HesBiggerThanMeAndYou Posted November 7, 2014 Share Posted November 7, 2014 Ok so Ive had 1 player just go to Tamworth over my Rushall side... I'm in the Conference Premier and thay are in VCN... I offered £650/week and he joined them for £325/week. I also offered £5k signing on fee(stupidly huge amount) Also, when trying to loan players, the club always tells me they want their player to play with a higher calibre of player... A week later he goes to a lower club in the same league, or worse in a lower league. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
heyhowie Posted November 7, 2014 Share Posted November 7, 2014 This has always been an issue with LLM/ Dafuges challenge hasn't it? The clubs reputation take a while to catch up. I do think it's an issue though. Why would a player choose a lower league and half pay? makes no sense to me. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

dan_simmonds Posted November 7, 2014 Share Posted November 7, 2014 Kingstonian FC End of Season 1 - 2015/16 Vanarama South We stormed into the early part of the season and went all the way until October before we suffered our first defeat. Some strong performances at crucial times helped us keep a cushion that we never relinquished, the closest that Sutton got to us was within two points before we ended up winning the title by 5 points! Great season for us, and hopefully we can capitalise on the momentum we've got to keep us clear of the relegation zone when we head into the Conference. FA Cup We cruised through the qualifying rounds with 3 comfortable victories over smaller opposition before eventually falling to a virtuoso performance from Hartlepool's Williams. Gate money was welcome, but it would've been nice to have made a better fist of it. FA Trophy We were drawn against similar opposition in the Trophy, and whilst I wasn't bothered about going out of the cup, I was certainly disappointed with the manner of our performance. It will be nice to go a bit further next season, but I'll happily trade going out in the first round for survival. Transfers 4 of the 6 I brought in played a key part in the promotion push, whilst the other two were squad members. I cut some deadwood at the beginning of the season, but ultimately didn't feel the need to tinker with my squad in January. More reinforcements will need to be signed this summer though, as well as the loss of fringe players not worth the budget that I'm spending on them. First Team Key Players 1. Dan Walker - ST - Unbelievable. At the start of the season it looked like he was going to be my fourth choice striker, but he starting scoring and made the other strikers look poor in comparison. Tying him down to a new contract was a must, and he'll spearhead our campaign next season. 2. Richard Bryan - DR - Solid, consistent and occasionally weighed in with an outstanding free kick or an assist. 3. Sam Page - DC - The rock at the heart of my defence. Played brilliantly all year and barely put a foot wrong. Youth Team Useless facilities, and useless players. Hopefully I can generate some money and persuade the board to upgrade the facilities. Best Three 'Yoofs' 1. Tom Palmer - MC - Best of a bad bunch. If we go up the leagues any higher, his career with us will be over before it has begun. 2. George Harris - DC - Great in the air and a great teammate. He hasn't got much else going for him. 3. Bryan Yarde - MC - He's quick for this level. Youth Intake Rubbish. Facilities No updates to the facilities, as we have no money. Hoping some extra money in the coffers from a higher league and TV revenue standpoint will help me persuade the board to upgrade where necessary. Finances We lost 10k which wasn't too bad. An extra round in one of the cups and we break even. We need to make sure that we keep costs down as possible to ensure that we're in the black going forward.

Always love finding those solid players who are better than their stats suggest. Did you have a regular formation you used? He ended up with 25, of which 23 were in the league and he certainly surpassed my expectations. Finishing stat wasn't the best, but I think his determination and pace help make up for it. And yes, I used a 4-3-3 DM wide (aside from a small tinkering with 4-4-2). I'm pretty sure there's a tactics screen in my career thread that outlines the various player roles and the shape, but I couldn't tell you what the exact team instructions are off the top of my head.

sishuttleworth Posted November 7, 2014 Share Posted November 7, 2014 Yeah, the problem is that reputation isn't a great way of assessing who's likely to be promoted. For example, both Curzon Ashton and Ramsbottom were promoted this season (in real life), and therefore have low reputations. However, it was widely predicted that they'd do well, and this is the case so far, with Rammy 3rd and us (Curzon) 4th after 18 matches. In the database for each team is a "predicted group finish" field (or something like that), which essentially asks the researcher to rate whether they're likely to finish in the top, 2nd, 3rd or bottom quarter of their division. That might be a better way to determine who gets promoted. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
dan_simmonds Posted November 7, 2014 Share Posted November 7, 2014 Start of season two - 2016/17 First Team Squad We've strengthed where we needed to, and we've now got depth in every position. I'm confident of a midtable finish to be honest, and hopefully as the season goes on we'll be able to increase our reputation and look to get some prized free agents next summer. Transfers We've brought in some strength in depth at key positions and signed some players that will come into the first team. I have high hopes for Ammann who has some U19's caps for the Swiss, with Lock, Sinclair, Murphy and Toomey all looking to make a first team impact. Hill and Warren are mainly backups, whilst outgoing were all deadwood and I had no intention of keeping any of them. Key Players 1. Dan Walker - ST - Last season's goal machine, and I'll need him firing to get us results. Can we step it up to the conference level? 2. Sam Page - DC - Defacto captain as Brown is no longer first choice, he is the rock our defence is built on. We'll need him on top form. 3. Arie Ammann - GK - Rarely do I pick a goalkeeper as one of my key players, but this guy has got the quality to really keep us in games. If he keeps clean sheets, we'll pick up points. This season's objectives Vanarama Conference - Fight against relegation - I'd rather under promise and over deliver, I've got the confidence that we'll finish midtable. FA Cup - 4th Qualifying Round - A cup run would be nice for me and the finances, but I'll take 1st round away against a large 'sleeping giant' FA Trophy - 1st Round - Extra cup games will be good for finances, but for me it'll be about squad rotations. Generate enough profit to improve facilities - This is one for me. The only way to do this is increase the profile of the club and get more through the gate. A big cup game would be greatly received.

dafuge Posted November 7, 2014 Author Share Posted November 7, 2014 Canvey Island - Vanarama Conference Premier - 2019/20 Despite a mid table finish, last season we had a squad capable of much more. This season we were looking to make it into the playoffs. League Table - it was a comfortable win as we pretty much led from start to finish. FA Trophy - after two consecutive losses in the final, we finally got our Wembley win. FA Cup - we had a tough draw, with a big League 1 side at home. Transfers - barely anything was needed to improve the squad after last season. Squad - a rebuild will be needed for the Football League, but we have a few useful players who will stay on. Finances - a great year for the finances. Key Player Profiles: Chris Long - a stunning goal tally. Fejiri Okenabirhie - a great supporting striker. George Moncur - found himself out on the wing, but had a great season. Miro Muheim - another great season. Jake Clarke-Salter - a solid defender with a shocking disciplinary record.

DizzyIzzyB13 Posted November 7, 2014 Share Posted November 7, 2014 2016/2017 1st in Vanarama Conference (pred: 24th) | Transfers | Finances | Graph | Player Stats (1, 2) The League We got off to an uneven start, thanks in part to a lack of signings, but in late August/September, we added a few players and started to creep up the table, establishing ourserlves as a play-off contender. We were second in the table on a number of occasions, bnut never really threatening to take the top spot. Until, that is, the FA Trophy Final. Eastleigh were top of the table at that point, and we were 4th, 6 points behind. Our 2-0 victory set us on a great run of form, winning four of our last five. Going into the final game, we trailed by two points and lay in second spot. A 3-1 win over Aldershot, coupled with Eastleigh losing to Accrington by the same scoreline and, well... my reaction in the Dafuge Challenge chat says it all: Silent Sonata: YES Silent Sonata: YES Silent Sonata: YES Silent Sonata: SUCK IT EASTLEIGH Silent Sonata: SUCK IT Silent Sonata: GET Silent Sonata: DUNKED Silent Sonata: SCRUBS Silent Sonata: FIRST I TAKE YOUR FA TROPHY NOW I TAKE YOUR TITLE ...I am not a gracious winner, but I am a winner. The Cups (FA Cup | FA Trophy) Our FA Cup ended in the second round again, also against League Two opposition. We did ourselves proud in defeat, going 4-1 down inside 36 minutes, fighting back to 4-3 and then being caught on the counter attack going for a desperate equalizer in the last minute to lose 5-3. The FA Trophy was a different matter. Our 2-0 victory over Eastleigh in front of 19,362 at Wembley may have been the clincher and the most important result of our season, but I was most proud of our 4-3 victory over Wrexham in the second leg of the semi final. The first leg was a 1-1 draw, and whilst we led 2-0 at the half, we drew 2-2 to reach extra time isnce there ar eno away goals in the FA Trophy. I was relieved we reached extra time, frankly, we'd probably have lost if there were five more minutes to play. In extra time, we fell behind in the 98th minute, something that would be devastating to many teams after blowing a 2-0 lead. But we stromed back, equalizing immediately and then taking the lead right after the restart. We defended for our lives, until thte game was clinched in the 119th minute, when De'Jaune Taylor-Crossdale tried to get on the end of a through ball, surely for a certain goal that would send us to penalties... and was denied by a truly heroic, selfless professional foul by Will Antwi. Antwi got his marching orders, and from the resulting freekick, Taylor-Crossdale put the ball in the back of the net, only for it to be ruled out for offside. The Players Highest Average Rating (Min. 10 starts): Decarrey Sherrif, 7.44 Top Scorer: Ben May and Max Noble, 23 Most Assists: Glen Bell, Worst Discipline: Emmanuel Adeyeye, 6 yellow cards Ever-Present: Mike Jones The Finances There was a board takeover mid-season, which lead to investment of £40k, coupled with a reasonable FA Cup run and our FA Trophy win, plus successful promotion to the football league means we're in a pretty strong position overall. The Future Hopefully, we survive next year. Improvements to our youth facilities have been approved as the first step to making us a sustainable club, while the stadium is being converted to an all-steater. I'm looking forward to life as a professional club. [b][u][color="black"]CLUB HISTORY[/color][/u][/b] [b]SEASON LEAGUE POS.

Crispypaul Posted November 8, 2014 Share Posted November 8, 2014 Dulwich Hamlet 2015/16 Season Vanarama Conference South Season Review League: 6th A bit disappointing as we were in the play offs with two games to spare, but then garnered a single point so just dropped out. A very good start though and encouraging for the next season. FA Cup: 1st Round A great run ultimately ended, and just about, by Stevenage. FA Trophy: Semi Finals Another good run, ended when we met a considerably better Dagenham & Redbridge Key players: Alex Addai: our top scorer by some distance Marcel Henry-Francis: surprised to see so many from the target man, a number of injuries ending his season somewhat. Rhys Clark: the young striker broke through in the season, however has refused a new contract. I'm hoping he will reconsider. Daryn Hennessy: excellent performances from the attacking midfielder Terrell Forbes: the veteran centre back was solid in central defence Gareth Gwillim: a great season from the left back, chipping in with the occasional free kick Finances: our cup runs and general control of salary keep these at a decent level.

deadfncat Posted November 8, 2014 Share Posted November 8, 2014 Stourbridge - Vanarama Conference North - 2018/19 - First Finally! We ended up winning even after a bit of a dip at the end of the season. Even when winning games I never felt like we were dominant enough. Teams could easily score on us whenever they wanted. Anyway, Finally out of the bottom and into the league I hate the most. Need to power on to League football ASAP. League Table Games Finances - Lost a bit of cash this season but still in the black for now. FA Cup - We played pretty well, but Exeter scored two injury time goals on us and sunk our season FA Trophy - Disappointing loss in the semi final Squad - I signed way too many players this season looks for quality. Our defence was pretty bad, but we scored enough goals to keep us going Key Player Profiles James Lemon - Quality young back with an injury hampered season Player of the Season Iain Riley - Fantastic player I picked up midseason. Will do well next season. He won player of the season as well.

jsar Posted November 8, 2014 Share Posted November 8, 2014 Just signed John Scarborugh as a coach! So excited, he was my captain and main man for many a season in the last few versions of FM Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thebaker Posted November 8, 2014 Share Posted November 8, 2014 Well done there on promotion Deadfncat, can't believe you won the league on 76 points though, that seems quite a low total. I managed 74 in my last season to sneak 5th, 3 teams had 80+ points Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hypanimz Posted November 8, 2014 Share Posted November 8, 2014 The board is putting pressure on me at Maidstone after a winless run of 6 games and falling outside the playoffs. The end could be near unless I turn this around. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
deadfncat Posted November 8, 2014 Share Posted November 8, 2014 Well done there on promotion Deadfncat, can't believe you won the league on 76 points though, that seems quite a low total. I managed 74 in my last season to sneak 5th, 3 teams had 80+ points haha it was an insanely close season. The congestion at the top was very close and the month before, the lead changed hands many many times. I was lucky that North Ferriby and Barrow both also lost on the last day, otherwise I would have had to battle it out in the playoffs yet again Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hypanimz Posted November 8, 2014 Share Posted November 8, 2014 Maidstone United - Vanarama South - 2016/17 We started the season nicely and were sat in the playoffs only a few points off the top spot for the whole first half of the season. Unfortunately it all went wrong in January and we slid down the table into 10th and according to the press I was one bad result away from the sack. Thankfully we picked up and won that match and then won 12 out of the final 15 league games drawing the other 3 to jump back up the league table and finish in 2nd place. We continued the run by beating Boreham Wood 5-4 in the semi finals and then we faced Whitehawk who we had beaten only 3 weeks earlier in the playoff final. We didnt show up again in this match for the second season running and lost 1-0. So thats back to back playoff final defeats. I can take a few positives from the season and hopefully we can go 1 better next season. League Table Past Positions Cups -Made the FA Trophy 3rd round this season before getting destroyed. FA Cup was a 2nd qual round exit again. Squad - Only a few new faces needed in the summer to hopefully get us promoted next season. Finances - £442k in the bank. Mainly due to a board takeover in the last few days pumping in lots of money. Key Player Profiles: Danny Mills - Another great season. 25 goals in 46 starts. Mainly from the wing as he was moved there to accomodate a new striker. Liam Hearn - The new striker. Age is against him but 28 goals in 35 starts is a great return. Adam Mekki - Star player again this season. Superb form with 20 goals and 34 assists from the wing. Need him to keep this up next season. Next Season I want promotion next season. I dont mind if it playoffs again but I would rather just skip the hassle of the playoffs and win the league.

omgwtfbbq Posted November 9, 2014 Share Posted November 9, 2014 Wow, this is tough this year. Trying to keep players fit enough to play each game :\ 3 games in, 1 point. Going to be a long season! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

pickemgenius Posted November 9, 2014 Share Posted November 9, 2014 Vanarama Conference-3rd-Playoff Winners. 2015/16 So the semi final was vs Forest Green, and that came down to ET in the second game. I scored in the 111th minute and TURTLED AS BEST AS ONE CAN TURTLE with a not very good GK. Finals vs Torquay which I probably got slightly outplayed, but finished twice to win 2-0. Luckily I have two rock solid CD's who both sport 10+ marking/defending/pace/strength/concentration/positioning/heading, and are 20 or younger(Aaron Hayden-Wolves/Jimmy Dunne-Man U) Really gonna miss This guy my next few seasons as he doesn't want to sign another contract with me(*yet*). He was just some random 16 year old I signed the first year, now he wants to go to bigger and better things... Like sitting in a free agent pool forever and ever(just a guess). gonna be hitting up L2 soon. Need to get a ton of players on my 10.5k/wk wage budget this coming season. I anticipate I'll get off to a slower start than I like then pick it up and turn on the after burners when players will ACTUALLY SIGN FOR ME(instead of refusing to sign for me, signing for a lower or non conference team and taking much less than i could have offered. Still hate that this is a thing....) Pretty sad to find out Stamford was 1500 rep, usually like sub 1400, but after finding out the reps the lowest ive found after a few hours of simming is Stourbridge at 1450. Oh well. Finding the game a lot better than it was first released(obviously), so I guess I'll at least get these guys to PREM before starting another save. Not gonna update here all that much(still gonna read a lot of the stories to check out good players) mostly just a farewell to Ritchie Hodgkinson who might be my favorite signing in an early years Dafuge challenge I've ever had. He has been indefinitely placed on my shortlist and I can't wait to rage when he ends up playing for some random Vanarama Conference team for like $300 next season!

Jebuz Posted November 9, 2014 Share Posted November 9, 2014 I have started with FC United, but I am going to start over - among other bugs I also had the bug with getting a National B licens even though I started the game as none and that a lot only makes it fair that I should start over.
