daemonic Posted January 26, 2011 Author Share Posted January 26, 2011 Sun Postal Sports - Molten Spartan South Midlands Football Premier Division (Level 9) - 2011/12 Transfers Lots of players signed and even more released on frees at the start of the season as I was choosey about who got to make the transition from amateur to semi-pro. Molten Spartan South Midlands Football Premier Division Predicted: 4th | Final Position: WINNERS | Graph We were never really threatened eventually winning with 5 games to spare. The remaining challenge was to complete a 2nd unbeaten league campaign and it was achieved in style as we finished 29pts clear having scored 143 goals. FA Cup - 1st Round We gave League 2 Burton Albion a decent game in the 1st Round proper but they were just too good. FA Vase - WINNERS | Final It took extra time in the final but we defended our title without too many problems. Other News Finances Decent profit thanks mainly to prize money.

daemonic Posted January 26, 2011 Author Share Posted January 26, 2011 Thanks B.W.G, we should have gotten 150 and a lot more really but we had a 2 month run where we had a couple of 0-0's and a lot of 1-0 wins although we were creating 10+ chances every time. I changed my pre-match teamtalk to 'no pressure / result will come' and suddenly the goals flew in again. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

daemonic Posted January 28, 2011 Author Share Posted January 28, 2011 San Lee got a lot of goals but he played almost all our games so when he demanded 600p/w (about 33% of my entire wage budget) and then went crying to the press when I told him to no, I decided to 'cash' in. I wasn't convinced he'd make the next step up so he's gone to the 'highest' bidder for £0. No point allowing him upset the rest of the squad although the fans are devastaed he's gone.

The Art of Drowning Posted January 29, 2011 Share Posted January 29, 2011 TAOD - Yorkshire Amateur - Evo Stik League Premier Division(Level 7) - 2013/14 Transfers - Some good young released premier league talent there with Sunu of Arsenal, Knight and Elliott from Man United.. Competitions Evo-Stik Premier Division - Table - A fantastic easy season again, defence not as solid as I'd like though. FA Cup - 4th Round - Brave effort there with 10 men against a good WBA side, finallty collapsed in the final minutes, the last goal coming on the break after our keeper was up for a corner. FA Trophy - Final - Wembley is like a 2nd home to us but we just didn't perform. West Riding Senior Cup - Winners - Same as last time, it gives us a lot of money but it's a stupid competition. Chairman's Cup - Winners - Another rubbish thing to win. Challenge Cup - Winners - Add to the collection. Key Players Aaron McLean Geting on a bit but he performed way beyond expectations.. Alan O'Brien irish winger has a lot of experience and is way too good for our level. gary Elliott Fantastic player, don't want to get carried away but I think he is capable of performing with us up the leagues hopefully.. Overview Only disappointment was our performance in the Trophy final but I can't really complain after another great season.

The Art of Drowning Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 [QTAOD - Yorkshire Amateur - Blue Square North(Level 6) - 2014/15 Transfers Focused on bringing in good young players released from top youth acadamies, this meant an increase in the wages we were spending so to help balance that we made a profit on a few players. Competitions Blue Square North - Table - Back to our old undefeated ways, a fantastic season way beyond what I expected. FA Cup - 3rd Round - Had already knocked out 2 league two sides to reach this round and we took the runaway league two leaders Yeovil to a reply before eventually being unfortunate to lose. FA Trophy - Winners - We got our trophy back. Maidenhead were a lot better than I expected and it took a last minute own goal for us to secure the trophy. West Riding Senior Cup - Winners - Again, the same as last time, it gives us a lot of money but it's a stupid competition. Key Players Fred Hooper Youngster released by Birmingham was versatile but mainly used as a fantastic option on the right wing. Jonathan Brown Another great young player, this guy started at Liverpool but was stolen by Man City for £675k but lasted only a year there before being released. John Riley Man United decided he wasn't good enough for them but he was way too good for our level, quality youngster. Overview Seems the way forward is to get these young players in so will be trying that again. Hope to make a little bit of cash selling the likes of Mooney and O'Brien. Also am hoping to turn pro next year.

Biscotti Posted February 13, 2011 Share Posted February 13, 2011 I would recommend steering away from the level 11 version, personally, because there are quite a number of bugs with it that RTC and his team haven't managed to work out yet.

Hot Dog Posted February 13, 2011 Share Posted February 13, 2011 Appreciate that, will load the Level 10 instead, but that that still leaves me with the problem that even when the folder is created, it doesn't appear in-game - does it differ having loaded via steam?

Biscotti Posted February 13, 2011 Share Posted February 13, 2011 Shouldn't make a difference, I'm a steam user and I've not had any trouble with .dbc files.
