danielgear Posted March 21, 2012 Share Posted March 21, 2012 After reading alot of Dafuges Bourneview Career I fancied a crack myself. So I'm going to take a break from my other career and give this a go I started off with a large DB with just the Northern Ireland Leagues loaded, I also loaded all players from the UK & Ireland aswell as Top Club players and International players. That started me off with a DB of 41,000. I'm also using the latest patch 12.2. My Profile My Appointment Chimney Corner Preview and Media Prediction Chimney Corner's Background I didn't want to wait a season for the newly promoted teams so I picked the team predicted to finish bottom of the league. Hoping to gradually make my way up through the leagues to the top Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

danielgear Posted March 21, 2012 Author Share Posted March 21, 2012 My First Signing Released by Wigan, I've blown my whole budget on him I'm hoping to stay up with what I've got as long as he scores the goals to keep us up. May be a few more loans coming in but we don't have the funds for anything else. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

danielgear Posted March 24, 2012 Author Share Posted March 24, 2012 Chimney Corner - Northern Irish Second Division - Season 2011/12 It was a season that should of been brilliant as we were well clear of the relegation zone and we were favourites for relegation at the start of the season but in the end it was disappointment as with 9 games to go we were 2nd and faniced our chances of promotion League Table Cup Round Up Key Players Tommy Amos It was his injury that I felt caused our downfall at the end of the season, I'm Not going to play him in the cups next season to keep him fresh for the league and hope he can shoot us to promotion Jamie McMullan When I Joined he was an unproven youngster but had massive potential so I decided he would be my number 1 from the start and he was awesome just a shame he doesn't want a new contract Ryan Jenkins Mr Consistent, Never had a bad game Simon Gibson My Rock at the back and will be captain next season now he's agreed a new contract Michael McGroggan Amos strike partner ended up top scorer but couldn't strike up a partnership whilst amos was injured and form dropped without him Next Season Promotion pure and simple Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

danielgear Posted March 25, 2012 Author Share Posted March 25, 2012 Chimney Corner - Northern Irish Second Division - 2012/13 Season Transfer's In Transfer's Out League Results League Table Cup Results Key Players Tommy Amos Our Star man went all season without injury until the penulimate game but happily took an injection to ensure he played the final game. Top Scorer and I hope he can score the goals to keep us up next season Michael McGroggan The quiet one, In Amos's shadow but pops up with vital goals, I bought in 3 other strikers as I thought he wasn't good enough but he proved me wrong and kept his place Simon Gibson Captain Reliable! Rock at the back and is more than ready for the step up Dan Bennett Gibson's partner at the back, even though he's young he is a star in the making. Chris Craig Our Midfield magician pulled the strings and ran the games. Chimney's own Paul Scholes Season Review What a season! We were always in the top half, With 5 games to go we were 4 points behind Warrenpoint and on the last day we had to win and we sure did, Cups I used youth and fringe so never paid much attention to them. Need to strengthen if we are to stay up but its whether the board increase my wage allowance. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
