I've 'unlocked' the English 7th and 8th tiers but when trying to manage Grantham Town, they don't show as being eligible for the FA Trophy. Looking further into this, I can only see that this competition starts in the 3rd preliminary round, whereas in real life, Grantham should start in the first preliminary round (http://www.granthamjournal.co.uk/sport/football/grantham-town-s-fa-trophy-journey-begins-at-basford-1-7040023).

Does anyone know how to fix this within the editor please and maybe allow the FA Trophy to run from the first preliminary round?

I found this out too when I was in tier 9 and half way through the season before i realised!!!

I'm working to correct this for both the fa trophy and fa vase however it is a bit more difficult than previous years hopefully ill have it ready soon and when I do I will upload

Nice one mate I noticed at the start because I was planning on it being a good source of income! I simulated a few seasons too and Grantham were never in the FA Trophy
