The error is harmless, although no managers will be appointed by that club/nation. *Euro 2020: hosting is a bit messed up: whoever hosts Euro 2024 will be shown as hosting Euro 2020 when teams qualify for it in news items. Seeing as Euro 2020 doesn't really have a host IRL (I suppose Engand at a push) I'm not too bothered about it. *FIFA Club World Club: a very rare crash, issue unknown so no fix at the moment. *French Championnat National: still has 20 clubs - two just play no fixtures (La Châtaigneraie & Orvault SF). *French Coupe de la Ligue: two Ligue 1 sides don't enter in the first season. *Northern Ireland: Transfer window messages are shown twice, due to Denmark also using Northern Ireland's code. *Norway: Transfer window messages are shown twice, due to Sweden also using Norway's code. *Retirements: players set to retire in the player_setup.cfg file will retire immediately instead of on the date listed.
