2. Hold down the space bar during the matches to speed them up.
3. Continental or Passing style are the styles with the highest success rate. (For me any way.
4. Only give win bonuses for big games e.g. Europe, Fa Cup, League Cup, Derbys or against teams that are very high in the league. Too many win bonuses lessens their effect. The following table is the amount I recommend for each type of match.
| Competition/Round | Amount to give |
| Fa Cup | |
| 1st-3rd Round | £100 |
| 4th-Semis | £1000 |
| Final | £10000 |
| League Cup | |
| 1st, 2nd round | none |
| 3rd-Quarter final | £500 |
| Semi Final | £1000 each leg |
| Final | £10000 |
| Champions Cup | |
| Every Match | £10000 |
| UEFA Cup | |
| 1st round-Semis | £5000 each leg |
| Final | £10000 each leg |
| Cup Winners Cup | |
| 1st round-Semis | £5000 each leg |
| Final | £10000 |
| League | |
| Derbys | £1000 |
| Team in high position | £1000 |
5. At the start of each season try to improve your staff. Choose to make the decision by yourself not by the board. When making the search select, "Superb","Unemployed, Third Division". Try to select the RESPONSIBLE ones. If you can't find a superb one (that will sign for you), try "Very Good" and so on.
6. If you are winning your maches regularly, ignore the board's message "We feel your team selection somewhat questionable". You'll always get this if you play 2-4-4.
7. TURN OFF THE VIDIPRINTER! It is stupid and annoying (in my opinion) and the game is so much quicker and better without it.
8. Select players with Influence 20 and character "Responsible" as captains. (Quite obivious, but I know a few people who play those with "Withdrawn" character)
9. For good bargains, look at the players with high-average rating in the third division Average Rating table. High ratings are easy to get in the premier divison(easy compared to CM2 Enhanced and the other divisions) but hard to get in the third (again compared to CM2 Enhanced and the other divisions).
10. The European market usually has the best bargains (such as Nii Lamptey-what happened to him when he really came to England, he was so good in CM1?) and you don't have to negotiate with the team about the asking price. However, beware of buying too many foreigners as this may affect your chances of winning something in Europe.
I hope these tips can help you get success in CM1
