Makoto Nakamura Posted December 14, 2017 Author Share Posted December 14, 2017 September 2018 We were knocked out even before we played Fanif so back to the league now and we're in 2nd with 3 games to go and only off the top spot on goal difference.

Sorry for the bump, but just saw this bloke was born just 15 miles from where I was born. How the hell did he go about to end up on the exact opposite side of the planet...

Makoto Nakamura Posted December 15, 2017 Author Share Posted December 15, 2017 So, I was contemplating about staying on for a 3rd season and definitely would have if the board had approved another improvement to the junior coaching and I might have even stayed if they'd rejected me in a nice way.

Makoto Nakamura Posted December 15, 2017 Author Share Posted December 15, 2017 And home I went, to Tonga, I actually set my birthplace to Pea so I'm now on my home island! Navutoka is a football club from Tonga, currently playing in the Tonga Major League, the highest level of association football competition in Tonga. The first record of Navutoka playing in the Tongan football league system is in 1975. They reached the second place out of eight participants. They returned not earlier than the 1983 season. From this time they were a regular participant in the Tonga Major League. In 1989 and 1994 they won the league. The 1994 win would be the last win for another club than Lotoha'apai United. From 1998 until 2008 they won all the titles. Navutoka have never played in the Oceania Club Championship because in the years that they became champions the competition was not held. There's no staff but apparently this guy is the best player. Aim? Not finish bottom next season. I'm going to hazard a guess that this isn't our home stadium, but here's a Tongan stadium.

Makoto Nakamura Posted December 15, 2017 Author Share Posted December 15, 2017 2019 Pre-Season Very mixed against the youth team. The odds on the left are when I took over and the odds on the right are on the first day of the season. Yep, this is who we've brought in. The board brough in a few players but I signed anyone who would join me from the national team as well as anyone from the media best xi!

Makoto Nakamura Posted December 17, 2017 Author Share Posted December 17, 2017 Real money! AS Manu-Ura is a French Polynesian football team, currently playing in the Tahiti First Division, the top football league in Tahiti. Formed in 1953, AS Manu Ura has a strong history in domestic and regional football with five league titles and three Coupe de Polynesie crowns to their name. The side has been a dominant force in Tahitian football between 2007 and 2010. The club won a hat-trick of league titles from 2007 to 2009, twice qualifying for the OFC Champions League. In 2010 the club finished top of the league table however they only managed fifth in the Championship Play-Off resulting in the title and Champions League qualification going to rivals AS Tefana. A club that's always finished in the top 5. No staff again but this guy is our best player. 16 caps aged 17! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mushtaq Posted December 18, 2017 Share Posted December 18, 2017 Enjoying this. I had a brief youth only save in the Cook Islands on FM17 and this is tempting me to give something similar another crack. It is a great thrill taking a small island club to the O-League with the (very slim) chance of a Club World Cup appearance. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
