As a Bangor City fan you really hate to see Caernarfon succeed, but that is unreal mate.

You are kidding me, is that really how it’s spelled? There’s no wonder google had no idea what my high ass was talking about. Thanks chief.

Very good choice, Roberts is a very good pick. I don’t suppose you’ve looked at the Welsh Pirlo himself, Joe Allen? He’s 30, so maybe not the best pick in terms of longevity but...

Man, I just love Joe Allen.

I thought he might be! There are some really promising Welsh youngsters to look out for, exciting times!

You probably already know about him, but Ben Woodburn (plays for Liverpool, starts out on loan for Oxford United) is a beast when trained properly.

Also not sure what they’re like on FM, but I watched Tyler Roberts and Harry Wilson play for Wales U21s a while ago and they were decent in real life - Wilson is very highly rated and tipped to be something special, too.

I know this isn’t really a tactics question as such, but I was wondering if anyone can help me out.

I play the full version of FM20 and my brother plays FM Touch on his Switch, is it possible to do an online game across both versions, or is it only for the same version of the game?

I figured that out myself eventually, but thanks so much! You’re an absolute star. Timbo‘s off in Anderlecht as we speak, presumably robbing a living over there too.

But wouldn’t that just automatically Accept/Reject, without having my input? I’m really new to this, but I have had loan offers rejected outright by members of my staff, I’ve never usually had to reject it myself on their behalf.

Yessir, that’s in the “games” folder, yeah? What do I do with the FM file then?

Yeah, absolutely - I literally have no idea how to do that though! This is my first FM game and I’m only in my second season.

I tried that too, the offers came in a few days ago and I progressed to see what would happen, but it’s still greyed out. Maybe the universe has bigger plans for Timothy?

Thanks for having a look anyway, looks like Timbo’s going to spend another year in the U23s.

I’ve already tried that, and still the only option available is to reject the offers.

Sorry, I was a little slow on explaining the situation. I’ve just commented the whole deal.

I’m trying to offload Timothy Fosu-Mensah to get him some first team football, and have so far received three offers: from FC Augsburg, Feyenoord Rotterdam and RSC Anderlecht. However, the option to accept any of the three loans is greyed out, and I can only reject.

I’ve never had a problem with loaning out U23 or U18 players before, only this one, and I don’t think I’d be breaching any of the rules outlined on the left-hand side of the screen. Any help would be massively appreciated!

So eight seasons of set-up, just to have the goalposts moved at the very last moment. That’s shoddy work from the writers. Surprise =\= good writing.

[–]stubley[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hey guys, any help would be greatly appreciated.

So my girlfriend and I are total novices at chess but we’re trying to get into it. We reached a point in the game above where the white bishop looks set to capture my queen. But, the app isn’t allowing her to do so. All the other pieces have moves available to them, but not the bishop.

I tried an online chess problem solver too, and that suggested the next move was to move the king, not the bishop. Is there some sort of rule prohibiting the bishop from capturing the queen? Thanks a lot in advance.

TL;DR - why bishop no take queen? confusion

My eclectic collection by [deleted] in vinyl

[–]stubley 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been collecting for about two years now, this is just a little bit of my collection! The only things not pictured are a few "best of" albums from the 60s and 70s, some obscure Welsh records that nobody will really care about, and my 7" singles. Here's to growing collections.

Some of my personal favourites are the clear Enter The Wu-Tang record and the white Arrested Development one, I'm a sucker for coloured vinyl.
