I notice, however, that the tactic has a "home" label, but since you didn't mention anything about it, I'll let it go!

Aye, when I first started creating it this was going to be the home version but it worked so well in all games I never had the need to create the away version.

Had another tweak to this as although I wasn't letting in too many goals, my FC was not getting enough chances. Despite having both AMCs set to to rarely for long shots, they were still attempting too many 30 yard piledrivers and not delivering the ball to the FC.
So I moved one of the AMCs to the MC position and set the him to swap position with the other AMC. Appears to have rectified the problem and the FC is now being given the ball in some very good goal scoring positions again.

i can't seem to load the tactic after downloading it...

You need to put it in the following folder:

My Documents/Sports Interactive/Football Manager 2008/Tactics.

It will then automatically appear in your game.

I can see why. Using Man Utd, I tweaked the tactic slightly, increasing the CF of the right midfielder and swapping a few set piece instructions around.

Managed to beat Chelsea 4-1 in the Charity Shield, and won my first 9 league games (including Chelsea and Arsenal away) convincingly. Also got a fabulous 8-1 result vs Lazio at Old Trafford, though they got 2 red cards in the first 55 minutes.

I did buy Berbatov, who links up with Rooney and Tevez in spectacular fashion. Sold Ferdinand, Silvestre, Saha and brought in Ryan Taylor and Andrea Barzalgi instead.

Slight hiccup in therecent weeks with draws to West Ham and a defeat to Reading, but I put them down to poor personnel selection (rested Rooney, Berbatov).

Definite thumbs up.

Lookinh good so far Riox, nice to see it works with lower league teams because as soon as the final patch is out I plan to start a lower league game myself.

It'll be good if this tactic works for me in the lower leagues.

Man Utd 6-2 PSV

Seems to work VERY well against European teams.
