Through to the third round of the Carling Cup.

Another two goals from Adams and another win. Got to say the team is playing well, I know its early but hopefully this season is a good one.
The table. Early doors.
The list of all the transfers.
So I had the file over to Spanky to put us into solidly into European places.
mr.SPANKY
Fucking assholes, they injured MacGuire, the second goal was offside and well I can't really say much about the penalty. Just one of those games that everything goes against you.
mr.SPANKY
Yeah suck it you shit kents!!!! They never threatened, amazing win so happy right now

mr.SPANKY
Done it easy but I did use a full strength team. Maguire is such a sexy player hehehe.
mr.SPANKY
That's gonna hurt us.

Lucky bastards.
mr.SPANKY
Not much in terms of youth, we have the players since the blue square prem but that is about it.
mr.SPANKY
Fucking hell we throw it away with a result like this. Went overload for the last 25 minutes but as the game loves to do it's when nothing happens.

Kez is frustrating, but I presume it does replicate real life in such a way. We only have started to develop the facilities more so hopefully this seasons intake will see a couple of players come through. Would be nice to produce our own.
KEZ_7
Yeah I imagine it takes a little while but I'm jsut thinknig ahead in terms of potential for europe etc.
Is your sponsorship still fairly low per annum too? I only ever see it rise by a few thousand per season, whereas in real life the improvement from The Championship to Premiership is an immense jump
mr.SPANKY
Why does this shit always happen when I get the save?? Barkley also went off injured but he shouldn't miss the next game. I may rest him though.
Brighter news though:
I loved out first goal, Newcastle keeper comes out of the box to clear, kicks it straight to Barkley who was just about the half way mark and proceeds to lob it in the right corner.
mr.SPANKY
Hopefully we see some decent youth come through now.
mr.SPANKY
Chance to become a manager and he stays with us. LOYALTY.
mr.SPANKY
I slammed the team for this, after the 2nd went to a counter, after the 3rd went to contain. Just had no answers, we had 2 shots all game and none of them were on target.
Next up we have first place Hull, hopefully we improve.
mr.SPANKY
Played much better than the Arsenal game but let them score off a corner which we should have really defended.
mr.SPANKY
That's us out then, an even game but we couldn't finish. I've also noticed with Maguire out we struggle on the left, Vlak just doesn't wanna be here but he is our only option. Prolly look to sell him in January and find someone else on the left what you think?
mr.SPANKY
So Sanchez was suspended for this game and Marshall got his spot back after coming back from injury. He then goes on to fuck up majorly and gives Stoke an injury time winner. Sad way to end my stint and we have dropped to 8th but we can still hang around those European places I have faith.
Uploading now for itchy is it? I can't remember the new order haha.

Ye Itchy is the next in line pal.

We had those three point in a bag, but we lacked in concentration at a corner in overtime. Otherwise a good performance. I let German winger Tony Köning make his debut on the left wing in the second half.
itchycoo
A good win, in a match we controlled from start to finish. Özcelik scored his first goal of the season after a cross from König.

itchycoo
Hmmmm....
mr.SPANKY
His agent offered him to me but we don't have the money. He would be awesome on the left.
itchycoo
Benteke scored his first goal for us, and Maguire doubled the lead just minutes after that. Both goals from set pieces (one corner and one free kick) from Simsek. With Mijic sent of with 10 minutes to go we went ultra defensive, subbing Benteke with Gardiner and played without a striker. Sugiyama didn't mind and dribbled his way from own half to complete the humiliation.
However...
itchycoo
We could have won by a bigger margin, but I'll take every win. Benteke had two goals disallowed in 5 minutes in the end of the first half.

Pretty much the same thing as Spanky had with Arsenal a few games back. We had nothing. Facing Chelsea in the next match, need to make some tactical changes...
