Won the European Championship with 6 players in dream team (8 if subs included) so that's either 50 or 60 points (depending on subs)

Okay then here goes.

Firstly i decided to do the Challenge 9: France first so i dont lose 3 points. I found this challenge quite easy and in the actual competition it was made a whole lot easier by Italy, Czech Republic, Greece, Russia & Spain all not qualifying.

In the groups of the tournament no big team got knocked out but shockingly Norway, Belarus & Turkey all got through. Only Norway got through though. Overall as a team it went swimingly. Henry lit up the tournament by scoring 4 against Denmark, 2 against the Germans and fittingly he scored 2 in the final against England. In fact he scored in every game and therefore got the golden boot with 11 goals.

Points: 20 + 10 + 60* = 90 points (* Depends on wether subs count. If not then 30, and 60 overall)

Here is Challenge 1: Leeds United I sucked at this challenge so bad. I have never been any good with leeds. In fact i was so bad at this challenge by the end of it i have just broke even. I finished 7th and you don't get any points for 7th. Oh well next one.

Points:

3 = 3 points (-3 points for being well late. Overall 0 points)

Hope all that works ok. If not then let me know, and also if you need anything else. In the meantime i will get on with 2 more challenges.

Right then here are some more updates from 3 more games.

Firstly is Challenge 5: Bohemians. I actually found this challenge quite tricky. There wasn't a lot of money to spend which ment that i had to trust most of the origional players. We ended up winning the league on the last game and we also won the Irish League Cup. We were knocked out of the Irish Senior Challenge Cup at the Quarter Final stage on penaltys.

Transfer History http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v603/Watty89/?action=view&current=transferhistory.jpg

Points

20 + 12 + 14 = 46 points -3 points = 43 points

* * * * *

Next up was Challenge 4: Gretna. This was a very difficult but also very fun. As people are aware Gretna don't have very much money and this made it very interesting, but there was just enough. With some clever transfer deals i was able to bring in 8 players that helped keep us up. I didn't check the table until the league was finished so i wasn't aware that St.Mirren were having a mare which made things easy for us. We did very well to get into Scottish Cup Quater Final and also got a bit of money from it. In the League Cup we came up against a very good Rangers team and therefore lost 2-0.

* The final budget wasn't even a million, so i didn't take a screenie of it but i can do if you need it *

Points:

2 + 8 = 10 points -3 points = 7 points

* * * * *

Finally was Challenge 2: Young Boys. I really loved this challenge. I enjoyed being with a team that i could work with. I managed to sell players to bring in more players. We started of really poor in the first half of the season but then we didn't lose again in the second half of the season and finished 2nd on the last day of the season. We were rubbish in the cups.

Points:

18 points -3 points = 15 points

Right that is everything. A long update but not many more to do. Just Scotland, N.Ireland, Man Utd & Willem II. Will hopefully have them done by the end of the weekend.

Just say if there is something missing.

My results with France:

Qualified easy to the Euro 2008: Qual-table

Was drawn into the Group of Death with Germany, Spain and Portugal, but managed to get through after 1-0 over Germany, 1-1 against Portugal and a massive 3-1 over Spain.

Against Croatia in the Qtr-final, who were thrashed 5-0. Italy was the opponent in the Semi-final and Anelka was the matchwinner in a match we dominated.

In the final, it was time to meet Spain again, but this time the luck ran out. Lost 1-2.

You can join. You get a 3 point deduction for each challenge though, since you're late on them, not sure about rules, but you cant use third party editing programs, i put my reputation on automatic, you can't use transfer clauses like 24 months either.
