Purchase players to suit the roles. The half-back is the most important player in the team and is responsible for the defensive strength of the team only conceding 28 goals in a 46 game League One season. The Inside Forward and will provide as many goals as the lone striker provided they are of a good quality. Advised to switch to positive in games you expect to win. If you are struggling to break down the opposition, you can add 'Be More Expressive/Pass Into Space and switch to an Attacking mentality.
Most of the tactics you see uploaded have only been tested with strong Premier League teams, so you can be confident that this tactic will serve you well in the lower leagues.
This is my first ever tactic upload, hopefully this provides enough information!

Second save using/testing this tactic with Oldham in League 2.
1st position in the table currently.

Only 13 goals conceded, the half back is still the most important player in this tactic. You'll notice he plays as a centre back, defensive midfielder and all round ball winner, absolutely vital to reducing goal scoring opportunities for the opposition and leading the way when pressing to retrieve the ball.
My Oldham team was predicted 22nd and we are currently top. Most games I have adapted the tactic to start with an ATTACKING mentality, and I've allowed the fullbacks to OVERLAP, as I noticed that when caught on the counter the half back drops back causing the centre backs to sit wider and almost cover for the full backs.
Finally you can utilise the instructions to be more expressive/pass into space if struggling to break down the opposition.
If you follow the instructions I set out, buying/loaning players for the specific roles this tactic will serve you well. It isn't perfect and needs slight tweaking depending on the strength of your team. My advice would be to play attacking and overlap the fullbacks if you aren't scoring.
Proven to work in L2, L1 and the Championship!
Turkey you need to follow the instructions I set out, make sure you aren't playing your centre backs up front and your keepers on the wing ;-)
After a 0-0 home draw with Luton Town I have decided that this is a poor tactic that shows no signs of getting better.
It's dull and boring to watch in the engine, it creates very few chances and gives away lots.
I see you had success congrats, but this is not the all conquering formation you claim.
