Release Notes

Added

• The Power Map comes alive — every faction now plays its own game: the federation, media, referees, agents, rival clubs, your board and your fans all react to what you do, with real consequences.
• A living boardroom — directors, board motions and mandates shape what you're allowed to do; ignore them at your peril.
• Your terrace, alive — supporter trust, ultras and attendance now respond to results, ticket prices and how you run the club.
• Rivalries that bite — grudges, derbies, sabotage and manager poaching from rival factions.

Fixed

• No more freezes — squashed the freeze that could hit when starting or continuing a career right after visiting Settings, plus the earlier first-launch Settings→menu hang.
• Shop power-ups now deliver exactly the advertised benefit.
• Smoother turns and season-end processing.

Added

• Stay up to date — when a critical update is out, the app now lets you know and takes you straight to the store, so everyone plays on the same, most stable version.

Changed & Improved

• A more realistic match engine — results are decided by squad quality, fitness and tactics, not off-pitch tricks.
• Home advantage that counts — every club gets a real edge at home, even smaller sides with modest crowds.
• Substitutions & fatigue matter — players tire in the second half, so rotation and squad depth now shape the result.
• Goalkeepers matter — a world-class keeper keeps more clean sheets, without inflating your attack.
• Stronger injuries & red cards — setbacks bite harder, making your Medical Centre worth the investment.
• Off-pitch boosts (board, fans, referee) now tilt a match without ever deciding it on their own.
• Match stats — possession, shots, corners and fouls — now reflect how the game actually played out.

Added

• Talk to your players — praise or criticise them in direct one-on-one conversations to shape morale, form and your relationship with the squad.
• Player attributes & development — every player now has a full attribute set you can study, and you can train players with a chosen focus to make them grow over time.
• Pending Transfers — deals agreed outside the transfer window are parked and settle automatically when the window opens, with clear outcome alerts.

Changed & Improved

• Realistic transfer market — incoming bids now match each rival club's level and budget. No more European giants chasing your 4th-tier players, and no minnows offering fortunes.
• Match results are now driven by detailed player attributes across attack, midfield and defence.
• Player market values and wages now reflect their attributes.
• Action Points bank higher between quiet weeks (carryover ceiling raised to 15).

Fixed

• Off-window agreed transfers now read correctly in the newspaper — future tense and neutral wording.
• Players now address the club chairman correctly in conversations.
• Season-boundary intelligence cleanup, plus missing signings on crisis and star events.

Fixed

• Eliminated brief freezes after advancing to the next week, making a decision, and on the menu — turns feel smooth again.

Added

• Tapping a rating-reminder notification now opens the app-rating screen directly.

Added

• Dedicated post-event newspapers for your fan, chairman and media actions.

Changed & Improved

Added

• 17 new display languages (30 total) — the UI, events, gazette headlines and full newspaper articles are now translated across all of them.

Fixed

• iPad full-screen requirement for the landscape-only game.
• A "no such column" database error, and the new languages now appear in the in-app language picker.

Added

• Full asset-based visual overhaul across the entire app — office, squad, transfers, finance, season, media, power map, shop, settings, sign-in and dialogs.
• 58 playable countries with two-tier leagues, three-tier continental competitions (Champions / Europa / Conference) and midweek domestic cups.
• Multi-term transfer offers (clean / hidden / dirty) with a player-set fee slider, multi-round bargaining and exposed-deal investigation chains.
• Tick-based match engine with live text-match playback; your chairman's soft-power stats now influence results.
• 10-level club facilities gated by league & club size, a youth academy and player development.
• Tabbed office hub (dashboard / recommendations / inbox / intel) and an actionable intelligence system where not all info is trustworthy.
• Real, transfer-season-based Financial Fair Play sanctions.
• Injury & suspension system with a localized live match feed.
• Multiple save slots and cloud save (full-world sync & restore).
