Has anyone managed to use this system for friendly games. I followed instructions from manual by selecting other competition and then friendly. When I typed in teams they could not be found even though they are on system. I can key in as if a league game which does work but is not correct as this was a friendly.

I just gave this a whirl to log a pre-season friendly from earlier in the month (no cautions etc). It worked okay.

The key is to be patient when you enter a fragment of the team name for it to search on. e.g. type 'Manches' then wait while the pointer spins round for about 5 seconds, then it will display the possible matches for that team name. Don't hit submit or anything at that point - just wait!
 
I had the same question from @padiman at the weekend and patience is the key. It took me 3 attempts to get WGS to find one of the teams he was looking for but using Other Competitions and the first 3 letters of the clubs name can work.
 
Thanks for your help. I have now managed to submit. Key was just typing a few letters and then waiting for list of options. I was keying in whole name of teams in exactly as was eventually found on the WGS but it was saying could not find teams !
 
Does anyone know what sql timeout error means, I keep getting it
 
SQL is a database. Basically it means the FA database is poorly designed and it's taking longer than the systems default time to lookup the data.
 
Well finally got it in there but now won't send .. Phone call to county
