happy slappy Posted May 11, 2008 Share Posted May 11, 2008 Woohoo 10 Pages! Into the third phase on my Chile game, 3 points behind the leaders and 6 ahead of the team in third. Just need a half decent striker to replace my aging star striker, looks like I may have to wait till the transfer window. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gilbster Posted May 11, 2008 Share Posted May 11, 2008 I think I may have destroyed Stranraer. Currently still in the pre-season, but managed to sell and let go of some of my better players from last season, without getting replacements. Don't think I stand a chance at the second of getting a squad that can win any matches at the moment. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frazza Pee Posted May 11, 2008 Share Posted May 11, 2008 Better to resign IMO because if you get sacked your rep could go down and no club would want you because you got sacked from Stranraer Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gilbster Posted May 11, 2008 Share Posted May 11, 2008 Interesting Job Offer - Being offered a 1 year contract on £0 per week. And no wage or transfer budget either! The club does appear to have a full squad though. Think I will delay and make up my mind in a week, since I already have Bath agreed to a delay!

Gilbster Posted May 11, 2008 Share Posted May 11, 2008 After thinking it over for a week I am now the new manager of Gutersloh, in the Germand Regional Division West. Didnt notice when I was looking at the club that it has no staff. Suppose I will start there, since I at least have players. Ok, this makes more sense to me now, they appear to be an Amateur club. What exactly do I need to know about managing Amateur clubs? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

markcator3006 Posted May 11, 2008 Share Posted May 11, 2008 Finished my 2nd season at Melaka. After a mid-table finish in my first season I decided to concentrate on trying to strengthen the defence. My scout found me a 16 year old central defender with decent stats so I snapped him up as soon as I could. Most my signings during the season was either in defence but I signed a couple of goalkeepers aswell. I actually amazed myself with how well we were doing and making a push for promotion, with 2 draws in our last 2 games it was tight at the top with 4 teams aiming for 2nd place. 2009 League Table Possibly the best player to come from Malaysia?

happy slappy Posted May 11, 2008 Share Posted May 11, 2008 Congrats on the promotion markcator! Wow, Yunus doesn't look that bad, definitely one to keep in the long-term, how does your reputation fair? Any increase after promotion? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
markcator3006 Posted May 11, 2008 Share Posted May 11, 2008 My reputation is still at National. Contract is running out aswell and the board havent offered me a new 1. Debating whether to accept a new contract if they offer me 1 or just leave them on a high and find a job elsewhere. But with the reputation of the Malaysian League I'm doubting that I'd find a job from any of the other nations I've loaded. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gilbster Posted May 11, 2008 Share Posted May 11, 2008 Half way through my season with Gutersloh and they are 11th. However the board isn't happy that we are just about above the relegation zone, given we were aiming for a respectable league position. Hopefully I can hold onto my job until the season, and then possibly not renew the contract. Managing an Amateur club is definitely a slightly different experience to what I'm used to.

happy slappy Posted May 11, 2008 Share Posted May 11, 2008 5 games left of the season to go and I need just one more win to get promotion.
