chestermike Posted February 19, 2017 Share Posted February 19, 2017 Hi all,inspired by a fb poll,who on here has done a Lincoln and taken a non league side to the fa cup quarter final? If you haven't,how far have you gone? personally, on my network game with my mate I got Chester to the 4th round, beating league teams in round 1 and 2 and championship qpr in round 3. on fm11/12 I got Chester to the quarter finals when still lower league, think I might have been league 2 at the time though, can't remember exactly. I did beat 3 premiership teams along the way, including reigning champions southampton 3-1 away in round 4. Always remember that cos for some reason the AI made 3 first half subs, then got 2 injured and had to play with 9 men. so, what's your best with a non league club?

Hairycull Posted February 19, 2017 Share Posted February 19, 2017 Not in the FA cup but in my current save I have gotten Oxford City up to league 1 and im going to be playing Man City in the quarter finals in the EFL. Beat Fulham (Championship) Middlesbrough (Premier) Man Utd (Premier) Liverpool (Premier) Ai is dumb as hell, I keep beating Premier League teams and they still field their reserves against me.

TheRealTactician Posted February 20, 2017 Share Posted February 20, 2017 I took Tranmere to the 4th round beating Milwall as the best opposition in the 3rd round to ironically play a massive match against Liverpool in the 4th round. We got hammered but nice pay day. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
barsiem Posted February 20, 2017 Share Posted February 20, 2017 One game I was playing a few years ago had Exeter, who were in the non-league, actually winning the Fa Cup! They beat Man Utd in the final. ''Twas a bit mental... I wasn't managing them either Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Black and Yellow Posted February 20, 2017 Share Posted February 20, 2017 I once took Solihull of the Conference North to the 5th Round, before bowing out to Premiership side Wigan. Unfortunately wasn't around long enough to see that money used! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnhughthom Posted February 20, 2017 Share Posted February 20, 2017 Quite a few years ago I took Leigh RMI to the FA Cup Final from the conference. Played Liverpool in the final. They played a reserve team and won 1-0 through an Emile Heskey goal in front of 20 odd thousand fans. I don't think the game was quite programmed for that scenario.

Guest Posted February 20, 2017 Share Posted February 20, 2017 I took Elgin to the Scottish League cup final beating Rangers in the SF during an FM12 LLM clan game, iirc we were SD3 at the time but annoyingly we made very little money from the final due to the Hampden Park bug. I've had a few FA Cup 4th round appearances while managing Conference National sides but never got beyond that stage & to my best recollection I've never beaten a Premier League side while managing a non-league side.
