Makoto Nakamura Posted September 7, 2016 Author Share Posted September 7, 2016 Skonto FC is a Latvian football club, founded in 1991. The club plays at the Skonto Stadium in Riga. Skonto won the Virsliga in the first 14 seasons of the league's resumption (15 in total), and often provides the core of the Latvia national football team. With those 14 national championships in a row, they set a European record, men and women's football combined, until the women of KÍ Klaksvík won their 14th championship in row in 2013. Despite the financial struggle during the last few years, Skonto is still regarded as the flagship of Latvian and also Baltic football. You all know the deal with Skonto, this is the pinnacle now, not even joking! Nikita Zuntners Andriy Omelchuk Sergejs Gulbis Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

oriole01 Posted September 8, 2016 Share Posted September 8, 2016 Wow, dream come true. As soon as I started seeing the Skonto pattern I was like, "that's so Makoto, he has to manage there". Now that you're here, it's time to win the league by 100+ points, mkay? Nothing else will be satisfactory . EDIT: Apparently you can't even get to 100 points in the Latvian league even if you win all the games, so you just have to do that and hope all the other teams draw each other for 70+ point victory. Now you have your mission. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Makoto Nakamura Posted September 8, 2016 Author Share Posted September 8, 2016 2032 Pre-Season A very, very good pre-season winning every game easily and not even conceding in what I guess is the Pre-Season Cup, we're obvious favourites to win the league and this should be a very good season.

Makoto Nakamura Posted September 8, 2016 Author Share Posted September 8, 2016 May 2032 We conceded in every game we were all over FK Jelgava in the cup final but needed penalties to win it and Dmitrijs Zommers has already broken the record for most goals scored in a season with 20 goals! The previous record was 18 scored by Valerijs Ivasko in 2028, Valerijs was the Latvian I had on loan when at Parnu in 2025 where he scored 26 goals in 35 appearances. We also lost one of our first team players but at least we got a good profit on him, he came in on a free transfer. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Makoto Nakamura Posted September 8, 2016 Author Share Posted September 8, 2016 June & July 2032 Just the 2 games in June saw us drop our first points of the season, at home as well, the pitchforks were raised! July was much improved and even though our squad was weakened we got some very good wins, especially in the Champions League! 2 more backup players join us, there are no better Latvians that want to join us as the majority that aren't with us have left us in the last couple of seasons and you can only have 5 foreigners in your squad.. Dmitrijs was first choice but he was 31 and wanted to go somewhere else, Andrejs wasn't playing at all and Aleksandrs is the rising star of Latvian football...and he had a release clause.

Makoto Nakamura Posted September 12, 2016 Author Share Posted September 12, 2016 End of Season 2032 Well we finished the season unbeaten which is all I could ask for and is perhaps the least I could ask for but it's also the lowest points total since 75 points points in the 2026 season as well as being the worst goal difference in 6 seasons as well so despite how good it looks on paper this was actually an underachieving season and after thinking long and hard about it, with the lack of any talent to come through and the 5 foreigner limit I've decided to resign. I would much prefer to build a club up than to have an amazing season but it still be bad.

Makoto Nakamura Posted September 12, 2016 Author Share Posted September 12, 2016 Hamilton Academical Football Club, often known as Hamilton Accies, or The Accies, are a Scottish football club from Hamilton in South Lanarkshire who currently compete in the Scottish Premiership, having been promoted from the 2013–14 Scottish Championship. They were established in 1874 from the school football team at Hamilton Academy and remain the only professional club in British football to have originated from a school team. Hamilton have won the Scottish Challenge Cup twice and have finished runners-up in the Scottish Cup twice. The club currently play their home games at New Douglas Park. So the team currently 9th out of 10 in the Scottish Championship turn me down but the team bottom of the Scottish Premiership give me an offer, Hamilton turned me down whilst I was at Parnu but now they're probably my best shot at bringing my reputation back up.
