Had a mess around with the data editor.
Imagine Ronald's dream failed and the club's mounting debts and inability to meet monetary obligations led to liquidation. A new fan-owned phoenix club, AFC Southend United, have been entered into Ryman League Division 1 North. No debts of any kind, same club colours, rivalries/favoured personnel retained, but essentially a new club - semi-professional, awful players, little money, ground sharing with Canvey at Park Lane. Ever-so-slightly more money and ever-so-slightly higher reputation than the other clubs in the division due to the "old club's" recent status as a Football League club.
It's your job to "do an AFC Wimbledon".
I have used a pre-existing (and very popular) editor data file from the Sports Interactive forums, for which a dedicated couple of people have opened up the English non-league game as far down as the regional first divisions (of which Ryman 1 North is one). I then made my own editor data file in which I have made Southend United "extinct" and created AFC Southend United as a new club. Both files need to be loaded when starting the game for the scenario to work.
If anyone is interested in giving it a go, I'll link the files. I am about to start a game myself.
