First game in our new Njarðvík Stadium - Feb 25

Retrain I need central defenders and i'm going to retrain this DR (we already have two good young DR's in the squad) . If he works on his Heading, he should be fine !

Wow Mavisio is a beast !

Njarðvik FC - Review Season 3 - 2024 In a very busy month we had to play two importans games against KA. We couldn't win them and Valur didn't stop winning. So we couldn't win the competition back to back. Pepsi Max Deildin : Again a very good season but our squad wasn't big enough and our 14/15 players were very tired at the end. Valur deserves to win this ! Meistarakeppni: We won our second supercup against Valur, with a first goal for our new striker Gissurarson 23B Bikarkeppni: We won our second Cup in three seasons with two goals from Diouck in extra time against FH Lengjubikarinn: This team finished 2nd on goal difference. First time we get this close to get to the next round! The only domestic cup we couldn't win yet. U19: They won the U19A for the first time in their very first season at the highest level ! Champions League: lost against Suduva from Lithuania in the first qualifying round. Europa Conference League: Survived three qualifying rounds against Vardar (North Macedonia), HB (Faroer) and Vojvodina (Serbia). Our first group stage ever ! This is were we stand.. it is harsh but we'll improve in the future. Squad Our squad get's bigger but at the end of this season our two icons McAusland and Matthiasson did retire. They aren't on the squad list anymore. McAusland will stay as a coach. Smárason is our number one and had a very good season with 18clean sheets. Steinsson 22B had a very good season as our main BWM. Diouck scored for fun with 24 goals and Hermannsson is becoming our best midfielder and player. Transfers: nothing special. Youth Intake 2024: Great intake with 3 or 4 first team candidates. Finances & Upgrades Finances: We are 'rich' after our first group stage in Europe. A very important next step ! We managed to get our first affiliate , a small team from Iceland, region Fljótsdalshérað (other side of the island). I Changed our Hoyd again at the end of this season. I had to pay 33k for it but it is an improvement. Arnþórsson out, Fairly Det. Borgþórsson in . Club & Season Facts Next Season Very pleased with our first real European experience in a group stage. This gave us a lot of money and experience. I am also looking forward to turning pro and to our new stadium. Next season try to reach a group stage in europe again and become champions again. I might be able to keep everyone apart from the two icons who are retiring and will bring three youth players through.

Club Status - 2024 After reaching the ECL groupstage, i knew that i had a good chance of getting a status change from Semi-pro to Professional ! We are only the second team in iceland with a pro status at the moment, together with Valur.

August 2024 We lost our first game at IA but with a full rotated squad because of Europe. We won the most important one against Valur. We did it ! beated Vardar from North Macedonia, had some difficulties with HB from Faroer Islands. The most important game was played at home against Vojvodina from Serbia. They have a much higher reputation but we managed to beat them at home (we played our last two ECL home games in the national stadium from Iceland). So we hit the jackpot with our first ever groupstage in Europe ! A group with three nice clubs. Can't wait to gain experience and maybe some money/points.

Njarðvik FC - Youth intake Season 3 - 2024 Youth intake preview Not a great intake but we needed options up front and we received them. Average attributes and determination wise, this is the worst class that graduated. Three new option up front, we really needed that ! With Gissurarson 24D we got a new winger and we received two strikers with Þórðarson 24G and Sigursveinsson 24J

July 2024 We are still unbeaten in the league after a 96th minute freekick goal in our last game of the month. In the Bikarkeppni we managed to reach the semi-final again for a third time in a row. In Europe we lost in the second leg after exta time , a lot of goals in those last minutes of the game against Suduva . So we were out of the Champions League, now we will try our luck in the Conference League. We have to beat Vardar from North Macedonia to reach another round.

June 2024 A very good run in the league with a few draws and a big win against Leiknir R. in the Bikarkeppni we beated second division team KV. Diouck is scoring for fun again. This seems to become a two horse race this season with Valur. They have a very good squad this season. In our first ever Champions League game we will face Suduva from Lithuania. They are a pro team but we should be able to beat them.

May 2024 A perfect start in the league and we beated non league Vikingur in the Bikarkeppni.

Youth Intake Preview - 2024 We need wingers and a striker so this could be very good !

January - April 2024 A good pre-season with a good performance in the Lengjubikarinn, we finished second in our group, and didn't qualify because of goal difference. We played our second Meistarakeppi (supercup) and won it again with a goal from Gissurarson 23B, our new striker from the last intake, he came from the bench in minute 77 and scored in the 79th minute. Two changes this season. Haraldsson 23C starts as leftback , former DL Matthiasson starts as AML and Steinsson 22B starts as BWM. This team has an average age of 25.27 and attribute average rating of 42.21 We were able to extend the contracts of some important players. McAusland is going to be a player/coach , Diouck signed a long term deal and also Hermannsson did the same.

International Duty - March 22 Waiting for the first U21 or senior Call but three of the four above are currently in the senior squad, with two in the starting eleven.

New HOYD - November 2023 This was our current HOYD , he gave us two good intakes but his preferred formation and personality/determination isn't that good. Replaced him with Arnþórsson , his JPA and JPP are lower but his determination and personalty are better. His Pref.formation suits my current first tactic. I hope he can deliver some wingers/strikers.

Key players - Contract situation Both key players extended their contracts for a very long period.

McAusland contract situation McAusland , our best defender , is staying for one year + option. He will be a player/coach. I need him because i have no academy player capable of replacing him yet.

Would be a good sign , means we have kept growing.

Njarðvik FC - Review Season 2- 2023 New kits for our first season in the first tier and Europe. Three match days before the end, we had not lost and we were eight points in advance. First we lost against already relegated Fjölir, not unexpectedly because the form of many players has been gone for a while. But then we lost at home after getting a red card in minute 12. at the end it was 1-1 , when veteran McAusland smashed the ball onto the crossbar, but on the counter-attack Fram scored the 1-2 and we got zero out of six. points.. The lead on FH was still 2 points, a win at nr.7 IA was needed. We lost again but... FH couldn't win against relegated Fjölin .. so we are champions after three losses in a row ! Pepsi Max Deildin : A very good first season at the highest tier ! But we made it unnecessarily stressful. Still very proud of our first title at the highest level in a very tough season with a small squad Meistarakeppni: We won our first supercup against IA with penalties. Bikarkeppni: We beated IBV , KA and Fjölin then lost against Valur on penalties in the semi-final. Lengjubikarinn: Again finished 3rd in the league cup group. Europe: We beated Europa FC in the first qualifying round but then left the Europa Conference League in the second QF after St.Gallen was too strong. U19: They won the U19b league and go to the U19A division. Squad We had more options this season but still a very thin squad & bench. Not sure if Diouck and veteran Mcausland will sign a new contract, at the moment they won't. Smárason is again our number one and had a very good season with 9 clean sheets. McAusland was again the rock in our defence while Hermannsson was our machine in the midfield position. Matthíasson provided again 10 assists and i'm going to put him in the AML position (now he played DL most of the time). Transfers: We lost Błąkała on a free transfer so that is why i changed him with Smárason Youth Intake 2023: Great intake with 3 or 4 first team candidates. Finances & Upgrades Finances: we are in a very good position after our first European adventure. Very good new, after our next season we will move to our new stadion with a 7846 capacity. This will be the biggest stadium in Iceland after the National stadium (15182 capacity). We have to pay 44k every month so we need to qualify a few times more for Europa. Club & Season Facts Next Season I hope to bring in three more youth players from the last intake and a lot will depend on whether I can extend McAusland and Diouck. Our poor form at the end of the season does worry me so I need to look at this further. Competing for the top four again is something I would sign up for.

Njarðvik FC - Youth intake Season 2 - 2023 Youth intake preview A very good intake again with a very good average determination and some good players with high CA already. And we welcome the first intake player with a second nationality. We got a great option for the leftback in Haraldsson 23C , a really needed striker in Gissurarson 23B and a good midfieler in Matthíasson 23G. Gunnlaugsson 23A has the highest PA and a good personality.

August 2023 Mixed results but we keep gaining points in a very busy schedule. Exciting final games are on their way. I would settle for top four, but when you are in first position for so long... you want more. We beated Fjölnir in the Bikarkeppni but the semi-final was our final stage this season , we lost after penalties against Valur. In our very first Europa Confere League adventure , it ended in the second qualifying round , We never had any chance against St.Gallen. We gained 450k prize money from this european adventure so i'm happy.
