🔄 Some news: NLFM has a new name.
Over the coming weeks, we’ll be becoming Non-League Manager, complete with a brand-new logo.
Recently, the team at Sports Interactive, the makers of Football Manager, got in touch about our name. Their concern was the potential for confusion, with people assuming our games were connected. We completely understood, and we were more than happy to make the change.
We’d also like to thank them for the way they’ve handled it. From the very first conversation, they’ve been warm, generous and supportive: everything you’d hope for, and more than you’d expect.
The whole team here have been fans of their games since the Championship Manager days, so finding the people behind them to be every bit as brilliant as their work has meant a great deal.
We’re excited to complement the football management sim space they’ve led for so long, and even more excited about the future, with both of us working in the space we love.
Non-League Manager. Same game, new name.

✅️ Question your formation.
✅️ Change it.

✅️ Tell yourself you're definitely not changing it again.
✅️ Kick-off.
#NonLeague
The road to Wembley starts a long way from Wembley. 🏆
FA Cup. FA Trophy. FA Vase. Cup football is part of the journey, whether you're dreaming of a giant-killing or just hoping to survive the Extra Preliminary Round. #NonLeague
90 minutes. Your decisions. ⚽️
Pick the XI, set them up and watch the match unfold through the match engine. Make changes, use your bench and hope the bloke you've trusted up front actually puts one away. 👀 #NonLeague
Sometimes your next signing is just down the road. 📍
Search the available players, check what they’re looking for and, importantly, see how far away they live. At this level, geography matters.
Your new striker probably isn't relocating 200 miles for £50 a week. 😂 #NonLeague
Another club, officially in the game. 🤝
We’ll be showing off plenty more of the clubs who have given us permission to use their official identity over the coming weeks. Keep an eye out for yours. 👀
NEW: Bognor Regis Town, Denmead, Goring United and Hertford Town.

How are you setting up? 🧠
Pick your formation. Choose your mentality. Decide how you want your side to play. Possession? Direct? Long ball? Counter-attack? Wing play?
No gegenpress. No inverted-whatever.
Just football. ⚽️ #NonLeague

Transfers are a HUGE part of #NLM.
Geography plays a key role as you look to build your squad. Read more about them via the article below.

It looks like Dan has discovered you need more than one goalkeeper in your squad! Ouch! 😬
Hopefully he works at a cleaning store and can bring you back some wipes? 😁
The perils of #NLM squad management.
(Yes my screen needs a clean)
@nlm_game is KILLING me!
Top of the league after 17 games with @TadleyCallevaFC and we travel to secons place @BLFC1907 on a Tuesday night.
My only goalkeeper works FT and is unavailable 😳
What a game they have created 😅👏
You can't just nick their player. 👀
Put in your 7-day approach and wait. Unless their club agrees to let you speak to him sooner, of course... Recruitment works a little differently down here. ⚽️
