TacticalGenius Posted October 24, 2016 Share Posted October 24, 2016 I was considering creating Hackney Wick FC (new club started this season, near my birthplace) to FM and adding them to level 8, the lowest I feel comfortable with creating myself using the editor.

clarkehwbu Posted October 26, 2016 Share Posted October 26, 2016 I'm guessing just like the Sussex division you are expanding outside of the National League System (Below step 7)? If so, Leicestershire have two more league's that filter into the Leicestershire Senior League Championship (Also below Step 7) and then into the Premier. They are North Leicestershire League (4 divisions I believe) and Leicester & District Football League (Also 4 divisions). Would you look into including these too or not?

Yeah it's kind of confusing, but the majority would go into East Midlands Counties, so I would suggest in FM, fixing to that league. normally then from winning EMCL it's a sideways step to either MFL or UCL. For example Melton Town got promotion from Leicestershire Senior League Prem, and have gone into the UCL Div 1, which is Step 6 (same as EMCL) where as Birstall United Social, won promotion from Leicestershire Senior League Prem and have gone into the EMCL at Step 6. St Andrews also got promotion from the EMCL, and then took a step into the MFL Prem (Step 5) so this was a step up instead of a sideways step but i think it depends on the team and facilities etc Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ism-scfc Posted October 27, 2016 Share Posted October 27, 2016 West Lancs and Cheshire League will both promote to North West Counties. As will the Manchester League, West Cheshire league and Liverpool County Prem which you already have so you currently have 5 NWCFL feeders. Would you do 5 up 5 down or some sort of playoff?

Ryanfordummies Posted October 27, 2016 Share Posted October 27, 2016 I was hoping to take one of these really low teams all the way up to the champions leauge level and try and build it into a footballing powerhouse as a club. Does anyone know if that is possible - ive heard stories that there is some sort of hard cap you get on building out the club in terms of finances due to the clubs reputation, or does the reputation grow naturally as well? thanks for any advice Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jwchriste Posted October 27, 2016 Share Posted October 27, 2016 Reputation grows but at these very low levels it grows very slowly. I've found that when starting at the bottom, by the time I've been promoted to L11 my reputation is much lower than those I'm competing with. I tend to get promoted fast though. I imagine you'll start catching up in reputation once you make it to the default leagues that come with the game. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mavericktangoII Posted October 27, 2016 Share Posted October 27, 2016 I don't know if the game restricts it but without cheating or giving them a sugar daddy it must be nigh on impossible. the clubs at the level 20 end can hardly afford a new football let alone a team of players capable of rising to the very top of the game Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jwchriste Posted October 27, 2016 Share Posted October 27, 2016 Money is not much of an issue with this database at these levels. The teams are almost exclusively amateur so there's no player or staff wages to worry about. Retaining players is what's nigh impossible. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I imagine you'll start catching up in reputation once you make it to the default leagues that come with the game. I was monitoring reputation levels in the FM16 version of this file using ScoutGenie. It gets kinda crazy. Firstly my level 23 side periodically made huge leaps in reputation. Then when the next season got underway I noticed a pattern that all clubs that got promoted AND relegated got boosts of 200, so the clubs that stayed in the division might have a rep of 70, and the 4 that joined had 250. It's all a bit of a mess, presumably because SI haven't coded the game how to work at this level. What I was doing was using FMRTE in-game editor to knock my rep back down so that it stayed at the average level of the division I was in. It is my intention to get stuck right into Dan's FM17 file and take one club as far as I can in a year. Apart from the rep anomaly, in general it's easy to bomb through the amateur leagues because the amateur teams are all much of a muchness. When you hit semi-pro level you find some rivals are monied and hard to compete against. I don't know how far I'll get but I'm damn well going to try to get as far as I can!

I've tried to do this the past two years. 2015 I bought the game late in the cycle and ran out of steam by the time 2016 came out. 2016 I made it from L23 up to L11 or L10 (can't remember exactly) and was then hit with the stadium seating bug that reduced my stadium to a 250 all-seater. I had also purposely disabled the in-game editor. Completely took the wind out of my sails. Supposedly SI was fixing that for this year's version. Fingers crossed!
