Bedford Bulldog Posted February 8, 2011 Share Posted February 8, 2011 Good going Nobby to bounce back at the first attempt. A season of consolidation is in order. Just as an aside, can you remember what your wage budget was when you started with Newcastle? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nobby_McDonald Posted February 10, 2011 Author Share Posted February 10, 2011 Thank you all. I think if Gallagher, Lacey, Rushton and Emilsson can stay fit for (most of) the season we have a bloody good chance of doing well. All four are still quite young, especially the two midfielders (Lacey and Gallagher) so should progress well. I think my initial wage budget was around £1200 per week but I can't remember for sure. Crowds are bigger now though, hence having a larger budget. My next session will be tomorrow evening so I'll be able to fill in player of the year and best xi then.

Raware Posted February 10, 2011 Share Posted February 10, 2011 I said I was expecting you to bounce straight back up and i'm glad you didn't disappoint! Let's hope your stay in the Northern Premier is a little longer this time. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt123456 Posted February 13, 2011 Share Posted February 13, 2011 Good luck with this. The relegation was unfortunate - that second season syndrome can be a killer - but at least you bounced back up. Not that I'm getting ahead of myself, but it would be fantastic to see a team such as Newcastle Town in the Premiership . Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nobby_McDonald Posted March 3, 2011 Author Share Posted March 3, 2011 2015/6 - Newcastle Town (Northern Premier League Premier Division) It's where we out do ourselves Board: Safe mid table Media: 11th Bookies: 8-1 Season tickets: 92 (up 2) A great start - four wins out of our first five sees only Northwich ahead of us. Come game ten and we are the first team to take points off them this season. The 2-0 home win closes the gap down to four. Our form continues into Winter but it is tight up top with eight clubs vying for position. An injury hit holiday period doesn't stop our progress and we're just top heading into the New Year. But we then start slipping as injuries and a tough schedule which sees us beat two Conference South teams away in the FA Trophy before narrowly being defeated at a Conference Premier team begins to take it's toll. And we get edged out.

I have no money to strengthen the squad, but I have a solid team anyway given this season's performance. And with Northwich and Altrincham out of the way, in terms of club size only Boston United stand out above the rest now, as the teams coming down are all of similar size to the rest of us in the league.
