See Nigel's post. The FM researcher posts unofficial updates that are pretty much bang up to date, as he needs to keep on top of it.
Am I the only one who gets a tinge of sadness every time I see a promising young Irish player get released in FM?
On a side note, Damien Duff's just been released by Fulham. I'll let you know if he comes to Rovers or ends up in MLS/lower leagues.
duff and keane always seem to end up at dundalk on my fm saves
Never seen Keane return to Ireland but I've seen Duff at Dundalk a few times in FM13.
in my last game keane went to dundalk then pats and then retired after playing for sligo
while duff had 2 seasons with dundalk and then joined town as my u19 manager
Haha yeah I've had Robbie as U19 coach a couple of times but never saw him play. Maybe he's more likely to come back in FM14.
just looked on my current save an awful lot of irish internationals ended up playing there last few years in ireland, ive currently stokes trying to break into my first team but my 2 20 year old strikers seem to be determined to keep him on the bench
Haha yeah, they seem to be a lot more likely to come to the LOI than they are in real life. Caleb Folan joined Dundalk at the start of the 2014 season in mine and a lot of lads like Stephen Hunt return when they're let go in the summer.
ah well i don't need to look for irish internationals now ive got my bored to go pro and allow me scout the world, time to go to Brazil and find some young lads that never heard of the LOI
Summer 2015 in my game now. Duff signed for me after he left Fulham but Keane was still looking for 20k so he went to Celtic instead and regained the Ireland captaincy after Dunne retired. I also got Kieren Westwood on a free, narrowly missed out on Stokes and decided not to sign up Sean St Ledger.
ive stokes at the moment, had St Ledger and he was useless also i put Stephen Ireland in the useless pile of players i had, Two of my regens have just been selected for the irish senior squad the only 2 LOI players in the Team
I have Westwood and O'Shea in the senior team, and strangely Luke Byrne is in and around the senior squad. In my 2013 I had a load of great regens, like Barry McNally who signed for Celtic for £20m and Anto Gill who Southampton snapped up for a bargain £8.75m.
You have to love how thorough they are in FM sometimes. Nowhere else in the world would you have regens coming out with names like Anto and Philly. I look forward to seeing Fabios and Martys emerging in years to come.
2014-05-08_00005.jpg2014-05-08_00003.jpg theres my 2 international regens, also just to add to add to the fm names Dessie
Dessie Dixon, sounds like a LOI legend in the making.
2 and a half seasons with Athlone then i nicked him on a free and 7 and half seasons on, he's the best CB in the league and every jan at least 1 spl side come looking for him but they wont offer me enough money
in my current game after 13 consecutive titles in scotland celtic have been dethroned by.............................. Hibs
Hope for the Hibees yet!
Speaking of Hibs, I just realised yesterday my current Shamrock Rovers team who made the Champions League is propped up by two players from the Hamilton Accies side that relegated them: Paul George and Ziggy Gordon.
im proud to say ive now signed in the july window a DR from Real Madrid, MC from Barcelona and a useful AMC from utd while also getting the main Sweden striker on loan from Chelsea,
