Surprising to see that Brendon Rodrigues got the fans' approval, although I agree he had a superb season overall. What a season for the Greek duo Doukakis and Koutromanos, bagging 28 goals between them. Credit also goes to right winger, Oscar Lozano, breaking his way into the first team and assisting 14 times too.

Ransacked awards night, both for individuals, team and management.
Doukakis had an outstanding season, recognised with the Player of the Year plus the U19 Player of the Year awards.
Brendon Rodrigues, also on the same wavelength, scooped the Young Player of the Season.
A stalwart defensive core allowed Mixirica to take Golden Glove for an amazing 16 clean sheets in 27 league matches.
Doriva, Raimundo and Miladin among the others to feature in team of the year, which is odd since I usually played Raimundo as a right back.

And the manager...?

A warm reception greeted me in Estonia as we smashed and grabbed an away goal victory to take back to Gibraltar. Mixirica played well in front of the posts, but Flora were firing from ridiculous ranges to even count them as shots on goal.

A momentous achievement as Jefferson sinks Flora to book a place in the next round. We're in the record books as being the first Gibraltarian side to make it past the second qualifying phase of the Champions League.

Despite Mixirica saving a penalty, Maccabi were too strong for us. Tough is the appropriate word as we'll need two goals minimum in Israel.

Out, but not disgraced as we threw the kitchen sink at them. Came close on a number of occasions but the door stayed upright.

One last stab at European qualification. Although Rayo Vallecano aren't the best Spanish side in reality, they've a player worth £15m. Putting that in perspective, our top valued player is worth £50k.

600 kilometers north to Madrid and we were desperately unfortunate. Took a gamble when we got the goal back to switch to an attacking style of play for a second away goal, but got nabbed late on. A glimmer, just a glimmer of hope for the return leg.

Recruited a few new faces to the club.

Rokas Stonkus - free transfer from Zalgiris Kaunas

https://sortitoutsi.net/uploads/mirrored_images/YnceB3rgO2etY9Kyqx7hyeAea3FZlDe5V86bJ9gI.png

Probably the coolest name I've seen for a while, shame his stats don't match. Certainly no Doukakis, but this deal had been completed before I had arrived. Saving grace really is his pace and the fact we don't have many good left sided wingers.

Jakub Jacek - season-long loan from Legia Warsaw

https://sortitoutsi.net/uploads/mirrored_images/vqR96MU70cpdNvJbY5pJ4HHBoefNcI5dA0GNuGBN.png

Promising, young, strong stand-in defender from Poland. Heading, marking and tackling all on par, mentally prudent and physically sufficient. Wouldn't mind him throwing his weight around the field.

Marko Petrovic - free transfer from Zalgiris

https://sortitoutsi.net/uploads/mirrored_images/X9PF99jXJvUYGk1r8V9fOsQMnqsQsLjOF1UG2nOj.png

Upgrading in our goalkeeper department with a controversial signing from our rivals. Could potentially blossom into a quality 'keeper. Lad was on an amateur deal also so made sense to have him signed, sealed and hopefully can deliver.

Alexandr Suslov - £22k, rising to £25.5k from Zenit St. Petersburg

https://sortitoutsi.net/uploads/mirrored_images/TVqPKpAnduCDeefc79SNNnmlgPqZ01RZCaTjrmVY.png

Delved into the Russian market with my scouts recommending this midfielder. Not mindblowing, but does have first team experience with Zenit's main team and Zenit-2 team and will surely improve under me. Bargain too at under 30 grand.

José Ramón Venegas - free transfer from Sanse

https://sortitoutsi.net/uploads/mirrored_images/3MzCsgZAPO7r4LBE6y8AxJncXomdvpsyYbufVdyx.png

Not my first choice but a handy backup striker to close games out. Composure must be improved, but his recent form suggests that this guy may have something to offer.

First of two games against Zalgiris within four days in the Lithuanian Cup semi final. Two legs are played in the semis with advantage going to us for the return fixture, thanks to a thunderbastard from Edgaras Grigatis.
