markcator3006 Posted May 11, 2008 Share Posted May 11, 2008 7 Games into the new season playing in the Malaysian Super League, I decide to resign from Melaka. I took the cowards way out and left them bottom of the table with just 2 points, and the previous result (a 6-2 defeat to Penang) I finally made my mind up.

markcator3006 Posted May 11, 2008 Share Posted May 11, 2008 Well that was quick. San Luis (CHI) from Chile sacked their manager and immediately offered me the job. They currently play in the Chilean First Division B league, the 2nd tier in Chilean Football and with a predicted finish of 12th(bottom) I'll hopefully bring them some success over the coming season. My first bit of business will to see if I can bring the young Malaysian centre back I signed for Melaka, Ali Yunus, to San Luis but looks unlikely as I currently have no transfer funds.

happy slappy Posted May 12, 2008 Share Posted May 12, 2008 Predicted to finish bottom, and that's what happened on my Chile save (I think), but watch out if you do get promotion, your players may be rated 6 or 7 stars but get promoted and those stars will drop to 4 or 5, that's what happened with me, now I have to buy nearly a new team.

But Inter is probably the pinnacle </div></BLOCKQUOTE> Thought I'd bring this post back to our attention because I've just had the opportunity to take over Spurs. Being one of the few clubs on the game that I'd jump at the chance to manage I'm pleased to tell you all that I am the new manager of Tottenham Hotspur. Fare thee well United. My History It was an easy move for me really. Tottenham have been a force to be reckoned with under Aidy Boothroyd - winning the Prem 3 times in a row (until Arsenal won the last 2) and the Champions League in 2023. Suprisingly Boothroyd was let go at the end of his contract - quite why the board let the most successful Spurs manager ever go is beyond me. Not one to complain, I jumped at the chance to manage 'my' team. The plan is to bring back a little used 3-3-4 formation used by Sir Bill Nicholson back in the 60s by Spurs. I've certainly got the players for it as these screenshots will show. David Brunel Sebastian Laurent Benjamin Toure- they make up the French contingent here, v.promising The 3 man defence will be these boys: Sebastian Portillo Ousmane Vincent and Alexandre Lima These are the key men. I'm hoping to bring Javi Torres in at some stage but United appear quite bitter towards me so possibly not. Anyway the board want me to get the title back off Arsenal in 2 years. The media predict 2nd. It will be close. I also get to venture into the Champions League for the first time ever. C'mon Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ToMexico!! Posted May 12, 2008 Share Posted May 12, 2008 16/17 - Gratkorn Media Prediction 1st Transfer Budget 160k Wage Budget 2mil(ish) per annum Another title winning season for Gratkorn. We looked dominant from the off but never managed to open a margain of points sufficient to give some assurances when it came to the final few games of the season, although i never doubted that we would lose the title. And yet again this season we finished runners up in the FA Cup this time to GAK. Table We had a small transfer budget although we were in debt at the beginning of the season but i felt we never needed to spend it. I added 3 top quality free transfers to the side, Vinko, a slovenian Medved and an old player of mine Jakob Jantscher. I managed to sell a few fringe/possible future squad players for a little cash to help lower the wage budget and the bank balance. For the first time in this career i'm now over my wage budget largely due to having to pay Vinko a large 205k a year to sign. Trasnsfers Squad European adventures were once again with Gratkorn, Champions League first but as i had previously posted we were dumped out by Liverpool 8-0 on aggregate, the UEFA cup was not much better we were also boshed by boro, 5-3 on aggregate. The stadium capacity was also increased this season, to a much imporved 8727, but still very low for a team competing in Europe. Wonder whether i'll be hit with another balance shattering loan this close season as the stadium is once again increased!! Club Info Through an accumulation of loans repayments and being slightly over our wage budget finances were never going to return to the black without the sale of a few of our stars, thankfully the chairman never intervened with player sales. But on the other hand we are nearly 1.5mil in debt. So maybe letting a player go will help. Finances As i also posted previously i stated that my reputation was now Continental. So a few bigger teams maybe interested in my services in the near future. Although i took a new deal at the beginning of May to ensure some management going into the new season. Manager Profile Manager History Aims for next season > Do the domestic double > Get into either the Champions League or UEFA Cup group stage > Decrease the current wage bill > Increase the bank balance I feel all of these are achievable but i will be happy with a 50% success rate with them.

ToMexico!! Posted May 12, 2008 Share Posted May 12, 2008 As i expected the board have decided to enlarge the stadium again at a cost of 2.3mil for a poxy 1200 more seats. In the long run great but loans have now gone to a massive 13mil. WHOOooo Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
freek_teek Posted May 12, 2008 Share Posted May 12, 2008 After a while of not playing FM, I decided a long carreer game is what I needed. Following ToMexico's advice and choosing Germany as a base, I loaded all leagues in: Germany, France, Belgium, Holland, Denmark, Poland, Czech Republic, Austria and Switzerland. After holidaying for about two weeks (reputation semi-pro) I was approached by Holbaek in the Danish 2nd Division (3rd tier). As the only other interested team were Ogghersheim, and I didn't feel like starting in Germany the choice was easy (the 1k/week contract may have helped too) The teams I hope to manage somewhere along the way: KRC Genk (home team) in Belgium St-Etienne in France Werder Bremen in Germany -> Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frazza Pee Posted May 12, 2008 Share Posted May 12, 2008 YASSSSSSS I won the South Africa first division club after the ex-manager taking them to the final and my first game in charge was the final. we were drawing 2-2 until the final minute my star striker scores a 35 yard screamer which looped over the keeper taking a nick off the bar in the process to win the cup.

JoseBlanco Posted May 13, 2008 Share Posted May 13, 2008 2007/2008 Season. FC Eindhoven Media Prediction - 14th My first ever season in Dutch football ended with a very promishing 4th place which got us a place in the Relegation Playoff. These are how the periods ended up - 1st Period 2nd Period 3rd Period4th Period 5th Period 6th Period and the final league table and graph So onto the Relegation Playoff in which we got a bye in the first round. Our second round game was against MVV who had finished 6 points above us in the league. The first game was at our home ground and finished 1-1 with both of the goals coming in the first half. We took the lead in the 9th minute when van der Heijen scored a one on one with the keeper. Their reply came in the 42nd from a penalty which was given from a corner. The second game was a very similar encounter with the score line being the same. We once again took the lead in the last minute of the 1st half. They once again got a pentaly to take the round to a play-off which would be at our ground. The final game of the second round gain us and place in the final round as we wn the game 1-0. Once again the game was very close with the goal coming from a corner, in the 25th minute, with the shot hiting two other players before going in. Our third rund game would be against NAC Breda from the Premier Division. The first game was total dominated by NAC but we some how got away with a 0-0 scoe line. Stats The second game they were not so forgiving and the game ended 2-0 to them (stats) but suprisingly we got another play-off match because of the fact that we drew the 1st game. We stilled had a chance of promotion. The third and final game was a much more even contest with either side having chances to score. But it was us that that got the opening 63 minutes into the match with van der Heijen with one of their players giving the ball away cheaply and letting him get a through on goal. NAC had still a few chances to score after that with them with them hitting the post with very few minutes left. But some how we held on gaining us promotion to the Premier Division. stats Third Round Aims for next season - To build on the squad we have got - To improve the current fiances - Try not to be destroyed in every game <pre class="ip-ubbcode-code-pre">Season Club Finish League Achievements 2007-2008 FC Eindhoven 4th First division Promotion </pre> Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
