I cannot find the way how to use custom schedules in the team training. Exported, saved,imported,there is no way to chose custom schedule,just a preset ones. HELP!!!

Firstly, I must say that I am so underwhelmed with FM26. It took me the better part of yesterday just to get through all those tile clicking exercises to reach my first competitive game!
Onto the issues at hand:
1. Your link to "footballmanager.com/help" takes you into a maze where one cannot find the 'portal' to report known issues.
2. In game play, I attempted to loan in a player which had a Mandatory Fee of 58m euro. All was accepted and seemed fine until signing in the Loanee - I had to pay the 'future' mandatory fee upfront!!

Having played the game since the original CM nearly ruined by A levels it’s hard to be critical, however SI must question the ability of their staff having had 2 years to produce a game.

the shear number of is basic issues is woeful, Miles must be updating his CV

the game relies on the modding community to make it playable.

this is not a new issue, generally it takes several months to get the game in a place where it’s playable

its like if the only shop in England was Asda, and the continually serve up poor quality (they do btw) and there is no alternative

That's how it's always been.
