We'll start the thread with a save reveal by @FMEadster
I highly enjoyed reading this! Eadster does his homework and teaches us some history, explains why Antwerp and what his plans are for the save:
"an EU wide second chance academy if you will" https://fmeadster.wordpress.com/2020/12/02/save-reveal-fm21-royal-antwerp-the-great-old/

@Oaky_FM is flying through the seasons and writes quality blog posts!
Well written, easy to digest and a fun savegame to follow! Also, there might be a new stadium built... https://oakyfm.wordpress.com/2020/12/03/allez-les-thoniers-first-season-in-ligue-2/

Staying in France, where @DGear86 is managing AS Saint-Etienne. The first season is done and the results are quite good! Also, some youth promoted to the first team, which is always a bonus to me.

@KibworthBull wrote an excellent introduction to his youth academy challenge save. I like these type of challenges, so will be following with interest! https://thelutterworthfox.wordpress.com/2020/11/30/the-flower-of-scotland-1-incremental-gains/
@MikeBTS_ is managing Lokomotiv Sofia and writes some fine and semi-short posts! The story is already 8 posts deep, so maybe you'll have some catching up to do, but trust me; it's worth it!
Here's his latest: https://mikebetweenthesticks.co.uk/2020/12/stepping-up/

I love how many people are focussing their savegame on youth development this year!
@FM_Samo has done a great job in his first season, and I'm eager to read more from him. I don't care he already won the league, it's all about that player's progress! https://fmsamo.com/the-golden-generation-accidental-title-win/
