This is a really fun twist on the manager sim, & a nice sister app to The Program.Some bugs & issues that I’ve noticed:-The badge designer is badly broken and only currently works if you edit one setting at a time, save, then re-open & continue. SUPER annoying bug that ruins setting up a team in the beginning.-Yellow Cards don’t actually seem to have any function right now, and 2 won’t cause a red card & send a player off, nor do they seem to accumulate for red cards over time.-Tactic changes/substitutions in-game & at halftime aren’t here yet, and would be a huge addition. Subs could work with a 3 or 5 sub limit per match, & could give partial XP, while halftime could work similarly to The Program.-Some pub goals are nearly impossible. They should be balanced a bit better, & last season’s results should have some bearing on where you start & squad expectations. A squad fighting relegation will be happy to finish 10th; a championship contender, not so much.-An assistant coach system that leveled up over seasons akin to The Program would be nice too.

Loved the developer’s previous release, The Program, and love the potential of this next project. After sinking hours into The Program, I have found The Gaffer difficult when it comes to the transfer window or find young talent. (i.e. Limited upside on potential vs. overall value, resource allocation, etc.). Surely there can be other ways to bring in cash other than selling existing players for pennies. Not to mention, not having much say in who (or what specific position) you can pursue and/or sell. Another improvement I’d love to see is the player’s peak potential system. Most players I am able to find or land reach their peak in their early 20s, followed by sharp declines in their overall rating YoY. Maybe I am missing something, or this area improves further down the road, but the foundation is there for another great game! Excited to see the final product!

Love the game, and I also have played the football version for the developer. I love the game so far minimal glitches and it has been hard and entertaining. Just promoted out of the first league and the way the transfer and youth academy is set up is great, but when I was picked the guy who said goalkeepers he never gave a goalkeeper. Speaking of goalkeepers the stats names for them probably should be adjusted to fit them more accordingly I don’t know if it would really matter. The glitches have been minimal but the game somehow glitched my audio out and it didn’t stop playing music from the app the first time I played but only then, and the only other glitches I have had are some random app crashes but that’s it. Enjoyable game however looking forward to further updates

I played the program game and I loved it and this one is just as good! Currently on season 2 after a rough first season but now I’m first in week nine looking to move on and it’s fun to just watch the games play out and feel the tension build hoping your team comes through. I will say sometimes I lose games I shouldn’t have lost but hey it happens. I would like to see maybe an update to watching your game maybe a bit more like the college one where you can see the field and see what’s going on every minute also the logo editing is a little glitchy and freezes sometimes. Overall though this game is fun and a great time killer.
