Popular Post JLAB Posted January 21, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted January 21, 2022 Beira-Mar – Season 12 – 2033/34 Season Preview If there was one thing that I was terrified about going up to the Liga Portugal Bwin, it was what our odds were going to be in the top flight of Portugal. It started at 1000-1, which for me was a promising sign since I could work with that. Then it dropped down to 2000-1 and I honestly looked at these odds and realised that we were probably going to be going down despite our best attempts to stay up this season. Our squad was that poor. Then I got this message from the president, and I decided, you know what? If we're going to go down, I'm going to make sure that our backroom staff is going to be upgraded to be the best it can be. We're going to be making money, why not use it? So I signed Frank Lampard as a coach, hoping that his model citizen personality will help the players develop better personalities going forward. Consider this to be an experiment to see how this goes moving forward. In more good news, we've managed to convince the president to improve our junior coaching and youth recruitment. If we are only going to be at the top level for one season, I will 100% make sure that we will get as many things sorted as possible. We also have the 5th biggest stadium in the division and the 6th biggest stadium in the entire country, so I'm also hopeful that our gate receipts will provide us with some good revenue moving forward. So we have a lot of things going against us, but we also have a lot of things going for us. In my latest video we played our first game of the season and we also looked at the squad and compared it to the standards of the Liga Portugal Bwin.

Popular Post libbyshuss Posted January 21, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted January 21, 2022 (edited) Club Social y Deportivo Muñiz Argentina Primera C (Tier 4) 2023/24 (season 2) Season Summary A season of ups and downs. We started with 6 wins from the first 7 to go top and then ony on once in the next 14 games. After the winter break we recovered a bit and put tpgether a few good results, although we tended to draw rather than win, but with two games to go we were 6th. The best thing about Argentina tier 4 is the top club gets promoted and the next 8 all qualify for a promotion play-off so we were looking good. So obviously we lose our last two games, with the team who beat us on the last day of the season leapfrogging us and pushing us out the playoffs down to 10th on goal difference. Bah. Cup - Through to the first round proper but a tough draw saw us go straight out Players Pretty much the same team that got us promoted. They struggled at times but in general showed they're good enough to stay up. The squad was a lost smaller this season as well which didn't help at times, being there are more games in C. Youth I'm slowly replacing those expensive squad players with cheap youth. None have mad the break through to the first team yet but there's definitely a couple of definitely maybes for next season. This years preview looked pretty good Always happy to see a 5 star preview! of course, that doesn't men the actual intake will be 5 star, and it wasn't. down to 4 star at intake! And not a huge amount of deth either, But those two elite prospects look good. I like the personalities and i like the determination. The first team have such an awful collective determination rating its embarrassing. I've been fining the arse of them as well but to no avail. I had plety of opportunities this season as well. It saves a bit of money as well. Finances and Upgrades So this is where it gets messy. I've managd to halve our weekly wage bill but we're still losing money hand over fist. The debt is now standing at 1.2m. So what do the board do? Hopefully it pays off in the long run. We're currently sharing a stadium so it will be nice to have our own one. A massive 1690 capacity as well!!! Career So, it's gonna be a slog here in Argentina. THe main issue is still the debt. I need to clear that before i can think of upgrades but there's no signs of it going any time soon yet. Kits I decided being in South America that Jurassic Park would be good sponsors. It looks pretty good! Edited January 21, 2022 by libbyshuss 10 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post XaW Posted January 21, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted January 21, 2022 XaW - Brickfield Rangers - Season 2030/31 - JD Cymru Premier Squad | Transfers | Finances This was quite the strange season for us. We started horribly, and at a time it looked like we were going down. After 10 games we were in 10th place with only a single win to our name. At that point I changed tactics...again, and it seemed to work. We slowly rose up the table, and just about sneaked our way into the Championship group again. This time we held our own much better towards the big teams, and even managed to catch Caernarfon to finish in a record high 5th place. We also managed to beat Caernarfom and then Gap Connah's Quay in the European playoffs to make sure we head into Europe next season. Really happy with this change up, and it bodes well for next season. We had fewer stand out players this season, but Mark York 23a was a rare light for us, once again. Welsh League Cup: We lost to Ruthin in the 2nd round.Welsh Cup: We beat Llanrhaeadr, Holywell, Colwyn Bay, and Bangor City before we lost to TNS in the final. Close, but no cigar. Youth intake: A very good intake again, so the improvements are really giving back. Kieran Berry 31d is a very nice addition, since we were a bit thin at central midfield. Ilias Mavridis 31e is a very nice striker. Quick and good finishing should let him score loads for us. Mitch Palmer 31g looks like a very good defender. Pace is not common for us, so a quick winger is a very nice addition. Trophy cabinet JD Cymru North - 1 (2025/26) 16 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the goal difference demonstrates we were unlucky this season. I cannot put it down to anything in particular, we have been lucky in holding onto the best players in the squad so far. Just one of those seasons I suppose. Seeing TNS as strong as ever doesn't make me any more enthusiastic. I will admit, I considered stopping this season and finding a new challenge, but I am not quite ready to give up on the dream Euro Cup II I was really pleased with how we dispatched Partick Thistle, I have the Scottish leagues loaded so, they were fairly strong. Anderlecht were of course much too strong for us. But over the two legs, we created enough chances that the score line flatters them. Youth Intake A really poor intake and the first one in years that gave me nobody that headed straight into the 1st team. This was a big part of the doom and gloom about continuing. We are desperate for some centre backs. Mike Czerniak (34a) Graham Brewerton (34b) Club Overview The money from last seasons appearance in the Euro II group stages got us another boost to our youth facilities and our junior coaching. 9 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

LazyBandit Posted January 22, 2022 Share Posted January 22, 2022 My time in Switzerland has come to an end as the board decided they were tired of barely finishing above the relegation zone and sacked me. I had high hopes for that save, but oh well, time to go again. VFR Wormatia Worms Season 1 (2022/23) My second go at it brings me to Southwest Germany and to VFR Wormatia Worms. Founded in 1908, the club has only been as high as the 2. Bundesliga, most recently in 1981. We start in the German Regional Division Southwest, the fourth tier of German football. Starting Squad Not a bad starting squad, albeit a bit thin in some areas. A few of our players are apparently good enough for the 3rd division, so we we'll have to lean on them. I fell this is a good point to build from and I think we can have a pretty decent season. Final League Table This was an incredible year for us. Originally predicted to finish 13th, 5th is way higher than I thought was possible. We found ourselves playing a positive, attacking tactic and scored goals for fun at some points. However Elversberg were far superior to any other team in the division. With them promoted and only a 5 point difference between 2-5, I think we can really challenge for the title next year. Intake Preview For our first intake I'd say this is pretty good. A pretty good distribution of positions is nice. Youth Intake I wasn't expecting to get players who could immediately compete for starting spots, but this isn't a bad first intake. Some decent potential players and good personalities are nice to see. A good distribution of nations is always welcome too. Not all players from this intake were signed. Hüseyin Yılmaz - Jake Walton - Manuel Almsick - Pauli Kivimäki We added 8 countries in this years' intake. Countries: 8/227 (3.52%) - Intake Map Conclusion I feel this was a very good start to my save with Die Bachbutzer. Unfortunately I wasn't able to convince the board of any upgrades. We started the season at almost $1m in the bank, but now find ourselves almost $400k in the red. Therefore getting promoted as fast as we can is important, and I feel we have a real good shot at it next season. 7 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

JLAB Posted January 22, 2022 Share Posted January 22, 2022 Beira-Mar – Season 12 – 2033/34 Our First Top-Flight Games The season we were told to expect was nothing but doom and gloom, so when we only got knocked out of the Allianz Cup by Tondela at home after conceding a late equaliser, and then managed to steal a point away from home at a tycoon-backed Tondela when we got battered, I knew that we could be doing really well. But our biggest result so far was getting a last-gasp winner at him to Vizela, who have in past 13 seasons been fighting for Europe. Things could not have gone any better for us If you had told me that after 2 matches I would be 4 points clear of the relegation zone already, I would have taken that with glee. It gives me hope that we can actually be competitive in the top-flight against some of the not so strong teams. We just need to make sure that against the weaker teams we pick up points, and hope that against the likes of Sporting CP, Porto, Benfica and league champions Braga we can steal some points. If you want to see how we managed to have such a great start to the league season, my latest video shows you our performances.

I'll take 2nd any day here in Wales, and it means we go into Europe again next season. That seems the to be the only way to make money here, and I need to save up some to go professional. I think we need to do so to challenge TNS. TNS reached the Europa Conference group stage this season, so they will have loads of cash already. Quite a few players stood out this season, but the most impressive one is Ilias Mavridis 31e. I took a chance on him as our main striker and he really delivered. Mark York 23a got pulled back into a more supportive position, but still did well for us. Also, Jay Beck 30k became our starting goalkeeper this season and had a good season where he added 12 goals in addition to some good goalkeeping. Welsh League Cup: We beat Llandudno Junction before we lost to Gap Connah's Quay in the 3rd round.Welsh Cup: We beat Colwyn Bay, Cardiff Dracs, and Caernarfon before we lost to TNS in the semi final. Europa Conference League: We beat Sloboda Tuzla of Bosnia Herzegovina and Desna Chernihiv of Ukraine before we lost to Mladá Boleslav of Czechia in the 3rd qualifying round.

Popular Post libbyshuss Posted January 22, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted January 22, 2022 (edited) Club Social y Deportivo Muñiz Argentina Primera C (Tier 4) 2024/25 (season 3) Season Summary A pretty devastating season to be honest! League - We were immense for the most part. We started like a rocket, winning game after game. 11 wins and 2 draws in our first 13. Then we drew a couple and started winning again. We didn't lose until our 22nd league game of the season! By the time we lost again to Central Cordoba there were only 7 games of the season left to play and the table looked like this: I'll be honest, at this stage I thought the title was ours. We'd only lost 2 in 29, were playing well and not looking at all in danger. But injuries, tiredness, smug complacency all caught up with us and in those final 7 matches we only won once leaving the final table looking like this:- 4th! after going 21 games unbeaten! I was gutted. Particularly as those 3 who overtook us practically won all their last 8 or 9 games. and that when I checked the title winning side last season got 61 points. and the ones before that got 63. I was 4th with 70!! I'm not sure what we could have done though. we were really struggling to put out a fit side in those final few games So, into the play-offs! bizarrely we were awful in the home legs of both the quarter and the semi, losing them both, only to stage unlikely comebacks in the away legs. The less said about the play-off final the better. Cup - Now this was fun! all the way to the 4th round where we drew..... We were the home side but the match was played at a neutral venue. The attendance was ridiculous but doesn't count as a home gate - i love the number of away fans to home fans though! Players Our first youth pull player is in the first team! And then the second! they did good, and they help with determination and work rate too. which is nice. Youth Another good preview and mediocre intake. I really need a HOYD who can actually gauge player potential properly. My current one has a rating of 3 for judging player potential! Again the 5 take preview became 4 star on intake. Which is ok I guess, it could have been a lot worse. Two elite talents aren't to be sniffed at I guess and they both got decent determination/personalities too. Shame I don't play with a DM but Pizzicanella looks easy to get to natura at MC Finances and Upgrades The real success of the season. The cup run and decent league finish gave us some extra dosh (although the Boca game wasn't quite as lucrative as I'd hoped it stil gave us 150k or so) and the board chipped in £375k to help with costs We also sold a player. A bit sad as he'd just broke into the first team but we need the cash! The real thing though is that 50% add on. With any luck that'll pay off down the line sometime.... So in the end we went from 1.2m in the red to only 200k in the red. Another season like that and I might get an upgrade or two through!

I cannot explain the dopamine hit I got from turning on FM after 30 days away from it. Despite that I guess I have been a bit rusty and was totally disoriented from what was going on with my team. You can't get into the Champions League without winning the league so we need to pick it up on that front. I haven’t touched anything tactically but sentimentally no one in the squad was safe. A blank canvas to work with and a fresh start. Transfers | Finances | New Stadium I got some great youth prospects coming through so I’ll be slowly, slowly transitioning them in. This unfortunately means I have to let some players move on. Not bad profits, however. This also was a landmark season as we finally managed to get a new stadium approved! Youth Squad | Preview | Intake | Youth Continental Enter the golden age of OFK Beograd. Youth Champions of Europe! What an insane achievement. Wasn’t an easy run either. I feel like Greece in 2004. Hopefully a taste of what will come in the future. First team next please! This intake is excellent. I have an absolute baller who can slot straight into the backline. Much needed. The depth looks solid as well but most will be going out on loan when they come of age. I am very excited for this next chapter into this challenge. Notable Prospects: Aleksandar Majstorovic (43A) | Andrej Ivanov (43B) | Ivan Gojkovic (43C) Healthy Crops: Ljubisa Stojanovic (35C) Of course we will start with the bad news. Red Bull Salzburg came in with an offer I can’t refuse. It is time to say farewell to my favourite player so far to work with. I’ll miss ya Ljubo and will be watching from the screen in my Belgrade penthouse. Feda Krsmanovic (40B) Hard to knock this guy off his goalkeeping throne. Definitely happy with his work in-between the posts and hope to have a good reign with him. Vlada Joksimovic (40A) The class of ‘40 is making me proud already. We are going to bounce back in style because of players like this coming through. Svetislav Mitrovic (40C) Another one.

Season Details League Table - We were always in the top two and never looked back. League Fixtures 1 & 2 - After winning our first four league games, we were never in trouble and promotion was never in doubt. F. A. Cup - A good cup run as we made it through three rounds before losing away to sixth tier side Nuneaton Borough in a replay. F. A. Vase - We played dreadfully in losing on penalties away to Letchworth Garden City Eagles in the first qualifying round. North West Counties League Cup - We made it all the way to the quarter final before losing at ninth tier outfit Runcorn Town. Pre Season Friendlies - A mixed bag with four wins and four losses. Squad - That youth intake has injected so much quality into the squad. Squad Dynamics - Team cohesion isn't good, largely down to the recent influx of players. Transfers In - None. Transfers Out - None. Youth Candidates - Attacking midfielder Stephen Hartshorn YP24A17 is the diamond in a wonderful group of players. Finances - Thanks to a good cup run and high attendances, we have made a small profit and our bank balance continues to grow. Key Players Tyler Woods - It was another goal feast from the striker. Freddy Anderson YP23A1 - Now fully trained in central midfield, he had a tremendous campaign. Leif Stokkeland YP24J26 - What a start to his career from the newly graduated Norwegian left winger. Some extraordinary performances. Osian Davis YP24B18 - The Welsh central midfielder has hit the ground running. Stephen Hartshorn YP24A17 - He graduated as an attacking midfielder but is being retrained in central midfield. He arrived as the best player at the club. Next Season I think we can push on for another promotion.

Popular Post DrJones Posted January 23, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted January 23, 2022 Truro City 2022/2023 The main target for the season was survival and we managed to achieve that pretty easy. The big problem is our defence. Our goalkeeper is absolute crap and two of four defenders should not be allowed to enter a football pitch. It is safe to say that we are going to be in this division for a while. Squad The strikers Neal and Rooney were amazing, other than that fairly average. Youth Intake Mr Stubbs will enter the starting XI right away, the other guys will have to improve a little bit more. Come on you white tigers! 9 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

With only one year left on his contract we will also have to sell Kieran McCluskey in the summer transfer window.

JLAB Posted January 23, 2022 Share Posted January 23, 2022 Beira-Mar – Season 12 – 2033/34 Our great start to the season made the next two 6 games feel like I was crashing back down to earth again. I had expected this after we were told that we would be playing Porto, Benfica and then Braga in consecutive matches, but it didn't make the run of for feel any better. So when we suddenly went to Gil Vicente and smashed them 4-1, it was a shock even to me. With just 2 wins so far this season, it's not been the best start to the season, but it was still better than I had been prepared for. Sitting 5 points clear of both the relegation and the relegation playoff zones, we had created a gap for ourselves and it was a nice feeling to know that as long as we didn't lose 5-6 games in a row, we could survive. As to how we ended up changing things around? My latest video reveals all. Can we pull of the upset and survive this season?

Popular Post JAwtunes Posted January 23, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted January 23, 2022 (edited) Izola - Season 9 (2030/31) Review We were unable to defend our league title and ended up in a disappointing 4th place. Our form was generally good and out xPts were far higher than what we achieved, unlike last season. Our goalkeeper had an absolute stinker and was dropped for a backup who was barely 2nd division level when he came in to the starting line up. We made our first cup final and lost on penalties to Olimpija - again having outplayed them for most of the game. Despite the disappointments it is nice to see we're capable of playing well and just need to be more clinical and need a reliable keeper. Roll on season 10...

Popular Post Makoto Nakamura Posted January 23, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted January 23, 2022 2063/64 End of Season Review We're down to the Championship. The players just aren't good enough for this level now and I'll explain more about that later on. Herein lies the issue, the quality of our current best xi according to our recruitment team: Ross McHattie - 20 yo - 3.5* CA (League One standard) 4.5* PA (Potentially Championship standard) Joel Kinsella (YP33d) - 23 yo - 4* CA (Good Championship player) 4.5* PA (Close to full potential) Robbie Rae (YP33f) - 23 yo - 3.5* CA (Great player for this team) 4.5* PA (Decent Premiership player) Blair Grant (YP41e) - 15 yo - 2.5* CA (League Two standard player) 5* PA (Could improve a lot) Ryan Whelan (YP27b) - 31 yo - 2* CA (Leading Highland-Lowland Leagues) 2* PA (Unlikely to improve) William Garcia (YP32a) - 24 yo - 3* CA (Good League One player) 3.5* PA (Could improve slightly) Kai Stuart (YP32e) - 25 yo - 3* CA (Decent League One player) 3* PA (Good League One player) Ciaran Jack (YP39f) - 17yo - 4.5* CA (Championship standard player) 4.5* PA (Could improve a lot) Grant Bain (YP34h) - 22 yo - 4* CA (Good Championship player) 5* PA (Good Premiership player) Rab Hart (YP36j) - 20 yo - 2.5* CA (League Two standard player) 3.5* PA (Potentially Championship standard) Gino Carere (YP30d) - 27 yo - 3.5* CA (Leading League One) 4* PA (Unlikely to improve) So there we have it, not one player is anywhere near good enough for this level so now we go back down to the Championship and build a better team.

Daddy Posted January 23, 2022 Share Posted January 23, 2022 2029 Midseason Review: Really managed to settle in even with having to rotate around with the Sudamericana. Top 4 finish isn't impossible, but I suspect will drop into the 5-8 range and spend another year in Sudamericana. A marked improvement from the previous year. Against VDG we lost 1-0 at home and gave up a late goal on road to draw 1-1. A little unfortunate and that ended our shot at winning the group. Rotated out the last game since it didn't mean anything and wound up with a draw. Definitely pointing in the right direction. prize from from Sudamericana and a Saudi team coming out of the blue to hit a release clause gave me the funds for an upgrade. 2029 Youth Intake Preview: I keep getting strong strikers, which I'll never complain about, and solid goalies. I could really use the GK to come up as a wonderkid. Above average goalkeeper puts us into title contention. 5 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post XaW Posted January 24, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted January 24, 2022 XaW - Brickfield Rangers - Season 2032/33 - JD Cymru Premier Squad | Transfers | Finances We are the champions of Wales! But I'm not the champion of screenshots...I have no idea how I managed to screw that up. Anyway, we had a great season and at a point it looked like we were walking away with the title, but towards the end we got a bit jittery. From having a 10 point lead of TNS we suddenly found them only 3 points behind us going into the final day, and they also had the superior goal difference. So we probably needed to pick up a point in the final match, at home to Bangor City. We dominated the game and won it 2-0 in a very controlled fashion to claim our first ever domestic title. Of course, this also means we are going into the Champions League next season! And with TNS having reached the group stage of the Europa Conference League, we might have a shot at something similar. At least I hope we can get in loads of money and go professional! This was a stunning season and loads of players stood out. Ilias Mavridis 31e were our top scorer again, and he is really developing into a great player. Siôn Wyn Peagram 30j had an amazing season on the wing where he assisted on an unprecedented scale, as well as scoring some important winners. In goal, Jay Beck 30k had another strong outing and continued his scoring streak by getting another 8 goals. The defense is our weakest part of the team, but Alec Weaver 31h are showing very promising signs. Welsh League Cup: We beat Cefn Druids, Gap Connah's Quay and Cardiff Met Uni before we lost to Bala Town on pens in the semi final.Welsh Cup: We beat TNS, Newtown, and Cardiff Dracs before we lost to Llandudno in the semi final. Europa Conference League: We beat Akademija Pandev of North Macedonia and Željezničar Sarajevo of Bosnia Herzegovina before we lost to FC Midtjylland in the 3rd qualifying round. Youth intake: One cracking talent, and a few more promising ones. Stuart Jennings 33a is a huge talent, and I've signed him down for as long a contract as I could, and I will increase it if possible. An amazing talent for us. Brett Parrish 33b is a very tidy player. Nicely rounded, but not any extreme attributes. Full backs with anything resembling pace is considered a unicorn at this level, apparently. Phil Evans 33e is one of those.
