Thebaker Posted October 31, 2015 Share Posted October 31, 2015 Th exception being Poole Town I think as they very nearly won that league last season. So I would expect a few hundred points added to their reputation. They appear to be between Frome and Hungerford, it looks like the rep has not changed. Usually 1 season is not enough for SI to change the reps of lower league unless they get promoted. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

XaW Posted November 1, 2015 Share Posted November 1, 2015 XaW - Cambridge City - Vanarama Conference North - 2016/17 Table | Past positions | Squad | Transfers | Finances A good first season. We finished way higher than I had hoped, but still I don't feel I have the grasp on the tactic as I had hoped. The team seems to be unable to stop crosses and I concede a lot from those. Now onwards to the next season. In the FA Cup we didn't get far and lost to FC Halifax in the 3rd qualifying round. In the FA Trophy only got past one opponent before losing to Alfreton in the 1st round.

After a very good start winning 5 of our first 6 games we sat joint top with magate who ended up running away with the league we stayed in the top four for the whole season but with a poor run of results towards the end of the season we could have easily slipped out of the playoffs thankfully we managed to stay in there and finished 4thFIXTURES 1 | FIXTURES 2 | VANARAMA NATIONAL SOUTHPlayoffsWe drew St Albans in the semi final after drawing the home leg 1-1. We had to do it tough to get into the final remarkably we managed a smash and grab despite being out played we won 3-1, 4-2 0n aggregate putting us into the final! Where we would play Hayes and Yeading we went 1-0 up early and looked as if it would stay that way until they scored late on to take it to extra time where they grabbed a second and despite throwing everything forward we couldnt get back into it and ended 2-1 after extra time!SEMI FINAL 1ST LEG | SEMI FINAL 2ND LEG | FINAL Squad and Club InfoSquad | Home Screen | Transfers | Season Review | Best 11 | Fans Player | Top GoalscorerSeason Division Pos FA Cup Lg Cup Other Comps Continental Comps Notes -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2016/17 Vanarama National South 4th 3rd qual rd N/A FAT: 3rd qual rd N/A lost in playoff final Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
G_D_K Posted November 1, 2015 Share Posted November 1, 2015 So here I am, finally with my first choice team King's Lynn.I haven't ever started a challenge without already having a few solid tactics so this will be an interesting one. Good luck with the Linnets! They were my 2015 team, and have managed to make it further than ever in the challenge with them. In my...16th (I believe) season....sitting 2nd in EPL (10 behind City---so won't win the league this season). Also in my first CL (through the groups, got a tough knockout draw against AC Milan). The real talking point of the team was my 1st year top grad...who is still with me and sitting on 499 career goals! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
G_D_K Posted November 1, 2015 Share Posted November 1, 2015 Haven't really found any team that has really caught my fancy this season so far....going to continue to generate some saves to try to find something. A half-dozen new saves posted back on page one for those looking for specific teams...check it out....I might have gotten lucky! In the meantime, unless I find something else in the next week, I've started an Ashton United save. I might end up sticking with them...or not...but it's a start!

Dons Posted November 1, 2015 Share Posted November 1, 2015 Grays Athletic Season Summary 2016-17 Final Position 1st Squad - Table - Graph - Transfers - Finances - Profile - Season Review The league This first seasons was an enjoyment to play. Replaced players as scouts found new interesting ones, and kept to a very aggressive formation with high pressure, that turned out to be the right call. So far, I am happy with midfield and up, but defensive mid, defenders and keepers proved hard to find. A few games into the season we were pretty much in lead position through out the season. The aggressive style did give loads of yellow and red cards and around february those penalties started to show. Lost some games due to injuries and bans and dropped down to 2nd for the first time in a long run. As the season ended, we were comfortably up and won the league with 14 points, mostly due to 2 other top teams hit an abysmal form. The Cups The Cups were a Jekyll and Hyde perfomance. Exited the FA Cup in 3rd round qual, but got to the final in the FAT. 1-0 ahead and in control of the game, a red card in the 80th minute turned that around. Tranmere equalized in overtime and we went into extra time, which ended 0-0. In the following penalty shootout, we drew the shortest straw and had to settle for runnerup. The Players Only one player turned out to be rock solid. Schott Schulton was dominating the midfield and attack. 52 app 8 goals and 9 assists. The Extras Board has been really hard to get money from. We were at a rented stadium and are moving to another rented stadium. They did however, agree to improve our youth setup, but am almost certain, low finances will cancel that investement again! Hopefully next season will be as fun as this one, provided we can improve in the defensive department.

Tecmo Posted November 1, 2015 Share Posted November 1, 2015 Not liking my chances of surviving this first season. Two best players, goalkeeper and striker, both left before the season started. Left with three players I think are adequate for this level. Told my players we'll survive relegation and they thought I was aiming too high. Going with a 4-4-2, swinging in crosses and hoping for the best. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
