Besty 4 Posted June 8, 2008 Share Posted June 8, 2008 All you have to do to complete the challenge is join a team beginning with a letter of the alphabet, win at least one trophy, then move on to a different letter and repeat, until you've done all 26 in the alphabet! For this challenge there is no points system, there is no outright winner, simply completing the challenge is an achievement! Due to the fact that in theory this could take a minimum of 26 seasons to complete, the database requirements are very loose, choose whatever your computer can support, and you can give yourself the maximum experience at the start of the game to make getting new jobs easier. BUT, due to the fact that it's the only team i can find in the world with it as a starting letter, we're all going to start at the same club... Athletic Club Skoda Xanthi Xanthi play in the Greek Super League, the top tier in Greek football. While a fairly small club in comparison to the giants of Greek football, they do have one recognisable face in their ranks, former Everton striker Tomasz Radzinski happy.gif This is going to be a seriously long term challenge. You can take jobs at both club and national sides, so you can down two birds with one stone if you're at both a club and national team at the same time. I'm going to give this a crack because i fancy a journeyman game, and will report back with my progress! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Besty 4 Posted June 8, 2008 Share Posted June 8, 2008 I'm about 20 games in with Xanthi, sitting 8th I think. Just hoping I can win the cup and move on to the next team... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scottish Mag 3 Posted June 9, 2008 Share Posted June 9, 2008 I am currently playing a game as Dumbarton. I won the 3rd division in my first season (undefeated largely due to Celtic being my parent club) and also won the Challenge Cup having to be three 1st division sides to win it. Now into my second season I am sitting top of the 2nd Division with only about 10 games to go though there is only around 6 points seperating the top four sides. I also retained the Challenge Cup..

khay 10 Posted June 10, 2008 Author Share Posted June 10, 2008 I have finished 2nd twice now! Finshed third, but beat Chelsea in both the league and FA cup and Ajax to win the champions league, not bad for such a long wait. So all out for the league next season.

Besty 4 Posted June 10, 2008 Share Posted June 10, 2008 Nobody gonna join me on that challenge? Currently in 2nd season with Xanthi after finishing 8th last season and not winning the cup. I'm 3rd atm and doing well, hoping for a good cup run so I get the silverware. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

khay 10 Posted June 16, 2008 Author Share Posted June 16, 2008 I've just beat chelsea in three finals in a row. I 01/02 Now to win the bastard league. Added Ramos to my team for 22 million. Been on the look out for a new keeper however a 16 year old regen has come through with 15/16 (Rated better than Harper) in key areas and won the charity shield on his debut.

Brock Manson 0 Posted June 18, 2008 Share Posted June 18, 2008 Belgian league title with Club Brugge Big tits? Football Manager and porn. Sounds like a perfect evening. In the midst of downloading some more as well. Went back to my Roma game. Just shelled out £30.5million on a left back (Rannie Sabino Fernandes), and £15million on Gonzalo Castro as a replacement for Dani Alves in the summer window. Also signed wonderkid Sascha Weber; a product of my youth academy when I was at Bayern: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jimbo 174 Posted June 22, 2008 Share Posted June 22, 2008 I retained the league title with Brugge only losing one match in the league all season, got the Belgian Cup final got toasted 6-0, I'm still fuming ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Mighty Hog 508 Posted June 30, 2008 Share Posted June 30, 2008 Got the PL, CL and FA Cup with Mk Dons then decided I wanted a new challenge so I left and took over at Messina in Serie A. Doesn't sound like a huge one after bringing MK Dons all the way up but I've very rarely ventured out of managing in England. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swindont 0 Posted July 5, 2008 Share Posted July 5, 2008 Im in 2017 with Swindon Town, won the league, Newcaste were second and Manchester United are 1 point of the relegation zone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Mighty Hog 508 Posted July 21, 2008 Share Posted July 21, 2008 Won Serie A, the CL and League Cup with Messina in my 4th season with them. Had some decent season before that though always finished in a CL position since I took over which is great considering they just wanted to survive Serie A and avoid relegation. Won the European Championships and World Cup with England but only managed to make the final of the Confederations Cup. Now it's World Cup time again (2022).

The Mighty Hog 508 Posted July 29, 2008 Share Posted July 29, 2008 Well played Jimbo, managed my second treble in a row with Messina. Might head off to France or Holland in a couple of seasons now my work in Italy is done. Don't really like the Spanish league with all the registering lark and don't get me started on the baffling MLS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
