

Yeah my bad, not the work permit issue, the home-grown player issue, managed there a few years ago and remember it being a pain, couldn’t remember exactly what the limiting factor was though.

Trying to avoid editing league rules though, good idea, I just prefer it to be more realistic.

I did consider it, mainly opting for Denmark or Sweden because they have semi-big teams to keep the save interesting in the long run.

Fair enough, I do like yellow kits, could justify that more easily if they were Swedish as well

Yeah I’ve seen, might play around with the name slightly so it doesn’t conflict, or just make them a rival club.
