Really enjoying the tactic in this years game.

As normal, I started off with a team in the Qatar league second division. Easily got promoted.
second season got to and lost two cup finals on penalties (against better teams) was 2nd in the league when I was approached by Al Sadd (Qatar’s biggest club) who were mid table at the time. Sorted them out over the summer then won the league with ease, won two out of the three cup computions (lost the other on penalties again!)

have just moved to Hibernian so will try my luck in Scotland now!

All using the the original tactic. My first couple of seasons I was conceding a fair few but still scooting. In the leagues I was in there are no decent ball playing defenders so I had to make do. By the end of my third season (my last in Qatar) I was keeping clean sheets often even with average defenders. Kept around 10 clean sheets in a row towards the end of the season! Only lost one league game and didn’t draw any!

Yeah been living here nearly six years now. Pretty much every FM save of mine starts with a team in the Qatar 2nd division!
 
In the OP you talk about the tactic where instead of three strikers you had two with an AP instead. I'm not a fan of the three-striker thing, honestly, so can I have a link to the previous version with the AP and two strikers?

Overdue update - Salford City

Evening all. I took a break from FM for a while. Checked this thread a few weeks back and quite disappointed it did not seem to have the attention it deserved, so rather than go a big team I thought I'd give it a go with a low side and see where I could get. So far, 4 season in, 4 league wins. Salford City. In real life they have a superb budget in their league. This save has not been easy at all. During Vanarama National League North, Vanarama National League, League Two, League One, I spent a combined total of £4.8k!!!!! This was on one player. The rest had to be freebies due to their restricted budget. The proof is in the pudding. This tactic works!!!! After first season, I'd been predicted to finish bottom every season. Will post an update after current season but the attached shows it's a superb tactic!!! Regardless of what team you are. It's an absolute dream for strikers! I'm still playing GK and one ST that I had in first season, in Championship and still doing superb!! The annoying thing is throughtout is the finances. Wanted to increase my stadium every year due to good attendances. At the start, stadium only holds approx 5-6k, approx 2.5k of these seats. Only in current season the board has decided it's time to expand.....by 2k seats only, which is maximum this stadium can go to!!! Will be interested to see what happens at the end of this season IF I go up! Anyway, hope lots of you are still using this tactic and having as much fun as I am! This is latest update! Apologies for not posting for a while!
 
Amazing tactic!
Thank you for standart mentality!

Do you have the same with 2 CB?
 
Just looking for a good tactic to use on the Switch, which means I can't download frustratingly.

In the first post you put a screenshot of the team instructions which is great. Are there any individual player instructions, too? Or just the default ones for each role selected?

Thanks, looking forward to giving it a go!

Hey, are you using the original tactic from the OP? Are there any attacking and waste time versions for this tactic?
 
This tactic is amazing! I started a game with Aarhus Fremad in the Danish second division. The club is all amateur, but i managed to get 12 players on free transfer to sign up for my team.
We WON the second division! I am in second season now, the team plays in Danish First Division, 11 games played, we are in 1st place! I can sign part time contracts now, but only for one year, which means most players reject it. Fact is no new players join in 2nd season and as I said, we are number 1.
Incredible

Hello mate. I've quickly come on to reply to people. The individual player instructions are in the comments earlier on in thread, maybe about between page 25-35 (can't remember from memory), but if you reply to this it'll remind me to find them next time I'm on :)
 
5 seasons, 5 promotions, Salford FC now in English Premier League!!!

As promised, here's an update from the last comment on the Salford save :) As you will see, first 4 season I won each League I was in (relying on free signings due to poor budget except 1 player I signed for £4.8k). 5th season (in the Championship), budget a big better, you can see I spent £775k. Most of the season I was approx 10th in the league. You can see in the last 17 games of the season I won 15 of them!! Last game of the season I was 1 point behind Wolves. I was home vs Middlesborough, they were home vs Reading. Obviously I had to win and hoped Wolves would draw/lose. I won 2-0 and Wolves lost 1-0 (in the 93rd minute!!), taking me into the Premier League!! This save alone proves how well this tactic works, it really is miraculous!! Now little Salford City with their 7,000 seater stadium are in the Premier League! I have a transfer budget of £20m for next season so that should be fun! I've literally only used the tactic in the OP, have made no changes to it at all. Won the league first 4 seasons (3 of these I was expected to finish rock bottom) and then finally finishing 2nd to a very good Southampton side. If anyone has any doubts about this tactic, this save should put doubts at ease! Minimal spent and stuck with the tactic. Genuinely made up about it!!!! Next stop, Champions League!!!

Hey DanielKing, is it possible for you to share the original 532 tactic please? I know you wrote that the AM/SS was useless in that tactic, but I want to try make a 532 with 3 CMs from the original version.

Thanks for your great work!!!

Apologies I deleted it completely mate and kept just this successful one. May be worth using the one in OP and just editing it in irder to play 3cms? Good luck anyway :)
