January transfers

The Welsh league only allows you six players on loan, and the club already had 5 players when we walked in. It severely limited our ability in the market, but we still made some useful additions. 

Dan Jefferies signed on a free, while Jones joined from Wrexham on loan 

 

 

Pacy Winger Turner joined late in the window from TNS

December 

A tiny squad to work with, some reinforcements will be needed in the January window.

  

 

A string of good results sees us out of the relegation zone. This team is woeful at the back but can score goals. The focus will definitely be on getting defenders in January.

December 

Somehow,  Van Koopermiester has landed another job in the top flight. This time in Wales. 

Pontypridd United A.F.C. are also in the relegation zone, but with plenty of football left to play, survival is more achievable 

 

The club is even overperforming its expected position!

   

This is how the league table looks

November 

After a disgraceful tenure in Latvia, it will take some miracle for our Dutchman to get another job, but undeterred, he applies to every job in sight

October 

With survival in our hands, we set out against two tough games and fell way off the mark.

The board had seen enough and decided to cut their losses short. A painful debut for our manager, but a relegation dogfight was too much for him to handle

September

 

We grab the first win of our career with a spirited performance against the side in 5th place.

Our next opponent is the only team we've beaten before Metta, followed by the only team that could get relegated other than us. A huge two games await

The second game charge did not go well ......

The Transfers

As we are nearing the end of the season, the Latvian transfer window is closed, However, we had 10 days to add free agents to the side, and we signed anyone who was willing to put pen to paper 

Having spent hours looking at every free agent we could find on transfermarkt, I have signed 7 players. However, due to some bug, I could only register two, and i am stuck footing the bill for another 5 who would have guaranteed us staying up. Nonetheless, these two players join 

 

Belgian Fullback Jean Blondeel

 

 

Angolan Striker Ludovic Cadima

Not a promising start

The Squad 

 

Loads of players are unregistered. If we make it past this season, we are going to need to do a major overhaul 

Standout Players 

Latvian international Ingras Strugal is the best player at the club.

Club Overview

 

Current Season 

The team was predicted to finish 8th but is having an absolute stinker of a season. Our aim is to try and avoid relegation in what remains from the season. It will be a tough ask

It took us Two Months, but we are going to Latvia!

Hi all, 

 

This is mostly because I want to keep track of this save, so I can come back and reminisce, as I always end up forgetting what happened in my previous saves. 

 

Simple stuff so no long Intro, Journeyman save, starting unemployed with the lowest badge.

 

The goal is to win the European Champions League. 

 

We'll see how far it goes. Come and join me

 

[Life in Red & White - A Tribute to One of the Pioneers of Moneyball in Football: Croatia]

Rough campaign in the CL :/

[[FM22] Poland - Build a Nation - Stop waiting 20 years for a team in CL groups. - Polonia Warszawa]

Interesting that you would go down to the 4th tier this time. I'm afraid that the coeff will suffer from you being away from European competition for so long but hopefully your 3 teams can keep it up

[Life in Red & White - A Tribute to One of the Pioneers of Moneyball in Football: Croatia]

Just binged the entire thread, great work. I have a feeling you'll be staying at Croatia for a while, the new CL format is brutal 

[[Experiment] [FM21] How good is a wonderbabies only team?]

very interesting, did u ever finish the experiment?

Squad 

This is how the senior squad looks at the end of the season. Christian Beck scored a fantastic 24 goals in 37 games for the club. Winter signing Tobias Warschewski fscored 14 goals in 15 games. His brilliant start to life at Berlin forced us to ditch our 4-2-3-1 for an attacking 4-3-3 with three strikers.

This is how the U19 squad. I opted to sign only one player from the youth intake  I will probably continue to do so until we start getting better players, as I assume the intakes for the next few seasons wont be beneficial by the time they reach 19-20

[211 Nations. One club. One goal; Win the Champions league title.]

Berliner Landespokal

We've won the Berlin non league cup for a record 7th time with a 4-1 win in the final over promotion candidates Altglienicke. 

This victory means we participate in the DFB Pokal for the second time next season
