Jambo98 Posted May 11, 2012 Share Posted May 11, 2012 About to start season 6 and i am down to 3 players over the age of 20 in my entire squad!

Braumiller Posted May 11, 2012 Share Posted May 11, 2012 Weymouth FC Summary - Season 13 (2024-25) First season in the Premier League and the only goal of the year was survival! The season started off as expected and points were very hard to come by and at the halfway point of the season I had played 19 games and gained 18 points. This was just about right on target as I wanted the magical 40 points. As the new year kicked in and we began our reverse fixtures it became clear that the battling bunch of young men I began the year with had grown into a solid, tough unit and results greatly improved. 31 points came from the 2nd half fixtures which meant safety was achieved with 5 games to go and we could breath. Especially my new youth players who began to get appearances to help kick start their careers. When all is said and done, a 10th place finish was above my wildest dreams and we essentially finished 2nd in the Premier League B. Even if I had gained 31 pts in both halves of the season, I would only have jumped 1 place! The Premier League A is going to be a tough party to gatecrash. Final League Table Quarter Finals of both cups was pleasing and I believe helped in developing both the players and the squad morale. Both QF appearances are the furthest in each competition to date for us. Key moments of the season; Rob Neal offered back to me - sold him for 975k several years ago Sam Bryant offered back to me - damn your rules ri916 for not letting me bring back the legend John Bridge (YP 11a) gains a fantastic description! New League Appearances Record 3 Called Up To England Squad First Full England Cap for Weymouth Player 2nd Place In Premier League Manager of the Year Award For a combined 9.5m the board agree to use the crazy Premier League TV revenue to expand both the training and youth facilities! They also agree to a rare youth recruitment upgrade (now listed as 'average'). I had 2 separate requests for a stadium expansion turned down, which made this news item at the end of the year even more surprising. This will put our capacity up to just short of 24k. 2025 Facilities - December 2025 is a huge month for us with completions due to training facility, youth facility and stadium expansion! Youth Intake Chris Hall (YP 13a) || Profile || Report || has bags of potential according to my coaching staff, but looks a little raw right now. I was able to give him some games at the end of the year and he played better than I thought he would. Will be giving him as much time as I can next season as long as it doesn't affect survival fight. Transfers! Targets for Season 14; * Replicate season 13. Safety with an eye on mid table. Good cup runs to compliment the season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Braumiller Posted May 11, 2012 Share Posted May 11, 2012 And if I was under any illusions season 2 in the Premier League would be any easier, then the fixture list decided to make sure I start off near the bottom. Tin foil hat time for my supporters, there is a conspiracy against Weymouth!! First 5 league games are against decent teams..... All finished within the top 7 last year. There will be a league cup game scheduled in there somewhere as well, presuming it will be a Prem team away..... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

marty78 Posted May 11, 2012 Share Posted May 11, 2012 KINGSTONIAN SEASON ONE UPDATE - 2012/13 Manager - Martyn James (Runner-up Manager of the Season) Season objective - Avoid relegation (achieved) Achievements: BSB South - 14th FA Cup -1st round FA Trophy - 3rd qualifying round I started the season with some money making friendlies in the hope of getting some season one upgrades but my board refused all requests throughout the season. I got a couple of decents results early on but my squad was tiny and very quickly I found myself going into matches with just one or two substitutes and those players available were often tired. Despite a few dodgy runs of form, morale remained high and that was key to survival. 14th in the league probably flattered us a bit with a late run of results boosting my position. Here are my end of season fixtures. This is a difficult challenge and with no transfers I think promotion will be a five year plan. As you will see no TRANSFERS were made and the only staff I added was a scout for next opposition assignment. Finally my youth intake arrived and I had enough players for a football club. The best of these is Kelvin Gough (YP1) who has already made an impact in the first team due to a lack of strikers. He looks promising and his first goal was a 25 yard beauty. He is currently being tutored by Traynor who was last seasons top scorer so fingers crossed. EDIT - Gough has increased determination from 8 to 13 whilst being tutored. _____________________________________ Season 2 My expectations - Better last seasons 14th place and get some sort of facility upgrade. Media prediction - 17th Board expectation - Consolidate Here is my first team squad for the new season. I am going to try and better 14th but I think that may be tough. EDIT - August 1st board increase junior coaching. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

pjohnson87 Posted May 12, 2012 Share Posted May 12, 2012 Season 2012-2013 Summary Media Prediction 8th Final Position 14th League Table We got off to a flier winning 7 out of the first 10 league games! But after a while the lack of depth started to catch up and a few injuries, and a few bad results and the team starts to meltdown without a win in the next 10 games. March came and I was hoping the youth intake would be a shot in the arm and we could turn things around and get back on track for the final run in of the season, but I was unable to stop the rot and ended up finishing a rather disappointing 14th. During the season i managed to funnel some more finances towards junior coaching, but was unable to convince the board to upgrade the facilities. Youth Intake Stelios Giannitopoulos YP1 Already one of the best players at the club, and in such a much needed area made this him a very welcome addition. He ended up playing 7 games scoring once, and i have very high hopes for him next season.

Braumiller Posted May 12, 2012 Share Posted May 12, 2012 Congrats toon, fantastic job! La Furia Roja, I did back in my earlier seasons.

La Furia Roja Posted May 12, 2012 Share Posted May 12, 2012 problem is that most are young kids that have come through, like 18yo, really want to try and keep them if I can.

Facilities- We managed to improve junior coaching again and it’s now at adequate. League Table- A much Improved season for us going up 4 places to 12th from last year’s 16th place finish.

Luke Phillips YP02- Not the greatest prospect but I had to give it to someone Transfers- I’m clean! YP Watch Ollie Clunan YP01- He has played every game this season and improved well.
