NCFC Gee Posted August 31, 2018 Share Posted August 31, 2018 I’m looking to start a new save in fm18 and would like to join a real life club that has literally won nothing, not even the smallest competition, does anyone know of any such teams?

rodesire Posted August 31, 2018 Share Posted August 31, 2018 There are no such teams in english professional football leagues. However, if you ignore the reserve competitions, here are a few clubs that could be of interest: Rochdale AFC - League One, last won a trophy in 1912 (2 total) USD Novese - Serie D/A, won only trophy in 1922 Cabinteely FC - Irish First Division, won only trophy in 1939 Þór Akureyri, Magni Grenivík - Icelandic second division, neither has any trophies on their website 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

phnompenhandy Posted September 1, 2018 Share Posted September 1, 2018 Gainsborough Trinity would have been ideal. In their entire history they had never been promoted or relegated - until this year that is, when they dropped out of the National League North, the lowest level OOTB in FM Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
phnompenhandy Posted September 1, 2018 Share Posted September 1, 2018 My favourite is also one level below FM18 OOTB, Fort William in the Scottish Highland League. Not only do they come rock-bottom EVERY season, but their goal differences are spectacular. This season so far they're running at an average of conceding 11 goals per match. There's no relegation from the league; I don't know how they're allowed to continue. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm using the 22-level English one (see the Editors' Hideaway forum). Thousands of clubs all the way down to lowest amateur levels that have empty trophy cabinets.

llDracoll Posted September 1, 2018 Share Posted September 1, 2018 You'd need a custom league for that, but Atlas, which plays in the Primera D (fifth tier) in Argentina, has never won any official silverware. It has never been promoted either. There's also Gimnasia y Esgrima La Plata, whose only trophies in the last 60 years have been one-time cups, which for one of the teams with the most seasons in top-flight is strange.

Just blown for full-time, yet another 0-11 drubbing. Remarkably, they managed to field an ineligible player for three thrashings this season and have had 9 points deducted. They will almost certainly finish the season on minus points!!! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any help would be appreciated! It's highly unlikely that any team would meet your requirements. The limitation of any trophy is too stringent There are plenty of teams that have only ever won minor awards however. The English Football league was formed around 1860, roughly 150 years ago. The clubs that formed that first league ... were already playing games for several years before going "official" Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The FA was formed in 1863 (some clubs, including Sheffield FC and Notts County, were formed before then), and the Football League started in 1888.

RBKalle Posted September 2, 2018 Share Posted September 2, 2018 Frosinone have never won a competition at a national level. They won their Serie C2 (tier 4) group twice, and two youth competitions a few years back. Then it depends on how what you consider "winning a trophy". If winning a lower division title counts as one, many clubs are out. Still, in Italian Serie B like half of the clubs have never won that either and can only claim victory in semi-pro competitions or in regional leagues. Same goes for Norway, where most yo-yo (or recently created) clubs have only "won" the second tier on their way back to the top (Sandefjord, Haugesund, Sarpsborg). Then if you drop down one tier, most clubs have an empty trophy cabinet. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe I should have been a clearer on my main point. There are a LOT of clubs that have up to 150 years of footballing history during which time they will have collected some silverware. During those 150 years there have been many national and international competitions that are now defunct (Anglo-Scottish Cup, Anglo-Italian Cup etc etc) most of have which have many different annual winners. A team that has won no MAJOR awards will leave you with a much larger pool of teams than 0 To be represented in the FM database entering in the English tier 6 (Conference N/S) 2 of the newly promoted teams would have needed to win the tier 7 title Under your criteria of ANY award .. they are unplayable, when to be honest who cares about lower league titles when you have the Premier League to aim for If you limit it to major awards you're ruling out teams that have won A national trophy, a national tier 1 title, an international trophy You'd be surprised at just how many teams will unqualify themselves for consideration with those more generous selection criteria Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
phd_angel Posted September 3, 2018 Share Posted September 3, 2018 Try Urbs Reggina 1914 (Italy 3rd Division - C). Also, try any Brazilian third-division clubs. Any of these have won nothing at all, but are lots of fun to play! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crispypaul Posted September 18, 2018 Share Posted September 18, 2018 Oxford City FC in the National League South on FM18 have only won the Oxfordshire Senior Cup which I don't believe is represented in game, so will have a clean honours list.
