Thanks for commenting Dyrim ! It isn't a good start but hopefully it can improve and its defiantly not an easy champions league group.

A decent month this month well getting better anyway !
Our first game of the month was our first win of the season we went 1-0 up early on through Aubameyang and we were really hanging on and they had 2 goal disallowed 1 wrongly but we need that bit of luck !
The next game was are first champions league group game away at Dynamo Kiev it was a dream start for us as Zouma knocked in from a corner but they levelled not long after I was going to take a point though but when Mehmet Topaz was sent off with 25 minutes left it looked like we were going to lose but we did amazingly to defend it out despite them hitting the post in injury time .
The 3rd game in the month was another 1-1 draw at home against OGC Nice we are really struggling to win at home at the moment it was poor game as they took the lead on 50 minutes but just a minute later Aubameyang rounded the keeper to score for us but it remained 1-1.
In the next game we awful really bad they went 2-0 up after just 20 minutes we did get hope when Aubameyang scored again for us but it wasent to be.
In the final game of the month we beat Valenciennes FC we played much better and we beat them 2-0 Tiago gave us an early lead with his first gaol for the club and Aubameyang scored again just 4 minutes after that to hand us a comfortable win.
Here is the table we have gone up the league but plenty of other teams have games on hand over on us.

Another average month to be honest but at least we are still in the cup and we were unbeaten in the league.
The first match was always going to be a tough one against Bayern Munich we played really well we went 2-0 down early on but Guilavogui got us back in the game but then they went 3-1 up and it looked all but over but we got back into the game again through Sercan Yildrems First for the club.
The next match and our first league game of the month was a home game against Bordeaux they took the lead through Gouffran just before half time but an excellent finish by Nicolita gave us ANOTHER draw.
Then we had a friendly game where we knocked a few goals past non league Feyzin the goals came from Reis, Ravet Caballero and Aubameyang.
Then we travelled to Stade Brestois where we played out a boring 0-0 draw I rested a number of key players in preparation for the game against Athletico Madrid the champions league.4
We the played at home to Athletico Madrid and again we scored 2 goals but again we lost they took an early lead through a Miranda pen but then Aubameyang got us back on level terms but straight away they went back ahead another Miranda penalty and then Falcao took over scoring a double we got a late consolation through Nicolita again him and Aubameyang look like the only likely scorers for us at the moment.
Next we played out an entertaining home draw against OM we took the lead from a Topuz penalty but Remy got them back level before half time and in the second half they went ahead Amalfitanio got it but we got back level through another penalty this time through 15 year old sub Arruda who got his first ever senior goal from the spot.
The final game of the month was a last 16 cup game at home to mangerless Rennes and Aubameyang really took the game to them hitting 2 goals and finally we could celebrate a win.
There is the league table we are still struggling near the bottom half of it
Bordeaux will be our opponents in the quarter final of the cope de Ligue t least we are at home
