SnakeXe Posted December 11, 2012 Author Share Posted December 11, 2012 I'll hopefully start again over the Christmas break. I've been incredibly busy recently - I'm starting a new job in 4 months so I'm having to finish my postgraduate course in about 5 months fewer than I was expecting, so little time for FM at the moment. When I am playing FM I'm playing my Newcastle save - this save isn't very relaxing at the moment! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

b101 Posted December 15, 2012 Share Posted December 15, 2012 great read this - you're coping really well with the 10 point deduction too! looking forward to seeing this back up and running Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SnakeXe Posted December 16, 2012 Author Share Posted December 16, 2012 October 2017 Not much league action this month, a Tierney-inspired win over Blyth offset by a disappointing 1-0 loss to Droylsden before a decent draw against Colwyn Bay rounded off the month. The real action was in the FA Cup - finally! Warrington were fairly simply dispatched 2-1, Kilheeney and Ward with the goals, before Tierney gave us the only goal in a revenge 1-0 win over Droylsden. We've been given a fortunate draw in the next round - Marine at home, who are outside the playable leagues at the moment - and we're out of the relegation zone, albeit on goal difference. Everything's coming up Chorley! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
DodgeeD Posted December 16, 2012 Share Posted December 16, 2012 Must be really frustrating to know that without the deduciton you'd be in a play-off spot! But for a 'youth only' save, frustration is a big part of the fun Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

snootyjim Posted December 17, 2012 Share Posted December 17, 2012 Not too bad at all. We always knew it would be a long-term affair, and without the deduction you'd be flying. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If not for that we'd almost certainly be staring relegation in the face. Have to mention the central defenders have stepped in well considering neither were first choice last season. Still going good,must be pretty annoying that without the 10 point deduction you would be in a playoff spot. True, but I'm just glad to not be cut adrift at the bottom to be honest Not too bad at all. We always knew it would be a long-term affair, and without the deduction you'd be flying. Indeed! The future looks optimistic in any case - although I can't see us hanging on to Whitham or Wilkinson with our revised budget. If whoever replaces those two does well we'll finally have a good crack at promotion next season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SnakeXe Posted December 18, 2012 Author Share Posted December 18, 2012 November 2017 As expected we eased past Marine to reach the first round proper of the FA Cup! Hoping for either an easy draw or an away draw against a big League 1 side, we got neither - Barnsley at home. Still, if we could take them to a replay we'd make a bit of cash. What, we got stuffed 3-1? Oh well, maybe next year - and besides, we made a good £20k from the Barnsley game regardless. A very callow side got blown away by Witton in the FA Trophy as expected, but we got back into gear nicely in the league with a brace of 2-1 home wins over Boston Utd and Southport. An early opener from Tierney put us in a good position away to Worksop but we couldn't close it out, with 1-1 probably a fair result in the end. I'm starting to eye the fact that we're just 6 points off the playoffs now - but I'm also wary that our squad is incredibly thin, especially in defence, and a lot of key players are utterly knackered.

gogogo golem Posted December 18, 2012 Share Posted December 18, 2012 Doing really well in the league. That FA Cup run should have helped the finances but it's a shame an FA Trophy run wasn't on the cards since that would have also helped. You would be right near the top if it wasn't for that deduction, though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

deltablue Posted December 19, 2012 Share Posted December 19, 2012 Would be comfortably in the playoffs without the deduction, so very good season so far otherwise. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

snootyjim Posted December 20, 2012 Share Posted December 20, 2012 Pity about Barnsley, better luck next year! The cups really bailed me out a couple of times when I tried this, couple of nice draws and you're sorted. Great work in the league though, I'm still confident next year looks very bright Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

SnakeXe Posted January 26, 2013 Author Share Posted January 26, 2013 Not completely, but on hiatus for the moment. I've got really into Dota 2 so don't really have time for other games! I'll probably come back to this when the final patch is out or something. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
