Gauntlet Thrown Down

Season 5 of the FM Streamer Showdown maybe now be in our rear-view mirror but this week we speak to 'League Champion' Viking Dan, who went unbeaten in the league stage only to get knocked out in the quarter finals by Elimination Playoff survivor, Dave Azzopardi. We also go over Dan's obsession with converting EVERYONE to a regista amongst other things. There's also a quiz from doop that involves little-known facts about each of us and non pen to keep score. As you can imagine, it's completely fine... 5 Star Potential is a Football Manager podcast brought to you by #WeStreamFM! If you've enjoyed the podcast, please leave a 5 star review on iTunes.

This week we caught up with the usually humble TomFM to talk about his YouTube and Twitch exploits, but then he completely derailed everything by doing something daft like claiming he was going to/already was the FM Streamer Showdown Season 5 winner before the draft had even happened. Madness. Proudie joins in the pod this too and there's also controversy in the quiz, to coin an often requented phrase, you love to see it. 5 Star Potential is a Football Manager podcast brought to you by #WeStreamFM!
