    2nd season - BSP - who to sign?

    Oliver Norwood if he'll sign is a great buy. The ultimate Lower League set piece specialist. Vitor Lima is a top midfielder too, as is Victor Palsson who'll be available on loan from Liverpool (he should sign the following season) Derrick Williams is a good CB/LB, he may get released by Villa...

    From Scottish Third to splitting the Old Firm...or so I hope

    Fair enough. I'll give it a miss then.

    From Scottish Third to splitting the Old Firm...or so I hope

    From what I can see, those blogs are a graveyard....not a single response to any on the top page!

    From Scottish Third to splitting the Old Firm...or so I hope

    Evening all I'm pretty new to these forums, but I must say it's fantastic to find people who are as addicted to this **** game as I am! I am an old school Lower League Manager, it's all about the romance of taking a tiny club to the very top. (Never understand those who pick United and just...

    Blue Square North/South/Premier Goal Machines

    Badawassi Lorie was my main man at Dartford in the BSS and BSP. 35 goals in BSN as a target man (most of them from standing on the far post from a James Ashmore corner...) and another 25 in the BSP. He's a must signing for all my semi-professional games...

    Goalkeeper needed, Badly!

    Phil Imray was my BSS keeper at Dartford, and he was top drawer. You may be able to sign Christophe Mey if you have the French leagues loaded, who's a top keeper up to LG2, or failing that, you could try and loan Martin Hansen from Liverpool. He'll eventually become a top Championship keeper.

    My Board Sell My Best Player Without Asking Me

    I'm assuming you're a really small club with pretty much no money? Unfortunately, it's just part of the game. As others have said, if your finances are bad you're always going to be at risk of that happening. Staying in your budget and not setting ridiculous bonuses tends to ensure your board...

    Lower League Players : Share and Rate

    Just a question...how are some of you guys paying players £5,000 a week in LG2/BSP? My top earner at any League Two club at the start of the game is on £1,800 at the most....my wage budget is generally only £16,000-£20,000, so £5,000 would cripple me!

    Blue Square Project

    Keane's quality, but he's better when he plays from the start IMO, and his stats rocket, too. In my Lincoln City career he was my top scorer for each of the three years I had him on loan, and he eventually signed when his United contract ran out. He was still banging them in when I made the...

    What Lower League team are you starting your career at?

    I started at Dartford in the BSS, now into my fifth season and I'm in League One. Three promotions in four years, and a defeat in the play off final in my other season... Just about to start my new season, but the club is beginning to feel the strain. For the first time in my career I'm in...

    Blue Square Project

    In midfield, Oliver Norwood from Manchester United is a must. Stunning free kicks and corners, as well as plenty of goals from long range...available on a free at the end of the season, but you need to hang on until he's actually been released otherwise you'll have to pay compensation to United...

    Best loan players in Non League/LG2?

    Evening all, apologies if this has been posted before, but I'm still working my way around here! So I normally like to start in either non-league or League Two at the highest, and as we all know, loan signings can make-or-break your season. I just wondered who your best ever loan signings were...

    Lower League – Tactical Discussion Thread

    Sorry, first ever post on a really old thread! I absolutely agree that playing with wingers is a waste of time. I'm currently playing at Dartford, who I've taken from the Blue Square South to the top of League 2 in four seasons (beaten in the LG2 Play Off final, or it'd be three promotions back...
