After a turbulent career of 18 trophies in 6 different countries in FM16; the man behind the glasses, David Nealon, has decided to educate himself (quite literally) by taking time out before his next adventure to sign a short term deal with Welsh Premier League debutants, Cardiff Metropolitan University. Formerly once known as UWIC Inter Cardiff, the club were condemned to non league football after their relegation from the League of Wales in 2001. After that, they've struggled to make ground and were down as low as the Welsh Football League Division Three (fourth tier) in 2010. Luckily, their luck turned in 2012 when the club formed as Cardiff Metropolitan University F.C. and their rise began, with three promotions in four years to get them into the Welsh Premier once more.

David Nealon applied and got the job following a positive interview.

The squad inherited needs....a lot of improvement...

All amateurs.

This is only a short term save, just to break the game in. Hopefully we don't get tonked too often.

Free kick blocked by the wall, but the follow up shot was a belter Jordan Barrow in an otherwise dismal match. Red card for ap Dafydd negated our chances of a result.

Harry Owen had a poor game of a 6.0 rating and got a little bit of stick. Woolridge I don't think deserved much criticism apart from that o.g. early on.

Llandudno fans must be absolutely livid, should have put the game to bed long before the equaliser. The last fifteen minutes is where we finally woke up and could have easily turned the game around. Generous point but we're definitely the happier set of fans.

Thought we'd suffer the same fate as the Bangor City match, on the contrary we were on the winning side and ending our win drought. Harry Owen back to scoring ways, putting in a clinical shift by sealing a hat-trick.

It may have taken us fifteen league games, but we FINALLY keep a clean sheet! Bit of tactical brilliance at half time by exploiting the middle instead of the flanks paid dividends, with another stellar performance by Harry Owen.

I'm a bumbling idiot! Leading comfortably 2-0 and had three players on yellow cards, left it too late to take ap Dafydd off. His red card completely shifted the balance of play, losing our lead and losing two points in the process. We may regret that come the end of the season.

Could have gone fifth going into December, but with Llandudno winning and Airbus UK drawing, we have to accept 7th for now. Concerned that a gap will emerge when the top half split comes into effect later on. Six points above the drop is still too close for comfort.
