			<title>jillianorr - Bristol Cannabis Club | The 4/20 Challenge</title>
			<description><![CDATA[Happy holidays to you too! Building a squad for Bristol Cannabis Club sounds like an intriguing challenge indeed! With a budget of £420,000 and the unique backdrop of a 4/20-themed league, the possibilities for assembling a dynamic team are endless. The Hotbox Arena and Reefer Road training ground add an extra layer of novelty to the mix. It's fascinating how the club's affiliation with Las Vegas Lights FC, pioneers in the partnership between professional sports and cannabis businesses, adds a distinctive flavor to the venture. With careful scouting and strategic signings, this team could...]]></description>

			<title>mrmull84 - Redressing the balance</title>
			<description><![CDATA[I've been messing around the past few days whilst bored at &quot;work&quot;. The top 12 leagues and Scotland have had a bit of a rejig. The big 5 leagues, Players still at their existing clubs. Finances redistributed to top flight teams and for the teams to cope with their wage bills<br />

<br />
Today's Hometown Challenge comes from EspressoCatPlays who asked for their hometown club of Rönninge/Salem Fotboll, a Swedish team in Division 6 (8th tier). As requested by EspressoCatPlays, I've boosted the facilities giving the club a good source of talent for your journey up the divisions. Shoutout to Sangue Blu for creating the database making the Swedish lower leagues playable! For the downloadable database see the links below:<br />

<br />
Today's challenge features AFC Tottenham, the newly created supporters' club for Tottenham Hotspur! The club has an affiliation link with Tottenham Hotspur, making it much easier to loan players from them to help you rise up the divisions. My challenge for you is to use as many loan players and ex-players from Spurs to work your way up to the Premier League and overtake your big brothers in the top flight!

			<title>Astles - Red Bull Amsterdam?</title>
			<description><![CDATA[I've became bored of my current save and have been flirting with the idea of starting one of HeadCoachFM's Red Bull challenges today. I've been thinking of possible teams for this challenge, and came up with the idea of Red Bull Amsterdam. Taking over Almere City FC, in the Eerste Divisie. Almere is 20 miles from Amsterdam, and could become direct competitors with the top dogs of the Eredivise with the takeover from Red Bull. However, I am a complete rookie with creating my own databases and logos so this is a problem.<br />

Anybody liking the idea of this and could make it possible, drop me a...]]></description>

<br />
Today's Red Bull Challenge comes from u/Rhysy34 on Reddit who requested Red Bull Sunderland! The goal of this challenge is to overtake the club's fierce rivals, Newcastle United, who have been given enormous finances as a result of the potential Saudi takeover! While Newcastle will spend big on older, high-profile players, your challenge is to use the Red Bull model of youth recruitment &amp; development to rise up the divisions and beat your rivals to the coveted Premier League title. For the downloadable database and logo, see the links below:<br />

<br />
Today's Hometown Challenge comes from Guilherme Farinha who requested the now-extinct Odivelas Futebol Clube! I've placed the club in the 1ª Divisão da Associação de Futebol de Lisboa (6th tier of Portugal), giving them a reputation, morale, and facilities boost as well. I've also given the club an Underwriter sugar daddy to help keep the club financially stable in those first few years, though I've included a separate database without that option if you want to really test yourself in the lower leagues. The links for both databases can be found below. Also a big shoutout to Sangue Blu for...]]></description>

<div style="text-align:center"><strong>Transfer Market</strong></div>
<br />
Realistically a budget of 22 Million is not going to stretch for what I need which is:<br />
<br />
First Team RB<br />
First Team Forward<br />
First Team Central Midfielder<br />
<br />
I will see if I can wheel and deal at least 2 of the above over the line.<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align:center"><strong>Setbacks</strong></div>
<br />
Found a suitable Forward target that would be a considerable improvement of Jolinton for only 12.5M and what do you know. (Michy Batshuayi FYI)<br />

Crystal Palace &amp; Man Utd are after him also so I guess my number 1 target is gone already.<br />

<br />
Unchanged squad from Leicester game, a few tactical tweaks made, more positive focus, shorter passing focus, slow distribution from GK and preference to roll it out. Hopefully by bringing the ball down onto the floor this will encourage more players to play the ball on the ground and stop the long balls into the flanks where we are either cutting inside and losing the ball or crossing to an empty box.<br />

Danny Rose conceded a penalty on the 12 minute so...]]></description>

<div style="text-align:center"><strong>FA Cup 3rd Round Draw</strong></div>

I was hoping for a decent FA cup run but that's totally out of the window with an away draw to Tottenham. Scheduled for the 4th January<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align:center"><strong>Bournemouth (H) predicted 3 points</strong></div>
<br />
With West Ham having played their game in hand and winning against Arsenal this has moved Bournemouth to the bottom of the pile. This is turning into a must win game for both teams. <br />
<br />
The injury list has improved a lot Miguel Almiron is available but unfit and will start from the bench. Lazaro is back and is much needed at the moment with the problems in RB. Matty Longstaff and Toure...]]></description>
