Just fired up the Beta, anyone played yet?
Media prediction is 11th, should be much harder than the last one. |  |

How did you do that second season?!
My first season was very similar to yours - think I got like 105 points. Second season I'm 10th at the moment and January's just about to end. Hoping to sneak into the playoffs. |
I think the four I mentioned developed so well in the first season and carried the second, that and Jackson’s goals.
Second season I had harwood-bellis and Liam delap on loan who smashed it.
Glad I spent on both Brewster and Sibley, both serious talents. | |

What is your tactic?
I sold Jackson to Dundalk for £210k at the start of my second season in the Championship. Reason being is that i had signed Niall Ennis on a free and didn't need another fast striker.
Ennis went on to score 25 goals in 41 league starts incl PO final. |  |

532 (32212) formation with a custom gegenpress.
Jackson’s stats are so rubbish but his pace terrorises. He’s even getting goals on the prem but he’s fourth choice and being sold end of season. His pace and acceleration have literally just dropped from 18 to 17.
Have hassled the board at every opportunity to better the facilities and youth recruitment and I’ve got some absolutely ridiculous talents. Best part of being Ipswich is having Brian Klug as HoY. | |

Love Brian Klug - basically use him as my assistant.
Jackson is playing well for me too - in contrast I signed Brewster on loan and he can't hit a barn door for some reason. Think he's got two in sixteen! He plays better out wide than up front for me.
Last night my save completely ruined itself anyway - or maybe I ruined it - I'd promised Flynn I would strengthen the goalkeeping position when he renewed his contract, and I've failed to do so, and now he's kicked off massively.
It's a bit frustrating because I feel like in real life I could explain what happened and he wouldn't be this unreasonable. That's two weeks down the drain! |  |

Is it worth buying?
I thought 2020 was an absolute cake walk with Ipswich, is it harder this time around? That said, I'm not sure I've got it in me right now to commit to a FM save right now to be fair. |  |

Can you not get Luke Chambers to have a word with him?
On FM2020 there was no problem he could not fix. I was giving him new contracts by the end just to use him as the team therapist. |  | | |

Haha - I would but he’s pissed off with me too because I didn’t find him a loan move! Even though I offered him to clubs about 300 times. | |

I don’t give him any jobs other than bringing the youths in, I don’t want him being hampered with other jobs 😂
Finished 6th and qualified for Europa league first season, did nothing in the cups. Brewster joint top scorer and I can’t afford what he wants so think either arsenal or athletico are going to activate his £35m release clause. Gutted.
Players can switch at the most minimal thing, I try to never put any promises into a contract, too easily forgotten about. | |

What i love is that Stephen Ward has a 3 Star role suitability for a Centre Forward. Not sure how that one got through, unless there is something Lambert isn't telling us. |  |

I think when he first came across to England he was a CF, before Mick converted him to a full back.....! Guess there are some remnants of that hanging about in his profile |  |

Joe, do you know if the BETA is an easier version of the full game?
Back to back titles, 6th first season in the prem and currently top after 8 games in the second. | |

No idea, but wouldn't have thought so - only way is if you have come up with something that exploits a part of the Match Engine as that won't be final version [Post edited 18 Nov 2020 11:20]

Using a simple custom gegenpress 5212 formation. Just seems way too easy, I could win the prem in fourth season which I’ve never done! | |

Started a save as Chippenham. Went old School no nonsense 442, quick wingers and fullback with target man/poacher pairing up top.
Won the FA Trophy and 4 points clear with 4 games to play so fingers crossed.
Only bug I’ve found is that a couple of times the shirt colours have changed to black or disappeared all together for my team during a match but that may be my laptop |  | | |
