We've reached the mid-way point in the Football Manager 2021 cycle, which means there's probably plenty of people keen for a new challenge and looking for a new save to take on for the next six months.
Bolton Wanderers were challenging at the top of the Premier League after a great start to the 2035/36 campaign.
