yugo23 Posted July 16, 2012 Share Posted July 16, 2012 How on Earth did Glentoran get French team in EL qualifiers? It must have been Lorient's first year in Europe. Really unlucky. I believe that here is where detail level helps. I am sure that Glentoran's squad is better, but Lorient as a French team should still have quite high reputation.

dafuge Posted July 16, 2012 Author Share Posted July 16, 2012 How on Earth did Glentoran get French team in EL qualifiers? It must have been Lorient's first year in Europe. Really unlucky. I believe that here is where detail level helps. I am sure that Glentoran's squad is better, but Lorient as a French team should still have quite high reputation. It was Lorient's second appearance, after making the group stage in 2053. The squads are actually quite close at the moment, but Glentoran (4*/continental) seem to have a higher reputation than Lorient (3*/national), so it looks like they just got unlucky and had a couple of bad games. That all suggests that increasing the detail levels could actually make it harder for them. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

dafuge Posted July 19, 2012 Author Share Posted July 19, 2012 Bourneview Young Men - Carling Premiership - 2062/63 Things were really picking up for Northern Ireland as we looked to reclaim that fourth Champions League spot. League Table Glentoran seem to be in a bit of financial trouble, which could explain their poor performance. Domestic Cups - straight wins. UEFA Super Cup - should have won, but didn't. FIFA Club World Cup - we annihilated them. UEFA Champions League - a pretty easy run, ending in another classic final against Barcelona. Glentoran in Europe - not a bad season, losing narrowly to a strong Man City side. Linfield in Europe - oops. Tobermore in Europe - a great run in the group stage, followed by the demolition of Inter and a close loss to Barcelona. Squad - there are some weak spots, but this is a great squad. Transfers - another big profit made. Premiership Transfers - we dominated it, apart from the big sale by Glentoran. Key Player Profiles: Marcus Bickerstaff - another bad injury, but he returned in style. Kamil Moreau - these were the goals I splashed out for. Simon Monteil - superb stuff from the midfielder. Carlos Goossens - he's finally settled into the supporting striker role. Ibán - great once again.

dafuge Posted July 22, 2012 Author Share Posted July 22, 2012 Bourneview Young Men - Carling Premiership - 2063/64 With the news that an extra team will be in the Champions League, things are really getting interesting in Northern Ireland. League Table The rich clubs really made their mark, with Glentoran missing out on that extra Champions League spot. Domestic Cups - straight wins. UEFA Super Cup - we came back to win. FIFA Club World Cup - fairly one sided. UEFA Champions League - we had a couple of bad games, but we made our way to the final which was a third consecutive thrilling win over Barcelona. Glentoran in Europe - poor. Linfield in Europe - not bad, but they struggled against the top teams. Tobermore in Europe - same as Linfield really, they did well but lost to the big sides. Newry in Europe - a decent run for a club on the up. Squad - there's still a few gaps, but this is a great squad. Transfers - we made a huge profit as we cleared out some of the older and unhappy players. Premiership Transfers - Tobermore were spending quite a bit. Key Player Profiles: Marcus Bickerstaff - not his best season, that target of 1000 is looking unlikely now. Should I drop him? Kamil Moreau - decent, but he could score a lot more if given the chance. Gabriel Romito - loads of assists from the winger. Roman Ilkow-Golab - the midfielder finally made a big impact. Carlos Goossens - a great second striker.

dafuge Posted July 22, 2012 Author Share Posted July 22, 2012 These early exits are really hurting the coefficients. I am sure that lack of full detail processing is having some sort of effect on this. I had the detail turned up last season, it didn't seem to help them out much. I think the biggest problem is Glentoran, they've lost in the EL qualifiers again this season Things are good elsewhere though, Linfield came through their qualifier and Cliftonville and Portadown have made the EL group stages. The biggest threat to our coefficients is the lack of depth in the NI league. If one one the big five has a shocker (like Glentoran) then it makes a huge difference as there's not much chance of any of the other clubs doing anything significant.

dafuge Posted July 22, 2012 Author Share Posted July 22, 2012 Glentoran have just sacked their manager after this shocking start to the season. I hope someone comes in and sorts them out, we badly need them back on form. Something else I've noticed is the number of clubs in debt. There's a handful of Premiership clubs with debts far larger than the value of the club (like this). I wonder whether the growth of the Premiership is actually hurting some clubs as the wages grow faster than the prize money? Portadown (anothe club with a big debt) are looking for a new owner, I've got my fingers crossed for another tycoon. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

sniell Posted July 23, 2012 Share Posted July 23, 2012 Just looking at the transfers for your league i noticed you sold 2 players to city for £50M each! After all your success you must have a huge bank balance. Very good read, I've been inspired by this thread to start a save in Northen Ireland, although I highly doubt I'll have anywhere near as much success as this!
