Why not create a document that you can send to people to fill in for their local team(s) this will save you from having to look it up. I for one would certainly be willing to assist


That's not a bad idea. I'd happily take roster info from others on this. I'm not really sure what form such a document might take. I've been really impressed by the amount of record-keeping that seems to go on in the lower leagues, but it does depend on the team as to how much info is available. In the Evo-Stik Southern Premier, the info for Bideford was very nicely presented, but was much harder to obtain for Biggleswade, for example.

I'm pretty new to the editor, but in absence of other responses, it seems to be Regional Divisions.

For example:

NB: I tried to add this as a file, but it just said "Bad Gateway" over and over.

More than just a bunch of new leagues and teams. Aims to provide as much detail as possible for the English Lower League system with full teams, faces and competitions reflecting real life.

Progress so far: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1T1jzE_TtHg6Bty61Km1ZcqyDuYrAcxLz6067gn6XcBU/edit?usp=sharing

There are many English Lower League updates for Football Manager, and I've tried a lot over the years, but most of them don't have accurate leagues, or league rules, or miss out cups, and most miss out real players. None I've seen have attempted reserve and youth leagues. The aim is to change all that and provide something with the same level of detail you would find in the official leagues included with the game.

I'd really like people to give this a try, so I'm offering up a very early version for feedback.

There are two files. You only really need the database file, but the graphics are there if you want realistic logos, faces and the like.

I'd recommend starting as Bedworth United in the Evo-Stik Southern Premier League (tier 7) because it's one of the most fully complete teams, with a full roster for their first team, U21 team and U18 team, and there's a whole load of real cups to enter throughout the season. Unfortunately U21 and U18 leagues, while in the database, are not yet playable due to my lack of knowledge of the advanced rules editor.

Feedback welcome of course.

Updates

ALPHA 0.18
Added complete tier 11 structure for main pyramid divisions, 43 divisions, ~700 clubs. They're playable but pretty boring at the moment because they have no kits, players, history or logos yet.

ALPHA 0.17
Complete squad, staff, history and other details for Bideford, including all player pictures available and full player and staff history. Screenshots: http://imgur.com/a/Rt9Rg
