dafuge Posted November 13, 2010 Author Share Posted November 13, 2010 Havant & Waterlooville - Blue Square Bet South - 2011/12 Last season I took the H&W job and picked them up from the foot of the table to a top half finish, this season I was looking for promotion. League Table League Positions Graph After a poor start we found ourselves climbing and eventually topping the table. Unfortunately we couldn't keep ourselves there as the tiredness set in and we slipped back down to 3rd. Playoff semi leg 1 - it was a great first leg result which looked good enough to see us through to the final. Playoff semi leg 2 - we blew it. FA Cup - not the greatest of cup runs. FA Trophy - things were looking great as we beat BSP Macclesfield over two legs in the semi finals, but we faced BSP leaders Bradford in the final. It was just a few days after our playoff first leg so our tired team just couldn't cope with them. We did fight back, but it was all over after the first half. The bonus was the finances, as the Wembley appearance brought in close to £500k which we badly needed. Squad - for this division we have a great squad, but we might need to add to it to avoid the problems with tiredness. Transfers - there was a big clear-out and a small number of key players brought in. Key Player Profiles Nadir Ciftci - this was my most exciting signing, and my top scorer. Kudus Oyenuga - a decent return from the second striker. Aaron Moses-Garvey - great stuff once again from the midfielder. Luke Hubbins - he was signed as a winger but has impressed in a striker role. Jacob Hronec - a decent season from the winger/full back.

With the finances sorted and the bonus from the Wembley appearance I should have a decent budget to bring in new players for next season. I've signed another one year contract, so I'm determined to get this club promoted before I even consider thinking about other jobs. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, I renewed all the ones I wanted to towards the end of the season. I've cleared out a bit of the dead wood, signed around ten new players and built up my back room staff. With the squad I've now got I'd be amazed if we didn't challenge for the title. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

DSYoungEsq Posted November 13, 2010 Share Posted November 13, 2010 What have you got in the reserves and on the youth team? How is Oliver Nicholas for you? I see he only had 20 starts for you, which isn't surprising given who his central defensive mates are on that team. Each time I've played a game at this level, he always pops up on my radar and I cannot resist taking him in. It might be just because he's from Eritrea and I feel a bit sorry for anyone from that poor country. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It might be just because he's from Eritrea and I feel a bit sorry for anyone from that poor country. That is it, the reserves and youth squads are empty. The squad was a bit small last season due to the finances, this year I've made it a bit bigger since we can afford it. Oliver Nicholls is starting to break into the first team, although I doubt he'll stay there when other players return from injury. I think he'll always just be a backup.

dafuge Posted November 17, 2010 Author Share Posted November 17, 2010 Havant & Waterlooville - Blue Square Bet South - 2012/13 With a defeat in the playoffs last season we were determined to make a real push for promotion. League Table League Positions Graph Despite a shaky start we soon found ourselves at the top of the table and pulling away. We had a little wobble with allowed the others to catch up but we finished strongly and eventually ran away with it. FA Cup - we had a phenomenal run knocking out L2 Lincoln, BSP Newport County and L1 Yeovil before eventually being edged out by Championship Swansea. It was a shame not to get a dream draw but the run did our finances a favour anyway. FA Trophy - I didn't want a repeat of the tiredness we suffered last season so I looked for an early exit, just a shame it came at the hands of our rivals Eastleigh. Squad - this squad is far too good for this league, I fancy them to do fairly well next year with just a few additions. Transfers - the extended scouting the board granted us allowed us to look further abroad and bring in a quartet of classy Spaniards. Key Player Profiles Kudus Oyenuga - Ciftci was on fire until he suffered a bad injury, Kudus stepped in and kept him out of the team. Dani Sanchez - a superb debut season for the midfielder. Luke Hubbins - has finally found his role as a supporting striker. Nadir Ciftci - still a good return, but a 3 month injury ruined his season. Mustapha Traore - the rock at the back.
