I just realised I won't be able to play as Worcester City in the next edition of Football Manager due to the lowest playable teams being in the Vanarama North/South.

You can, but even though they (mostly) use the correct player names for divisions lower than Vanarama North/South, no scouting has taken place of these divisions or players. They employ actual scouts to gauge the ability and strengths/weaknesses/personalities of players in the originally playable divisions. So even though the player names would be accurate, that's as far as the realism would go. It's ok, I'll stick with FM17 where it's the 25/26 season and City are in League One. |

I remember I got City to 4th in the prem by about 2023 in FM2010. I'd say the realism in FM isn't very accurate at NLN level anyway. Just look at the wages and the ability of some and it's laughable. |

Based on that timeline, I still have another 3 seasons to make the Prem, lol. There are some anomalies with wages at the lower levels, with far too many players earning 1k+ on part-time contracts. When you eventually become full-time, wages aren't affected at all for some reason. As far as I recall, City's starting 16/17 season squad wasn't rated too differently from their real abilities. Nelson-Addy was rated too high - predicted to be a good Vanarama National level player in the future. I remember laughing at that one a bit. |
