Hello FMscout!

I decided to sign up after stumbling across the LoL Guide by joannes3000 when browsing for FM tips via google search.

At the moment, I am only playing the FM 2011 demo but have started to find it increasingly enjoyable. Having played the old CM-01/02 game up until this season (with all the necessary updates) it was finally starting to lose it's appeal and thought I'd have a go at the latest edition of FM. I previously owned FM 2009 and FM 2007 but didn't enjoy either of them.

However, the current FM is enjoyable, for one reason or another and at the moment I am enjoying managing non-league Boreham Wood in the Conference South division. (I used to go and watch them as a kid).

I've not reached the end of the demo yet, I assume it ends in December during the 1st season? but I'll probably end up buying the FM game for real once I do.

So, hello from a total newbie to FM. If you like Lower League Management, then I like you already and want as much advice as I can take!

Welcome to the site mate. I have to say I do like going into lower league management now and again, Gateshead Blyth Spartans and Forest Green are just a few I have managed over a few saves :)

Thanks for the welcomes guys! Currently still in September on my save, so don't think I'll be buying the game just yet. Saying that, might check my local CEX store to see if they've got it on the cheap.

Are there any more guides or threads for lower league management I should know about?

Cheers everton23.

I'm quite shocked how expensive the game is going for, saw it for £20 in CEX and that's 2nd hand. I might try ebay.
