Ok, so I'm about to start a new save and I plan on doing something different from the way I usually play. I'm going to choose 3 different sides to manage in the same save, 1 conference or league 2 side, 1 club from any nation who's not considered a massive club, and 1 massive club. So my question is which 3 clubs should I choose?

Depends on the nation you choose but if you choose England I would go with:

1. Man Utd - they don't come much biger in terms of size of stadium and quality of squad at the start of the game.

2. League Two or Conference then I would say if you have a team near you who plays in those divisions then choose them. Failing that I would probably look at the current real life league tables and go with whoever is struggling at the foot of the table and see if you can do better on the game with them.

As for the third team, you've got a lot of options to choose from in the lower league in England. If there is still a random team generator option in FM 2008 then just use that and if you don't fancy the team generated then click again.

As gav said for the Big Club possibly Man Utd, Liverpool Chelsea or someone

For a League 2 club Darlington seem to have a decent squad this season and also a 25000 stadium

Club from another nation possibly Parma or Palermo from Italy, Villarreal from Spain
