Hershie Posted February 18, 2010 Share Posted February 18, 2010 Firstly, an preemptive apology incase anything here isn't as it should be, and another for any poor grammar/spelling that I shall blame on the time. So, after struggling to get into a game for a few months, I decided to finally commit to a game in Cyprus, using the edit I have spent time creating, and that is presently posted in the editors forum. Yes, I'm that shameless. I chose to be Omonoia Nicosia, one of the most successful, widely supported and prosperous clubs on the island; but one who have underachieved in recent years. My aim? To taste European success. No funny challenges, no aims to use only youth players or to buy only from a particular nation; simply to take the club as far as I can, however I can. Within the (moral and actual) rules, of course. Game: Football Manager 2010 Patch: 10.2 Leagues loaded: Cyprus (D division and above) Database size: Large. Approx. 100k players loaded (all from Cyprus, national rep. from Europe and South America) Αθλητικός Σύλλογος Ομόνοια Λευκωσίας/Athletic Club Omonoia Nicosia Year Founded: 1948 Stadium: GSP Stadium Capacity: 22859 All-Seater Media Prediction: 2nd Continental Competition: Europa League Star Players: Aguiar (MC) - Aloneftis (AML) - Makridis (AMRC) - Zurawski (ST) - Konstantinou (ST) History: AC Omonoia was founded in 1948 as a result of political turbulence of that period and the ongoing conflict between the left-wing and right-wing in the Greek Civil War. In May 1948 APOEL sent a letter based on political content to SEGAS (Greek Gymnastic-Athletic Clubs Association), stating members violated the club's statute to not be involved in politics and those that where not right-wing where sent out from APOEL. After that letter, several footballers of the club criticized their club for its unfair ways which caused those players to be expelled from the team. Those players, along with others, established a new club which would also be based in Nicosia. The club would be named Athletic Club Omonoia Nicosia. In 1953, clubs that were members of the Cyprus Amateur Football Federation joined the Cyprus Football Association. Omonoia joined the Cypriot First Division in 1953 as well, finishing seventh out of nine clubs in their first season. The club won their first league title in 1960-61. The club was the dominant force in Cypriot football during the 1970s and 1980s, winning the league six consecutive seasons from 1974 to 1979. A record remains unbeaten. The club fielded Cypriot legends such as Sotiris Kaiafas, Spas Tsevizof, Christos Philippou (Skouloukos) and Gregory Savva. Sotiris Kaiafas would go on and win the Europe's highest achievement, the European Golden Boot after finishing as Europe's top domestic scorer in 1976 with 39 goals. – such feats led the Cypriot football association to name him as the greatest Cypriot player of the past 50 years in 2004 Although Omonia won the title again in 1992-93 the decade was dominated by Anorthosis Famagusta. Rainer Rauffmann, who arrived at the club in 1997, was the league's leading scorer for four years and also played for the Cyprus National Football Team after gaining Cypriot citizenship. The club won their nineteenth title in 2003, and they are currently one title behind rival team APOEL for the most championships. The club's badge is the shamrock. The shamrock supposedly represents the strength of the Omonoia founders, and the green colour represents hope. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hershie Posted February 18, 2010 Author Share Posted February 18, 2010 The story so far. Well I've only just decided to start this thread, but already we are in November 2010. Last season we won the league convincingly, as well as the Coca-Cola cup, thanks to a hard-fought 1-0 win over rivals Anorthosis Famagusta. As usual for me, I have been ambitious in my transfer targets and my spending, and riding on the back of significant sponsorship payments, have brought some quality players to the club. While I shall keep this more thoroughly updated from now on, I'll do my best to summarise the past 15 months or so. League Table 2009/10 season: Transfers: As the result of some smart deals (ie. bringing in frees and selling them on), we have increased our balance significantly, allowing me to be more extravagent with the wages and signing on fees I can offer. This has allowed me to attract such talent as Nelson Rivas and Cicero to the club, as well as being able to start to focus on youngsters and newgen players, opposed to the 'safe' free signings of the start. First season summary: Cups won: Marfin Laiki Championship, Coca-Cola Cup. Europe: Lost in EC 3rd qualifying round, 5-3 vs Roma Top scorer: Michalis Konstantinou - 31 goals, Maciej Zurawski - 25 goals Most assists: Konstantinos Makridis - 16 assists Highlight: 6-1 away win vs APOEL. Lowlight: Penalty miss away at Roma that would have given us 3-1 lead; 3-1 league defeat vs Ermis. Signing of the season: Paulinho (showing his quality at DC and LB despite his young age, and averaged over 7.3 in his 17 games), Donny Neyra (bargain and solid performer. Averaged 7.28 in 12 games) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hershie Posted February 18, 2010 Author Share Posted February 18, 2010 I did have a nicely typed summary of the season so far all ready, but sadly firefox decided to implode and that is lost. As I'm feeling a bit peeved now, I'll post my fixtures and summarise any where anyone is interested, as well as continue to keep updates in future at the detailed level I was preparing for the months July to October. As you can see, we qualified for the CL group stage (despite facing tough opposition) and then drew the impossible group of Sevilla, OM and Man City. I'm very proud of how the team has performed against such opposition, except for Makridis' insane FIRST MINUTE red card at home to Man City. Worth mentioning are a great 4-1 away win at B. Jerusalem, and a 7-0 away thrashing of newly-promoted Olympiakos, that left them running back towards B division with tears in their eyes and their pants around their ankles. I say away win, we actually ground-share. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hershie Posted February 18, 2010 Author Share Posted February 18, 2010 End of November/December: Omonoia 3-0 Alki (League) Dominant and easy win. Three first half goals from Zurawski, Makridis and Mariano Omonoia 1-4 OM (Champions League) Harsh scoreline but some shocking defending in an otherwise even game. We created more than them, but they took their chances. Mariano seems to be our only striker capable of consistantly getting goals in Europe. Omonoia 1-0 Anorthosis (League) Seems to be our favourite score vs them. Makridis with a good goal to win it. Ermis 0-3 Omonoia (League) Two in two minutes for Aloneftis and one for Konstantinou Sevilla 2-1 Omonoia (Champions League) Didn't deserve to lose. Took the lead early on through Efrem and conceded two late on through shocking goalkeeping by Moretto, who found himself on the transfer list shortly after. Omonoia 6-1 AEL (League) Great performance. 6 different scorers, including 17 year old Paraskeva. Own goal by Mahieu (2nd GK) ended our run of league clean sheets. Omonoia 7-0 Olympiakos (League) Another 7-0 vs them. 6 scorers again, and an own goal this time in our favour. Paraskeva scored again, as well as the departing Aloneftis, who agreed a £5mil move to Ajax. 60 goals in just 17 league games. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hershie Posted February 18, 2010 Author Share Posted February 18, 2010 This team is too good for this league - that's a good sign. There are other worlds to conquer. January saw fans favourite Aloneftis depart to Ajax, with the ambitious signing of the youngster Zezinho coming in to replace him. Donovan Ricketts joined from LA as another GK option, and Rivaldo (yes, that one) joined for.. not sure. I wanted to see if he could cut it I guess. Seems so far that he can't. The brilliantly named youngster Rob Pip joined too, having been inexplicably released by Club Brugge. We conceded just one goal in January, at the very start away at AEK. Other than that we went 6 games without conceding, knocking Chalkanoras out of the cup and beating Achna, Doxa, ENP and Nea in the league, with three 2-0 wins and a 4-0. I don't get teams sometimes. We beat ENP 2-0 at home in January in the league, then in February beat them 7-0 away in the cup. Zurawski is defying his years, scoring 17 goals so far despite nearing 35 years of age. Mariano is showing he that no defense has any idea how to cope with him, with the Brazilian (touted as the next Ronaldo) grabbing 23 in 30(1), as well as 13 assists. Considering he had a sluggish start, he's clearly absolutely on fire. Already I'm having concerns that the domestic dominance may get boring, but fear not. I find myself endlessly captivated and motivated by bringing youngsters through the system and watching their progress closely, and this will be no different. Should I ever give up on my European dream, I may well find myself with the challenge of trying to break my own dominance domestically! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hershie Posted February 19, 2010 Author Share Posted February 19, 2010 Αθλητικός Σύλλογος Ομόνοια Λευκωσίας/Athletic Club Omonoia Nicosia Season Summary 2010/11 Cups won: LTV Super Cup, Marfin Laiki Championship, Coca-Cola Cup. Europe: Came bottom of group in Champions League group stage. Top scorer: Mariano - 32 goals, Maciej Zurawski - 24 goals Most assists: Mariano - 18 assists, Cicero - 15 assists Highlight: Out-playing Sevilla and Marseille in European games. Taking the lead away at Man City. Lowlight: Failing to get a single point in the CL group stage. Signing of the season: Mariano - top scorer and assister says it all. Cicero - almost as good, contributing a handy 12 goals from midfield too. League Table Fixtures pt.2 (part 1 previously posted) Squad The aim for pre-season is now really to get the team ready to do better in Europe next season. It's all very well us doing well domestically, but without doing better on a bigger stage this could get frankly get boring. 3rd in the group stage is a realistic target.

Hershie Posted February 19, 2010 Author Share Posted February 19, 2010 Sunday 22nd May 2011 The board have announced a stadium expansion, and investment in both our youth and training. The expansion is set to add 6250 seats, at a startling cost of £7.5mil, and should bring our capacity up to around 29000. The GSP stadium is already the biggest on the island and by some distance, and is shared by Omonoia, APOEL and Olympiakos. The investment meanwhile is a more modest £775k, and will presumably make our facilities the best on the island. Our bank balance has now fallen considerably, and it looks like our position as a selling club is set to continue. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hershie Posted February 19, 2010 Author Share Posted February 19, 2010 A pre-season update: Another decent bunch of newgens. This guy looks to be the most promising of them, and I'm hoping he has the potential to improve considerably. ------------------------------------------- From last year, the outstanding prospect was clearly this guy: He had a solid season with the first-team squad, and is progressing nicely. Cyprus capped at 17 puts him nicely in line to be the natural successor to Konstantinou. ------------------------------------------- Of the other promising players I reckon this guy is next best: Yet to taste first team football as he spent a year in the U18s while being trained as a LB (having been only a natural WBL) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dees-Blake Posted February 19, 2010 Share Posted February 19, 2010 Good luck in Cyprus! In my Northern Irish save, in my first ever Champions League campaign with a team I had taken to the top level, we played Omonoia in the first Qualifying Round. Of course, they didn't have any of their players - just grey people, but we managed to record a fluky victory against the odds - I wonder how that would've been if they had their actual squad. Keep up the updates mate, this has been presented nicely and it's looking good. Interested to see how you go in your career. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hershie Posted February 19, 2010 Author Share Posted February 19, 2010 Been spending this summer in the knowledge that I now need the money that the CL group stage has to offer. Team now looks a far cry from the team I took over just 2 years ago. Only Makridis remains a first-teamer, and only a few others remain in the squad. Still, the youth is compensating, and hopefully other teams will have similarly good newgens that I can perhaps pick up a few years down the line so as to keep a decent number of home grown players.

Hershie Posted February 21, 2010 Author Share Posted February 21, 2010 In hindsight, I'm very proud of the team, although still very unhappy at the manner of our exit. We won the league and cup again, and are close to entering the new pre-season. A number of players have departed in recent months in an attempt to clear any squad unhappiness and offload those not in or around the first-team, with little hope of ever being. Amongst those to leave were Hugo Viana, Felipe Menezes, Christou Paraskevas, Carlos Eduardo, Jan Rajnoch and Matthew Briggs. The board have decided to again improve our facilities, but also (bizarrely) install undersoil heating, taking a huge chunk out of our finances.

Hershie Posted February 22, 2010 Author Share Posted February 22, 2010 Funnily enough I was just about to post screenshots of a number of newgens, that I've previously posted in the all-nighter thread in GD. Mariano is in there. Luckily our reputation (and thus his) is sufficiently low that he seems to only be getting attention from back in Brazil, although it seems Atalanta are taking an interest. He's got an incredible 15 goals in 10 games so far this season, 11 of which have been in the CL! Sadly the rest of the team haven't been to good, and we threw away a 3-1 lead in our first group game to lose 5-3 (deservedly so). We also faced Anderlecht (yet again) and let a 4-1 lead slip thanks to some utterly dreadful defending, but thankfully we won the away leg. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

fatski Posted February 22, 2010 Share Posted February 22, 2010 I don't have any problem with that particularly, if it improves your enjoyment of a game then who cares? Why are there so many amazing Cypriot regens? Have they all got good youth facilities? And what did you do to creat this db? Sorry for all the questions... Actually dont worry, I decided not to be lazy and I found it in Editor's Hideaway! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hershie Posted February 22, 2010 Author Share Posted February 22, 2010 The thread regarding the DB/xml is here. http://community.sigames.com/showthread.php?t=159823 As for Cypriot regens, I guess it'll have something to do with it being the only active league, and the fact that such is the number of regens created there'll be the occasional gem, and obviously some times more than at others. I did tweak the youth facilities slightly, mostly for the top clubs, so the best clubs (APOEL, Anorthosis, Omonoia) have facilities of around the 12-14 standard, while the rest have anywhere from 1 to 12, with most top flight clubs being between 6 and 12 for facilities. ENP also have a good academy, as reflected in the number of top Cypriot players to start their careers there. The pretty good standard initially is pretty similar to the original DB with only a few minor tweaks (nothing I'd consider unrealistic), and to me reflects the fact that a lot of time and money has gone into improving youth football in Cyprus in recent years, with a number of young players impressing either against or while on trial at top European clubs. The Cypriot U19 and U21 teams are both improving considerably, and I believe both have a number of players playing in the UK. It's only a matter of time until the national team qualify for a tournament imo, as they've shown they can produce some great performances, but lack consistancy. The number of young players currently breaking into the squad is a promising sign. I can also only assume too that due to the league being active, facilities are being improved as teams get the money to do so, so I'd imagine the top clubs are more around the 16/17 mark now, that would give the potential for the creation of excellent regens.

Hershie Posted February 23, 2010 Author Share Posted February 23, 2010 Some bad news however: Mariano and Makridis, two of my top players, are not getting along. I may let Makridis leave as we have a number of promising AMR options to replace him long term, but I won't let him go unless it's for a good fee. With Karypidis likely to leave due to being severly restricted in first-team opportunities, we will most likely be left with an extremely young squad. Already our average age is just 20, and after Makridis (31) and Karypidis (30), the next oldest player in the squad is Botia, who is just 24. You may have noticed I'm a fan of newgens and have a lot of faith in (as well as enjoy developing) young players. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
