clayton373 Posted October 25, 2018 Share Posted October 25, 2018 I couldn't see that anyone has started a thread for players to sign in the Vanarama National Leagues so I thought I'd kick It off! If there is one already fee free to close this one! I'll start. Signed for free but did have to fend off Wrexham by offering high wages: Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SirCular Posted October 25, 2018 Share Posted October 25, 2018 So far for my Salford City save in terms of permanent signings I've brought in Milan Lalkovic and Florent Cuvelier. Lalkovic has been a stand out performer as a Winger at AMR. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RyanBrown Posted October 26, 2018 Share Posted October 26, 2018 Hopefully this gets updated more, very much looking forward to my lower league save this year. Always nice to see what other gems people find, especially those before me. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
KF1990 Posted October 26, 2018 Share Posted October 26, 2018 Did briefly start as Billericay and managed to sign Aaron Kuhl on a free who is good. Also Cody McDonald is on a free and a very good striker for lower league. Might also be worth having a look at Nile Ranger although he does request 5k a week wages so may only be able to sign with someone like Salford.

EvertonblokesMobile Posted October 29, 2018 Share Posted October 29, 2018 Great players so far. Before seeing this thread I already signed Grandison, and had Curvalier, Best, and Kuhl all on trial, all of which I was very tempted to make offers for, but didnt have the budget. I'm finding Ben Hinchcliffe (unattached at the start) is massively overperforming, I got him in as his wages were pretty cheap and could be back up on the left wing. Had to start him up front one game and he gets a hat trick, then shortly after hits 4 in a game! Think hes up to 10 goals now in about 6 starts. I'm playing as Salford Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pedroig Posted October 29, 2018 Share Posted October 29, 2018 Have Hinchcliffe on York (Ok, so Vanarama North, but signed for expected promotion to National), mainly playing up front, he has been a very pleasant signing... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

EvertonblokesMobile Posted October 29, 2018 Share Posted October 29, 2018 Hinchcliffe is actually on 8 goals in 6 league starts. Not quite as good as I thought, but still great. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Milky Posted October 30, 2018 Share Posted October 30, 2018 Playing as Billericay for my Beta save I signed Harry Darling for 80k. Playing him as a Ball Playing Defender, he has some good player traits for this position. The other three players are all young players I picked up for free.

Barnetfan Posted October 30, 2018 Share Posted October 30, 2018 I am currently gateshead, Luke Armstrong has 14 goals in 14 games he's on loan from Middlesbrough could be a good permanent player.

The Rookie Posted October 31, 2018 Share Posted October 31, 2018 My Billericay side we’re conceding too many goals so I would recommend Brad Watkins on a free, excellent keeper at that level. I also managed to sign Jordan Thompson a centre half from Coventry, certainly added some pace in my defence. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tanzinho Posted November 2, 2018 Share Posted November 2, 2018 Left back called Christian Hill is great if you use attacking full backs just signed a winger/cam from Ireland called Connor Barry who looks like he could be tasty at the tip of my diamond playing as Kidderminster in Conf N.

matt__h Posted November 6, 2018 Share Posted November 6, 2018 Every season my first career is a create a club in in the Vanrama South. I choose one of the lowest ranked teams in terms of reputation and budget. I start the career with 0 players in my squad and a budget of about 8k p/w for wages and zero transfer budget. This makes it tough to attract players as most think the squad (correctly) is too weak. Anyway I managed to pick up some real gems on FT for Vanrama South. I’m top of league after 12 games playing 3/5/2 with attaching wing backs. All of the below are 23 years old or younger Joe Boyd - solid sweeper keeper have signed him on FT every season since FM17 Brandon Barzey - pacey RWB Joel Whittingham - even pacier LWB (crossing 10 / pace 16 / acceleration 15) Brad Carr - Technical CM / playmaker Rui Da Costa - all round midfielder Josh Hesson - Tough tackling RB / CM / DM utility player Deon Moore - solid Lower league striker. Pace / acc / finishing / composure all above 10 Michael Cregan - Poacher My Assitant Manager rates all of the above as good Vanrama South Players (Brad Carr Vanrama National) all have potential to be at worst Vanrama National players Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barnetfan Posted November 6, 2018 Share Posted November 6, 2018 Just won the league with Gateshead, amassing a total of 111 points. Luke Armstrong scored 39 goals in 46 games.

SteveUK Posted November 7, 2018 Share Posted November 7, 2018 Latest update seems to have done something to being able to offer contracts to free players for me. Players i could offer contracts to yesterday now say "I am very interested in joining the club in general, but i feel it lacks the financial muscle to even get close to my contract demands", seems to only apply to foreign players as i can offer 1.5k wages as Dagenham to one of the British players on my shortlist but a guy i know only asked for £400p/w yesterday won't even open negotiations.

It will depend if you are professional. You can only sign players who have played in the country or are of the countries nationality if you are semi-pro or professional - I think.

He was playing as a left midfielder as his attributes were much better there, but failure to retrain left him sidelined.

torquayfmer Posted March 2, 2019 Share Posted March 2, 2019 Started a save with Torquay, Liam Hegarty for right back has been great for me so far and my coaches think he has potential to play league one/two.

Also had Jack Diamond on loan from Sunderland, a left winger who was really good but didn't want to sign a loan extension unfortunately so only had him for a few months.

CityAndColour Posted May 13, 2019 Share Posted May 13, 2019 For anyone looking at central defenders, former Mansfield defender Kieran Harrison is available on a free and he is a bit of an aerial beast. He's 6'2 and has 15 for heading, 14 for jumping reach and 15 for determination, meaning he is good for 7-10 goals a season just from set pieces. Has the potential to be a Conference National player at worst. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
