It should have ups and downs. A narrow, winding path that only the truly great can endure and outlast to become successful. Four years ago (FM-years), I had taken over as Accrington Stanley, predicted to get relegated from League 2. Now, we are in the highest echelon of English football, and with gritted teeth and and determined soldiers (ahem...players), we try to survive the dangers of the top flight. A remarkable achievement is it not? Well you have a try! Become the manager of the Biggest Little Club and take them to the top. Your Challenge Get to the Premiership in 5 seasons So, in September 2012, you will be a Premiership manager Make the challenge more challenging - Win at least 3 trophies (leagues or cups)
- Keep your finances above zero at all times (I didn't do this
) - Keep at least 3 original Accrington players by the time you get into the premiership (I have 2)
Guidelines - No FMM! or other kind of cheating
- Screenshots must be posted at the end of every transfer window of your squad, transfers, finances, league table and Manager overview screen
- This is possible, I did it in 4 seasons!
- GOOD LUCK!

You admitted that you failed two parts.  | | | | 04-07-08, 03:26 PM | #5 (permalink) | | Backup To The First Team Join Date: Oct 2006 Posts: 240 Thanks: 8 Thanked 14 Times in 11 Posts Nominated 0 Times in 0 Posts TOTW/F/M Award(s): 0 | When you keep 2 players in the squad, do you have to play them? Also, do you have to win 3 trophies on way to geting to prem or can you once in the prem? | | | | | 04-07-08, 04:27 PM | #6 (permalink) | | Scout For FMF's DB Update Join Date: Jun 2007 Location: Mississauga, near Toronto Posts: 2,173 Thanks: 362 Thanked 324 Times in 263 Posts Nominated 17 Times in 3 Posts  TOTW/F/M Award(s): 1 | Ru: those were the ideas to make it more challenging, not something you HAVE to do Uptheowls: they should be happy first teamers (no reservists or constantly unhappy fringe players...i have two who make the bench every week) And 3 trophies on your way to the prem. I won League 2, the Johnstone's Paint Trophy, and League 1. | Thanks to Spanish for the userbars :) If you would like me to make you a sig, click on mine! | | | 04-07-08, 06:19 PM | #7 (permalink) | | FMF Donator, V.I.P and Writer.
