m1234566778 Posted March 20, 2010 Share Posted March 20, 2010 FC United of Manchester and AFC Wimbledon are both phoenix clubs. I want to create my own. So, Who do you think the next phoenix club will be for? And what type of finances and reputations do they need to be given? If anyone else fancies making a phoenix club following this thread then please do so and then this can be the home of phoenix clubs, likewise if you're already playing as a phoenix club then feel free to post.

MillwallLion08 Posted March 20, 2010 Share Posted March 20, 2010 Pompey? Chester City? WHS, two good shouts. I'm sure Liverpool have one aswell, but if not, maybe them. Also, unfortunatly, Stockport County may need one soon. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ty Posted March 20, 2010 Share Posted March 20, 2010 Considering the game can't even let you create your own teams, let alone phoenix teams... I think he means take a team from a lower division, and re-name them/edit them and such. To create a new 'pheonix' team. Cor, imagination people...

m1234566778 Posted March 20, 2010 Author Share Posted March 20, 2010 A club formed by the demise of a main football club or for other non-footballing reasons. We (FC united) were formed because of the Gl*zers. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

phnompenhandy Posted March 21, 2010 Share Posted March 21, 2010 It WILL be Chester - AFC or FC Chester. However, you could go for King's Lynn. SI removed them from the database in patch 10.3 'cos they've been liquidated, so you could resurrect them from the flames. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
pommie Posted March 21, 2010 Share Posted March 21, 2010 Another phoenix club: Wellington Phoenix Formed from the ashes of New Zealand Knights. Sadly Cardiff could also be in the running for a phoenix club before too long as well. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

SmithRDFC Posted March 21, 2010 Share Posted March 21, 2010 Farsley Celtic, Weymouth, Forest Green, Salisbury, Lewes, Luton(Maybe wishful thinking) and Kettering are all non league sides who may need a pheonix club soon. Why not do a Pheonix of Gretna but in the English leagues, geographically they are almost in England and it'd be a little bit different. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why not do a Pheonix of Gretna but in the English leagues, geographically they are almost in England and it'd be a little bit different. Of those, only Farsley, together with Chester and Kings Lynn are actually 'dead'. Gretna would be a good call except that they already have a phoenix, Gretna2008 which is in the database. But yeh, you could move them to England - replace Farsley in the BSN. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

SmithRDFC Posted March 21, 2010 Share Posted March 21, 2010 Just inspired myself, got three Portsmouth pheonix's in the Blue Square South. one tycoon based, Portsmouth Red Bulls. One run by Linvoy Primus, the most popular, AFC Portsmouth Pheonix. One run by Peter Storrie (not very popular) Portsmouth Marine. Also placed Gretna 2008 in BSN with TNS Chester and AFC Farsley and Leeds. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

jld123 Posted March 21, 2010 Share Posted March 21, 2010 I think Farsley's plan was to become FC Leeds (Farsley Celtic Leeds) to appeal to more people, the idea being more people had heard of Leeds than Farsley, or something along those lines anyway.

SmithRDFC Posted March 21, 2010 Share Posted March 21, 2010 Jld, I remembered that as i was doing it so that was why i did it. Not got a clue how to upload i'm afraid if someone could give me some guidance i would be happy to. Holidaying through a couple of seasons at the moment to see what occurs. Red Bulls just bought Caleb Folan for £2M, i may change their sugar daddy to backgound. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
JazzX Posted March 21, 2010 Share Posted March 21, 2010 Tempted to do Gretna and put them in the Northern leagues. Northern Leagues. Pah! I got to see them hammer Queen of the South 4 - 0 away. That was the year they lost on penalties to Rangers in the cup final. They were a great team - but rumour has it that their goalkeeper was having an affair with the manager's wife (hence the manager did a disappearing act). They then limped into the Premier League and got trounced week after week. It was too much too soon - they even had to share a ground with Motherwell 80 miles away. Such a shame.

Nobby_McDonald Posted March 22, 2010 Share Posted March 22, 2010 FC United and AFC Liverpool can go and rot in hell. Why fans should up sticks and form a new club simply because they don't like an owner is unbelieveable. A fan is supposed to support the club, not abandon it at will. I'm all for teams like AFC Telford and Scarborough Athletic who form after previous incarnations folded through no fault of the fans. I'm also for AFC Wimbledon, as they are a special case of a club formed after their own team were taken from their fans and moved 70 miles North of their base.
