    Is Football Manager good? I’d like to try it but I’m kinda an idiot and don’t know much about tactics/formations/etc. Is it newcomer friendly or will I get my ass kicked?

      For real, though, I wonder what this job would actually entail. I imagine it’d be glorified work experience because Bromley are doing well and Andy Woodman seems a very good manager himself, but I guess it could include some analysis work and the like.

    This is actually super interesting. Im a former Bromley resident, go to their home games when I can and love footie man. Weirdly my save last year was Cray Valley PM and im going to watch them in their FA Cup replay tomorrow eve.

    Ill definitely give this a go if only for a bit of fun.

      Edit: I only buy the game every 2 years and this year was supposed to be a dead year. Alas the marketing has worked and I will buy the game lol.

      They seem to be going big on marketing this year - there’s been a few FM stories on the BBC website in the last week or so. Wonder if they’re having to pull out the stops after Miles basically admitted this year’s game wasn’t going to be anything groundbreaking as they’re more focused on next year.

        This is probably the most complete FM prior to the switch to Unity and build from the ground up.

        Personally I’m wary of the Unity version so I’m going to get this and skip next year’s.

    I won the UCL with Everton, Dobbin scored in the final.

    I don’t need to apply, they can just offer me the job based on that.

    I’ve taken Chelsea to 3rd as of January of 2024 and we’ve turned a profit so far.

    I haven’t even cheated.

    Honestly sometimes I don’t understand how we’re so shit. Then I have to make substitutions.
