JerseyShoreDave Posted February 19, 2014 Author Share Posted February 19, 2014 Ballymoney United - Danske Bank Premiership - 2016-2017 Season Results European Competition Rankings - Down 2 to 81st! Danske Premier League Season Review - We had the top Goal Scorer and Top Assist Leader in the league Glenn Arthurs... We we also the Biggest Overachievers. New Contract - 2 years, 350/week Stats and Competitions - Portadown - Champions League; Coleraine, Glentoran, Linfield - Europa League Finances - We're broke... we need at least Europa League.... Transfers - Incoming - We got some talent in that'll be mentioned in Key Players. Particularly Strikers Sean Southam & Gerard Rooney, and Attacking midfielder James Wilson. Outgoing - Darren Coyle left and retired. Armstrong, McClean, McCusker, Brace and Donaghy weren't good enough for the Squad... the rest of the transfer was nothing more then a ton of loans. The Squad - Need to get it stronger. Can only seek players in Northern Ireland still, but it all comes down to money. Key Players Glenn Arthurs - He is the Danske Premier League - Leading Goal Scorer & Player of the Year. Our 18 year old Northern Irish Striker is the best player in the league. In 35 appearances he scored 25 goals, 1 for 1 in penalty kicks, 14 assists, 4 Player of the Match honors for an Average Rating of 7.26... His contract expires at the end of next season, so we'll try and extend it ASAP. Sean Southam - Our new acquisition Sean Southam did well for himself in his first season. He was a bit injured but has the quality to be as good as Arthurs. In 25 matches he scored 22 goals with 8 assists and 6 Player of the Match honors for an average rating of 7.54. Gerard Rooney - Our 26 year old striker is also new to the team. In 21 matches he scored 14 goals with 3 assists and 3 Player of the match honors for an average rating of 7.36. He does play more as an attacking midfielder and scores well from that position. James Wilson - Our 24 year old Attacking midfielder did great. In 35 matches he scored 11, was 1 for 1 in penalty kicks, had 12 assists with 3 Players of the Match, with an average rating of 7.00. Matthew Hynds - Our 23 year old attacking midfielder did well, in 30 appearances he scored 5 goals with 10 assists with an average rating of 6.82. He's one of the most sought after players on the team and is always in the tougher matches getting the job done. Shea Hill - Our 17 year old central defender is all the rage, many clubs are after him and he's improving well. In 26 matches he scored 3 goals with 1 assist and 3 Player of the match honors for an average rating of 6.72. Brendan Quinn - As usual a good goalkeeper is hard to find... I haven't found him yet... Our 30 year old keeper was first choice for the season. In 34 matches he conceded 96 goals, had 2 clean sheets with an average rating of 6.52. Thoughts We need money from Europe. We need a great goalkeeper. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

GD suggests that you and Portadown are in a class ahead of the rest of the league. Charging towards Europe, hopefully! Thanks! Yeah we're doing quite well, November was a great month. December not so much but still not bad... Portadown is better than us, I can except us being second to them for now as Jens Lehmann is proving to be a great manager for them. I think we can get into the Europa League next season... we need it already being 500k in the red. Linfield is putting up a battle for second place at the moment so we'll see. Next 2 things we need after money is turning professional and being able to scout outside Northern Ireland. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

JerseyShoreDave Posted February 25, 2014 Author Share Posted February 25, 2014 Glenn Arthurs had a great season - you are right, you need European football! Half a million in debt, without it I don't progress... its a necessity now... I get on average 200 fans a match and can't afford the 4k weekly salary as is. Glenn Arthurs I bought in the first season and he's progressed with the club from day 1, he's doing great still, currently the league's top goal scorer, and has the league's highest average rating Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
JerseyShoreDave Posted February 25, 2014 Author Share Posted February 25, 2014 Ballymoney United - Danske Bank Premiership - 2017-2018 December Results vs. Distillery - Solid match, Surgenor's brace was a huge help in this one. vs. Donegal Celtic - League Cup Quarter Final - The C1 side put up a fight against a not so good backup squad that just got the win for us. vs. Portadown - We lost to the best team in the league... we tried but failed. vs. Crusaders - Arthur's hat trick rocked the home crowd as we had a great victory to behold. vs. Cliftonville - Even though we lost by 2 goals... it wasn't a good performance. vs. Glenavon - we fought to tie it up only to leak 2 more goals in the last 15... vs. Glentoran - We were down 3-0 at half time, and with some substitutes enabled a comeback from behind tie of epic proportions. Danske Bank Premier League December Results - Still in 3rd place. Thoughts The fixture dates are cruel at times forcing us to not always play our best players, we're making due, but 3rd is a must for Europa League!

JerseyShoreDave Posted February 26, 2014 Author Share Posted February 26, 2014 Ballymoney United - Danske Bank Premiership - 2017-2018 March Results vs. Glenavon - Solid 2-0 win, only bad thing is Glenn Arthurs got hurt in this match, and missed the next 2 matches. vs. Grove Utd - Irish Cup Quarter Final - The non Leaguers got spanked by us, other than a single great strike by them we got them good. Noel Kennedy is showing he can play well. vs. Linfield - They're in first place, but definitely didn't play like it... by half time it was 3-0 with no hope of coming back and winning. Our next match is again Linfield as we go into the final part of the season. We have over 50% shot at European Football next season. Danske Premiership Table for March - In second place. Thoughts Youth Candidates - Not much there for the first team... We also have the League Cup Final against Portadown this month as well as the Irish Cup semi final against Loughgall as well as 3 out of the 5 final matches of the season including top 3 teams Linfield and Portadown.

JerseyShoreDave Posted February 28, 2014 Author Share Posted February 28, 2014 Ballymoney United - Danske Bank Premiership - 2017-2018 Postseason Summary European Competition Rankings - Up 2 to 79th! Premiership Review Season Summary Finances - 600k and rising... Transfers - brought in 2 attacking midfielders, a backup goalie and a good defender. Sold off guys who weren't good enough. We transferred out quite a few more then we we brought in. The Squad - This season has sorted out the men from the boys... we need more men! Key Players Brendan Quinn - Our 31 year old Northern Irish goalkeeper was our first choice again, he isn't interested in a new contract yet but we hope he does... so far 2 other clubs are interested. In 38 appearances he conceded 73 goals, had 5 clean sheets with 1 Player of the Match honors with an average rating of 6.77. Looking forward to how he performs at the European Level. Bryan Young - The 19 year old center defender had a great year for his age. In 35 appearances he scored 4 goals, had 7 assists with 2 player of the match honors. He had an Average Rating of 7.01. 10 clubs offered me nothing to transfer him during the last seson lol. Mark Surgenor - The 32 year old Northern Irish attacking midfielder had a good year for us. In 34 matches he scored 8 goals with 14 assists, and 3 Player of the match honors with an average rating of 6.90. He'll be doing well for us for a couple more years. James Wilson - Our 25 year old Northern Irish attacking midfielder/striker did well for us. In 32 matches he scored 13 goals with 15 assists and 2 player of the match honors with an average rating of 7.07. Glad he's willing to sign a new contract for decent terms. Noel Kennedy - The 19 year old Attacking midfielder/striker is highly sought after. In 27 appearances he scored 13 goals with 13 assists with 4 Player of the match honors with an average rating of 7.29. Sean Southam - The 29 year old backup striker helped us immensely in the cups. In 15 appearances he scored 11 goals with 3 assists with 3 Player of the match honors with an average rating of 7.55. Matthew Hynds - The 24 year old attacking midfielder had a stellar year for us as he was named the Danske Bank Premiership Player of the Year. In 31 matches he scored 17 goals, converted 1 penalty kick, 10 assists, and 5 player of the match honors with an average rating of 7.17.

JerseyShoreDave Posted March 1, 2014 Author Share Posted March 1, 2014 Ballymoney United - Danske Bank Premiership - 2018-2019 Preseason and Europa League Failure 3-1 Odds of winning the league, 8th place prediction Season Expectations - Mid-table finish vs. St. Johnstone - Had to use our backup team for this cause of the Euro match 5 days later, and it showed in our loss. vs. Litex - Euro Cup 1st Qualification Round Leg 1 - We went to Bulgaria and took the early lead... and before half time doubled it... but in the second half 2 substitutions came in and took the match to us... we tried and failed... vs. Litex - Euro Cup 1st Qualification Round Leg 2 - At home we went down 2 quick, it wasn't till the second half that we got our wits back and starting fighting, we got a penalty kick but couldn't rally it up to their level. vs. Ayr - Our second Scottish preseason match featuring some of our 4 new players and we got destroyed. vs. Hearts - Our final preseason match against our Scottish friends was a loss but we actually played decently in this one, Hearts is one of the better Scottish teams so its an acceptable loss given how we played. Thoughts - slim pickings as to who we could afford to come to the club at this point, we're broke. Got a bit more than 130k for the Euro loss plus nice ticket sales from Litex's home game and the 1900+ who came to see hearts.

We need to beat Glenavon by 4 goals to win the league... not very likely. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

JerseyShoreDave Posted March 5, 2014 Author Share Posted March 5, 2014 Ballymoney United - Danske Bank Premiership - 2018-2019 Season Results Stats and Competitions European Competition Rankings - The Premiership dropped 1 place to 80th. Ballymoney Ranking - Up 308 places to 505th! 2 new Sponsorship deals - 9k more a year! Danske Bank Premiership Review - Glenn Arthurs top goal scorer, and Ballymoney as Biggest Overachiever highlighted! Finances - $697k in Net Debt! Transfers - Brought in 4 guys, got rid of 2. The Squad - The Squad needs work, particularly the backup team. Key Players Wayne McClements - Our new 20 year old keeper is highly sought after. In 48 matches he conceded 80 goals, had 7 clean sheets and had an average rating of 6.73. He'll be #1 for awhile. Josh Thompson - Our 19 year old defender had a great season. In 39 matches he scored 4 goals, had 3 Player of the match honors with an average rating of 6.77. Great youngster who'll get better as time goes on. Jim Frawley - Our first non Northern Irish player! He's our 20 year old right fullback from Ireland! In 27 appearances he had an assist, and preformed an average rating of 6.65 He has potential to get better! James Wilson - Our 26 year old striker/attacking midfielder did well this season. In 33 appearances he scored 10 goals, successfully took a penalty kick, had 8 assists with 4 Player of the match honors with an average rating of 6.89. Needs to get a bit better. Henry Warren - Our 24 year old left Attacking midfielder preformed up to expectations. In 39 matches he scored 4 goals with 20 assists and 2 Players of the Match honors. He had an average rating of 6.91. He's doing the job asked from him very well, we're pleased he's doing so well. Matthew Hynds - Our 25 year old attacking midfielder did great, Hynds is our playmaker. In 36 matches he scored 14 goals with 13 assists and 2 Player of the match honors and an average rating of 6.98. I'm afraid his wage demands will be too much to renew his contract. Glenn Arthurs Our 20 year old striker is once again the top goalscorer in the Danske Bank Premiership! In 43 matches he scored 31 goals, have scored 4 out of 5 penalty kicks, 13 assists, 5 Player of the Match honors with an average rating of 7.20. He's clearly our best striker.

JerseyShoreDave Posted March 6, 2014 Author Share Posted March 6, 2014 Ballymoney United - Danske Bank Premiership - 2019-2020 Pre-Season & Europa League Results Season Odds - Projected a 7th place finish, even odds. Season Expectations - Europa League Qualifying @ $4,900/week vs. Dumbarton - This friendly was against a Scottish Championship side, It didn't matter to me what happened with it since 4 days latter we had to go to Cyprus for the Europa League. I'm surprised our backup team scored 3 on them. vs. Apollon L. - Europa Cup 1st Qualification Round, Leg 1 - The Cyprus team was expected to destroy us, but we took the early lead, and then Glenn Arthurs doubled it, in the second half we gave up 2 goals making it a 2-2 tie. vs. Falkirk - This friendly was against the Scottish Championship side was a blowout for the back up squad... didn't really care about it to be honest. vs. Apollon L. - Europa Cup 1st Qualification Round, Leg 2 - At home the Cypriots couldn't do anything. At half time the scored was 1-0, in the second half we nailed them twice to make it to the 2nd round. vs. Hamilton - The Scottish Championship team thrashed our backup squad badly. vs. Rijeka - Europa Cup 2nd Qualification Round, Leg 1 - The third best team in Croatia put up a good fight at home, they scored right at half time, second half we picked up steam, Glenn Arthurs tied it up, about 7 minutes later, he gets hurt... out for 4 weeks.... We go to Croatia for the second leg. vs. Kilmore Rec - The Northern Irish C2 side put up a good fight, but in the end our backup squad won it thanks to a brace from McGrath. vs. Rijeka - Europa Cup 2 Qualification Round, Leg 2 - This wasn't a pretty match, in the first have the unlikely own goal, then they scored to tie it up. They battered us with attacks, but we held firm, in the only counter attack of the second half James Wilson nets us the winner! vs. Dergview - The C1 side battled our backup players and did well, took us to the 70th to tie it up, we should of won. vs. Djurgarden - Europa Cup 3rd Qualification Round Leg 1 - One again at home, We get the first goal thanks to Hynds in the 34th, in the 40th the Swedish Club struck back tying it up for halftime. Taking not that they're 1 point out of the Relegation playoff this season after 20 matches, I decided to push the pressure up on them since we were at home, and did so successfully when it paid off in the 80th minute thanks to Potter's header. vs. Newry City AFC - A non league team played out backup squad for the 1-1 tie, not a good match... we're easier better quality than that. vs. Djurgarden - Europa League 3rd Qualification Round, Leg 2 - We went to Sweden and played in front of 21,777 people... no one could score. My defender Shea Hill was man of the match. The 0-0 tie means we make the Europa League Playoff to get into the Group Phase... Thoughts The next month the fixtures are crazy, its going to be a tough season for everyone. To make the Group Phase of the Europa League... we need to beat over 2 legs... Club Brugge, the 2nd best Belgium club last season. We managed to sign everyone we wanted who had their contract expiring at the end of the season to new contracts, 6 players who I'm keeping in the team are not coming back. They're not good enough but we need players for the back up team and so thats where they'll be. The 2 guys we bought are good players. First is 19 year old Trever Ferguson. He signed right after we won our first Europa League series. Ryan Burns is a versatile attacking midfielder/striker who will primarily fill the right attacking midfielder position that has been weak. We're currently 300/week over our salary cap, but it seems with enough potential loans we'll be under that number again. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

European Club Rankings - Up 403 to 384th. Danske Bank Premiership Year End Summary Transfers - Brought in a new striker, right attacking midfielder, and backup central attacking midfielder... all 3 contributed to our title win. Finances - Much better than we were, our new budget allows us to spend 12k per week instead of 5k which will be bad for finances unless we have a good Champions League run. The Squad - The Strongest ever, will need to get stronger for the Champions League Key Players Wayne McClements - Our 21 year old Northern Irish Goalkeeper is progressing nicely. In 59 matches he conceded 89 goals with 12 clean sheets for a 6.68 Average Rating. I think he should be willing to stay at the club. Gordon Beatty - Our 22 year old Northern Irish defender was our best performing defender. In 36 appearances he scored 4 goals with 1 assist with 2 Player of the match honors for a 6.97 rating, he should be staying at the club as well.

In 30 matches he scored 8 goals with 13 assists and 2 Player of the match honors for an average rating of 6.91.

Ryan Burns - Our Northern Irish 27 year old right attacking midfielder had a good first year at the club.

In 20 matches he scored 14 goals with 8 assists and 5 Player of the match honors for an average rating of 7.53. He definitely overperformed for the season, he'll sign a new contract I believe.

Thoughts Game got harder with how hard it was to finally win the league. Our weekly budget is up too 12,887/week from just over 5k... we have to perform to afford it. That means Champions League success. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
JerseyShoreDave Posted March 17, 2014 Author Share Posted March 17, 2014 Ballymoney United - Danske Bank Premiership - 2020-2021 Preseason and Champions League Results Results Preseason Expectations - Our budget basically doubled... too bad there weren't enough bodies worthy to collect the money... Turkey are the European Champions in 2020 League Odds 1-2 odds for 3rd place. vs. Abbey Villa - The C1 team beat our backup team... vs. Aktobe - Champions League 2nd Round Qualification Leg 1 - The Champions of Kazakhstan fought us hard, but Glenn Arthurs' brace saw us thru to victory in the first leg. vs. Nottingham Forest - Our Backup squad got utterly destroyed by the English Championship side... vs. Aktobe - Champions League 2nd Round Qualification Leg 2 - At home we took control with the 3-0 lead at halftime... in the start of the second half they got a brace on us but Fitzgerald put the match away in the 70th with a great goal that took the wind out of their sails... we made it to the 3rd Qualifying round. vs. Coleraine - The C1 side didn't play well and neither did we quite honestly we should of lost the friendly but its irrelevant compared to our next match. vs. FC Kobenhavn - Champions League 3rd Qualifying Round Leg 1 - We down in the 5th minute but we took over from there. Both starting strikers got a goal for the win. vs. FC Kobenhavn - Champions League 3rd Qualifying Round Leg 2 - We actually had more possession, more shots on goal, and played better but no one could scored... was a battle of goalkeepers and we somehow won. Thoughts In the Champions League our Playoff match is against Olympiakos the Greek Champions. We renewed all of the contracts we wanted except for our star goalkeeper who doesn't want a new contract... I hope before the end of the season he does sign with us.
