An undefeated month and to be honest we should have beaten Oster we let a 2 goal lead slip but c'est la vie.
Speaking of Oster they were relegated from the top tier as were Gelfie so to pick up 4 points against them is remarkable. We are now 8 games unbeaten stemming from last season and things are falling into place nicely.

Gary Hooper can't get a start because the partnership of Dalgaard and Barrow is amazing. 4 goals to each of them has propelled us to 2nd on the ladder and a dream start. Here is to hoping we can keep the momentum going and fight for a playoff spot.

TBH I feel I should have won it as I had the harder month of the two teams considering I played two relegated sides but still happy to be recognized.

They won't leave me alone now. Irony is if I get sacked prolly won't get any offers haha.

Halmstad also wanted me for an interview, no thanks.

It's getting a bit ridiculous now, getting an offer from a team in the top tier in Portugal.

Not a great month, we lost our first game in 9 and it coincided with an injury to Dalgaard. Barrow could barely get a shot on target let alone score in the two games in the middle. We were very lucky with Taarabt's late equalizer as it looked offside.
Dalgaard returned from injury and his impact was immediate scoring 2 and bringing out the best in Barrow who scored 1 and assisted another.

Still in the playoff spot but another lean month and I can quite easily fall right out.

I've resigned some players on lower wages so I have gone from 800 per week in the red to about 250 now. Still leaking money but a few older players are leaving at the end of the season and hopefully we get promotion.

Our worst month this season and sees us drop right down the table. We should really be beating Brage and GAIS and I can't really explain what is going on. I have been in this position before however and all it takes is one small tweak of a tactic or a player moved around and we bounce right back so here is to hoping we can turn this around and quick.

A poor start and finish to the month. We went 3-0 down against Ljungskile and missed a penalty before fighting our way back but left it too late. I made some small tweaks, nothing major and we picked up wins in our next 3 games although have all 3 goals against Utsikten scored by defenders didn't fill me with confidence and our lack of ability to find the net more then once in the next two had me nervous. We were totally outplayed by Varnamo in what was a game we should have won easily going by pre match expectations.

Still hanging around the playoff spot and with 12 games to go we have seen what a few dropped points can do to ladder position so we need to keep focused and keep winning.

He whinged, I told him we needed to make a change in the final third (we needed a goal) he kept whinging wouldn't drop it so now he is on the unwanted list.

Solid enough. Very close table, hopefully you can build on the pretty good form and claim a playoff spot (or why not direct promotion?).
A rotten Barrow, it seems.

No plans on leaving just yet. Hurry up and offer me a new contract

Lol Itchy rotten indeed, can't get rid of him though. Might just have to leave him on the side of the road somewhere.

Thanks Cymro really enjoying this and all the struggles that come with it.
