As we roll into 2025 I find myself wondering about the future accessibility of sports media.
Opinion pieces and indepth articles are harder to find than ever with most locked away behind a paywall.
Even fan media seems to hit a target number then switch to patron.

Gambling ads in football is a plague. Shirt sponsors, official sponsors, TV ads, even live scores apps etc. Everything is geared to increasing shady betting companies' profits. No wonder the addiction is rife in fans. Ban. It. Now.

NEW #FM24 BLOG POST!
In this post, I talk about a curious Football Manager 2024 bug where retired players get 'regenerated'... but it's not what you might think.

FM24: The ‘Regen Bug’
Let's talk about a potential newgen bug I've found on Football Manager 2024. In most cases, any players that FM generates - also known as 'newgens' - are entirely separate from and unrelated to any other player in the database. When Cristiano Ronaldo retires, he isn't instantly replaced with another skilful Portuguese forward who has his same elite potential. On FM24, though, some of these newly-generated players can develop...

With their Next Gen model, Juventus have quietly established one of the best talent pipelines in European football – and now they have a coach in Thiago Motta to enable it. Here's how they did it.

Anyone pining for old-school wing-play, watch Jude Bonnar for Celtic in the UEFA Youth League.
Left-footed and playing on the left, he turned the first half against Dinamo Zagreb into a crossing simulator.
Refreshing directness and purpose to his play.

On Sunday I posted about how I'd taken over at 1860 Munich with them bottom of the league. I managed to keep them up but I decided it wasn't the save for me. I started a new save in Portugal as Estoril, I'm going to start a thread below where I'll post updates #fm24 ⬇️

Lately I've seen a few #footballmanager players have success playing pragmatically, even outright defensively, which feels fresh. I don't know if it's people just wanting to do something different, the #FM25 delay some bad rep from the gegenpress world cup, or just coincidence but I like it! #FM24
