Gendo, We're Coming For You - A Dan & Shedender BSC Succession Save

And so we should of clearly stayed at Chesterfield, we had the budgets there, we knew the eam.

Sure, sometimes you've got to take the chance and jump - I thought the Cliftonville job would've been the correct switch and unfortunately I was incorrect as we was too inconsistent and mostly lost to 'shite' teams. You live, you learn. This career is about winning trophies and I wasn't that confident we could have done that at Chesterfield.

That's a bummer, dudes. Thought for sure things would've worked at Cliftonville. And seeing that Chesterfield final position just hurts even more. At least yiou know you were the ones that built it up like that right?

During my three month stint I have failed to get a job so we remain unemployed for the time being and I feel we'll be unemployed until at least the summer. Had applied for the vacancy at Leeds (I'd assume their previous managed move to a new club) who were 5th in League One but didn't even get an interview, same at Championship side Crystal Palace and that's a shame.

The Crusaders job has become available but they've no chance in winning the Premiership so I haven't even bothered applying for it while I've also decided to remove the leagues we've already won - e.g. Conference North, Scottish League 2 etc as I don't see the point in them being loaded now - they'll be removed in the summer.

I'm going to upload the game to @Dan t'mara morning.

Chesterfield miss out on the league title on the final day! But still got promoted.

And thus, in hindsight we should have remained at the Proact.

With a three year trophy drought we were in trouble, this challenge started off superbly for us but of recent years we've taken a tumble down the hill. Six months out unemployed and as you can imagine the contract offers weren't rolling in. Eventually I found a job that did take my fancy, it wasn't glamorous but it was back to what me and @Shedender are better known for, lower league management, back to basics, the basement tier of Northern Ireland.


That's correct folks. we're heading off to Larne, the side playing their trade in the basement of Northern Irish football, so glamorous for us. They were predicted to finish top last season, however stumbled down to sixth, hopefully this year we can change that, we know these bottom tiers!


Joint favorites for the title, we got this!

First signing and central midfielder has joined the club from Dundela. He's twenty and should be first choice in the middle of the park. EDIT He left the club around 16 days later as Brantwood snapped him up.


Signing #2 has seen us purchase Brian Doyle from Dungannon Swifts, I expect him to be first choice for as long as he'll remain at Inver Park. He's a centre back.


Left sided midfielder, not sure how much game time he'll get this season.

Young right sided winger has arrived at the club from Ballinamallard, expect him to get quite a bit of game time this season.


Former Glentoran central defender Pat Forde has become the latest player to join.

One star player, apparently. I'm hoping he can bag a few goals for us in C2 and help us towards promotion.

Rubbish game but a winning start to life in Championship 2. Denver Davidson's goal on twenty three minutes turned out to be the winner.

Needed extra time to progress but progress we did, and fully deserved against a C2 'rival' in Limavady.

Made changes late on in an attempt to secure maximum points at Loughgall, it backfired and the Villagers scored a winner with five minutes remaining through Ethan Kerr. Disappointing stuff but it's still early doors in the league.

Played decently enough but not until we found ourselves three goals down against our Premiership opponents.

Easy.

Feared an upset against Bourneview (usually struggle against Amateur sides) but I'm delighted we eased through to the next round. Denver Davidson, Denver Wallace, David McDonald and Chris Faulkner got on the scoresheet at Inver Park. Our reward is a third round home tie against another Amateur side, Drumaness Mills.

Somehow I don't think the Larne support 'care' if we were 'fortunate' to beat rivals Ballyclare, we did and David McDonald was the hero with his goal on fifty seven minutes and our reward for beating rivals Ballyclare could be a third round home tie against fierce rivals Carrick if they beat Ards.

After the high of beating Ballyclare in the League Cup, Dollingstown brought us back down to earth but victory at Planers Park.

3-1 flattered the hosts as it was such an even game that if our chances had of been taken then we could've headed home from Craigavon with at least a point to our name. You know it's a sh*t league though when both the league favourites are at the bottom with just three games gone.

Three quick fire goals gave us victory at home to Queens University Belfast. We were shockingly poor in the second half though.

Didn't play particularly well but still managed to advance in the Steel & Sons Cup against Drumaness.

Created f*ck all at Limavady. Unacceptable performance!

Hey @Dan, we are going to sacked again so I really hope you don't mind. The media expected an easy home win, they forgot how sh*t we are as H&W Welders won 3-1 at Inver Park. David McDonald scored our consolation goal on what was a miserable afternoon for the Invermen.

Oh dear. A third straight defeat and I've got a feeling this is going to be another horrible stint in Northern Ireland.

So yeah, 36 people saw us crash out of the Steel & Sons Cup, 2-0 against Western Premier Division side Dergview.

That's the end of my stint at Inver Park and it's been quite a horrible opening seven games as we're currently second bottom and @Dan has his work cut out after I f*cked the team up (surprise, surprise) but I've no doubt he'll get us sacked turn the horrible form around. He'll take over on the back of three consecutive league defeats and a Steel & Sons Cup exit to non-league Dergview who deservedly beat us.

As much as I hate to see you failing, I'm delighted you're failing with Larne who I despised when I was manager of Killyleagh.

Really wasn't too motivated with my stint so couldn't be bothered to post match by match updates, instead all results for my three month stints are below.


No real form, no consistency, not sure whats going on anymore, not team we manage seem to have consistency. We picked up just three league wins from six games, losing two and drawing one. We also fell out the League Cup, Irish Cup and Intermediate Cup.


Meh

We've been brutal lately at every club we've been at. I'm hoping that'll change in due course.

Huge and much needed win against Ards but we had to come from behind to seal maximum points as David McDonald and Darren Watson got on the scoresheet but when Ards took the lead after only three minutes I was thinking f*ck, here we go again! but I'm delighted with three points.

Still planning on leaving before the inevitable sacking.

It's back-to-back wins as Robert Fitzpatrick's goal saw us record a single goal victory at home to Dollingstown.

Didn't take our chances against bottom of the table Queens. Poor result.
