Andover New Street - 2022/23
We started strong and by the end of November was second place in the league. 4 points for the whole of Dec and Jan prompted a tactical rethink and a change of formation, which got us back to form, and in fact better than ever before. Finishing 4th in the end and winning the play offs.
Eddie Perrett scored 45 goals in all competitions and has other clubs sniffing around. My DCs came second and third in the young player of the year competition so will be trying to keep hold of them. One of them, Stojanovic was a beast at corners getting 10 goals, 3 of which came in the play off semis.
Youth intake was a bit of a disaster, I saw I could pick up the players on pay as you play contracts taking just £2pw out of the wage budget so I thought, sign them all and told the DoF to give everyone contracts, he promptly put them all on £5pw guarenteed and took me over my wage budget by £100pw. Not much, but when the total wage Budget is £211pw its a big deal. Luckily promotion has inspired them to increase the wage budget to £975pw. Thats going to be fun using up.
On to the Wessex Prem.....
