Jason the Yank Posted June 9, 2013 Share Posted June 9, 2013 Managed to get Changwon City to qualify for the 2013 N-League playoffs. We're in 3rd at the moment, with 3 matches left, but still have games against Sangju and Gwangju (both relegated from the K-League last season, and both well ahead of us; Sangju were relegated despite finishing 5th in the K-League). Not bad for a team that was predicted to finish 11th out of 14. Think I'll leave after the season though. We're leaking money (attendances around 600) and the board are putting pressure on me to sell players to raise funds (uh, nobody is interested in our players).

Deisler26 Posted June 9, 2013 Share Posted June 9, 2013 Wow. I had my Copa Del Rey Second Round matchup with Girona and I wanted to have a decent cup run this season. Ooooooh no. It was the closest I've ever been to reloading a game, as with 2 injuries, 2 red cards, 2 players unavailable due to friendlies and 3 mistakes, we lost 2-3. Absolutely shocking Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Absolutely shocking FM has a habit of screwing you over like that sometimes For instance I hate being 3-0 up from a first leg in a tie because I can guarantee the opposition will make a real fight of the 2nd leg Seems like on the whole you are enjoying the save though Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jason the Yank Posted June 9, 2013 Share Posted June 9, 2013 Changwon faded at the end, finishing 4th, losing the last 3 matches (humiliated 5-1 at Sangju, poor in a 0-2 home defeat to Ansan Hallelujah, and brave in a 2-1 loss at Gwangju in which we took the lead early only for Gwanju to finally breach our bunker in the 2nd half). Managed to get through the first round of the playoffs with a 1-0 extra-time revenge over Hallelujah, then looked lost in a 0-3 home defeat to Ulsan HMD. Board was offering a new contract, but I decided it was time to move on to pastures new. Depending on how quickly I find a new job, I'll probably go ahead and start a new thread.

Jason the Yank Posted June 9, 2013 Share Posted June 9, 2013 Looks like I'm staying in South Korea. Just got the job at Gangwon FC (just lost the relegation playoff, so they're going down to the N-League). EDIT: Speaking of leaking cash though, their bank balance is 2.3M in the red. Some big wages coming off the books this month though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deisler26 Posted June 9, 2013 Share Posted June 9, 2013 I'm genuinely wondering if this is the one window of opportunity for us to get promoted.

Deisler26 Posted June 10, 2013 Share Posted June 10, 2013 Welp. End of 2017 and we are a staggering 1st in LIGA adelante! A full 14 points clear of second place! This team has accrued a record of 16-1-1 so far and have been utterly immense. The only problem I've found is that we have had a LOT of injuries in the last month, including long-term ones to Solvi Ottesen & Aylia Yussef, our dominating DC's. Without them, we have been struggling, as we only conceded 9 goals in 14 games and then conceded 5 in two. Our only defeat was a VERY disappointing 1-3 loss to Deportivo La Coruna. Two goals were scored while players were injured on the ground and we had a definite goal ruled out, which would have made it 2-2. Very disappointing. Gonna look at shipping a lot of players out, deadline-wise, as they're all bitching about playing time. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Griffo Posted June 11, 2013 Share Posted June 11, 2013 Coming towards the end of my first season with Truro City and with four matches remaining I have found myself in this position. 4th) Eastleigh (69) +23 5th) Weston-super-Mare (62) +20 --- 6th) Salisbury (61) +19 7th) Hayes & Yeading (60) 0 8th) Truro (59) +9 9th) Basingstoke (59) +7 10th) Chelmsford (52) +13 Not bad considering at the beginning of the season we were predicted to come last and in administration. The play-offs appeared out of reach until I had a closer look at my remaining fixtures. Eastbourne Boro (H) 21st AFC Hornchurch (A) 20th Farnborough (H) 18th Tonbridge (A) 17th Taking into account a few injuries and the large gap in goal difference I'm not sure how this will all play out but it will certainly be an interesting end to the season.

withnail316 Posted June 15, 2013 Share Posted June 15, 2013 Needed a break from being a (relatively) big club, so this week I started in Poland's second tier at Stomil Olsztyn. Managed to get promoted at the first time of asking, but I'm expecting next season to be pretty tough with no money, no facilities and a ramshackle old stadium. Just what I was looking for.

Deisler26 Posted June 15, 2013 Share Posted June 15, 2013 It's October and 7 games in, we're sitting 9th in Liga BBVA with a 3-2-2 record. I realised that I needed to invest heavily in the side to keep us up as a lot of the youth are nowhere near ready for the first team. I picked up a number of free transfers in MC/AMRLC David Silva, MC Benat, M/AMRC Serge Gnabry, AMC/ST Paco Alcacer, AMC/ST Alberto Bueno and many, many more. DC Raul Albiol came in on loan and we spent money on a number of youth players and a whopping £3.5m on ST Oscar Trejo. We lost our opener 5-6 to Malaga C.F, however, a spirited 0-0 draw with Athletic Bilbao was followed by a 2-1 win over FC Cartengena gave us our first win. We then settled into a decent rhythm.

Deisler26 Posted June 15, 2013 Share Posted June 15, 2013 Oh my... We were two inches from a famous draw against Real Madrid. Oscar Trejo's shot beat Castillas from 25 yards & thundered down off the crossbar on 89 mins.. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
withnail316 Posted June 16, 2013 Share Posted June 16, 2013 Even better, the club are spending nearly £4m on the stadium for me to play in the top flight, so I'm now totally skint. Very much the challenge I needed... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is regarded as a Truro City legend and has scored 44 goals from 77 games with 23 assists under my management, I promoted him from vice captain to captain for the 2013-14 season when Jake Ash was no longer a guaranteed starter for the side.

Griffo Posted June 28, 2013 Share Posted June 28, 2013 I think it is fair to say Andy Watkins has hit a bit of form... He scored a hat-trick only to follow it up with a four goal effort in the following game. Not bad for a guy who was in terrible form at the start of the year and lost his place to 19 year old Kieffer Moore who scored 6 goals in 11 games until getting injured and allowing Watkins to regain his starting role.

Nottingham Forest Posted December 25, 2013 Share Posted December 25, 2013 No matter how much I get frustrated by the save or how far I am into it. I still keep going back to my Indonesian save. The 2044-45 season we finished 4th and lost the Indonesian Cup Final. The season after we won the league for the first time in 9 seasons. Now usually that would guarantee you qualification for the following seasons Champions League Qualifiers but unfortunately we went through two CVAs and administration before that which meant second place were entered into the tournament. That season we finished second losing out to last seasons runners up. Financially we're £800k+ in the red again and the CVA is slowly crippling us even though we're clearing it fairly quickly.
