Ross County Succession Game [FM14]

Our final game of the season was at home to Rangers and I decided to go with a young 2nd string line up with the cup final coming and because of the fact we have already won the league! I gave other players the chance:



And we won! We were very good just shaded possession they had some good chances though but Zabret in goal had no shots to save! Our goal was fantastic Pereira doing well in midfield and feeding Ambrose he could have easily have passed it through but from the edge of the area he curls an unstoppable effort into the far corner which I was delighted with! 3 players made debuts too and Mackay was our youngest ever player



Also here is the final league table Celtic finished the season really poorly and with nothing to play for and weakened side out they lost 1-0 at home to Aberdeen hopefully they take this poor form into the Scottish cup final! Falkirk and Hibernian also drew 1-1 both of them had a brilliant season! St Mirren are very unfortunate to be in the relegation play off place they scored alot of goals almost more than Celtic! And their striker Appleyard on loan from Newcastle was the top scorer in the league by a long way! But their defence was the worst and ultimately that cost them. Dundee United nearly went down that would have been a shock.



Richard Brittain had just retired and he wanted to become manager so after all the great service he did for us he accepted a reserves assistant manager post for his 1st step on the ladder!



I have decided to sign Campbell and Brogi on permanent deals Brogi has been brilliant on loan for a few years now and Campbell was 2nd top scorer in the league last season him and Watt should be amazing up front! Campbell has scored loads of goals in Scotland at various loan spells! Brogi cost just 30k and 9k a week in wages. Campbell cost £2.5 million and 16k a week in wages alot of money and he is easily our most expensive signing but I believe if he produces the same form next season it will be well worth it





Finally I now have 3 Scotland under 19 games to play its in a group and only the top team qualifies for the Under 19 championship , our group is very tough and Moldova is likely the only game we will win but we will give it our best shot!

Two solid permanent signings and I'm sure more will follow.

Thanks mate! I will look for more you have quite a bit of the transfer window too!

Well I must admit this came as a real shock brilliant for Campbell, I doubt he will get into the squad when it is cut down but it would be amazing if he did! Just shows where form can get you I am glad I have already agreed a permanent deal for him! He has never played for England but has played 6 times for the under 21s scoring 2 goals

Brilliant chaps! well done!

Thanks Dan ! Gives us our 1st crack at the Champions league group stage!

These were the line ups for the Scottish cup final against Celtic.






Well I am absolutely gutted to lose 15-14 on penalties is so disappointing all 10 outfield players and both goalkeepers all scored and we went round again both teams first 3 scored for them and then Vossen smashed one down the middle so Monge a sub stepped up again and tried to do the same but the keeper and saved it and after all that shootout I was gutted The game itself was a real thriller and we were well worth a draw taking the lead early on with a great counter attack Campbell feeding Ambrose and he finished expertly 1st time! But by half time they were 2-1 up Maguire off a corner and Redmond after a very good run and finish but just before the 70th minute Grimmer headed into his own net off a corner! But despite getting too pens we cruelly lost.

Mental shootout.

ha ha I know so many penalties all scored too both keepers scored went on for ever! Shame we were the ones to lose it

Amazing for us with the under 19s and we have qualified for the World cup



We started off by beating Moldova 2-1 they gave us a much better game than I thought we scored very early through Wardrop but they equalized but we went back ahead after an own goal off a corner they then had a player sent off but with 10 minutes to go they got a pen and I thought they were going to nick a draw but Gibson saved it

Then we played Switzerland and went behind early on and I really feared for our chances but Matheson who was only in the squad because one of our other strikers got injured had 2 chances and finished them both excellently to give us a 2-1 half time lead! And after half time it was very even and the next goal was all important McAllister our left back hoofed one forward from the half way line their defender and the keeper both left it and it bobbled all the way in!!

Our final game was against France they were ahead of us on goal difference so we had to win but I didn't have much faith. They could have been 2-0 up inside 10 minutes but they couldn't force in a goal mouth scramble and Gibson made another top save! And then to my shock Matheson scored a one on one and then a bit later Matheson then took it around the keeper and produced a good finish from a tight angle! He really has been great shame he plays for our big rivals Inverness Herron scored off a corner with 15 minutes to go and I thought we had sealed it! But they grabbed a goal with 10 minutes to go and a goal in injury time to make the scoreline more even but we have qualified



Here is Matheson and as he was so good Inverness have accepted a 100k bid from us for him so he may well be heading our way a few season out on loan and he should be ready!



Also Porteous was amazing at right back in that tournament he already plays for us and was very good on loan at Carlisle but with Casrosa going back have put him in the first team!

As Westwood is getting on in terms of age and Zabret is prone to his dodgy moments I have signed this goalkeeper for just £9.25k from Ipswich! And hopefully he can establish himself as a number one keeper!



Also Matheson has signed he rejected Reading to join us so hopefully he is a hit! Milner and Traore have also left Milner for nothing but Traore to Danish side FC Nordsjaelland for 100k!

Awards Campbell does very well! We pick up a few awards too! Jones,Fleck and Campbell all get in the team of the year Jones for 2nd consecutive season! Rangers scoring all of the goals of the season one against us when watching it back it was because Zabret had a nightmare right at the start of the season.

The wage budget is very good the transfer budget not so but it is probably because I spent £2.5 million on Campbell!

Well I will start with the news of how we have gone up in the world and Scotland!





The league goes down though.





Great season!









Under 19 Euro group! Good luck in this Shedender!





And finally the signings: All on Frees apart from 2 loans!













Overall transfer activity for this season!

I am uploading now! Good luck Shedender, in the under 19 euro championship too! As for Ross County Westwood definitely needs to go! and maybe Zabret. Also probably one or two of Periera,Fleck or Daehli could do with going! Very tough start to the season back to back away games with Hibernian and Celtic

I was planning on releasing Kieran Westwood in my last stint but couldn't find a suitable replacement.

Yeah I have for a bit too! At least now I hope I have found one if not two!

No one wants to sign Andreas Pereira, I've accepted a £1.2m bid for Gregor Zabret from Osasuna while I've accepted two bids for Mats Daehli and have replacements lined up to replace them, oh and Jordan Park has left the club on loan.



Felt the need to bring in a right winger, even short term, so Robert Snodgrass signs on a two year deal.

Brought in two more players, using the money made from the Mats Daehli sale who joined Crystal Palace.

Good signings mate!! Well done on getting rid of Zabret, how much did we get for Daehli? Every season I always think I am going to give Park a chance in the 1st team but every season we always have too many quality strikers so he ends up on loan ha ha.

We could only get £4.5m for Mats Daehli, which we only got half that to spend and I decided to keep Gregor Zabret for the meantime but if I get a replacement in then he'd be OTF.

Yeeeeeeeeah, so it meant the table ended up like this:

ah unlucky was always going to be hard we did brilliantly just to get there! Least we got a point.

Yeah true but we should have defeated Bosnia though.

Secured one more signing ahead of the Hibernian opening game and I feel our work is done.



West Brom have made an offer of £2.9m for Lloyd Jones, it's getting rejected.

Congrats on the title, well deserved. Great signings too.

Thanks mate! We have finally won it! Thanks I am surprised we could sign some of the calibre of players we did!

Another good signing and great start to the season! Unbeaten great stuff! Alot of Capezzi penalties ha ha also good too see some of the new signings score. Good decision to reject Jones bid he is a quality centre back!

What a penalty shooout last year round with you George! Unbelievable Celtic netting every penalty! Some good new faces Shedender and a solid start to the league!

ha ha I know! I was gutted to lose they just didn't miss Thanks mate!
