Challenges The Amateur Challenge

[BatiGoal]

The Amateur Challenge 

 

This challenge was first created and played by @Ashez in 2012 at a time that the game only counted a single amateur team. Only 1. Seven versions later in FMM19 the number of amateur teams increased to 9. And now in FMM20 we're handed a staggering 48! amateur teams. That's a very large number of teams with FMM's (respectfully) shittiest players. An increase primarily due to the inclusion of the Danish league as well as extra Portuguese and Welsh amateur clubs to test your managerial skills. So I thought an update was in order to give the community another reason to play this game.

The objective - the challenge is very simple to understand yet not so simple to execute. You're starting out as an amateur manager and need to build your amateur club's reputation as well your own. Pick one of the available 48 amateur teams, that'll be either in Denmark, Portugal, Scotland or Wales - see list below, and climb up the ranks all the way up to the nation's top division to become the very best - win the Top Division to complete The Amateur Challenge.

That'll be 47 before long. Not exactly what you'd call a shortage either way. I'll update as soon as they turn (semi-)professional ingame. Thanks mate!

How's that for a flavor of real-life FMM turning amateurs into pros 👍 

I refuse your invitation to go down the emotional channel, like you always do 🤭, and celebrate their soon to be historical achievement.

Thanks. Same here, it's just one of those challenges that I must attempt. It's imo what FMM is all about.

FM as a whole franchise I would say, but indeed.
