I loved the Irchester save I did last year that was very similar to this, (but can't remember what level I started at). Hopefully you will enjoy this too. The no scouting really moves the game along and it was interesting the decent 2nd Nationality foreigners that I got through while still in non-League. Are you going to allow yourself to re-sign players who have come through your Academy and left, or is it no signing anyone ever?

Irchester are currently in the 10th tier so I'd probably say they're in the same league last year. It'll be interesting to see and I'm going to try make a map on where the youth players are coming from. I've not thought about it just yet but it's probably going to be no signing anyone ever.

Unfortunately we're losing a couple more players and it's beginning to show. The joys of a youth challenge in an amateur league.

Adam was a starting MC who's joined a club that I think is two division above us and Rolf was a starting centreback and vice captain who's joined another tier 14 side which specialises in English/Portuguese dual nationals.

Scoring a second goal in that final game of the season would have seen us promoted, unfortunately though Viney St. Swithin's manage to hold on, I can't say they didn't deserve it either, top scorer in the league and they spent the longest time in 1st anyway. Maybe next season.

A very long pre-season but also some great results, we managed a draw against Telford United!!

Expectations have been lowered which is nice, league favourites Coleford Athletic moved across into our league.

Just the one game in January due to a waterlogged pitch but it gave us another much needed win and now we have a game in gand on everyone else (Other than Whitecroft Reserves, of course.)

Gareth Sterling isn't a big miss but Patrick Gibson scored 6 goals in 11 substitute appearances.

What an exciting end to the season! in the last five games we'd scored 1 goal and conceded 0! But we have managed to win promotion to the 13th tier!!

2022/23 Pre-Season

b02080b565c55246f352c7b8f1ee1fb9.png

A surprisingly great pre-season! We oly lost to both Hereford and Halifax by one goal!

If we're predicted dead last then I'm glad I didn't remove the 14th tier, especially with four relegation spots.

Unfortunately though we are now without two of our best players.

Definitely not an exciting  month but we're grinding out results and how have a four point lead and the best goal difference in the league, I'm really liking how solid we've been, even in these very low leagues!

We lose our backup goal keeper as he goes back home to Northern Ireland signing for amateur side Nortel.

Unfortunately the database is just too big for me to carry this on, three seasons in and we're at 219,000 players and a 400mb save file and it's taken me two hours to process three weeks. I apologise to those that are following this. The one positive is that I've finally made my own tactic that appears to work!

Ah noooo. Gutted. 

Worth doing with a smaller database?

Were you just loading the English leagues or did you have extra nations added?
