The last FM of its generation, due out on Monday 6th November I believe... Am I going crazy or shouldn't we have had the demo released by now? I'm sure it always used to come out about 3 or 4 weeks before the full release?

Beta will be out today or tomorrow if the rumours are true. Should be an interesting iteration before a planned major overhaul next year.

I'm liking the look of the new set-piece stuff. (Can't comment on the match engine stuff as I play with only commentary - Just like in the good old Champ Manager days!)

Just downloaded the beta, the board are only expecting a top-half finish.
We've got £12m in the bank, £1.5m available for transfers.
Burger & Jun Ho have 4.5 star potential (Burger valued at £10m). The young lads have a few decent ones, the obvious being Tezgel (4.5 star potential) and Lowe (5 star potential).

How are people finding the game? I think it feels great myself, don't know if it's just my imagination (and I haven't played since FM22) but it all feels much smoother & faster. It feels like the scouting system has had a huge overhaul aswell, I used to get so tired of asking my scouts to go & find me some U21's from the Croatian league & they'd come back with some 28yo Spanish bloke from Real Madrid who was worth £100m, now they actually go & find me what I asked for.
How are people doing injury wise? I dunno if I just got an unlucky save or what but I am constantly getting injuries. I'm halfway through September & I've only just had Travers & Burger make their debuts as they'd both been injured (Travers got injured THREE times before he'd even made it onto the pitch for me!) I've had to send Hoever back to Wolves as he broke his leg & would be out for 9 months, signed a lad to be his replacement & he's already out injured. I signed Danny Rose to give me some cover at left-back & yup, you guessed it, he's out injured for 7 weeks... And they're just the major 'month+' injuries, I've also got a never ending stream of 'week here, week there' type injuries.
Injuries aside the team are doing well though, currently sat top of the league, Wesley, Mmaee & Lowe are all banging in goals for fun, Haks & Bae are assist machines. It's all going well, I'm enjoying it.

It's all going well, I'm enjoying it. I've just finished my first season on the Your World mode. Ended up losing in the play-offs on penalties to Southampton which was gutting but I've made so much money in the following summer. Sold Wilmot for £20m, Laurent for £10m, one free for £6.25m and another for £9m. The game just keeps throwing money at me! Didn't find FM23 engaging at all it felt very stale but this one seems absolutely brilliant so far.

I've not had any injury problems at all but I haven't been playing with our real transfers I've been on Your World mode. Maybe we just did sign really injury prone players..

Could anyone do me a favour and tell me the nation with the lowest league ranking that qualifies for champions league please?
I fancy doing a random foreign league save this year but haven’t got the game yet.

I've only made two signings -both freebies- and in December the club is now £7.5m in the red!) On the Your World mode I'm on you start off with £9m and about £140k wage budget to spend but obviously no new players and all the players who left last summer are gone (except Nick Powell who's extended to 2024 for some reason?) so it's fairly accurate to how we approached things this summer. My 2nd summer I had around £8m given by the board again but I did some heavy sales across my first and second season like selling Jacob Brown for 5m first season, Tyrese for 3.7m in Jan and then in 2024 summer I sold Josh Laurent for 10m, Wilmot for 20m and some random frees I signed I sold for around £15m. 3rd summer in Prem I got about £30m to spend but as you can see my wage budget is 300k p/w less than anyone else in the league so I've had to do some seriously playful balancing of the books. Sadly, I'm getting absolutely steamrolled after 10 games. Had to stop playing for now to try and think about how to approach the situation. Got about 20m in the budget for January but only 90k wages to spend and all the players who'd make a big impact for me want 100k+ wages or won't speak to me.

What an end to the season that was! Norwich completely fell apart (Thankfully!) We tried our best to mess it up, we were beating Plymouth 3 games from the end but conceded a late equaliser, went into the Southampton game knowing a victory would secure promotion, we were 2-0 up at half-time & it was party time... Then Southampton went & scored four in the second half! All came down to the final day at home to Bristol City, a nuts 4 minute spell from the 27th to 31st minute saw us score three goals en route to a 5-0 thumping & the Championship title! (Thanks to us having a better GD than Sunderland & Leeds who finished level with us on points!) Team is a mess, I'm not even sure how many players we've actually got for next season as we've got soooo many players who're leaving the club over the summer. That was something which I had to set the wheels in motion for incase we didn't get promoted as we're over £25m in the red... Board have given me £35m & 650k p/w to try & build a squad to survive in the top-flight, it's gonna be a slog!
