An Introduction to Lower League Management

With an increased media coverage and more revenues to the top flights, the gap between the professional football leagues and amateur leagues has increased in the last decade. Some would claim that football has lost it soul and that the pure joy of football is in the magical wonder of lower league football, where the stands are filled with locals, your neighbors down the street, fellow co-workers or citizens of the same town as you. While the crowd can’t be compared to the 55,000 spectators at the stadium of Manchester City it’s an amazing atmosphere surrounding the local lads which makes up the starting XI of Maine Road FC, which plays in the level 9 division North West Counties League Premier Division and was founded in 1955 by Manchester City Supporters. It’s similar for every local clubs in regional divisions. Despite not competing for a FA Cup trophy or a place in the Champions League, there’s nothing more ‘serious’ than a regional division match, where friends or colleagues meet up hungover after a few hours of sleep to dress up in the club colors of their local club on a Sunday morning. What stands out may not be their technique or football intelligence but a passion for football which is revealed through work rate and determination to do your best for your team as you try to copy your idol.

Two completely different worlds you might say. The excitement surrounding the match might be the same either it’s Manchester City or Maine Road FC, but the conditions for a victory are different as the players are amateurs, the training facilities and stadium facilities are as worst as it gets. The only similarity you may find between the professional players of Manchester City and the local club at Maine Road is the colorful soccer boots that touches the grass.

It’s in the lower leagues real football is being played and it’s in a lower league management save the greatest challenge of Football Manager lays within. Either you start off your lower league journey as manager of Tooting & Mitcham of the Isthmian South Central Division at level 8 or in any club found deep down in the national league system, either it is England, which we will focus on here, or USA, Norway or Scotland for that matters, you are certain to test your managerial abilities. A Football Manager English Lower League save may take decades, as the difficulty of promoting from level 10 or below will take years and an extreme amount of dedication and patience, as the difficulty of earning money enough to improve your facilities and expand your stadium will be as major challenge as improving your squad depth outside the annual youth intake.

Frankly, an English lower leagues management journey is one of the greatest and hardest challenges of Football Manager, where the chance of taking one of the local clubs from the bottom of the English league system to the top is nearly impossible – but can you do it?

The Complete English League pyramid is one of the most honorable league systems in the world. The English football pyramid consists of 22 levels in total spread around the nation after its geographical location. The national league system found below League 2 is split up after the different counties to provide amateur clubs a suitable level of competition within their region. This custom Football Manager database is one of the biggest English lower league databases ever created and features the complete English league system down to the level 11, but will be build upon down to the level 22.

Here the absolute goal is to hunt for promotions, from the bottom level 22 at first to the next, or from the Isthmian Premier Division to Vanarama North / South depending on your choice of level of challenge. Here the amount of obstacles to succeed are too many, to avoid getting sacked at your first try. Here the excitement of simply winning the next match or reaching the round 1 of the FA Cup are as exciting as winning the English Premier League with a mid-table club – can you do better than Leicester, become a management legend, a hero for future generations?

A massive work has been done so far with this database and once finished, the current English lower leagues Level 10 database will be completed down to level 22.
