Welcome back! Another two seasons down in Gibraltar and the progression is really ramping up, the TV deal is increasing, the clubs are now putting a small amount of that money to use and, as the title suggest, the quality of player we can entice is improving as well! 32/33 Season Once again it was...

(FM23) Build A Nation – Part 6 – Show Me The Money!!!
Welcome back. Ten seasons are now over in Gibraltar and it's safe to say shit has got real, it's totally kicked off and things have started progressing a lot quicker.

(FM23) Build A Nation – Part 5 – European Adventures

I have to admit, I am absolutely loving this save but it has been real hard work, domestically we are now utterly dominating and we are progressing really well in Europe but I can feel it is going to start to get a lot more challenging, players want more money, the kids I...

(FM23) The Nearly Men – 2037/38 Season – Napoli
Compared to normal it's been a pretty quiet Summer transfer window, a lot of players left, most of them youth and reserve lads but we did lose a couple of first-teamers. Temel (Striker), Verbist (AM), Bustos (CM) all left, none of them had really set the world on fire so I decided to cash in.... Continue Reading →
(FM23) The Nearly Men – 2036/37 – Napoli
This Summer for me was all about bringing the age of this squad down. At the end of the previous campaign we had 8 players in our first team squad over 32, all were still decent but they struggled throughout the last season with fitness issues and injuries, they also were on huge wages which...
