FM Athlete
Hello and welcome along to my Football Manager blog. Here I’ll be sharing updates from my FM saves, along with the occasional post on other aspects of the game as well. I’ve been playing this game for over 20 years now and can safely say it still gives me as much joy now as it did at the start.
Away from Football Manager I’m a husband to a patient wife and father to three children. I spend most of my spare time coaching youth football, playing men’s 6-a-side twice a week, and squeezing in the occasional run as well.
Thanks for stopping by. Feel free to follow me on Twitter and FM Slack too.
