Well done: a very respectable 2nd place for a small team like Viborg. It was a demonstration of how far one can get by just keeping it tight at the back for most of the time. You'll always have a shot or two at goal each game, so then it's just a matter of efficiency. Into the Champions League then!

Yes! Unfortunately the game still provides crazy over the top expectations. My board now expects me to reach the Champions League Quarter Final. An accomplishment which a Danish club has never been able to do, and it is now expected from Viborg in the club's first ever entry to the qualifiers? That's awful. I hope I set the settings right, when I started this, so I won't get fired, if I miss the qualifier and end up in the Europa League in stead.

No, you won't be sacked. Instead, if you drop back into a different tournament they adjust expectations. However, they are usually more challenging than the previous ones. Should you end up in Europea League, they'll be expecting semi finals I guess. If you can compensate with good domestic and financial results, I think you'll be safe anyway.

Sounds good. I was also just referring to all the settings you adjust before starting. Which are difficult to remember and understand the consequences of. I really don't recall hos "lenient" I set it too, but I'm pretty sure I set it up so I shouldn't be fired too easily. I suppose I'm just not that comfortable with ignoring the critical board objectives yet.
