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 ⬇️
Selling Cole Palmer is up there with one of the worst transfer decisions made

#FM24 #Golazzo Part 4: Challenging Serie A's Big Boys. #AtalantaBC's chairman sells a big-name wonderkid but his former teammates flourish. And the goals of Vincenzo Montella see them surprisingly challenge for European places.

Golazzo | Part 4 | Challenging Serie A’s Big Boys
Atalanta BC mixed it with the big boys of Serie A and finished just outside the top half in their first season in the top flight. And the club's board backed manager Roberto Lombardi by agreeing to his requests for improved training and youth facilities, youth recruitment and junior coaching over the summer of 1996 (2025).

Was just driving home and I had an Asda delivery van in front of me, coming the other way was a Tesco delivery van. They flashed their lights at one another as a sign of mutual respect. I imagine it's pretty much the same as when Messi and Ronaldo drive past one another

#FM24 #Golazzo Part 3: Competing In The Best League In The World. A young #AtalantaBC side step up to #SerieA and apply themselves well, even claiming a couple of big scalps against Inter and Roma en route to a solid mid-table finish.

Golazzo | Part 3 | Competing In The Best League In The World
In this save, we're embarking on a nostalgic adventure with the brand new 1994/95 database from The Mad Scientist, which is currently available in Early Access mode. Atalanta secured an immediate return to the best league in the world by blowing away Serie B with over 100 goals and points. But they faced a big step up in quality if they were to meet the board's objective of surviving in Serie A - which wasn't helped by a poor financial situation.

One of us has to try and knock @fmaddict.bsky.social off his pedestal. It ain't gonna be @bassyboy.bsky.social or @cameronfm.bsky.social so that means it up to either myself or @thelastthrow.bsky.social

November 24, 2024 at 3:18 PM
Southampton deserve to be relegated playing like that. Surely Russell Martin knows they need to change their approach? Feels like he's more bothered about his own footballing principles and how he's viewed as a manager than what's best for the team

Just catching up with the goals from yesterdays Premier League games. Cunha's first for Wolves is insane. The assist, then thea first touch, absolutely world class. Although if my defence gets split like that on #fm24 my laptops in danger

I've tried to apply a bit of John Foster Dulles's logic to my Hércules #FM24 save, and my latest post on the forum dives into his wisdom and draws comparisons over 12 months. Some interesting results, to say the least!

One way to get the brain clogs turning during these cold months is by trying to remember what happened in the past season for a forum update.

Well, I think I managed to remember it all, the most important parts anyway!
