These were exciting times at Forest as the board's long-planned vision of a new stadium came to reality. The 61,155-capacity Brian Clough Arena, which has an expansion capacity of 73,703, was officially completed on 26 June 2033 and puts us in a really strong position alongside perfect facilities and a bank balance over £500m for the first time.
Union Berlin enjoyed a strong start to manager Ruprecht Prusseit's first-ever season in top-flight football. They'd been as high as fifth in the early stages of Bundesliga and went into the winter break just a few points behind the European places.
Football at Celtic Park has always been more than simply winning. The fans want to be entertained. When the Lisbon Lions won the European Cup, the tactical style was the complete opposite to Helenio Herrera’s great catenaccio side with Inter Milan and vibrant attractive football has been labelled ‘The Celtic Way’.
After 10 years of life as a proper Football Manager, Ruprecht Prusseit had gone from virtual obscurity to joining Germany's elite in Bundesliga. He led Union Berlin back to Bundesliga in 2031/32, lifting only the club's second professional trophy as 2. Bundesliga Champions.
The Nottingham Forest takeover of English football had seen our exciting young team rack up four consecutive Premier League titles - a feat the great man Sir Alex Ferguson never achieved at Man UFC - and reach a maiden Champions League Final in 2031.
Hertha Berlin were on track to secure an immediate return to Bundesliga after manager Ruprecht Prusseit made a solid start to his biggest job so far on his OstDeutscher Sieg journey. But there was plenty of pressure on the Dresden-born boss to make that promotion happen.
Welcome to our new FM23 series ‘Legacy of the Hoops’ from our new site contributor FM Henke! In this game, I will be playing as the decision maker behind the scenes almost like a Director of Football style challenge.
The summer of 2031 saw a massive opportunity come Ruprecht Prusseit's away as, fresh from Bundesliga relegation, Union Berlin sacked Dan Putrescu and soon approached him for an interview.
Nottingham Forest bagged back-to-back Premier League titles as they lifted what was probably one of the worst seasons in terms of quality but certainly delivered final-day excitement. That said, I was worried about a lack of attacking threat, which I prioritised addressing in the summer of 2029.
Ruprecht Prusseit had cobbled together a squad of freebies and loanees in the summer of 2030 but somehow put together a team potentially capable of mounting a 3. Liga title challenge. Indeed, his Energie Cottbus sat top of 3. Liga heading into 2031.
