I only had to get a Level 4 Youth Level and got an U18 team in my Worthing save, this was in League 2 I think (maybe the National League, can't remember). Level 3 I also got a Central League U23 team.

Crispypaul Worthing Premier League 2028/29 League - Fixtures 1 | Fixtures 2 | Table - after last season's strong finish I had high hopes for this season. We didn't have a great start though losing successive away games, however as the season went on we clicked and eventually finished as champions. FA Cup - Fixtures - Got to the semis fairly comfortably but then taken apart by eventual winners Chelsea League Cup - Fixtures - a repeat of the previous season as we faced Man Utd in the final again but a 1-0 win in extra time meant we lifted the trophy. Champions League - Fixtures | Table - AC Milan, AZ and Krasnodar made up a pretty good group considering we were 4th seeds. A couple of away draws and a tonking of Krasnodar at home meant we had a good start until a poor defeat at home to AZ in match 4. A good win against AC Milan and away to Krasnodar though meant we topped the group. Up next German side Borussia Monchengladbach who we beat comfortably 6-1 on aggregate. Then fellow German side Bayern Munich who were too good for us in the end. I didn't take a screenshot but our U-23 side also won the EFL Trophy.... Finances - rich rich rich. Our board are expanding the stadium so we're off to Brighton again for the season. Transfers - I am properly splashing the cash now. Squad Key players Niklas Sule - signed the experienced centre half on a free after leaving Bayern and he was solid Maxence Laurent - great again after his permanent move, but still not capped by Belgium for some reason. Wilfried Thomas - a £30m purchase from Sheffield United ended up as our top scorer Leandro - superb down the left again. Real Madrid are sniffing around though. Luis Claudio - £26m release clause bought this outstanding Brazilian central midfielder from Flamengo. A bargain. Dusan Kotora - has been with a few seasons now, the Slovakian centre half bought for £1m now a very strong defender. Ramiro Barreto - the Argentine/Spanish right back is another whom is at home in this team Season Division Position FA Cup League Cup Europe Notes 2020/21 VNS 1st 3rd round - - League winners, promoted, FAT semis 2021/22 VNL 1st 3rd round - - League winners, promoted, FAT winners 2022/23 L2 2nd 4th Round 2nd Round - Promoted 2023/24 L1 5th QF 3rd Round - Promoted 2024/25 Ch 7th 5th 4th - 2025/26 Ch 2nd QF QF - Promoted 2026/27 PL 6th SF QF - Qualified for ECL 2027/28 PL 2nd 5th Runners-up ECL Winners Qualified for CL 2028/29 PL 1st SF Winners QF Champions!

Crispypaul Worthing Premier League 2027/28 League - Fixtures 1 | Fixtures 2 | Table - a really good season - in fact it looks like we might have had a surprise title win but played very poorly in the last 3 games to slip to 2nd. A great season though. FA Cup - Fixtures - Man Utd ended our run in the 5th round League Cup - Fixtures - booked a trip to Wembley but were narrowly defeated by Man Utd Europa Conference League - Fixtures | Table - snuck past Braga in the play off to get a group of Qarabag, Hamilton Academical and Akhmat. A very comfortable group which we topped easily. Next we faced Hamilton again in the 2nd knockout round (we had a bye from winning the group. This competition is odd) whom we got past easily. KRC Genk of Belgium in the quarters were dispensed of easily. Fiorentina next in the semis where despite defeat in the away leg we still won the tie 6-4. In the final we faced Spanish side Real Sociedad and a very straightforward 4-1 win gave us the trophy. Finances - holy **** Transfers - a little strengthening again and selling some less important players Squad Key players Senedin Danilovic - the Bosnian striker was a bargain £5.5m Maxence Laurent - another good season for the loanee from Ajax, and I agreed a permanent deal for £30m at season end. Ilir Lluca - another good season, and extended his loan once more. Emre Can - superstar midfielder signed for the season and was a quality experienced player in a young team Leandro - excellent Brazilian winger Luis Henrique - loaned the Brazilian centre half from Tottenham and was a great defender Future - I'm going to splash the cash a bit as I reckon we've got a great chance at the title Season Division Position FA Cup League Cup Europe Notes 2020/21 VNS 1st 3rd round - - League winners, promoted, FAT semis 2021/22 VNL 1st 3rd round - - League winners, promoted, FAT winners 2022/23 L2 2nd 4th Round 2nd Round - Promoted 2023/24 L1 5th QF 3rd Round - Promoted 2024/25 Ch 7th 5th 4th - 2025/26 Ch 2nd QF QF - Promoted 2026/27 PL 6th SF QF - Qualified for ECL 2027/28 PL 2nd 5th Runners-up ECL Winners Qualified for CL

Well this is interesting...

Well this is interesting....

Slightly OT but Whitchurch is the only non-league ground i've been to where they give you your tea in a mug

I'm in the 2027/28 season in the Premier League as Worthing (starting out unplayable) and am not having a problem with this. I've sold players for reasonable (sometimes too high IMO) amounts to the AI and managed to sign good quality players for reasonable fees. The AI has gone mental though. Man City bought a player for £226m from Spurs in my save. He isn't that good either.

Crispypaul Worthing Premier League 2026/27 League - Fixtures 1 | Fixtures 2 | Table - a surprisingly comfortable start carried on and despite a December where we conceded 14 goals in 3 games we eventually finished in 7th place to qualify for the Europa Conference League. FA Cup - Fixtures - a very good run to the semi finals where we had our hearts broken in injury and then added time by Chelsea. League Cup - Fixtures - a good run to the quarter finals until Man City smashed us. Finances - good lord.....I'm pumping through facilities upgrades as quickly as possible here. Transfers - relatively low net spend but enough to strengthen the squad Squad Key players Marcus Dewhurst - the keeper was a £5.75m signing from relegated Sunderland and a considerable upgrade on our previous one Alfie Mawson - signed the experienced centre half from Reading and he proved he was still capable at this level Ramiro Barreto - young Argentine right back signed from Boca is going to be a real star Maxence Laurent - a loan signing from Ajax was also prolific up front Dusan Kotora - a bargain at £1m was this Slovakian centre half Ilir Lluca - had extended his loan and he definitely made the step up to the Premier League Harvey O'Connor - made his loan from Arsenal last season permanent for £2m and he continued his good form in midfield Sergio Arribas - former Real Madrid youngster arrived on a free and did very well Future - we're going on a European tour!

Love a good Nordic career. Great start!

Good start My local side play in level 10 so understand the skills (or not) involved!

Crispypaul Worthing Championship 2025/26 League - Fixtures 1 | Fixtures 2 | Table - started strongly in the season and that continued. We nearly overhauled recently relegated Everton (formerly our parent club) but didn't quite win the league, but promotion to the Premier League is comfort enough. FA Cup - Fixtures -, two narrow 1-0 wins over Premier League sides, then a very good win away at league leaders Everton. It was a different story on our return to Merseyside as Liverpool smashed us 4-1. League Cup - Fixtures - up to the quarter finals where Man Utd were too strong Finances - decent cup runs plus another couple of young players sold for good money. Transfers Squad Key players Nathan Phillips - solid at the back again Julius Thomas - another good season at left back Kaziah Sterling - another prolific season from the striker Noam Emeran - flying French right winger formerly of Man Utd Charles Bourgeois - the on loan Monaco defender was of a different class at the back Ilir Lluca - on loan Arsenal striker was incredibly prolific, and agreed to stay for another season Umberto Salcedo - a £125k signing from Bologna proved to be a great buy at left wing Future - well we're into the promised land.

Crispypaul Worthing Championship 2024/25 League - Fixtures 1 | Fixtures 2 | Table - flirted with relegation at first before meandering around mid table for a while. Then had a last minute push for the plays off but just missed out. A solid 7th place finish. FA Cup - Fixtures - only played Premier League sides away, however we beat both Wolves and Norwich before Arsenal were too strong for us. League Cup - Fixtures - a decent run to the 4th round where Man City knocked us out. Finances - both cup runs helped immensely plus I sold a youth player to Derby for £6m albeit partly in instalments. Transfers Squad Key players Kieren Holdsworth - another good season from the young striker Nathan Phillips - solid centre half Ben McNamee - on loan winger from Everton Jenno Campagne - ex Ajax central midfielder Julius Thomas - another loanee from parent club Everton, at left back Gordon Park - winger on loan from Burnley Kyron Gordon - strong ex Sheffield Utd centre half Kaziah Sterling - great season from the Jamiacan international striker Future - another tough season coming up...hopefully we'll make it Season Division Position FA Cup League Cup Europe Notes 2020/21 VNS 1st 3rd round - - League winners, promoted, FAT semis 2021/22 VNL 1st 3rd round - - League winners, promoted, FAT winners 2022/23 L2 2nd 4th Round 2nd Round - Promoted 2023/24 L1 5th QF 3rd Round - Promoted 2024/25 Ch 7th 5th 4th -

Crispypaul Worthing League One 2023/24 League - Fixtures 1 | Fixtures 2 | Table - started off a bit poorly so I expected a bottom half of the table season. However we gradually improved results and ended up in the play off places. A great two-legged defeat of Wigan led to a clash of giants in the play off final - Shrewsbury v Worthing - and we comfortably won 3-0 for a 4th consecutive promotion. FA Cup - Fixtures - had some luck of the draws as we got lower league sides in the first couple of rounds. Championship Millwall were up in the 3rd round and we beat them at home. Just about beat Middlesborough in the 4th round, then luckily beat Preston away in extra time in the 5th Round. In the quarter finals were drawn away against giants and eventual winners Man City and managed to only lose 2-1. Great cup run that really sorted our finances. League Cup - Fixtures - knocked out narrowly by Salford in the 3rd Round. EFL Trophy - Fixtures - got out of the groups but had to play a youth side because of congestion whom promptly lost 7-1 and cost me £15,000 in penalties for an understrength team. Hate this competition and glad to see the back of it. Finances - much better due to the cup run, plus our youth setup is starting to pay dividends as I sold a player for £1.5m and 50% to West Brom. Transfers Squad Key players Danny Welbeck - only signed the veteran forward in January but his presence helped push to promotion Mark Brookes - ex Man City youngster was a revelation at right back Kieren Holdsworth - prolific striker formerly of Spurs Luke McCormick - decent central midfielder Harry Hagan - really solid centre half on loan from parent club Everton, although sadly didn't want a loan extension Neil Murphy - another good striker, also ex Man City Future - another tough season coming up...hopefully we'll make it Season Division Position FA Cup League Cup Europe Notes 2020/21 VNS 1st 3rd round - - League winners, promoted, FAT semis 2021/22 VNL 1st 3rd round - - League winners, promoted, FAT winners 2022/23 L2 2nd 4th Round 2nd Round - Promoted 2023/24 L1 5th QF 3rd Round - Promoted

Crispypaul Worthing League Two 2022/23 League - Fixtures 1 | Fixtures 2 | Fixtures 3 | Table - a little mixed at first but began to click and ultimately won a surprise promotion although just missed out on the league title. FA Cup - Fixtures - took extra time to beat two non league sides. Then beat Southend comfortably in the 3rd round, with Sheffield Utd narrowly defeating us in the 4th. League Cup - Fixtures - beat Wimbledon then defeated on penalties by Portsmouth in the following round EFL Trophy - Fixtures - who cares. We had 115 people turn up to one game Finances - mediocre, I've been bumping up the youth setup spending but our income hasn't been keeping pace unfortunately.... Squad Key players Ryan Longman - very prolific striker Ashton Hall - strong right back Thomas Hill - flying ex-Liverpool winger Bjorn Hardley - strong ex Man Utd centre back Tomeu Pons - talented Spanish forward originally from Arsenal Jacob Shepherd - another great winger, formerly of West Brom Future - extended my contract of course.
