[FM19] Meet the Johnsons (Columbus become a team of Johnsons)

[themodelcitizen]

Dec. 18, 2017 - the #SavetheCrew campaign managed to keep MLS side Columbus alive, however, the club's new stadium won't be in Ohio.

Johnson City, TN has stepped up, with mayor Phil Roe inviting them to play in front of temporary stands at Kermit Tipton Stadium until the new ground is ready.

The price for such civic generosity? Field an MLS roster made up of Johnsons.

Jan 8, 2018 (preseason) - head coach Lee Johnson, freshly acquired from English club Bristol City, sized up the Crew roster. "Anyone not named Johnson can get the f*ck out," he yelled at the bemused squad. "You've all been waived."

Over the rest of the day, a steady stream of Johnsons arrived to fulfill mayor Roe's bizarre request, including US internationals Fabian and Sean. Some Scandinavian Jonsson-types were allowed in to round out the roster.

Your mission? Keep drafting and signing Johnsons (might help to load the English and possibly Danish/Norwegian leagues for regens) and turn Johnson City Crew into a dynasty.

Spoiler

The Crew (nicknamed the Big Johnsons) keep their academy (the Small Johnsons) and link to the Michigan-based Crew Academy Wolves (the Hairy Johnsons).

Canadian brand Johnson & Johnson have taken over the shirt sponsorship.
