Popular Post keeper#1 Posted December 30, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted December 30, 2020 South Shields 2030-31 Season Review Fixtures 1, 2, 3, 4: Struggles for most of the season. A successful April saved us from relegation. League Table: A 17th place finish is a very successful season for us on the whole even though some of the metrics were "the worst" that the team has endured under my leadership. Burnley and Norwich continue their yo-yo between the Premier League and the Championship. Fulham, who got into the playoffs on the last day, rode the wave all the way to winning the playoffs and earning the 3rd promotion place to the Premier League. Barnsley, Blackburn, and Port Vale drop down into League One. Playoff Tree: Nottingham Forest continue their struggle to get back into the Premier League. Newcastle join them as a semifinal loser. Brentford fall to Fulham in the playoff final. FA Cup: One and done in the FA Cup as we were knocked out by Sheffield United. League Cup: Wins over two League Two teams in the first two rounds before we were eliminated by Fulham in the 3rd round.

My only complaints are: if you are going to expand it right away why not build to it the this capacity in the first place (it was just built last season) and we have play an entire home season at Gateshead. Plus this: You took out a loan to cover the entire cost of the expansion even though the money is in the bank to cover the cost of the expansion. Now, I'm looking at loan repayments of 480k/year for the next 10 years. This will cause us to sell some players in the short term while, hopefully, the long term should be covered by a promotion to the Premier League. 8 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're close enough to Darren for me With "lowest tier needs to have relegation" do you mean relegation into a playable league? For example (if I'm not mistaken, don't have game at hand right now) Peru only has 1 playable league and while there is relegation, it goes into a 'non-playable' league.

No, relegation from the lowest playable tier into non-league is what the country needs to have. Then take over a newly promoted one into said lower league. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are also improving the facilities and we finally have a youth rating of 1! The preview was promising as usual, and intake was pretty decent. Reiss Scally 37a is rated as the best one.

Popular Post JAwtunes Posted December 30, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted December 30, 2020 Widzew Lodz (FM20) Season 2 (2021-22) - Review On the pitch Starting 11 PKO Ekstraklasa – 1st. The polish top division features 16 teams with a regular season of 30 games, before the top and bottom 8 teams split into championship and relegation groups. We managed to secure a fifth national title for Widzew, the first since 1997. Our league form was patchy, starting extremely well before crashing in the second half of the season. However, we did manage to pick up for our last 10 or so games and went into the championship group with a 4 point lead, eventually winning by 8 points. Polish cup – 1st Round. As defending champions I was hoping to be able to put up some sort of fight in the cup. Clearly fielding a rotated team for our one and only tie in the cup was an error. We were held to a 1-1 draw by lower league opposition and went out on penalties - the board were not happy. UEFA Europa Conference League – 4th qualifying round. Our success in the Polish Cup last year meant we qualified for the Europe Conference League. We didn't manage to make it to the group stages but we played very well in our tie with Everton, only losing out on away goals. Our performances against Everton were very encouraging, particularly when considering they fielded near full strength sides, but Everton just managed to create a few more clear-cut and half chances. Spoiler First leg Second leg Off the pitch The board allowed me to complete more coaching badges during this season and sanctioned improvements to the training facilities. Disappointingly though, there has been no option to request increased academy coaching or recruitment spend. Our attendance was ~17.5k, putting us fourth highest in the league. During the season we suffered a few fairly significant injuries, the biggest being that suffered by our eventual player of the season (despite missing the final third of the season) M Mozdzen, a 31 CM who plays as our playmaker. Mozdzen was comfortably our best CM at the start of the season, but a hip injury (which will keep him out for 4-5 months in total) has already resulted in massive drops in attributes across the board. We have a real shortage of decent CMs and I can only see Mozdzen declining further next season. We will be praying to the youth intake gods for a CM next season Spoiler Player of the season We have some positive news regarding our 2021 youth intake (i.e. last season's intake). One player in particular, M Klepczarek, is showing real promise and is starting to force his way into the first team. M Klepczarek looks like a very capable CD and has already made 9 league starts at the age of 17. Our most improved player from the 2021 intake is Jakub Budzinski, a striker who... cant shoot. I am hoping he may be able to replace Mozdzen in the centre of our midfield in a few seasons, but certainly has a way to go to get anywhere near the level of pre-injury stricken Mozdzen.

danielclouston1 Posted December 31, 2020 Share Posted December 31, 2020 (edited) La Roda CF Season 2 (22/23) Spanish Segunda Division Pro B Facilities | Transfers | Season Preview | Board Expectations As you can see from the season preview and board expectations, we are fully expected to go down again this season and to be honest I am inclined to agree. Our squad is not particularly great in comparison to the rest of the league. Hopefully we are able to pull of remaining in the league though. I do worry about the longevity viability of this save though. We are burning through cash something awful and with no regular income and very low attendances I am worried about our ability to upgrade our facilities and make progress for the team. Tactic We have changed system to a 433 this season, I feel we need to have that holding midfielder in there to steady our ship. I have chosen to give a starting berth to both our full backs from the intake last year in the hope they can make some progression because the alternatives are also not great. Pre-Season Friendlies I was a little concerned after the first 3 games. Yes, they were 2 wins and a draw but we played teams who are currently in unplayable leagues and should have been far more comfortable than we actually were. After a small tweak in our tactic the performances and results became better and our friendlies ended with a win of LaLiga2 side Almeria. National Coaching B Despite our current financial situation the board did allow me to start studying for my next coaching badge, at least something. Wish me luck, I think we need a huge dose of it to remain in the league! Edited December 31, 2020 by danielclouston1 6 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I offered a youth contract to all until Ruffier. I need squad depth at the moment, and some have good personalities. Also my squad is an aging squad, so I need backups anyway. I know I might be throwing money down the drain but if they can develop to a 2 star CA, they can be a good backup until the next intake.

DazRTaylor Posted December 31, 2020 Share Posted December 31, 2020 (edited) End of Season Review Season 2028/29 SV Babberich League Table - We were top with five games to go and once again, we blew it and finished runners up, missing out on promotion by just one point. League Fixtures 1 & 2 - Once more we went off like a train, though Heino kept pace with us throughout the season. We hit a three game sticky patch towards the end of the season and the loss away to Heino, who eventually won the title, proved decisive. Pre Season Friendlies - Seven games were played and just the one defeat which was pleasing. Squad - I have a good core of players, I just need the fringe players to develop and be in a position to challenge those above them. Squad Dynamics - Very good as you would expect. Transfers In - None. Transfers Out - None. Youth Candidates - Our worst intake to date and I didn't sign any of them. Ray Schorea YP29A113 was supposed to be the player with the most potential. Finances - We need a takeover or something to get rid of this ever growing negative bank balance. Key Players Olivier van Brakel YP23B18 - A far more consistent season from the goalkeeper. Kyren Arends YP24I41 - He is still the main man up front, but he had his poorest season to date. Ervin Sanches YP24D36 - An excellent season from the right winger. Milo den Uil YP23I25 - The central midfielder made a welcome return to form this campaign. Ayoub Jamal YP24L44 - The left winger compliments Sanches, who plays on the right wing, nicely.

JLAB Posted December 31, 2020 Share Posted December 31, 2020 Well then, my youth intake turned out to be rather promising. The amount of players that are already 1/5 stars in current ability, which for some of my weaker positions in the team is already the same amount of ability in the best players in their roles. James Barbini is the most exciting player in terms of current ability, even if his personality leaves me with work to do. In regards to current ability, he's already my best right-back in the side at the end of just 15, which is rather concerning in itself. We seem to love left-backs it seems. Sarnelli might not be the best player in the world, but given that our best left-back has been disappointing, I think I'll take this guy, even if Sarnelli is right footed. His 20 determination is pretty nice though. Hey look! Another good centre-back! He's not perfect, but his potential makes me excited, as does his current technical and physical abilities. The fact that only his flair,determination and free-kick taking are under 5 ability is pretty exciting. Lets make him more ambitious and determined, shall we? Another striker who I feel can fit my preferred roles of a deep-lying forwards and pressing forward. He needs some work in some areas, his determination and personality being some of them, but he might be keeping us busy for a while. Another goalkeeper, we have three of them who can replace Narduzzo in the future now. It leaves me feeling rather excited. Given that Narduzzo is now 32 and that Sarpong is already our 5th best goalkeeper in the side, we can plan ahead with him. Shame his personality is so causal though. 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sn00gle Posted December 31, 2020 Share Posted December 31, 2020 14 hours ago, JAwtunes said: Widzew Lodz (FM20) Season 2 (2021-22) - Review On the pitch Starting 11 PKO Ekstraklasa – 1st. The polish top division features 16 teams with a regular season of 30 games, before the top and bottom 8 teams split into championship and relegation groups. We managed to secure a fifth national title for Widzew, the first since 1997. Our league form was patchy, starting extremely well before crashing in the second half of the season. However, we did manage to pick up for our last 10 or so games and went into the championship group with a 4 point lead, eventually winning by 8 points. Polish cup – 1st Round. As defending champions I was hoping to be able to put up some sort of fight in the cup. Clearly fielding a rotated team for our one and only tie in the cup was an error. We were held to a 1-1 draw by lower league opposition and went out on penalties - the board were not happy. UEFA Europa Conference League – 4th qualifying round. Our success in the Polish Cup last year meant we qualified for the Europe Conference League. We didn't manage to make it to the group stages but we played very well in our tie with Everton, only losing out on away goals. Our performances against Everton were very encouraging, particularly when considering they fielded near full strength sides, but Everton just managed to create a few more clear-cut and half chances. Reveal hidden contents First leg Second leg Off the pitch The board allowed me to complete more coaching badges during this season and sanctioned improvements to the training facilities. Disappointingly though, there has been no option to request increased academy coaching or recruitment spend. Our attendance was ~17.5k, putting us fourth highest in the league. During the season we suffered a few fairly significant injuries, the biggest being that suffered by our eventual player of the season (despite missing the final third of the season) M Mozdzen, a 31 CM who plays as our playmaker. Mozdzen was comfortably our best CM at the start of the season, but a hip injury (which will keep him out for 4-5 months in total) has already resulted in massive drops in attributes across the board. We have a real shortage of decent CMs and I can only see Mozdzen declining further next season. We will be praying to the youth intake gods for a CM next season Reveal hidden contents Player of the season We have some positive news regarding our 2021 youth intake (i.e. last season's intake). One player in particular, M Klepczarek, is showing real promise and is starting to force his way into the first team. M Klepczarek looks like a very capable CD and has already made 9 league starts at the age of 17. Our most improved player from the 2021 intake is Jakub Budzinski, a striker who... cant shoot. I am hoping he may be able to replace Mozdzen in the centre of our midfield in a few seasons, but certainly has a way to go to get anywhere near the level of pre-injury stricken Mozdzen.

I'm having a blast so far! But I can't seem to understand why this team did so poor last season. So far I'm all winning. And the season preview have us as favourites as well! Anyway, I doubt it'll help much in the long run. Andorra is not exactly a powerhouse in European football anyway, so this is meant to be a long term save, even if the seasons themselves will go fast. Hopefully I'll get the intake soon, so I will see what I have to work with! 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raffen Posted December 31, 2020 Share Posted December 31, 2020 (edited) Merthyr Town FC - Season 2025/26 Table | Squad | Transfers | Finances Safely in mid table position again, but struggling to find any positive development. Have a feeling a sturdier base tactic might help, but lacking central midfielders to increase the numbers in that area. Again gone a bit more possession oriented, and seemed to work alright for parts of the season. Set both undefeated streak record, and defeats in a row record this season. Our main man Joel Harvey was injured for 3 months this season, which didn't help. Scored 20 less goals this season, but conceded 20 less as well. Goalkeeper Absalom again best performer, Camden Duncan still scoring the most goals. Some players haven't developed any further this season, and are likely to have reached their potential. Since the finances are really dire now, we're culling the squad. This involves some risks to get the wages down. That means Absalom is not getting a new contract, and Simon Basset 24j becomes my first choice GK. His shot stopping is better than Absalom anyways, so think it should work out fine. Risking not renewing the contract of Ryan Richards 22c despite him being a regular at left back. His development has stalled completely the last two years, and I believe Jack French 24c and Tom Stonehouse 22m can step up. Sion Hall 23g really stepped up this season, to stake a claim for the right fullback slot. The youth preview promised a striker, and the youth intake provided Corey Evans 26a. Jamie Davey 26b also has decent current ability. Avoided bad personalities this time unless I saw too much potential, and ended up signing 8 of them. A couple were signed purely because of personality, but some I think can make it into the first team in a few seasons, with reasonable spread of attributes. In general we're not seeing any development so far. But there was a slight development in club vision , with the board now wanting to develop players using the youth system. That good development is offset by the "repair the club's financial damage" further down though. I worry we might be stuck down here for quite a few more years unless we start producing some better quality talents.
