TugSafc Posted November 1, 2009 Share Posted November 1, 2009 Not a great start to the league Tonbridge 0-1 Carshalton I can't find a keeper who wants to come and who is better who I currently have, its what I need asap Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carligula Posted November 1, 2009 Share Posted November 1, 2009 Carshalton early-December update: + The game has stopped crashing (after turning off all 3D but the pitch itself). + The board actually sees the benefit of parent clubs! Got QPR. - However, the 0-8 loss to Watford in the FA Cup First Round did put a damper on things. Currently 9th (I think) after an ugly start... and have just signed my very own Super Kyle Wilson.

Spurs1979 Posted November 1, 2009 Share Posted November 1, 2009 Well that was fun, just won 5-3 on penaltys in the FA Cup 3rd Qual round but when I leave the match screen it tells me we lost 3-2 on penaltys, finally get a win with my new tactic after dominating the game & then this, grrrrrrr Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spurs1979 Posted November 1, 2009 Share Posted November 1, 2009 Well I've totally re-designed my tactic from a 442 into a 4132 because my wingers were just dreadfull & I kept losing out on the wingers I wanted to sign but my scouts were giving me some nice reports on some central midfielders so opted to switch to a narrow formation and target a couple of central midfielders. After taking around 10 players on trial I opted to sign Scottish midfielder Nick Main & Bulgarian Valentin Milenov (trial screenshot below) to help bolster my squad to fit the new tactic. I also took on another Bulgarian player on trial who was a former team mate of Milenov & after he came I also offered a full time contract, left back Dimitar Ruychev (screenshot from trial below) is rated as a potential league 1 player & is by far the most talented player in my squad so far. Now to try and get some wins under the belt! Milenov On Trial Ruychev On Trial Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spurs1979 Posted November 1, 2009 Share Posted November 1, 2009 Milenov has been an instant hit with two MOM performances in his first two games which have led to our 2nd & 3rd wins so far this season, also for the first time we've climbed out of the relegation zone & into 17th place after 12 games! There is hope yet .... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spurs1979 Posted November 1, 2009 Share Posted November 1, 2009 After the instant success of my Bulgarian signings I went & offered trials to a few more in positions I was weak in, unfortunately whilst I couldn't find any centre backs (definately my weak spot in the team) I was happy with 2 of the trial players & offered full time contracts to them. In comes Right back Viktor Yanchev and midfielder Iskren Ivanov to add some more ability to my first team. Currently Hendon are on an unbeaten run of 5 games which have included 4 wins (3 in the league & 1 in the FA Trophy) to give some much needed confidence to the side after our awfull start, my 4132 definately suits the team better with the technical ability of Milenov as my playmaker from midfield.

Spurs1979 Posted November 1, 2009 Share Posted November 1, 2009 Hendon start with a Bulgarian coach so they come up in searches I do, that little bit of knowledge he gives helps a great deal in showing these players up, otherwise you'd have to go through each Bulgarian team & find them that way. Have signed 5 Bulgarians so far & can't see myself signing anymore this season as those who are interested in signing for Hendon haven't shown me much when they came on trial, will also try & a Scandanavian coach in next season so I can start to find some youngsters from that part of Europe also.
