#SaveProClubs
The initial tweet has been up for 23 hours, got over 1,000,000 impressions, and has been the subject of multiple news articles.
Ignore those who say it's not a big deal, not a big game mode, etc etc. We're getting global attention because it's a global game mode.

If EA can't sort Xbox X and PS5 cross-play.....
They would gain massive plaudits if they allowed Xbox One and Xbox X players to play with each other. Same with PS4 and PS5. They should consider looking into this especially for people who cannot afford a new console immediately.
@DannyAaronsFUT
EA put an overhaul into Pro Clubs, promote it with consistent and effective marketing, it will take over as the main mode of the game.
Football should be about 11 people playing against 11 other people.
@EASPORTSFIFA
As players, as a community, push, and do not stop pushing. I KNOW for a fact they saw, paid attention to, and sped up the process of fixing friendlies when

The Twitter will remain dark and not RT or post anything else for the remainder of today. We have found out this evening that a friend and ex-admin

I personally am absolutely devastated.

Tragic news today that an ex-admin and member Sami (Ivalkryiei) was stabbed and killed yesterday night. Guy was a first year student at University, had been a VFL admin for as long as I can remember, and was way too young. Hit the admin team hard today.

@EAFIFADirect
I totally respect the response, but the clarity is again lacking. It's vague words and phrases.
"Technical Intricacies"
"Complexities"
All the community wants, is detail. If you provide that, nobody is going to have a problem.
#SaveProClubs
I thought long and hard about it. It is needed sure, but it's deserved. Hatton is a big player in our scene. His team all play VFL.
The site in question should be embarrassed of itself.
We back our own.
#OneCommunity
Said it before, say it again. 5s is not the future of Pro Clubs. All these events for exposure & charity, great, but please, give shine to the actual purpose of the mode, no matter how "unrealistic" or "not logistically possible" it is.
11v11 is football. 11v11 is Clubs.
#Clubs
I completely can get on board with it being complex for an 11v11 mode yes... but again, "complexities", this is incredibly vague. What are they? "We'll not be including it at launch", does this mean its coming mid-way like pens and ET did?
Clarity. All we want.
#SaveProClubs
"Thereโs added complexity in developing modes with multiple players playing on the same team... we continue to explore the best technical implementation."
Here are some more details from
#TopBinsLive
about cross-play and Pro Clubs.
If you're in low spirits for today, let me cheer you up anyway.
As you know, it's International season... with that, there's nothing like a "Fake Proof" story to get you chuckling on this sunny afternoon.
Enjoy ๐

Extremely embarrassing look for FGL. I urge them to correct it, and remember that the BIGGEST and MOST IMPORTANT resource of a Pro Clubs league, are the Pro Clubs players.
I cringed reading the entitlement in these screenshots.
Awful news regarding a long-time playing PS4 user deadmanjack666. Signed up in 2016 and played up until the middle of 2018.
We'll be renaming this weekend's PS4 Pre-Season tournament with a trophy reward to the Merrett Pre-Season Cup.

Ask yourself if they would really ever pre-warn us.
Beyond that, even if they did, what else can you do other than what I'm doing right now?
Please don't spin this as "Its partially your fault".
This is what everybody keeps speculating due to the wording of their statements. But of course we can't celebrate, or stop
#SaveProClubs
until it's 100% verified by EA that this is the case like ET + Pens a few years back.
We'll eventually get an answer.
#SaveProClubs
Best part about the ICC is learning what your team is good at, poor at, and who the bad eggs who can't handle Ls are in your team.
If you're sat there after bad results tonight, and you've bailed on your team, I hate to say this, but they've just gotten rid of a bad egg.

"We want to ensure our product innovation is delivered at quality, and because of the technical intricacies of implementing cross-play, modes that pair players together such as Pro Clubs will not feature cross-play at this time."
Following the cross-play test in FIFA 22 to Online Friendlies and Online Seasons, weโre expanding the availability of cross-play to more game modes in

Can confirm, this patch is the fix. They've had community help from the Americas for the last 2-3 weeks on finding a solution. I can't say any more than that. Update hits consoles in 1-2 weeks. Every league should be happy for the New Year. Better late than never.

Can one of the connected YouTubers / Twitch guys who have an open line with people at EA get them to release some sort of fix/info on the below.
People out there starting Pro Clubs with 0 skill points. Getting 0 skill points after games.
We need you guys now, not in August.
If you're complaining about 11s being harder to score in this year, and are salty about it, all it shows is that you relied on the nonesense high scoring mechanics of gameplay in FIFA 18 and 19. Welcome back to reality. Happy to have you here.

If today is "cross play announcement day" then we're set to have all the rumours squashed & be surprised in a positive way for once, or, see the biggest media storm in years.
Facts - People wont care about tattoos or skill games after Dec 1st. Cross Play creates a buzz.

Really big thank you to all the guys tweeting, DMing and PMing me on VFL to praise this idea.

One thing that makes me feel sorry for managers out there;
Kid comes onto VFL, "I've won trophies on _____ - TOP TEAMS ONLY", never won anything on VFL, yet an ego because you've won some league which is the same difficulty as the Bulgarian 5th division IRL.
Curb your ego.

A week ago, a player got banned for racism. I took it to his org, org promised action. They released the player via a tweet, deleted the tweet, blocked me, and let him back in. This tweet will be RT'd every day until

@BrandonBeavis
explains why they back racism.
Next tournament you run, please take my advice this time. Give the players everything. It will redeem you after tonight. The community will forgive a poor event if compensated correctly.

21 Pro Clubs Deep Dive Notes.
Underwhelming. Kinda cool if you small/low man it, but for 11s, none of what they have brought in matters. All we can hope for is clean gameplay, and maybe something special in the next-gen version of 21.
To confirm, as your managers may be telling you, we are in contact with them.
We'll be making a call on PP'ing games at 7:45pm for Xbox (due to it being EA and Microsoft), and 7:55pm for PS4 (due to it only being EA).

I've just seen this and wow... these guys are the most genuine people doing content in the Clubs / 11s space for YEARS...
To block them and bar them because they came and did commentary with me for a VFL Champions League is awful.
Not once did they nor I say anything about hisโฆ
One thing I can't get out of my mind is a guy who told me not too long ago that he only started playing Clubs on 16, and due to that, 18 was the best FIFA he's played for Pro Clubs. It makes me feel sad many are probably like him who never experienced the glory of FIFA 12.
#Clubs
Spare a thought for the one guy out there in the world who will play about 300-400 games of Clubs on this BETA in the next 2 weeks, and be monumentally annoyed when he logs onto Early Access and sees that the progress does not carry over. It happens every year.
