Seriously, work out what your weakest positions are, and try to find cheap/free players on the player search. If you're conceding too many, change your formation and put another defender at the back, if you're not creating enough chances, put 5 across the midfield, if you're not scoring enough chances, put an extra striker up front.
And try to get rid of any reserve/youth players who either aren't going to play much/at all, or who don't look a decent prospect for the future. At clubs right down the bottom, you only have enough money to play for a decent first team squad, you can't have any strength in depth. Also, try to find a few players available for loan who you could without paying their wage.

try playing with defensive formation against better teams and offensive when playing at home.
Other than that it is all in your players.

Hmmm...the problem is, that my limited pool of players are not particularly versatile either...I've got 6 strikers in my squad, 1 centre-mid, 4 left full-backs

I mean, how do they survive in real life?...play 6 up-front? I'm beginning to get the feeling I have taken on a poisoned-chalice.

Quite silly to take charge of Chavant, to be honest. Shit club, shit ground, chav fans.

just eat lots of oranges, and get them to jerk each other off at half time.
I'll donate my old wank sock.

I'm not allowed to be nice about Havant I'm afraid, I'm a Weymouth fan
I was damn happy when they kicked Dorchester's ass the other day though

The ol' Havant/dorchester face-off...I'm always bustling through my havant pre-season calender looking for that one.
