Football Manager 27: Fixtures Are Broken on Starting First Game (Workarounds)
Short answer
No confirmed fix yet. Players suggest: Make sure you change it before creating the gameworld.
The problem
When I start a game, the date is December 2026 but there are no fixures until September 2027... any ideas on how to fix it?
What players suggest
You chose a bad start date for the league you are playing. When chosing leagues you pick the game start date in the top left. Make sure it matches what league you will start in. Not all leagues run August to may. Some start in spring. The game auto pick start date for the first league added. Make sure you change it before creating the gameworld.
the game is set to start for american league fixture dates, change it to english
