Your dad?
How are you loading it up? Reckons it's still unavailable on Steam for me.
Waff's Dad could well be younger than me.
He's from Dundee, of course he's younger than you.
He's 11 years older. Disappointing. As is not being able to get on it on Steam. If he wants to do his son and someone he doesn't know a favour, let me know.
He uses my Steam account so I’ve got access. Been playing FM22 without even realising FM23 was on there ready to go
Apparently players get it early and he’s mates with Arbroath legend Bobby Linn.
Class. Now to sort out them ugly logos.
Good to see the eyebrow department have been hard at work.
Is there a Touch beta?
I don't believe so.
Give us a sense of the difficulty, Waff. Miles has been doing bits in the media suggesting it's much tougher.
I’ma busy man. I don’t have time to talk to my deputy assistant goalkeeping fitness coach for a week with pre defined responses.
I can install it, does that mean we have a beta? DO WE HAVE A BETA?
Yeah it’s out.
We do.
Releasing at the same time as the COD early release. Ballsy
I bought from Fanatical as a bunch of the content creators had discount codes. Its installing now.
Who are you gonna start with Danny?
What’s the restrictions on the beta? It usually stops you at a certain date right?
I thought it went on forever, you just might need to start a new game to get the full benefit of changes for the final release. No idea if that's how it still works mind.
I usually go with Crewe but I think I want to save that for once the game is actually out of beta (not that they will change much).
I had scoured the leagues and was thinking about someone like Derby or Sheff Wed. Either that or take it easy while getting used to the game and just use United or Newcastle.
I think in recent years it's just the full game but one patch behind the full release.
Yeah pretty sure thats the case.

What else is missing
Working on this already:
6-1 friendly win v Atletico and 4-0 first game v Everton.
Cheers Baz. Couldn't see anything on SortitoutSI and playing as Man UFC or whatever it was was seriously annoying.
I've just holidayed for two years and the full on Champions League new nonsense format from the 24/25 season is present and correct.
36 teams in one league table, playing 8 matches each.
Need a custom database to reverse it
8 games into the season and 5 draws with 3 losses. Going spectacularly well, haven’t even had a tough schedule.
For those like me who skip some games, the wannachup instant result skin is out...

New shiny graphics are fun.
Christ, Southampton players are all a bit sensitive. Had to work my bollocks off to keep their dynamics relatively high but went on holiday for a month when the World Cup kicked off and came back to them all being in the huff.
Slightly turned the form round, tactics against good teams seems to be useful (low block) and have beaten Arsenal, Chelsea and Man Utd whilst not being battered too badly by Haaland. Can’t quite tweak it well enough against the mid table teams though so still in 14th. Points are quite tight up to 8th though.
Someone needs to come up with a corner tactic pronto. Rather disappointed at the lack of goals from JWP on set pieces (20 for corners and FKs)
Does hitting it into the near post no longer work?
I’ve got them set as near post and haven’t scored from a single corner yet. Might try it on mixed to see if it changes anything.
In the QF of the League Cup having beaten Arsenal and Spurs away from home. Now been drawn away to Chelsea when Brighton, Fulham, Bolton and West Brom were all available
I'm playing him and he's scored 11 in 7 starts lol.
Same every year, very attacking counter-press fucks the game when your team gets used to the tactic. Low block + very high defensive line is wonderful.
Rocking this:
Implemented after Bournemouth loss which was with a typical 4123 (DM, 2Ws). Team started properly gelling with it last 5 games:
AI seems to adapt more, so when they go a goal or two down they get very attacking. But then it leaves 5 of my lads up top and we just rinse 'em on the break.
Hasn't gone as well for me...
Get them logos changed
