On this weeks episode of The FM Show podcast, we're joined by creator of The League, Zealand, and the one and only, Stanz. Zealand has managed to organise 20 creators to take part in an online draft and league, which is a massive challenge. We struggle to co-ordinate just 3 of us to the do the Patreon Network save. We talk about how the idea came together and how Zealand has been able to merge two communities by bringing the Football Manager and EAFC communities together to compete against each other. Stanz is a huge content creator, and Football Manager fan, and having recently started streaming FM, so we're keen to hear from him as to how he found the community and what he hopes for the future.

Football Manager Needs To Be More Simplistic The FM Show Podcast Episode 96 With Football Manager 26 potentially 6 months away, TJ, RDF Tactics and Si Maggio take some time to ponder on what the next instalment of the game might / might not include. We speculate on the upcoming release of the next Football Manager title, emphasizing the need for better communication from developers to the community. The conversation critiques the game's mechanics for being overly complicated and proposes the introduction of new game modes to enhance user experience. We also discuss the balance between realism and enjoyment in gaming, highlighting community expectations and desires for future developments. We express our concerns about the intelligence of AI in the game, the realism of player transfers, and the importance of developing young talent. The discussion also touches on the evolution of tactics and how the game reflects real-life football dynamics, particularly in terms of player movement and market realities.
