sam97 Posted October 27, 2011 Share Posted October 27, 2011 I'm finding it really difficult in the BSP. I think Loris Karius is struggling to make the step up, so I've drafted in Jordan Archer to probably replace him. Thoughts?Karius has conceded 39 goals in 12 games, bear in mind, Yh im in the bsp now and he's struggling a lot too might have too look into a replacement but i think my defence is a bit too weak tbh so that's probably why ! tbh if you've got a strong defence then maybe replacing him is the thing too do, just dont regret it ! good luck Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

GreyedOutMan Posted October 27, 2011 Share Posted October 27, 2011 Worksop Town | Season 2014/15 | Blue Square North Table | Positions Graph | Squad | Finances | Transfers1 | Transfers2 The most up and down year I've ever had on FM. The first half of the season was pure inconsistency, followed by a long run of defeats, followed by a long run of wins, followed by a final spell of inconsistency. In fact, we broke the record both for the longest winning run and the longest run of defeats in the club's history IN THE SAME SEASON! I need to sort this out. One thing I've learned this year, though: MORALE IS EVERYTHING (far too much, really). The pre-season was disappointing, as two of my key players from the year before wouldnt sign contract extensions. The loss of Mukendi in particular was a fatal blow in many ways, and was particularly annoying as he then retired aged just 22 after not finding an alternative....!!!! In terms of the season as a whole, it was a case of as-you-were, which, in the circumstances, wasnt too bad. Even though my star signing was slightly underwhelming before spending the last 4 months of the season injured, I got only 2 points fewer than the year before, although I did finish 2 places lower, too. However, in the final part of the season, my form really picked up and I'm hoping that will carry through to next year, allowing me to make a fast start. Major highlight of the season was unquestionably the cup runs. I got to the first round proper of the FA Cup, including a win over Grimsby, then beat Grimsby again in the FA Trophy first round, before losing to York in the 4th round. Impressive runs - and nice little earners too! I'm planning on keeping more players this year as I think I have the basis of a good squad now. Three or four quality additions and a clearout of the chaff, and maybe, just maybe, I might be able to pull something special off next year. This year I only managed 3rd place in the Manager of the Year awards - given that I finished only 2 points behind where I was last year, I think this demonstrates the increase in stature of the club. Key Players Gary Murphy* - By miles the standout player of the season, and my new captain. A rock at the back. Won my first player of the month award. Matt Needham - The unsung hero. The Kolo Toure to Murphy's Sol Campbell. Not as brilliant, but every bit as effective. Krisztian Adorjan - given his outstanding attributes for this league, he was disappointing but I have high hopes for next season... Erico Sousa - Often played second fiddle to Adorjan, but stepped up to the plate effectively when Krisztian was injured. Wes Dixon - The £5k signing from Vauxhall was useless in the first half of the season but scored 8 in his last 10 games. Michael Kamau - My one and only international, the Kenyan isnt a superstar, but he's done OK. Umit Eminoglu - I have included Umit not because he was good but because he was poor. I think if he can fulfil his potential, we'll take off. (*= fans' player of the year) The team of the year The historical best XI into which ten new players were inducted this summer. There will be players leaving this summer but far fewer than in previous years, and almost none of the regulars from this year. Will be looking for some quality on both flanks, and maybe a better striker than Dixon??? In other news, Wigan beat West Ham to win the FA Cup - Yes, WIGAN. Man City regained the Premiership crown (which they have won in three out of the four years, Arsenal winning the other one).

Welsh Wizard Posted October 27, 2011 Share Posted October 27, 2011 Football League here we come! Signed a few Italians since my last update so here they are. Nicola Varischetti Davide Mendicino Emanuele Venturi Only problem is Jamil Adam is going to expire next season and he wants 2.7k which I can't offer atm likely rise in L2 as well. Got Mendicino who could step up to that role but got no other players in mind atm. So what would you do? A) Try to cash in B) Pay around 2.7k he wants if you can. C) Play and let him go for nothing (Small comp if they sign him before he leaves) Will play the last few games and post full update. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drew the Cookie Eater Posted October 27, 2011 Share Posted October 27, 2011 Drew. Lowestoft Town. Blue Square Premier. 2015/2016 Table - We vastly improved upon last seasons' finish, securing a Play-off position with a game to go, Tamworth managed to take automatic promotion away from Crewe, we faced Ebbsfleet in the semi-final, and then Accrington in the final; and this was the final result, Lazenby finished the season with 34 league goals, so I wouldnt be surprised if a league club came in for him in the summer. The Squad - This was taken at the start of the season, so there are one or two new signings there, notable players were Nicky Salter, younf centre back signed on a free transfer following his release from Leeds, outstanding season from the young man, jufging by his quality defending, I believe he will have a bright future with us, unless a big club comes in form him Robbie Sullivan wow, just wow, 26 goals throughout the season, definitely my man of the season, without his goals we would not have made the play-offs, and to think he got injured before the play-off final and had to miss out; Aaron Coleman another youngster picked up from Leeds, a very good signing chipping in with a few goals and assists, I would like to recruit a more experienced head to help him for next season if possible. Transfers - Only four signings were made, whereas a lot of deadwood were released, these were improvements to key positions though, and should be good enough for League Two. Finances - A big thank you to the board for their cash injections, I would have been £££ in the red if it were not for them. Me Aims for next season: Survive. Make some money. Improve the squad.

columbouk Posted October 27, 2011 Share Posted October 27, 2011 End of season 2 (2013/14) update - columbouk #1 Not posting pics as I haven't go the time at the moment, suffice to say it was a season of frustration. Losing only 4 games all season, I managed to finish 4th due to two almost identically bad runs, culminating in a combined total of 2 wins and 12 draws in 14 games. My defence was the meanest in the division by a country mile, however my strikers couln't hit the proverbial barn door. The play-off semi was a close affair, with a 2-1 aggregate, but I lost 1-0 AET in the final, with a 119th minute goal sealing my fate. I've already been culling the squad for a real push to win automatic promotion next season, and have brought in Tina Turner (alias Tamer Tuna) who seems like he has a history of scoring 20ish goals a season, so fingers crossed this is my year.
