Easy wins hints

-Create a custom player and add them to your opponent's team. Then, choose "Quick Tactics" and all of your opponent's players to attack. Place an arrow from the goalkeeper to the striker and you should win easily.

-Fire your old assistant manager and acquire the best one possible by going to "Search" on the tree menu, then clicking "Staff". Make a plan on where you want to come in the season and in the next three seasons, then decide who you are going to release and your main transfer targets for that season. Try ti get the teams morale up and work on that.

Easy money hint

Place a player on the Transfer List that CPU's teams are interested in and when they make an offer, reduce it to £0 then put a buy back clause of £1,000. Scroll down and enter a clause "After League Appearance - 1", then increase that to the amount that they offered. Once the player makes his debut for the team, you will receive the money and can then buy him back for £1,000. Note: This is especially useful for youth players, as it allows you to earn money from them while being able to get them when they develop for almost nothing and also saves the wages.

April Fool's Day joke

Set the system date to April 1st and advance the in-game date also to April 1st to get a message stating your board is willing to offer you £500 million in transfer funds and a new season. Accept it to find out it is a joke by the game's developers.
