Hi All!



I hope everyone here is well and getting as much time as they can to play the beautiful game on the best manager simulator around!

I have been away from playing FM for some time with personal issues taking a bit more priority for me, and to say I have missed being on a great save would be a bit of an understatement.

I am really looking forward to starting a new save on the next PC version of FM and I am getting everything in place to start that in earnest. Actually, I am kind of already thinking about the next save and I would love some advice on an idea I have.

When I start a save, it is often really exciting to think about how this character will fair and what the achievements will be, and then after a few seasons on a save I can observe how the career is panning out and start to wonder about what other aspects of this character I can explore.

I mean, when the manager profile is being created, I select what kind of playing career they had and it gets me thinking about how I can elaborate on that more and perhaps write a biography of that person, with details about their past playing experience and so on.

You see Football Manager is one hobby that I am looking to revive, but another hobby I want to put some more work into is my writing skills. I would love to know if it would be interesting to some of you here if I wrote a short biography alongside the progress I make on the game.

To add a little more meat to this concept, I aim to add a short Wikipedia style brief on a fictional coach, who will be the "main character' in a save that I aim to start fairly soon once FM26 is released (not to jinx it)!

Any and all feedback would be massively appreciated. If this turns out to be a good idea or not, I don't know and that is why I really would like your opinions on this before I get started.

Incidentally, if this is the wrong place to publish this work, do please let me know where this would be appreciated more!



Thanks in advance!
