Makoto Nakamura Posted July 12, 2017 Share Posted July 12, 2017 America, land of the free and now, thanks to @Uncle_Sam's awesome database located here I can manage in the USA like never before, but I'm going to hopefully explore these states using @PaulHartman71's idea of accepting every job that comes to him, I'm going to be the American 'Yes Man'. I should probably say why I'm managing in America, or where my interest has been piqued, well it's not because of the MLS, obviously that would be the pinnacle for in the game though. It's because in real life the majority of the football I'm watching is from the USL thanks to them broadcasting every game live on their YouTube channel, located here. Leagues loaded: All of the USA, I may include Mexico further down the line, I may not. Players loaded: Everyone based in North America. I'm starting unemployed with no experience, I am Hank Brown, and I am from Idaho. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Makoto Nakamura Posted July 12, 2017 Author Share Posted July 12, 2017 Chapter One: There's no place like home, so I'll start there. Canyon Ridge High School There's not a lot of information on the Magic Valley. Well, not this one anyway. This is the entire squad, we only have a senior team. Key Players: These are the 2 competitions we're entered in, I believe the Admiral Cup is the cup for every club in the UPSL, and as an aside, here is every club in the UPSL.

Makoto Nakamura Posted July 12, 2017 Author Share Posted July 12, 2017 March 2016 Well we won the first 2 away games of the season yet drew at home, but we're joint top of our league after 4 games, all teams play each other 4 times.

Makoto Nakamura Posted July 13, 2017 Author Share Posted July 13, 2017 April 2016 Ouch, that's hurt us a wee bit, just the one win over Pamperos has seen us slip down to 4th as FC Hasental start going clear. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Makoto Nakamura Posted July 13, 2017 Author Share Posted July 13, 2017 May 2016 A victory over Las Vegas United in the Cup and a win against California Victory aren't enough to stop us from falling another place in the table as we're losing the battle for Idaho dominance with Boise Cutthroats just behind FC Hasental on goal difference. I forgot to mention that Jeremy Boldt is another player that our president poached from Guam. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Makoto Nakamura Posted July 13, 2017 Author Share Posted July 13, 2017 June 2016 A disappointing loss to Anahuac FC in the Cup but we netted a cool $5K in prize money which helped to improve the Junior Coaching. An unbeaten month in the league sees us move up to 4th and Boise have now reached the top of the table. Great. One more in on a free transfer, Rudy was last at Niagara Utd and was unattached.

Makoto Nakamura Posted July 13, 2017 Author Share Posted July 13, 2017 July 2016 Getting better, 2 wins including one over Boise sees us climb another place to 3rd, but only on goal difference from California Victory...who beat us 3-0. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Makoto Nakamura Posted July 13, 2017 Author Share Posted July 13, 2017 August 2016 And then it all clicked, 3 big wins and we're now 5 points clear of FC Hasental and just 3 points behind Boise with 7 games to go. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Makoto Nakamura Posted July 13, 2017 Author Share Posted July 13, 2017 2016 - End of Season We managed to top the group and did well to make it through to the last 4 of the 69, I'm disappointed to have lost 4-0 though. In the last few weeks I've been linked with some college sides but no solid offers yet. Key Players: A real contract! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Makoto Nakamura Posted July 13, 2017 Author Share Posted July 13, 2017 2017 Pre-Season Just the one friendly against USL side Real Monarchs. This season we're predicted way up in 11th even though we made no signings, Boise are down in 59th. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
