Makoto Nakamura 3,737 Posted September 10, 2017 Author Share Posted September 10, 2017 March 2033 Some very late goals sees us pick up 4 points as we fall down to 4th with 3 games remaining. Link to post Share on other sites
Makoto Nakamura 3,737 Posted September 10, 2017 Author Share Posted September 10, 2017 2032/33 End of Season 3 very close games where we relied on late goals again but this time to no avail and we fall down to 7th to finish off the season. Next season it's back to the regular strikerless tactic. Shows how much improved the squad has gotten over the past few seasons, our oldest player is 21! Overall Best XI 2032/33 Best XI Allan McPhee (YP14a) Ross Welsh (YP12o) - Mark Munro (YP13l) - Andy Cunningham (YP12c) - Barry Hardwick (YP13j) Adam Anderson (YP13m) - Craig Gormley (YP13o) - Josh Beattie (YP15b) - Greg Kenneth (YP12n) Hamish Dalglish (YP13g) - Alex Cowie (YP13a) Link to post Share on other sites
Makoto Nakamura 3,737 Posted September 10, 2017 Author Share Posted September 10, 2017 2033/34 Pre-Season Expected losses against the big sides but good against the under 20's. We're predicted top half!! Also brought back 2 former players, Liam made 246 league appearances and Andy made 321 league appearances for us which is a club record! Link to post Share on other sites
Makoto Nakamura 3,737 Posted September 10, 2017 Author Share Posted September 10, 2017 August 2033 Not exactly a goal fest but we're doing very well at the start and we're up in 2nd. There was one manic game though, Hermes 5-5 Ellon Utd! Link to post Share on other sites
Makoto Nakamura 3,737 Posted September 10, 2017 Author Share Posted September 10, 2017 September 2033 A busy month thanks to cup replays but we're top of the league and yet to concede! We're out of the Junior Cup though but we've scraped past Fraserburgh Utd to keep us in the North of Scotland Cup. Link to post Share on other sites
Makoto Nakamura 3,737 Posted September 10, 2017 Author Share Posted September 10, 2017 October 2033 Unlucky to lose at home to Broughty Athletic but other than that it's been a perfect month and we sit 3 points clear of St. Ternan who we've already beaten. Link to post Share on other sites
Makoto Nakamura 3,737 Posted September 10, 2017 Author Share Posted September 10, 2017 November 2033 Out of the North of Scotland Cup with a defeat against Highland League side Deveronside but unbeaten in the league sees us stay 3 points clear, but now with a game in hand.

Makoto Nakamura 3,737 Posted September 10, 2017 Author Share Posted September 10, 2017 December 2033 Mixed results with a stupidly free-flowing game against Buchanhaven Hearts, we're now 6 points clear despite the draw and loss as we pass the half-way point and Orkney really are just playing for draws.

Makoto Nakamura 3,737 Posted September 10, 2017 Author Share Posted September 10, 2017 January 2034 Terrible month with just the one, albeit massive win over Maud. We should have done way better but we went down to 10 men against Hermes after just 17 minutes but we're still holding on at the top of the table. Link to post Share on other sites
Makoto Nakamura 3,737 Posted September 10, 2017 Author Share Posted September 10, 2017 2033/34 Youth Candidates We have loads of decent goalkeepers now. Link to post Share on other sites
Makoto Nakamura 3,737 Posted September 10, 2017 Author Share Posted September 10, 2017 February 2034 An amazing perfect month and with 6 games to go we are 7 points clear at the top! Link to post Share on other sites
Makoto Nakamura 3,737 Posted September 10, 2017 Author Share Posted September 10, 2017 March 2034 After spending 11 seasons in the North 1st Division it looks like we're spending just 2 in the North Superleague as with just 3 games to go we're 9 points clear of 3rd placed St. Ternan!

Makoto Nakamura 3,737 Posted September 10, 2017 Author Share Posted September 10, 2017 End of Season 2033/34 Next season Shetland hits the Highland League!

Makoto Nakamura 3,737 Posted September 10, 2017 Author Share Posted September 10, 2017 2034/35 Pre-Season Again poor against the big sides but good against the youth. Back to being predicted near the bottom and we have no more Junior Cup to contend, we now have the Highland League Cup and for the first time in Shetland history we will be in the William Hill Scottish Cup! I released a few players and then a few players decided to reject our contract and joined other clubs. Link to post Share on other sites
Makoto Nakamura 3,737 Posted September 10, 2017 Author Share Posted September 10, 2017 August 2034 A couple of records broken and a very good start to the season with a win and a draw to kick us off. Link to post Share on other sites
Makoto Nakamura 3,737 Posted September 10, 2017 Author Share Posted September 10, 2017 September 2034 One goal will do. Not the most exciting month and it sees an early exit in the North of Scotland Cup but we're through to the 2nd Round of the Scottish Cup! Link to post Share on other sites

Makoto Nakamura 3,737 Posted September 10, 2017 Author Share Posted September 10, 2017 October 2034 Absolutely terrible month, down to 13th in the league and out of both the Highland Cup and Scottish Cup, Stranraer were the biggest team we could have faced having been relegated from Scottish League One last season.

Makoto Nakamura 3,737 Posted September 10, 2017 Author Share Posted September 10, 2017 January 2035 We climb another place to 9th but our good form has come to an end for now with the draw against Cutler and defeat away to Wick Academy. Quite a few players leaving on loan. Link to post Share on other sites
Makoto Nakamura 3,737 Posted September 10, 2017 Author Share Posted September 10, 2017 February 2035 A mixed month with 2 wins and 2 losses but we move up another spot to 8th with 10 games left of the season. Link to post Share on other sites

Makoto Nakamura 3,737 Posted September 11, 2017 Author Share Posted September 11, 2017 March 2035 Not the best month but just the one loss means we stay in 5th which is likely to be the best place we can finish, it's very close between us and 11th though. Link to post Share on other sites

These are all the players who have left the club and have been able to find better clubs, a lot of those have left this season as well after a busy transfer window, Alex McKenna is the player who's not been at the club for the longest time and Adam Anderson was a first teamer when he left us. 4 hours ago, metallimuse said: Amazing run fella and loving the thread.
