    I was thinking about it, but I brought both Moritz's on instead as it was those guys who helped get us this far so I felt they deserved the minutes more. 

    I was thinking more of locking in players who can play for Liechtenstein but may decide to go for Switzerland later if you haven't played them in competitive games.

    This is the second time someone has been upset about a promise not being fulfilled, when it's something I've known nothing about. It's not something I've agreed, and there's nothing in his conversation history. He's a regular in the first team, so he's important for my plans and I don't know why he'd want to go out.

    So presumably someone else has made this promise to him. Anyone have any idea where this would fall under in staff responsibilities?

  3. Europa League 2027/28 2nd Q round

    We drew Olympiakos from the hat in what was one of the toughest teams available, so I was definitely fuming as there is no way we match them especially with first leg away.

    My worries were well-founded as we got destroyed away, being completely shutdown and only a miracle performance by Schaan, the keeper, saving a penalty and no fewer than 10 shots in total prevented this being a tennis score, 2-0 to Greeks on the night.

    The return leg in Liechtenstein was much better as we managed to get out of our half for once but our finishing let us down early before we succumbed to lack of fitness as a semi-pro side. 1-3 on the night, 1-5 on aggregate and we're out.

  4. Europa League 2027/28 1st Q Round

    Once more we head into Europe and this time we got a great draw as unseeded team, Ruzomberok from Slovakia, 2* rep side with similar players to us, can we make use of that and go through?

    In home leg we ended up destroying them completely shutting down their narrow 4222 but unable to find that decisive goal until deep into injury time.

    Away leg was completely different as Slovaks equalized on aggregate before a short burst in the second half gave us an unassailable two away goal lead and we got a third for good measure. 3-1 on the night, 4-1 on aggregate and we're through.

  5. Pre-season 2027/28

    Sometimes I think I have something awesome up my sleeve like bringing back old players to tutor kids only to realise they don't overlap a single position.

    At least the board hasn't noticed my incompetence yet as we got both Junior Coaching and Youth Rec upgrades in time for new season.  It costs 75k a month to maintain this setup, so I really really hope we can get something decent soon enough or I will go bankrupt.

    The season goals are lofty, getting through a round in Europa but for some reason they don't care about the only Cup that can give us money spinning fixtures next year.

  6. 2026/27 season review

    Yet another smashing season as we keep on improving our best ever result in the league.

    Trailing by 10 points into the winter break we found all the form in the world to snatch the promotion from United Zurich and Bruhl.  We also defended the Liechtensteiner Cup from Eschen/Mauren who will face us next season regularly.

    Once again a team effort, as both goalkeepers scored, two strikers in double figures which is great to see and the right wingers stepped up in Vogt's absence.  Only two players had no goal contributions (and they only played a handful of games each.

    Our sponsorships are now through the roof as we have turned professional, this might just allow me to sign my brightest talents to full time contracts they so deserve but I can't afford.

    In addition, I have finally become a club legend after 3 promotions and 4 Cup wins.

  7. Spring 2027

    We're done with yet another season.  I did lose a couple months of progress due to a grievous mistake but managed to soldier on.

    But before I delve into the results, one of my team's stalwarts and all time appearance and goalscoring leader has decided he wanted a new challenge. And so we bid goodbye to Kevin, 103 league goals in 256 appearances.  It will take a while to break these records for anyone.

    Meanwhile we steamed full on as we tried to claw back deficit in the league.  An almost perfect campaign that was only punctured by Bruhl spanking us 3-0 in penultimate game and they had been ahead at the winter break.  In the meantime we once more defeated Eschen/Mauren dominating them before conceding a fluke goal to make last few minutes tense but still raising the trophy after a 2-1 win.

    624090_20200918183629_1.thumb.png.7ddbc75f6cc179350275ab062d2f8358.png

    Spectacularly, our form was enough to get us promoted.  Bruhl were close but couldn't keep up and had to contend with second.  The real bottlers were United Zurich who lost 20 points on us in just 13 games. At the other end of the table it was agony for Tuggen and especially Black Stars Basel who suffered a back-to-back relegation.

  8. Youth intake 2027

    You invest in the facilities, coaching, recruitment, do you get your money's worth in the youth intake?

    It's a golden generation!

    624090_20200917094315_1.thumb.png.83d101a9e7b1daebcf58a8633cfe0852.png

    But it's not really.  We have one decent chap who is the first youngster this save not to have come from Schaan but other than that it's a dire intake.  Poor personalities and very little potential in these kids.

    The only light in this year's edition, Matthias is a german/swiss boy who seems to be your typical winger minus the flair.  Hopefully he can improve and take right wing as his own in a couple years time as my current right wingers are frankly uninspiring.
