I have never actually stuck to this challenge before but for some reason I feel determined to stick to it this time. I have loaded up one league at a time in order for the game to run as fast and smoothly as possible. For an unknown reason I have decided to start off in Hungary which should be an interesting place to start off as I have never managed there before.
So here goes, a young English manager, born in the little town of Northwich, starting off with no previous management experience and only Sunday League Experience on the pitch who fancies himself as a 'Tactical Manager.'

So after many months (11 to be exact) of searching for a possible manger job, and having attended many an interview but being unsuccessful, I received my first ever job offer.
Soproni VSE have decided to take a punt on me, and they can't exactly be doing any worse, sitting 2nd bottom of the league with only a few games to go.
League Table and Fixtures
So my first aim is to keep the team in the league and then to build a team capable of winning the division to the highest league.
tongey
I couldn't keep the team in the division and after a string of some very poor results and a horrible starting position the inevitable happened.
This is how the league ended up, a mere 3 points off safety, but also rock bottom of the league after losing the last game of the season to the team who finished above me.
Back to the jobs board and somehow paying my rent in a Hungarian shack.

A few weeks later and this happened.
YES I AM NOW THE PROUD MANAGER OF COMBER REC.
Playing in the Belfast Telegraph Division Two, I am expected to achieve a safe mid table position but I am looking to win the league of course (Maybe a bit unrealistic but who knows)
Here is the Club Information, and the current Squad.
Let's hope that Northern Ireland is a better fit than Hungary for me.

Yeah not the best of starts, but hoping to build with Comber! Thanks Dan.
Cheers Shedder, good luck in Austria, I will join you there as soon as my N. Ireland career is up.
Never mind eh, onwards and upwards (or downwards). Cheers Johno
Cheers George!

Annagh Utd (H) 2-3 League
Not the ideal start to the league campaign but nevertheless I was very pleased with what I saw from my bunch of players. A well fought game that could have gone either way but at the end of the day we came away with no points. After going ahead our defence gave way and conceded 3 goals before we could get another.
Limavady Utd (H) 2-1 Irish League Cup 1st Round
A much better result after a very pleasing performance. McQuillan scored an absolute peach of a free kick to tie the game and then a Rory Carson goal midway through the second half earnt us a win in the cup. We go marching on.
Tobermore Utd (A) 0-3 League
A brace from super striker Selfridge and a late goal from Ally Young was enough to earn us our first win in the league campaign against a strong Tobermore Utd team. A game which was all square and tight in the first half then exploded into life for us and we capitalised on their poor defending.
Ards Rangers (A) 0-4 Steel Cup 2nd Round
A fantastic performance in a game I thought would be a lot closer but, one in which we controlled. I had asked the lads to control the game from the start and they duly delivered after scoring, with the opposition never looking threatening. New boy Andy Moore grabbed his 1st goal for the club.
Ballymoney Utd (A) 4-1 Irish League Cup 2nd Round
With that, our league cup run comes to an end. It was short and sweet but I expected better against Balleymoney. After a strong performance in the previous match I was very disappointed with the showing they put on.
Ballyclare (H) 5-1 League
Back to winning ways against one of the pre season favourites for the league. An epic performance from Selfridge earned him 4 goals and an assist. He's quickly becoming my go to man up top and currently leads the way in league scoring with 7 goals in 3 games. Not to bad if I say so myself.
So after all that, it left us in 3rd position in the league after 3 games, which is more than I could have asked for. However we are out of one cup but still in another and still to enter the main Irish Cup. Lots of promising signs and hopefully we can kick on and claim one of the two promotion spots available.

Sport and Leisure (H) 4-4 League
A game that was definitely end to end, and to be honest a little disappointed that we ended up only gaining a point after we were leading with 8 minutes to go. Selfridge continued his goalscoring form with 2 more. A point gained however is another point closer to promotion and the title. (Hopefully)
Knockbreda (A) 2-1 Steel Cup 3rd Round
A tough match up against a team in the league above and I was getting far ahead of myself went we took the lead and I decided to go defensive to try and shut up shop. Big mistake as they came back with a goal and then scored in the final minute of the game which was a real killer. Good performance however.
Lurgan Celtic (A) 0-6 League
A fantastic performance once again in the league, and we looked awesome both in defence and up top. Not much more to say about this game but we were by far the better team. 3 points well earned.
Glebe (A) 2-2 League
Conceding late goals is something that is starting to annoy me and I'm looking to address that after another one here. Shame to not win but again another point gained. However I do see it as 2 points dropped.
Coagh Utd (H) 3-4 League
What an absolute spectacle this game was. 1-1 going into the final 10 minutes then 2 goals for Coagh pull them ahead and put them as the likely winners, but then two goals in two minutes for me and we are right back in it looking the more dangerous, but then once again a last minute goal punishes us. We have to stop doing this.
So not a bad month, but not exactly a good one either. 5th in the league and 7 points a drift of the title. Need to improve in defence and stop conceding late on.

better luck with this second one!

5 Relegation places in the league, and only two promotion sports up for grabs. A few more signings needed to create more rotation as my squad is tired.
Thanks Bukinapreto, I know it was a short stint, hoping to have a bit more success and stability here.

Tommo.
