The paperOnly reports what really happened.The board
Open The Board from the club hub to see how they feel about you. Their confidence runs from 0 to 100, in five moods: Backing, Steady, Watchful, Cold and Crisis. A new board starts out high.
- Results move it. A losing run moves it more.
- Beating a side from a higher tier earns extra credit.
- The end-of-season verdict counts too.
This season's brief
Each season's objective fits your club. Just promoted? Stay up. Just relegated? Bounce straight back. The board can add up to two goals beyond the league, such as giving young players matches, keeping cash in the bank or reaching the cup knockouts. Missing one of those extra goals is never held against you.
Once a season you can ask the board for funding. The grant is bigger when they're backing you, and asking costs a little confidence.
The press conference
The press conference opens one real hour before kickoff and closes at kickoff. After the match, the interview is open for an hour after the result.
