Have seen this save lurking around quite a few forums, so thought I might give it a go. Premise is pretty simple - I'm in charge of Fairwarp, who are the worst playable (or lowest playable) team in the English football ladder. They are expected to finish rock bottom by an absolute mile in the 22nd tier of football, making them the worst team in England (Sunderland came a close second, mind). The challenge? Well, maybe not to be the best, but not the worst would be a good start for one.
First challenge will be putting people in this club, cause, well.....duh.
Will get back in a bit (or never, I'm not good with sticking with these saves.)

Me. A legend in the making?

My first team. I'm very happy with it. A good blend of talent and experience, potential and ability. Key players include Norwegian defender Snorre Strand Nielsen, midfielder Isaac Galliford, Nigerian striker Onoma Sodje and 16-year-old winger Keanu Williams. Most of these players are good enough for Level 8, so I would put us as the best amateur side in the country.
The tactic. Keeping it simple, standard 4-4-2. Nothing fancy to see here.
The staff. Lots of former players including Dan Trenkel, Mark Burgess and the one and only, Wayne Shaw. Neil Mackenzie is the only staff member still playing.
Financially, looking good. With us not spending on anything, can't see us losing too much money in the season to come.

vs AFC Hurst II: We first went to AFC Hurst II, where we went down within 10 minutes, but fought back courtesy of a brace from George Burton, as well as goals for Galliford and Sodje.
vs East Grinstead Town III: We then went away in the Junior Cup to East Grinstead Town, where it took a 97th minute goal from Burton to break the 1-1 deadlock.
vs Ifield Galaxy II: We narrowly came away victors in our first home game of the season, through an Onome Sodje goal.
vs Fletching II: Another narrow victory in our next fixture, as we barely scraped the three points, courtesy of an 89th minute own goal.
vs West Hoathly II: A good victory over West Hoathly II, despite a missed penalty we got a comfortable 3-1 victory.
vs Scaynes Hill III: Another Cup game, another extra time win, another George Burton winner.
Looking comfortable with the three point gap, hoping for more form like this in the months to come.

You'd be right in thinking that. I always find any player with pace is god from levels 22-12. As soon as you get to level 12 (A level I actually start from if doing LLM) I look for players that have high work rate and team work stats. Any center half at least 6 foot is fine, any striker with finishing of 6 can score a few at that level.
