  • Youth Cup and Shield Finals

    Leicester City beat reigning champions Levante 7-4 over two legs to win the club’s first ever Youth Cup. Mathys Tel scored four goals including a hattrick in the second leg, while Jamal Musiala provided a hattrick of assists in each game. Florian Wirtz gave the best individual performance with a perfect 10 rating in the…

  • S23 Sackings and Reappointments?

    Here’s the follow-up to this morning’s episode on some possible end of season managerial moves according to gossip rags and the Top 100 WhatsApp group. A closer look at the clubs heading for the sack and who will or won’t be reappointed. Remember, what’s in this podcast is not the final decision of the Admin…

  • Top 100 Talk S23 End of Season

    Rumours, rumours and outright tabloid nonsense from across the pond. Just a bit of fun. Don’t take it too seriously, or personally.

  • Selection Criteria for Jobs

    Following on from yesterday’s post about the turnover in managers in Top 100 since the SM Worlds 2.0 update, I want to address the criteria we use to select managers to replace those that leave their clubs. Firstly, unmanaged are offered out to any interested managers already in Top 100 primarily via the newsfeed. If…

  • How Top 100 Survived a Mass Extinction Event

    We knew the SM Worlds asteroidupdate was coming since June and we were expecting it to hit Top 100 in September. We’d prepared the ground in Top 100, as much as possible. We had 48 Gold managers, and after messaging all non-Gold managers we knew that we would lose five and probably a few more…

  • IMPORTANT: Change to Transfer Limits in Top 100

    SM Worlds 2.0 SM introduced – and almost immediately rolled back due to so many bugs – their much vaunted SM Worlds 2.0 yesterday evening. I guess we can expect to see it again maybe late next week, unless the Gores like paying overtime to their developers to work on the Bank Holiday Weekend. Implications…

    The final group games were played on Saturday, and all the results and final tables are on the Challonge tournament website.

  • S23 Youth Cup Groups

    Please check out the Top 100 Challonge tournament website to see the full list of groups and fixtures for this season’s group stage. There are ten groups of six teams all seeded according to their relative strengths at the start of the season. Teams play each other once, so there are five games for each…

  • 60 Teams Registered for Youth Cup

    Please check to make sure your team is registered if you want to enter, and that your team’s average rating is correct (average rating of your best available youth team). I guessed Hellas, Internacional and Basel ratings as they didn’t submit them, and also Everton, who submitted an obviously incorrect average rating of 70. Team…
