xray1324 Posted May 7, 2022 Share Posted May 7, 2022 (edited) Wrexham, much like Newcastle, are a team that gained a heavy amount of funding. This is a save of trying to get Wrexham to the Premier League. Ryan Reynolds is the owner of the club. They're extremely ambitious (and to be fair, so am I), expecting promotion this season, which I am aiming to do. What does our tactic look like, then? Rules/Goals Gain promotion early on, by winning as much as possible. Youth focus, if we can, pull in the youth into the side. Sign young and try to sell them for a profit, repeat. Transfers In Knibbs Devine Devine is already a leading player for this league, and has the potential to be League One quality. A steal for 86k. Gordon Depending on how he does, we may try to sign him on permanently. But he might only be on loan, but he looks good for us. July - September 2021 Results Productive in pre-season, we struggled a little afterwards. However only 3 points seperate us and 1st.

xray1324 Posted May 8, 2022 Author Share Posted May 8, 2022 Youth Intake Preview Well, I guess we're getting a good deal with strikers. We'll see. October - December 2021 Results We're definitely starting to pick up speed here, picking up points after points, but occasionally dropping them. We're a little inconsistent. We're top of the league, but only just. Several clubs have games in hand over us and if they win them, they will leapfrog us. We could potentially drop as low as 4th, which we don't want to happen, and if it does, it cannot be a long time thing that we're 4th. Board and me want promotion. Next Season's Transfers These two are coming in - Eastwood's better than our current goalie, and has the potential to be League One quality. Forrester is the same, potentially league one quality, already Vanarama National Quality. Eastwood Forrester Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
xray1324 Posted May 8, 2022 Author Share Posted May 8, 2022 Youth Facilities and Youth Intake All 6 of these players have been offered contracts. Campbell Poole Colbert Barber Watson Allen Decent Youth Intake, good potential but hardly any good personalities. January - March 2022 Results Rough few months but successful nonetheless, picking up points again and again... It means we're currently sitting top of the league with two games in hand.

xray1324 Posted May 9, 2022 Author Share Posted May 9, 2022 April - May 2022 Results In a very inconsistent season, we managed to finish 2nd, but were also able to get to the Playoff Finals and then go on to win it. We're in League Two next season boys! Season Review Board Expectations Next Season Interesting. Next Season's Tactic This is what we switched to halfway through the season which saw greater consistency. We'll be sticking to it now. Awards Palmer and Mullin are two I desperately want to keep at the club, at-least for now. Transfers will come in the next post, but we've already made a few.

xray1324 Posted May 9, 2022 Author Share Posted May 9, 2022 Awards Facilities Transfers In 13 signings in, along with bringing in Gordon in for another season. Forrester Sky-high potential, he's plenty good enough. I know he's only Vanarama quality right now, but he's not a regular player for us. Simon-Swyer His potential isn't quite as high, but he also will be capable for us in a while. Eastwood Eastwood is now our mainstay goalkeeper. He's quality, and has the potential to be good for us till league one. Godsmark-Ford Quality potential, someone to keep an eye on. Haysman Another league one potential player. Turner He looks fairly good, with good potential. Davies League one potential, and looks good too. Keogh Solid in defence, should be a rock for us. McDonald Good defender. Redmond Okay, maybe not the best of signings. Brookwell League one potential. McLoughlin Probably one of the best signings actually. Medford-Smith Out Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
xray1324 Posted May 9, 2022 Author Share Posted May 9, 2022 Predictions We're apparently predicted to finish second. Board is expecting midtable. Lol. July - September 2022 Results Decent pre-season, and we've not done too badly in the league, either. Comfortably 4 points away from relegation, we're doing fairly well. Slowly trying to adapt into playing a counter attacking style and I think we're seeing some results. Just need to be more consistent. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Punch Posted May 10, 2022 Share Posted May 10, 2022 Congratulations on reaching the League. Good luck with your save. Hopefully you don’t end up like a lot of other Wrexham saves that end up with Reynolds selling the club a few years in. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

xray1324 Posted May 10, 2022 Author Share Posted May 10, 2022 Youth Intake Preview This looks like a particularly worse intake. Huh. October - December 2022 Results We've been very inconsistent with many poor performances, and the board has ranged from being happy with me to not being, as if on a dime. We moved to 15th, and look like we might manage to stay roughly there. Board Expectations I'm guessing I'm going to get sacked. Probably. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
xray1324 Posted May 11, 2022 Author Share Posted May 11, 2022 Youth Intake Another golden generation, with someone looking like he's almost ready for the first team early on! Manley Already looking like an amazing player for us and definitely someone to look out for. Dafydd He's got a while to go, but he's also looking pretty good. Both of them are lacking in determination though. Vickers Another high potential player, although he doesn't actually fit into our system currently, which means in youth he may struggle for games even if he improves. Tranter Solid goalkeeping stats, he can only improve in the future and he may challenge for the number one spot later down the line. Maybe. Next season I might start him in some cup games. Not all, but some. Connor Player that could jump leaps and bounds. Like a lot of the lot, his determination is poor. Mann Not entirely impressed here. Fairly good potential but he doesn't look to have good starting attributes. Personality is poor too. Murphy Could be developed into a wing back option, and looks to have fairly good potential. Tactical Change Only a minor one but it's seen us see greater consistency. We definitely need support in right wing-back though after Kellan Gordon got recalled, and it's coming next season. January - March 2023 Results We've seen greater consistency and with 2 months left on the clock, we sit in 13th. Incoming Transfers next Season Lewis Lewis is a great, young and versatile (if we decide to switch to a flat 4/5) Defender, with great attributes all around. He's determined and full of fight, and will be great for us. What's best? He's welsh! Gordon Gordon is an absolute steal for us. He's been performing really good until he got recalled for something stupid (out of position but the manager only complained this season despite it being a 2 season loan run.) Tilley Tilley is also young and can provide a versatile threat, being usable up at front, and down in midfield. Linton Coming in on a free, he is an excellent young player with bags of potential. We have been lacking a fast threat up front and we're hoping that he'll provide a good threat when he occasionally plays, getting playtime when necessary. Undoubtedly we will sign more players on free from the Premier League's youth, but I will be more selective this time, we don't need to bring in a ton of players. Obviously this assumes I'm kept on, but the board is happy now. They shouldn't let go of me. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
xray1324 Posted May 11, 2022 Author Share Posted May 11, 2022 New Contract! New contract! April - May 2023 Results We went on a fantastic run at the last couple of months, seeing us move up to 10th on the final day of the season. Fantastic! End of Season Review A fantastic season, and I hope for another one next season. Next Season Goals Not entirely sure how I'm going to grow the club's reputation, but I'll try. Next Season's Tactic Slightly modified version of the tactic, with a few tweaks to make us stronger in Defence. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
