Never mind the 3 seasons lets go for 1
Hahaha Toddzy spoken like a true fan HUH HUH HUH good couple of games and were Champions elect
... You'll have me sacked by the end of season. I have noticed something with one of my players though ... Stat wise
View attachment 267189
Ross I brought in as a possible left wing back, he seems to have the stats for it BUT after a few weeks I noticed all his power stats are sent for a Centre Back, so have set his training in a new position, even played him for 3 games as my Left CB and well you'll see the results in the next up date for November he Played the role against Hull, Rochdale and then Birmingham however got injured in the last 15 minutes of the Birmingham game.
Sky Bet Championship November
A Great November leaves me a little flabbergasted were actually playing reasonable well, letting in goals is still a problem however we do manage out 1st clean sheet of the season. I try out a player in a new position which seemed to work well until he got injured the numpty.
Fixtures
Brentford 1 - 1 FC United
Lussey
FC United 6 - 1 Hull
Samuel
Trinkett-Smith (2)
Helander
Armstrong
Lussey
Home and tick tick boom Hull come up a FC team finally in form, I move Ross into a CB roll push Williams from defence into a Anchor Man roll in front of the back 4 see if we can sure up a leaking defence a little.
FC United 3 - 0 Rochdale
Trinkett-Smith
Armstrong
Lussey
Rochdale ouch they were poor, I suggest they might be finding a route down into the Sky Bet League 1 at this rate. Us well we might make those play-offs
Birmingham 1 - 1 FC United
Samuel
We were 1 nil up into the last 15 minutes Ross pulls up with a thigh strain he'll miss the next game frustrating.

2nd over a third of the season gone phew. Ok I feel there is a chance here if we can consolidate in the winter months for us to have a real chance of the play-offs. I honestly cant see us beating Newcastle they are just 2 strong. I dont see them losing enough games. Coventry & Rochdale both look in trouble at the bottom.
The downside money wise we are really struggling already suffering nearly a million in the red. No chance of bringing in anyone in the January so the squad is the squad

This is truely fantastic so far! I have started my long journey up with my local team Stourbridge. I have just got to the conference. I was wondering if you would be uploading your tactic? I would love to give
Cheers Sam, well we will see later December. January and Maybe February to be played later!
Hahaha thanks well Scotland always produces the occasional talent, and I know I cant figure out why the goals keep flying in possibility its JUST maybe my Defenders aren't quite good enough

Hey Mouldy, I actually use a tactic already loaded by someone else
Best FM 2015 Tactics: Tinkerman's Goalscoring Strikerforce
Having said that its really good for the premier league BUT average for lower levels, you need to move the strikers around a little as you'll struggle to find players able to do the False Nine rolls lower down. But with a few minor tweaks it works ok. I usually play the 1st couple of seasons as structured as again lower league players dont always have the tech skills to be over fluid. Additionally I usually fiddle with the Get Stuck in or Stay on your feet and Higher Tempo only because if you are diving in all the time in conference league lots of players will spend time out from red cards
Hope that helps a little
nice information
Thanks Mark, I've kinda part told it as a story and part as the game so mixed things up, depends as well how FRUSTRATING i was with a certain month or not

Don't want to p*ss on your chips but that regen isn't even 5"6. No way he will develop into a top centre half. Possibly a Makelele type???
Good Luck though. Great read so far

No worries, and no chips P**sing going on
there is something about the boy we play better and concede less when he's in the position, I shall be working on it laterCheers James fingers crossed dude fingers crossed ... however would promotion come as a poisoned chalice.. I'm not sure I have a premier quality player in the squad.
Sky Bet Championship December
Again the snow has arrived but for once we have a great December, 5 games 3 wins 1 draw and a defeat, seriously for us this is a GREAT month. We even get on the TV for a game 1st time this season but I think the boys felt the pressure maybe the manager to as none of us preformed well
Fixtures
Bournemouth 1 - 2 FC United
Lussey
Trinkett-Smith
An away win go figure Strikers have a day when they can't hit a barn door from 5 yrds however both Midfielders whack in 20yarders and we go home happy
FC United 2 - 1 Walsall
Ross
Armstrong
Ross our decent new CB trainee scores his 1st league goal and wins us the game, I'd buy him a beer but not sure he's allowed to drink it yet.
Coventry 1 - 1 FC United
Lussey
Coventry what the **** worse team in the division yet they hold us away, dammit I hold the loss of 2 points here doesn't come back to bit us at the end of the day.
Ipswich 4 - 1 FC United (TV Game)
Samuel
Oh dear not the best LIVE match to get new fans we were dreadful.
FC United 4 - 0 Coventry
Lichaj
Armstrong
Helander
Trinkett-Smith
Time for the Coventry reverse fixture and revenge destroyed them in front out home fans and finish the year off in style
View attachment 266981
So half way through the season and were still nicely sat in 4th good season so far, even though we are now in my normally dodgy zone, I have 3 players topping the Average Ratings but also 3 players in the assists list as goals have been spread across the team

Fixtures
FC United 0 - 1 Derby
No no no no no no no no no, What do you say to a team when it's quite blatant you were robbed

WBA 4 - 2 FC United
Oneto
I was still smarting from the Derby defeat and send the team out under prepared, were 4 nil down within the 1st 20 minutes and well it was damage limitation time
FC United 0 - 1 Newcastle
ARGHHHH 3 Defeats on the bounce
Next UP Arsenal in the FA Cup

Armstrong is injured for this game so Neneca gets his 1st full start in the league and boom finally nets league goals
View attachment 266974
Oneto's amazing month has moved him into the top Scorers league 2nd behind Van the Ham opps, we now have players dominating the Average Ratings and Assists and although we lost 3 games on the bounce in the middle of the month 10 Points from top spot after 34 / 35 games cant be that bad surely. I DO HAVE a chance
Newcastle and Forrest will prove hard to beat though I think if Newcastle didnt draw so many games they'd be over the hill and far away by now. At the bottom I think its just a matter of time before Coventry and Rochdale wave bye bye to this league .. What amazes me at the moment neither had sacked there managers

Dammit there it is the 1 defeat of the month. Again I decide to push in a game we were drawing going for the win let them sneak in behind and pitch the game was a silly decision BUT wont be my last
FC United 1 - 1 Millwall
Helander
Again another silly thing, I let 2 many people stack up yellow cards before looking at making substitutions and then get a player sent off and they score from the free kick.
View attachment 266965
So with a couple of silly draws and that defeat, I've let a little gap appear between me and the top 2 Nottingham Forrest are playing like demons at the moment BUT I recon with 6 WINS there's always a chance of me getting something and we have been on 6 winning games before!
And now we have that player in the Scorers Chart, ALL 4 of the Average Ratings and 3 out of top 4 Assists. I can feel the premiership calling its just about managing each game
