So decided to make Swansea my last save until FM2016, never been them before so should be interesting. Are one of those sides i've always enjoyed watching them do well so hopefully i can improve them even further in the game.

Obviously a lot depends on how this man performs.

December/January/February Season 1

Had to play through a couple of months as wanted to get to January so i could make some transfers as always have them turned off at the start. As you can see we've really dipped in form but i put this down to the changes in personnel, best excuse i can think of anyway! Just wanna get to the end of the season to carry on the rebuilding now.

As you can see by my transfers i'm someone that prefers to try out different players rather than the same old well known stars/wonderkids that are guaranteed to bring success. I've already got a couple sorted that will join in the Summer too.

End of Season One

To cut a long story short we finished 11th, which is certainly below where i expected but given all the player movements, injuries and complete inability to finish our chances i guess its no surprise. We did reach the FA Cup semi but lost to Arsenal. Now on to pre season where we will have three new players signing and i can hopefully hang to those that want to move on to bigger clubs, Ashley Williams is refusing to sign a new deal and his contract is nearly up. Losing him on a free would be a massive loss.

End of Season 2

Somehow we finished 3 places higher than last season despite ending with less points, have had interview offers with Leicester, Newcastle and Man Utd but declined them all. Weird as i feel i should be doing better but everyone else thinks i'm doing amazing! Gonna be tough in the transfer market this summer as we have very little to spend, hopefully when the TV money comes in it'll boost mu budget a bit.

What are your finances like at Swansea now? I would've thought the wage budget is a bit tight with players like Jovetic, Shaqiri, Morata, Ayew and Tielemans at the club.

Jovetic was only a loan and he ended up being mostly injured and pretty crap when he did play. Here's the current wage budget.

Also got the board to purchase our stadium.

Asked the board for more transfer funds as wanted to sign Gareth Bale (only £12m), got rejected so leaked it to the press. Didn't go down too well...

Though they are now left with basically no staff.

After various job offers (mainly from shite clubs in Italy and France) i've had one that actually appeals to me.

Its goodbye Cyril the Swan and hello Monty Magpie.

£12m for Bale?!

How was that happening?

Shame to see you leave after such a successful spell, hopefully you can replicate it with Newcastle though, great potential in the club I've had a couple decent saves with them this year

You can usually pick up Bale fairly cheap at the start too, the catch is that he wants a signing on fee of around £9m, agent wants £8m, wages of about £300k and appearance fee of around £80k. Add it all up and he costs a fucking fortune

End of Season 5

Dropped off towards the end of the season as really could have had a champions league spot, though still managed Newcastle's highest finish since starting the in my first season and also reached the semi's of the FA Cup but lost to Chelsea as well as winning the Carling Cup of course. Have £50m to spend in the window so time to start scouting.
