Four Departments Guides

Four Departments

FD 27's four departments are the real tactics screen: medical, sporting direction, marketing and finance in version 0.1.

Read guide
Four departments

A club is a company. Each department changes what you can sign, heal, sell, and spend.

Medical first

The treatment room fills in winter, not in August. A cheap physio is a delayed bill, not a saving.

Four departments

Sporting direction

Your sporting director opens the transfer list you actually see. Fix this second, because the damage is visible.

Transfer window guide

Marketing and shirts

Four slots: shirt, sleeve, shorts, stadium. Underselling the shirt early locks in a cheap deal while reputation is still rising.

How to get sponsors

Finance and debt

Loans for a training ground can pay off. Loans for a striker follow you for seasons. Read the assembly fines before they hit June.

Finance and debt guide
Leagues in version 0.1

England and Spain only at launch. Pick a division that makes wages hurt, or the systems stay invisible.

England

Premier League, Championship, League One and League Two. A first save in League One makes wages, injuries and depth readable in one season.

How to pick a club

Spain

La Liga and Segunda División. Segunda is the sister lesson to League One: every medical hire and shirt deal still matters.

Club picks priority list

What is missing

No European nights in v0.1. The 0.2 sketch names a Chinese league plus Italy, Germany, France and more. Wait if that is a deal-breaker.

Early Access roadmap
Owner tools

Checklists and pickers that turn a first save into a plan instead of a panic.

From the boardroom
First hour as owner

Five decisions that decide whether the season is readable or a debt spiral.

  1. 1

    Pick the chair, not the superstar club

    Experience mode lets you buy widely. Campaign mode removes the purchase budget. Either way, a League One or Segunda club teaches the systems faster than a Premier League giant.

    Club picker notes
  2. 2

    Hire medical before the sporting director

    Everyone wants a better transfer list. The medical bill arrives six months late, when the fixture list is dense and the bench is thin.

    Staff hire order
  3. 3

    Fill sponsor slots without dumping the shirt

    Negotiate shirt, sleeve, shorts and stadium. The first shirt offer is rarely the club's real value. Wait for reputation to move if you can.

    Sponsor slots
  4. 4

    Build training and medical, not the museum

    Eight facilities exist. The museum and store flatter the board. The training ground and medical department win points in April.

    Facilities guide
  5. 5

    Watch matches as diagnostics

    You do not shout from the touchline. Collapse after the 75th minute is fitness staff. Repeat-stupid substitutions are a coach verdict.

FAQ

Wiki FAQ

Quick answers for the boardroom questions owners actually search.

Is FD 27 a Football Manager clone?

No. You are the owner. You do not pick line-ups or shout half-time instructions. You hire the people who do. Read how to play as owner if you are coming from FM.

Which languages does this wiki cover?

English, French, German and Spanish. The game itself ships many more interface languages on Steam, including ones this wiki does not cover.

Is there a free demo?

Yes. A free Steam demo exists alongside the Early Access build. Compare the two on the demo versus full game page.

Does FD 27 have redeem codes or Roblox scripts?

No. This is a paid Steam management sim. There are no Roblox-style codes. Use the staff hire order and finance guide instead.

Can I create my own club?

Not in v0.1. Create-a-club is the 0.4 sketch. Details on create-a-club. Until then you buy a chair from six divisions.

Is this wiki official?

No. It is a fan resource. Confirm patches and prices on the Steam store page and Syra Games channels.
