Playing FM06 myself, after recently getting it free from a mate - though may have to invest in '07 after seeing it's now only 17 quid in Tesco..
First game - AS Ross County obviously. Hopeless, first season finish 6th, second season I'm 9th and sacked in February, despite still being in the Scottish Cup. Quickly get the job at Ayr, 10th in D2, but win just two of my first 10 games and decide to chalk this game down to experience!
Next..
I took Ross Cty to 4th in my first season with the majority of the squad I inherited. Sold Don Cowie to Livingston in exchange for Dorrans, Snodgrass and Walker plus £25,000.
Ran the team as :
Samson
Irvine -loan
Hamill
Webb
Dowie
Snodgrass
McAuley - loan
Walker
Gardyne - loan
Gunn
Dorrans
At the end of the season I changed things about.
Bought Irvine, Hamill is on a years loan with Berwick, Webb sold to Brechin, Dowie sold to St Johnstone, bought McAuley, loaned Dorrans to Stirling.
Sold Walker to Gretna for £175,000!!!

They offered £30 to start with and I changed it thinking they would back out but they came back in for him!
Team is now:
Samson
Irvine - £1k from Celtic
Nolan - £20k from Celtic
McDonald - £26k from Dundee
McKenzie - £10k from Dundee
Graham - free from Gretna
McAuley - £40k from Aberdeen
??? (can't mind his name!) - loan from Rangers
Snodgrass
Fleck - loan from Rangers
Templeton - £18k plus two reserves from Stenhousemuir.
22 games played and top of the league, just need Gretna to splash another £200k to enable me to get SPL standard players.
