The_Gato_In_Goal Posted December 20, 2022 Share Posted December 20, 2022 After a rough start to the league campaign, we finally tightened up at the back and nearly snuck into the promotion stage. But I will take being in the relegation stage, but 13 points clear to start. The league prize money, which was given in installments throughout the season, plus our mild success allowed me to finish a youth facilities upgrade as well as get junior coaching and youth recruitment boosts. Our training facilities are now Basic and Basic, so still very bad, but we have Good coaching and recruitment now. I think these take a while to really show the effects, but we do have an intake next week, so some of the improvements from the last few years shuld be reflected. 7 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post The_Gato_In_Goal Posted December 21, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted December 21, 2022 Brønshøj BK - Youth Intake Season 6 A solid intake overall. I would have preferred one or two solid defenders, but having an influx of talent in the midfield would have been my second choice. Ali Arslan 01a needs a partner in the center and Christian Provstgaard 04a has been kicking up a fuss about wanting to go to a bigger club, so to have 2 potential M(C) and 1 DM(C) as starters as soon as next season, that's great! While not many of the intake have a great personality, few of them have bad personalities, so a step in the right direction. Jesper Thevis 06a will provide cover for the first team next year. He turns 16 in a month and a half, so will be able to play right out of the gate next year. A reasonable passer, with reasonable physical attributes fits perfect for what I want out of my CM(A). The only reason Thevis 06a won't start next to Arslan 01a next year is this guy. He's just as good technically and physically, but a bit taller with a better personality. I've going to have to decide whether to play him and Arslan 01a as CM(A) or have this guy as a BWM(S). His birthday is also in a month and a half, so he will start next season. I like Mejer 06g, he seems to have solid stats to be a future starter on the wing. A fairly professional personality helps too. 9 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Vlach Posted December 21, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted December 21, 2022 Catania Season 23/24 It was one of those FM seasons to remember. Pre-season friendlies were not good, and i feared for the worst. But then suddenly the 4-3-3 started clicking, we won game after game and morale was high. Since i got a quite aging squad this was probably their best season for the forseeable future. In the end we lost just five times the whole season, and became winners of the Serie C/C, won as well the Super C cup. Next seasons therefor in the Serie B i will be a battle against relegation and aging, until hopeully some youngsters step up. What makes things worse is that my (good) young egyptian goalkeeper wants to leave ... i just an hope that Serie B and more money will solve that problem at least for some time.

The_Gato_In_Goal Posted December 21, 2022 Share Posted December 21, 2022 Brønshøj BK - Review Season 6 An up and down season, but I guess that's something I'd desire for the first year in the mostly professional second tier. We still are semi-pro, but we earned $1.2 million in prize money and TV money across the season, so we're set up well to be able to push on for more upgrades so long as we can avoid relegation. After a terrible start to the season, then almost sneaking into the promotion stage, we almost threw away our 13 point cushion and it took a 3 match win streak at the end of the year to avoid relegation. (It didn't help that the team we were 13 points ahead of had only 1 loss in the next 8) Next year the goal is to do the same, our squad is better, but still worse than the opposition in every aspect. We desperately need some defenders next intake as our DC are short and not very talented. A few of our key youth players: Spoiler Nobody really had a great year this season, but Spork 02a just barely cleared the 7.00 rating. The fact that he's our best defender speaks to the lack of talent, he is tall and not much else. Pedersen 01b is almost our club leading appearance maker, has been the starter for 6 years now. When Provstgaard 04a is not kicking up a fuss about wanting to leave, he is perfect for the DLP(D) role. Can't run, but is a great passer. We were very fortunate to have two players from the first intake able to remain in the first team for the next 6 years. Arslan 01a is 21 now, hit his PA a couple of years ago, but looks to be a fixture in this side for at least a few more seasons until the youth pass him by. A look at our healthy finances, with a couple chunks taken out for facility upgrades, and the lack of transfers except a team in our division poaching our backup GK for their youth team. We have so many GKs that I didn't care to offer him an improved contract to stay. 6 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spoiler We did adequately fine in the home first leg drawing 1-1 even though we were outplayed. However we colapsed in Portugal with our strikers having the worst game maybe of their careers Record against Playable Clubs: Spoiler Cup Champions for the 8th time Spoiler League Champions! While we pulled away in the final weeks this was a contested title due to the apperance of Titus Petarange's Andoran Striker who was the leagues top goalscorer with 41 goals in 26 appearances carrying the team on his own. Our matches with Swift were right after European fixtures so we were able to win and draw against them seeing them record their worst performance in years domestically, but they made the Europa League Quarter Finals. They still sacked their manager will be interesting to see who they pick next. Spoiler Youth Academy: Youth Intake Preview Spoiler Youth Intake Lots of top talents and a very promising Elite talent, but again underwhelming personalities. I blame it on still having my U21 coaching staff adjusting to life in Luxembourg. Spoiler Best Prospects Spoiler Germano Almeida looks like an awesome shadow striker or AP! I’m shocked they only give him 1*. He just needs speed and should be able to get enough to be perfect for our squad without being 'too good' that we lose him so quickly like our last star CM/CAM player. Of the rest they all seem just okay, nothing really worthy of highlighting as they don’t have exceptional personalities. Maybe one will surprise me with some mentoring. Best XI Spoiler And Record Breakers: Youth Products Highlights This year we ask the question: Have we replaced our Y10-Y11 Golden Generation with new talent? Strikers: Joao Pedro 10c has played his final season with us as I'm letting him go on a free this summer. The club legendary goalscorer has started to degrade and has already been fully replaced by David Sousa 18d. A much more versatile attacker who is very effective as a Shadow Striker for Continental play. In addition, we also have Leonard Ebenhoech 21b LM/AF who more directly replaces Pedro on who is the second choice for both positions. [SUCCESS] Fabio Algarvio 11a has just become even more essential to our success with age. I just signed him onto a 4 year + 1 year contract and I fully expect him to last the entire duration. We have no players even close to matching him in the pipeline [FAILED] Midfielders: 3 years ago now Nuno Miguel 09a was replaced by Nelson Graca 15c for the 'precursor' player to the GG. Even more adaptable than Sousa, Graca is a creative attacker and big-time LUX international. If we fail to develop a new striker he is the most likely candidate to replace Algarvio for a dual creative strike pairing [SUCCESS] Emidio D'Avila 10b at RM has been lethal down his wing his entire career. Even at 31 he's just as good, but we have finally developed an alternative for him in Rogerio Clemente 20a who had an excellent loan spell in Portugal and has come back and claimed the mantal of top assister for the season. [SUCCESS] Abilio Monteiro 10a is our captain in the midfield and we had our replacement for him in Guilherme Seco 20b, but he was too good according to our board. In our current roster we have some prospects here in Andre Brito 21a and Diogo Xavier 20d as well as two recent CMs generated in our intakes. No one is ready, but we have a pipline to replace him assuming he makes it to retirement [UNDERWAY] Defenders: At CB we have Miguel Ribeiro 11g who at only 29 has plenty of time left in his career. We have found him a strong partner in Joao Valente 18e and already have his relacement Simao Correia 21e playing as our LB replacing the only Y12 player Antonio Silva 12j. We additionally have numerous acceptable FBs who can come on as substitutes as well as tall man Americo Santos 15d providing a fully stocked Defense [2 SUCCESS] TL;DR - We have replacements for 5/7 already and the 6th has a strong development pipeline of potential players. Only our Star Striker fails to find a replacement, though our Playmaker could move forward with good CM development. So even with questionable intakes, we are producing the quality necessary to advance the club! Club Infrastructure No ability to upgrade Youth Facility so we are just hoarding money right now. Again, we need to make Champions League to bump our reputation up to Continental then the next phase of club expansion. We did finish our 2nd Stadium expansion so we have the biggest stadium in Luxembourg (which is still tiny). Spoiler Luxembourg Luxembourg is still moving up, top 20th league in Europe which puts us just beneath the Sky Bet Championship and above the 2nd Bundesliga! I hope this helps boost our club reputation as league titles should give us more points now. TV Money is now USD 5.7M, so only a slight bump.

JLAB Posted December 21, 2022 Share Posted December 21, 2022 (edited) Motor Lublin - Season 7 - Winter Break So the new season started and we managed to do things we've never done before. First, we won the Superpuchar Polski for the first time, and we also played out first ever Champions League matches, in a losing effort against Celtic both times. I like winning trophies, so being able to lift that for the first time is always a positive. As a result of dropping down into the Europa League, we got given our 8 matches for the competition. There are some winnable games, but there are also games I'm not confident about. We just need to do well here. So imagine my surprise when we picked up some good wins in the Europa League. I'm ignoring the fact we got knocked out of the the Puchar Polski first round, because we beat AGF and Atlético Madrid for the first time, and came from 2-0 down to draw 2-2. We have lost the last 3 games in Europe though, so it's not going as well as I hoped it would. The league though is going pretty well, we currently sit in 2nd place as we attempt to defend our crown for the first time. The tycoon owned Śląsk are finally delivering on their promise, but with the winter break happening now, things could change quickly. As for our Europa League form, we need to start performing as well as we did earlier in the season, or we will be dropping out of European football in the league phase. Still, our preview looks promising and I would like it if we get what I believe will be at least one or two world class players in the future. I like producing wonderkids after all.

Koetzer Posted December 21, 2022 Share Posted December 21, 2022 FK Viktoria Žižkov – season 2028/29 We lost three first team players from last season – Macek moved to PSG, Križmanić was sold to Benfica by the board, setting our new transfer record (I only could negotiate a future sale clause), and Ellison missed around half a year with injury. So, predictably it was a worse performance this time, though still enough to stay clear of danger in the final stage. Also got this achievement on the last matchday. This game didn't decide anything and we lost it 3-4, still a nice milestone for our academy. Cup Had not enough squad depth to be competitive here as well. Squad stats M.Muxel *23a – our only player to have an average rating over 7… and most likely the next one to leave with a transfer request and one year under a contract Probably I’ll try to postpone this transfer for the end of next season, like I did with Macek. O.Sedláček *27a – unfortunately he isn’t developing at all, but became our top goalscorer this season. D.Klinka *26d – matched the club record in assists, playing on both wings and becoming our primary set piece taker. V.Matejka *24a – became a leading central midfielder after Macek’s departure, and what’s really important, signed a new three-year contract. P.Kodr *26c – yes, Ciupa is still a good goalkeeper, but I felt that it was time to trust in our youngster. Transfers – guess I made a mistake agreeing to sell Tsiaras before that forced transfer of Križmanić. It left us without a decent backup winger, but I just gave up trying to develop a casual player. Worst in training, unhappy with everything and never reacting well. Youth intake (preview) Spoiler Vaněk *29a | Wiesner *29b | Volešák *29c | Skuhravý *29d | Bureš *29e | Stracený *29f | Beneš *29g Vanek can become a new key midfielder for us, defense and winger positions also got some improvement. The money we got from Benfica were used to improve all our infrastructure (the youth facilities are on the way and will be completed in July). 7 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our Champion's League campaigned ended in the knockout round as we lost to Chelsea. The majority of the first team posted good numbers including our winger who achieved a record number of assists. Our youth intake was an improvement on the last couple of years as we were able to bolster the squad numbers. We also had another winner of the European Golden Boy award. Transfers the season Season history. Our average attendance was down as we ground shared whilst our own stadium expansion is finished.

The_Gato_In_Goal Posted December 21, 2022 Share Posted December 21, 2022 Brønshøj BK - Youth Intake Season 7 A few days before the intake we received some of our prize money for the league, allowing a couple of upgrades. The one thing we needed was a good DC, and this one will do quite nicely. Outside of this, there's not much going on, but it's a sign of progress to get to the point at which the entire intake doesn't become first team players right away. Aaquist 07a is a beast. Tall, not slow, both footed, Driven personality, and actually has technical ability to defend and even play with the ball at his feet. He's already 16 so will start every game possible until he leaves the club, he's that talented. Sundberg 07b looks promising if not for having a poor personality. I don't think he will develop much, but he will be able to provide cover at both wingback positions next season. 6 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

With Haaland and Mbappe both missing this was the golden opportunity but 18 mins from time we finally gave in to the pressure and despite taking it to penalties we just couldn't get it over the line. I did however finally manage to get one over Boris Mandli (Elite2) by beating Bayern 2-1 in the semi final. We won the double once more making it 3 times now and there is still no sign of a clear challenger for the title. We didn't manage an unbeaten season but we were close, just too many fixtures piling up meant the rotation had to be quite drastic at times. For the NXGN, not as many as last season but 5 as well as 2 of the top 3 is still fantastic. This just highlights how annoying it is that Man City, Liverpool and Chelsea all come in with 8m plus add-ons for Jusufi but I guess that comes with doing the challenge in a non-Big 5 league. Off the park I've made some improvements to the staff we employ in all departments yet still not option for improving the youth facilities despite now having over £220m in the bank We are now over the 1m social media followers no doubt due to our Champions League exploits and quite a change in the supporter profile. Next Season As ever the focus is on keeping the squad together, after turning down bids for Jusufi Man City turned their attention to Kenny Kirk and have now unsettled him as well so it's going to be a long summer for sure. I'll look to develop Suardi (Elite9) next season in central mid and Pavec (Elite10) at right back despite only just turning 16 as I need options at right back. Luckily it seems Cantarella (Elite5) is happy at the club and no clubs currently interested in him despite winning the European Golden Shoe two years running now, I'm certainly not complaining. I'm not expecting to repeat this year's European run but if I can keep the squad together and get a few more of the most promising youth players up to speed we can certainly become a mainstay of the latter stages of the tournament.

Popular Post Maradona Posted December 22, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted December 22, 2022 South Shields 2023-2024 Hi I tried a couple of other times to do the challenge but both times the teams that I picked barely had any players so I restarted and chose South Shields since they have a decent squad when they appear in the game and also very good facilities. # The team was very good and I guess it helped that we were professional . 9 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Gato_In_Goal Posted December 22, 2022 Share Posted December 22, 2022 18 hours ago, The_Gato_In_Goal said: Unfortunately, it seems like the bug with Danish sides being able to offer players contracts even if they are under a part-time contract already still exists. So I expect to make the most out of the half season we'll have him for before another team is able to sign him on a free. Despite the fact that we have him contracted for 3+2 years.

Maradona Posted December 22, 2022 Share Posted December 22, 2022 (edited) South Shields 2024-2025 Something strange happened. I first got the message with all D's and after a few months this changed to A's T The Youth intake had some very good players. Especially Chris Edwards D(R) who is very good as a Centre Back. The season was very successful, finishing in 4th even though I lost in the playoffs. The stadium was expanded again since we had 89% attendance and 3 sellouts. The bad thing is tha our facilities were downgraded even though we have 400K Euro in the bank. Edited December 22, 2022 by Maradona 7 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post JAwtunes Posted December 22, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted December 22, 2022 Cardiff Corinthians - Season 2043/44 Review (s22) Invincible season Another great season domestically and same as usual in Europe where we finished bottom of our Champions League group, but happy to qualify for the group stage again as this is our only real source of income. We sold our best ever player this season (Andrew Catherall) and our goal scoring output took a big hit. He is now playing for Spurs and is on a £165k p/w contract, so quite an increase on the £60 p/w he was earning with us. Despite new owners we are still unable to improve our youth facilities, so they are stuck on Great, despite spending loads on junior coaching and recruitment, having other £100m in the bank and the club having a club culture to develop player using the youth system and a 5yr plan to maintain our youth system as the best in the country (what a shambles!). I'm sure a reputation increase would help, and we have jumped to 3 star in recent seasons (well above the reputation of the best teams in Wales at the start of the game) but its not enough yet. We will push hard in Europe again and try to nick a 3rd place in our (Champions League, hopefully) group. Its a small goal to aim for but the next step in our journey.

v1n1akabozo Posted December 22, 2022 Share Posted December 22, 2022 (edited) I'm too lazy to keep reporting season after season, but i'm on season 6 and still in the 6th tier on England, but things are starting to click =].@XaW I have a question for you, if you don't mind. How much of a role does retraining players play into your success? I've started doing it lil bit more and it's been a huge positive impact.

Popular Post fries Posted December 22, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted December 22, 2022 Premier League 2035/36 (season 13) Season Summary Great season. From the middle of December until the end of the season we were in great form and only lost 4 games. We had great wins against teams like Man Utd, Liverpool, and in the last game of the season Man City. The last win secured the 6th position and thus a continental tournament for the first time in history. I am looking forward to try out the Europe League next season. Toby Walters was crazy good with 31 goals and 11 assists. Smith also performed very well with 11 goals and 15 assists from the midfield. He played the three most offensive positions in my narrow diamond on the midfield. Patrick Walters also did well with 19 goals. I had a few players that had their breakthroughs on the first team Jackson, Schubert, and Saarinen. A few players a developing well and are close to a breakthrough: Owen, Wilde, and maybe Irvine. One or two players may also come home from a loan and get game time next season. I need more depth due to playing in Europe League. Jack Smith is without a doubt my best player. He has a long contract but a Champions League release clause of £86 mill. Toby Walters was my top scorer and won a lot of awards this season, including Footballer of the Year, Players' Player of the Year, Players' Young Player, and Players' Team of the Year. He is not very technically gifted. But he is hard-working and relatively fast. I had 2 players on the NXGN-list. Jackson was number 2 on the list, and Maddison who is out on loan was number 31. The youth intake preview looked promising. Not very happy with the intake. No 5 star PA players. And two of the elite talents are wingers, which I don't use. The U21 team won a promotion to U21 Premier Division 1. I reinforced the U21 team with the best young players from my 1st team in the playoff games. No transfers of significance this season. But I will lose a few players after this season that who were important to my rise in the league a few years ago, but that are not good enough anymore. Finances and Upgrades No upgrades this season. Hopefully, I can soon ask for upgrades to the youth facilities. Next season Next season, I just hope to keep developing my players. If I am lucky we can qualify for a European spot again. 11 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
MacronQLF Posted December 22, 2022 Share Posted December 22, 2022 (edited) TECOS FC END OF THE SEASON 2029-2030 (mexican 1st division) Hey guys, to do a reminder we're in the first mexican division for the second year and last year we finished 9th in the opening stage and 17th in the closing stage, and we lived a similar year this season, Now ill introduced you our most important players off the season Spoiler Like last year we played a very defensive tactic which doesn't really fit players as they are on the slow side but we don't have the quality to play more openly, It payed off on the opertura where we played the most boring football but managed to finish 8th ( a new record yey ), we were blessed with the good form of our strikers especially Adame who was clinical in front of the goal and for the first season titular of Guarch he improved a lot and bringed us the pace we were lacking Spoiler But like last year we started to stuggle in the closura and we weren't able to bring wins till late in the season, honestly we didn't play badly and i think we showed better football than we did in the opening stage but we were lacking of the little flame who bring the 3 points, it was maybe luck maybe players quality maybe manager quality but we did the worst run of form since a long time . I tried to play more of a possession tactic in the end of the season who bring us a couple of wins but we still finished 17th. I felt bad about this because i was hoping to improve the club and for an other year we are in the bottom . We're not relegated thought so it's not a disaster . Here the league table followed by the squad list Spoiler We gave a lot on appearances for the youngsters but no developing which is frustrating , Cervantes, Cruz and Landeros have like 100 matches played in the first team but their level stay the same so i think they won't improved much, Sanchez and Gallardo were bringed up to the first team this year but didn't improved at all We have some promising youngsters coming up for next season in left and right back positions, and i expect a lot from them. Im worried for the few next years as we had two bad youth intake back to back so we have less quality than a few years ago in our youth team, our youngsters promotion was bad this year as we have only one 5 stars potential , Henry Gonzalez, which is unambitious. Some others players have some potential but are absolutely terrible for now and it will be long before they could join the first team Spoiler We kept all our player roster this year, but sadly Jaime Mar, our best player,is leaving in the end of his contract in 6 months ( he don't want to sign a new contract ) our financially situation is going on the red again after 2 calm years and we need to sell this transfer window but i hope i won't lose an important player. The financial situation of the club is giving me headaches as we lose a lot of money every year despite the fact that we don't give huge wages and i have no idea how to improve it . The biggest problem about it is that we can't improve facilities with no money in the bank and we are stuck with averages one. Spoiler For the next season i will changes all tactics cause i think i can do better and i can't hide behind players quality as hubwub did a banger save with an other mexican club so i will try to keep up with the master Let's hope for the best !

Flashman\'s School Days Posted December 22, 2022 Share Posted December 22, 2022 Jomo Cosmos - Season 2025/26 Review Manager Characteristics - Manager Attributes - Transfers - Fixtures 1, 2 DStv Premiership - 4th A fantastic leap in league position compared to last year but only 10 points better off. We were also top scorers in the league for the second season running but scored a couple less this time around. We were fairly consistent throughout the season, spreading our losses throughout and only once having back to back defeats, although we could have been a lot better off if we hadn't have lost our first team goalkeeper as neither of the other keepers at the club are even remotely good. With this fourth placed finish, I believe we will get entry to the second tier continental competition so I expect with the extra games we may not do as well next season. MTN 8 - Quarter Final The quarter final is the point at which the team gets entered so we lost at the first hurdle. Telkom Knockout - First Round Again another first stage exit for us but we did get drawn against Orlando Pirates so it was no surprise. Nedbank Cup - Semi Final We were excellent in what is the South African FA Cup, even setting the record for most goals in a single season of the cup, we got drawn against Sundowns in the semi final with the other semi final being between teams I would have fancied our chances against, unfortunately we conceded an equaliser in the 94th minute and the winner in the 121st minute. Sundowns would go on to win the cup against second tier opposition in the final. Squad We lost a couple of players from last season, unfortunately one was the goalkeeper and we had no real suitable alternative as the two goalkeepers at the club are poor. I attempted to play the younger and better potential of the two as the main goalkeeper in the hope that we would improve and be a long term option, however, he hardly improved at all and in fact Sithole improved a lot more despite playing half of Arendse 24h's games. Luckily neither will be the number one next season due to a better keeper coming through the intake. Our centre backs were the best performing players in the defence with all the fullbacks struggling this season Ntuthuko Mlotshwa and Khaya Mashiane were the two starters with Siphamandla Ndukwane 24e doing well as the understudy. The central defensive midfielders we play with were similar to the centre backs in that we had a couple of starters with a good understudy, although with Matsi Sono now being 34 Njabulo Francis 24g will probably become a starter alongside Bonginkosi Sibanyoni who having had his rapid development over the past couple of years seems to be on a plateau now. In attacking midfield Mooketsi Phindela and Luke Mthimkulu 24a rotated the central role, both performing well although the latter's personality seems to be keeping him on a leash development wise. On the the right Thokozani Shabalala was again one of the most important players with his goals and assists, making up for the left side not producing much this season, his understudy Sibusiso Modise 25l came in and had a great immediate impact in the team. Up front, last season's top goalscorer Gontse Molefe was impressive with his 11 goals in what was a season of being a back up because the player of the season Ayanda Kubheka wanted an improved contract which meant he wanted to be a first team regular, luckily he repaid the faith by smashing 30 goals in 23 starts. Youth Intake Another great intake with lots of five star potentials and as has been the case since I joined the club the personalities are pretty good, I'm not sure I have ever had a single intake in FM where less than half have had bad personalities let alone three in a row. Also for the third season running we've had an AM (C) be one of the best players of the intake which is kind of frustrating because it will be difficult to get them enough game time to develop but Reason Shange 26d is still a really good prospect and I may have to try and retrain him. Our first team AM (L) is currently underperforming and likes to get caught coming out of bars in the early hours so I already had a youth player from last season getting decent game time but I have had both Allan Mtsweni 26e and Mfundo Smith 26f come through who look like they can be instantly better back ups. Then we come to Morgan Masuku 26g who is instantly the best goalkeeper at the club, I decided against using him this season because I wanted to keep the faith with the two we already had in case of them developing but from next season he will be my starting GK. Finally the best player of the intake is Samkelo Johnson 26a who is already good enough to challenge for a first team spot especially as my other young left back from last year's intake needs some more time to develop away from the first team and really underperforming in almost every match he played. Finances The finances are looking ok and I'd say yearly we are probably breaking even at the moment and that is because since we increased both Junior Coaching and Youth Recruitment to excellent we began losing a small amount every month. So even though with that happening every month with a small amount of prize money, sponsorships and season ticket income we are fairly healthy. This does mean, however, that we likely won't see any improvements until we either have a big sale or make some decent prize money but the only competition where the prize money seems alright is in the champions league which is a little way off for us yet. We also have only one more year until we move to our new stadium so that may also have an impact on our finances if we can attract more fans being in a less competitive town. We also had our first ever sale this season, making £28k off a 19 year old who was an alright back up but nothing we will miss. 7 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post The_Gato_In_Goal Posted December 22, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted December 22, 2022 Brønshøj BK - Review Season 7 Did slightly better than last season as we got into the promotion stages then proceeded to lose most of our matches. We actually finished with one less point than last year in the preliminary phase, although we finished with a 0 goal difference for the second year straight. The two teams that got relegated and promptly went back up were much better than the rest of the division. Looking for a few more youth next year to build depth and eventually get into the top flight. The cost of the jump from Good to Excellent youth recruitment and junior coaching put a pretty large dent in our finances, so it would be nice to get to the top flight sooner rather than later. Especially since we can then start saving the money to turn professional and therefore not lose any more of our players due to the free transfer bug. A few of our key youth players: Spoiler The exceptional prize money is just about keeping our finances afloat for now, although I will hold off on any more facility upgrades until we turn pro. Just one B team player on the out this year, no transfers in. 8 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
