Well will could have low maximum wage limits and squad registration limits to try and limit this but then i think people would be saying we cant sign players and cant offer much wages for players. i think you will find it harder anyway when you reach the national league as well as losing quite a bit of money as well. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

kraftberk Posted January 7, 2023 Share Posted January 7, 2023 3rd season and another promotion, this time we went into the Northern Premier League Division 1 Midlands. This completes our little tour of Southern, Midland and Northern branded leagues and put us in a same league as our other fierce rival Harborough Town. It was a successful season with some good cup runs, thoroughly gutted to get FC Halifax in the FA Cup 1st round though. Scarborough dominating us away from home in the Trophy 5th round was also quite hard to take. Our winning campaign for the Northern Premier League Challenge Cup also included this nerve-shredder, I never want to see penalties again: Spoiler 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hitbox Posted January 9, 2023 Share Posted January 9, 2023 All Roads Lead to Radstock (again) - Season #2 23/24 To suggest that Radstock Town's 23/24 season was a failure would be hyperbole. After all, the Miners secured a second consecutive league title and promotion, as well as the club's highest ever finish. However, after last season's comfortable run in the Western League Division 1, the increase in quality at this level was clear. With his commitment to prioritise local talent, Mike Dando's goal to rise through the league system swiftly and comfortably is starting to seem overly ambitious and unrealistic. Without the resources and national scope of competitors, Dando will be relying increasingly on his intuition, getting the most out of his players and a good dollop of luck to ensure success in this forgotten corner of the South West. However, it is not all doom and gloom. With a media prediction of 17th and odds of 50/1 for the league title, Radstock performed well above expectations. The club's focus on local talent has seen it bring in some very promising young players that are being given the chance to flourish and grow. One of these players, Ade Gribble has some impressive talent and potential for this level, and there is genuine excitement around the club for Dando's Babes. Getting these future superstars signed onto part time contracts will be a priority when Radstock Town are an official Tier 8 club. As the club moves through the pyramid, their ability to look further afield for players naturally grows, as does its desirability for players to relocate. Radstock's first player outside of Somerset and the surrounding counties is promising striker Wes Bloomfield, who boasts some impressive physical and technical ability. Wes was on trial at a Wiltshire-based club, which brought him onto Radstock's radar. While the club is far from being able to send its volunteer scouts across the country to find hidden talent, the club is starting to build its reputation as a testing ground for young players who have not been given the chance to show the world what they've got. Wes perfectly demonstrates the opportunity that Radstock offers with an impressive return of vital goals on the way to the club's title-winning season.

Kaaox Posted January 9, 2023 Share Posted January 9, 2023 Year 2 (2023-2024) complete. Won the Tier 9 Division (Northern Counties East League Premier Division), gaining promotion to Tier 8. Also won both the FA Vase and Northern Counties East League Cup for the 2nd year in a row! However, the highlight was a run into the 3rd round of the FA cup! Getting knocked out by Championship team West Bromwich. Beating a L2 team in the 1st round and L1 team in the second round. Gave me tons of money that paid for upgrade to training facilities. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

We largely dominate the match but Notts County equalize 1-1at the 93rd minute and we lose on penalties Prestigious game in the FA Cup against Arsenal, lost 3-5 while we were leading 3-2 in the 60th 410 points however.
