Re: Footy manager

Not played any of the latest ones but my old trick was go to prem teams and get 3 reserve/youth players on year long loans - don't even offer to pay their wages. Try and get 1 CB, 1 CM and 1 STR this way. You can play up to 5 loan players in a game - so get another 2 loan players on short term loans, again from big clubs. I know on FM09 stanley were linked with Liverpool and so could get a lot of players from there.

Apart from that look for players approaching end of contract that are worth a lot of cash - offer a 10th of the value - you might just get it.

Then go after ex-stanley players who are out of contract (ie Brett Omerod).

Finally after the first season look for the players you had on loan from big clubs who have been released - offer them a contract they are more likely to sign for you if they have played for you before on loan.
