Season 8 July Half Season Update - 1. Deild Karla:

Results | League Table

We have played some outstanding football in the cups! we have only drawn once and lost once in 13 games! We also have a great defensive record as well! To top this off we are now the league cup holders, we beat the best team in Iceland, Fram, 1-0 in a final in which both teams went down to 10 players.

Unfortunately we haven't been quick as good in the league, due to the fixture congestion I was fielding my B team for some of the games or a very tired A team. However the last two games were a 3-0 and 5-0, yes 5-0!!, win are more like what we should have been like earlier on.

Finances | Transfers

The accurate term is: KERRRCHIIINGGGGG. Wow, that cup run has given us loads of money, best of all is that attendances have risen! The 5-0 win against Prottur was chosen as a fan day so hopefully that should get me some fans!

Any information you want then just ask.

Flamers

**SnakeXe** · 05-02-2011 19:15

WONGA!

Sorry, that really is a terrible advert. Great performance in the cup

**Flamers** · 05-02-2011 19:17

Haha that man makes me laugh

I can't see to get a string of good results in the league...

Season 8 Review - 1. Deild Karla:

Results | League Table

I cracking cup run saw us win the league cup, we then went on a huge unbeaten streak. We ended the season with 13 wins, 5 draws and 4 loses. As you can see we did have some cracking games, a couple of 5 goal games where a joy to watch!

A +24 goal difference, 47 goals scored and only 23 conceded. It was great!

Finances | Transfers

Look at how much money we have! Nearly £200k in the bank now and we are turning a profit now that we are league cup champions and the attendances have shot up to 2000 per game.

We signed a new left back from Honduras who is quite good but he is a little injury prone.

Key Players

1. Roberto Yalta. 19 out of 22 league games this season, 8 goals and 8 assists. He also got another 6 in the cup and got an average rating of 7.5!

2. Eric Cousins. Three times now! 16 appearances this season, 30 caps now. He is getting slightly better and a solid player in my defence.

3. Diego Davila. The striker who came in half way through the season, he scored 13 in 14 appearances and he is only getting better.

If you want any more screenshots then just ask me.

While this development work is undertaken the club will ground-share with KFK at KFK Stadium.

Don't think sharing your unbuilt ground with yourself is the way forward personally, but maybe I'm old fashioned

Season 9 Prevue - Urvalsdeild:

Results | Expectations | Media Expectations

We sucked in the friendlies at the end of last season, we should have done better. No other way the put it.

I was tempted by mid table but I didn't want to push it and see myself sacked as this club is starting to show it's potential. The media still hate me but that's expected.

Finances | Transfers

£200k in the bank, however now the loan repayments have started £14k a month will be painful. I worked out that the total cost of this loan will be £2.4m, £1m more than the loan itself!

We made no transfers, instead I spent the money bulking up my back room.

Squad

After last seasons cup runs I think that we stand an ok chance, the team is good and I'm looking forward to how they do.

Key Signings

None.

Season 9 January February and March Update - Urvalsdeild:

Results | Finances

I great start to the season as we went unbeaten in our group and unbeaten in our friendlies. The moral in the squad is running high and it's feeling good.

Still £200k in the bank and we are still just about making a profit even with the loan repayment.

Transfers | Squad

No transfers, a young squad. I can't really find any players that are better than my current players.

Flamers

**RichG** · 07-02-2011 09:38

Gratz on winning the cup mate. Always nice to pick up silverware.

What's your current capacity? Is the new stadium going to give you much more?

I wonder if ticket prices will hike up in the new stadium being better facilities. Might be worth making a note of the current ones. What's your average attendance now?

**Flamers** · 07-02-2011 10:26

Current Capacity: 1500 seated 2500 total
Ticket price: £18.50 (most expensive in Iceland)
Season Ticket Price: £83.50 (Most expensive in Iceland)
Average attendance: 2300

Flamers

**deadfncat** · 07-02-2011 10:46

new stadium will be fun. I just moved into mine
Hows thte season progressing?

**Flamers** · 07-02-2011 10:49

Well

I'm not giving anything away but the update should come soon

Flamers

**RichG** · 07-02-2011 12:45

so you should get at least 4,000 in the new stadium then so double income.

I had that in my Pro Vercelli save. We had the highest ticket prices in Italy by a mile. We were nearly double the rest. It was insane. It was way more beneficial to not have season ticket holders as that was almost 50% cheaper lol it was something like 100 Euro's by the end to watch a game. But we were worth it

Double income should be a nice boost

**Flamers** · 07-02-2011 13:03

I can't wait for it, the club will be rolling in it which will be nice!

Flamers

**AndrewFM** · 07-02-2011 15:38

The new stadium should help you massively. I'm looking at moving to Iceland in my game as well :P Is it worth it?

**Flamers** · 07-02-2011 15:51

Season 9 July Half Season Update - Urvalsdeild:

Results | League Table

As you can see we are unbeaten this season. A few too many draws but we are still getting plenty of wins!

If you look you can see that we defended our Deildabikar crown with a 2-1 comeback against KB.

We have simply been cracking in the league. We are sitting 3rd after 9 games which is more than I could have asked for. My goal now is to keep pushing and try and get a Europe place, preferably win the league and get a Champions League place. One of the teams that is playing in the EURO Cup was 11th sacked their manager and offered me the job, it was a huge transfer budget but I have a much better squad here.

Finances | Transfers

£400k in the bank, that should hopefully mean a facilities upgrade which it vitally needed.

We made 1 transfer, a Chilean on a free to cover DL as some of the runs of games are hard at the start of the season.

Any information you want then just ask.

Season 9 Review - Uravlsdeild:

Results | League Table

Wow, that season was insane. I don't know what to say. The best way for you to get an idea is just to look at the image yourself. We went on an unbeaten run at the start of the season that lasted for over 20 games!

You would think a 14-7-1 record would win the league. How about a +28 goal difference. No, I lost it by 1 point and 2 goal difference. We were always up there, always challenging but Breioablik never slipped up.

Finances | Transfers

£250k in the bank now, this is before we get our friendly money!

A few backup players brought in a loan with a £100k future fee.

Key Players

1. Roberto Yalta. Got himself quite a few yellows this season, mainly for diving. But 7 goals and 7 assists, he is one of my best players and will go down in club history I'm sure. He is already Favoured Personnel.

2. Diego Davila. What can I say about this kid, 15 finishing and 17 penalty taking. He also has the speed to break defences he is wonderful.

3. Rafael Claro. First time in a little while a keeper has got on here 19 appearances, 15 conceded and 8 clean sheets. I have a strange feeling that when he gets Icelandic nationality he might end up getting a couple of call ups.

If you want any more screenshots then just ask me.

Season 10 Prevue - Urvalsdeild:

Results | Expectations | Media Expectations

We played well in the friendlies. It gave me a chance to see how good some of my new signings where and they seem to be a very good standard which pleases me.

I told the board I could challenge for title as I wanted a nice big wage budget, I honestly think we can do it. The media also think that we have a chance, giving us better odds than 5 times champions Fram!

Finances | Transfers

£300k in the bank this season and the board still won't let me have new facilities! The kitty was helped with a big transfer though.

That big transfer was one of my right wingers, he went for £20k up front and £2k per league appearance for the first 10 games. In return I brought some more midfielders in from Africa on £40 p/w!

Squad

As you can see by the amount of stars it's a good squad. Note the lack of Icelandics except those needed for Europe.

Key Signings

1. Matin Hoy. Good stamina, decent speed and 16 tackling. Natural at bottom left back and centre back, competent at right back. Simply he is a wonderful player.

2. Julio Cesar. Although he is a natural striker having only 12 finishing puts me off putting him there. Instead I;m retraining him as a MC where he can play a Advanced Playmaker role while should suit him to the ground!

3. Leonel Baiao. He is on £50 p/w but a good winger!

If you want any more screenshots then just ask me.

Season 10 January February and March Update - Urvalsdeild:

Results | Finances

We can't go unbeaten all season.. It was a cracking game though and on the day they did honestly play better so I can't really do much about it. Other than that 1 minor blip we had a good pre season and cup group.

We have plenty in the bank. The club is now valued at a huge £1.3m up from £6k just 10 years ago, although we have £1.4m of debt. This makes us the 7th most valuable club in Iceland! If we can keep turning a profit then I see no reason why we can't keep climbing.

Transfers | Squad

Not really much to note in my transfers, they seem to be gelling well into my squad which is good.

The squad has 14 nationalities, 2 current internationals, 1 under 23 international, 3 under 21 internationals and 1 under 20 international.

Season 10 July Half Season Update - Urvalsdeild:

Results | League Table

Are record isn't quite as good this season, we seem to be slightly less consistent but we are still a good team. Our next games are against Cork from Ireland.

We are still sitting second though and hopefully we can push forward and get the top spot.

Finances | Transfers

We now have over £500k in the bank which is wonderful, we are also turning over a big profit every month with an average attendance of over 4300!

I have got some transfers arranged for the end of there contracts which is in September.

Any information you want then just ask.

**Flamers** · 15-02-2011 17:49

Season 10 Review - Uravlsdeild:

Results | League Table

We lost a lot more this season, often at key times. The cup final loss was a bit annoying but I managed to get over it. As you can see we came incredibly close to doing the domestic triple, hopefully we can manage it next season.

In Europe we managed to hammer Cork city 5-0 on aggregate then went to Austria and got a respectable 2-2 draw however we fell apart at home and lost 2-0.

Finances | Transfers

*Cough* I'm rich *Cough* We now have over £1m in the bank! Each home game we get about £50k in gate receipts and with £156k from Europe for appearing it was good!

We also made the biggest transfer of my career, £150k for D RLC Martin Hoy. He was a real star at the club and when the £100k offer came in I made it up to £150k with a 35% next transfer clause.

Key Players

1. Morten Thomsen. He scored 14 times this season, mainly at key points which greatly helped our campaign.

2. Leonel Baiao. A great AML, he doesn't score much and got a few too many cards but I can see him getting better, at 22 he already has 2 caps under his belt

3. Roberto Yalta. Another fine season for the AMR but loads of cards disappointed me. I really hope that he gets picked for the national teams as he is working hard and deserves it.

If you want any more screenshots then just ask me.

Really unlucky on missing out on 2 trophies.

On a more positive note you have lots of moneys \o/

Don't go wasting it

**Flamers** · 15-02-2011 23:37

I wish.. My board wont let me upgrade anything...

**GioGio85** · 15-02-2011 23:40

I like the look of your 2 wingers. Are you going to be able to spend the dosh you have now got at the club?

**Flamers** · 15-02-2011 23:42

They are great wingers for my level and I am incredibly happy with them. I wish I could spend it...

Flamers

**AndrewFM** · 16-02-2011 00:02

Hard luck in the league, one more win and it would have been secured! There's always next season I suppose

Do you think you may have a chance at the Euro Cup group stage?

**Flamers** · 16-02-2011 00:03

With the right draw then yes, we were unlucky at home and played badly. The next team was a team from Greece who we could have stood half a chance against. After that it would have been hard but we could have tried.

OHHHHH have I been there. Still am, as a matter of fact!

**RichG** · 16-02-2011 08:07

you are rich now Flamers but European football will cripple your wages as your players demand more. And you have bonuses to pay out as well.

£50k a game wont be much in a years time

KUTGW lets hope you can win the league next year.

**Flamers** · 16-02-2011 10:03

They aren't moaning to much as we are winning things which keeps them happy and I signed most of them on 5 year contracts last season

Flamers

**AK22** · 16-02-2011 10:35

Good job getting into Europe. League champions next year then?!

**Flamers** · 16-02-2011 11:08

I hope so, still only 1 places for CL though which makes it hard...
