Netherlands (D7) by Xavier Lukhas [21.4]

Description
A database for the Netherlands down to the seventh tier (Tweede Klasse) including an expanded KNVB Beker, Districtsbekers, and Periodes. The Tweede Divisie/Eerste Divisie promotion and relegations have been modified to allow better fluidity between the leagues.

Relative to the 21.1 version, this version has a few additional COVID related changes for the first season. The KNVB Beker and top 4 divisions start at slightly a later date and the Johan Cruijff Schall is canceled for the 20/21 season. You may see when starting a save that your club may have played a few pre-season matches already, but it changes very little regarding your ability to start a save immediately.

You can find more info about this database, all the caveats and all you need to know in my thread on the SI forums linked below:

No, it's not possible to play with Jong clubs. Spanish and German youth clubs are integrated differently than most youth/reserves teams: they're their own separate club linked to the main club by an affiliation, which is why you can manage them. They can have their own budget, and they can even have their own board if you so desire (check the pre-game Editor). German and Spanish youth teams are more independent relative to their main team.

Also IMO and IME, managing Real's La Castilla is a pretty miserable experience in FM. The manager of the main squad just takes every good player and lets them rot on the bench of the main squad. Your hands are tied, you can only do tactics and matches, you don't get to decide on much else.

is it possible to play with teams like jong psv ? because you can for example play with jong barca and bayern so why not them

Hello, no there's no plan to go below what's available. The complexity of the promotion system already deterred me from adding the Derde Klasse, as explained in the thread above.

The second reason is that FM doesn't scale that well that low in the pyramid. Essentially it means that past a certain point, there's no difference between clubs that can be two or three divisions apart because FM doesn't have the resolution to scale that low. And with the Tweede Klasse, you're already near rock bottom of what FM can do and still be pleasant to play.

Is there a plan to add derde and vierde klasse?
