You made a wise choice keeping Paul Kellett, he can and will only get better with time and first team football.

Kellet and Parton look good already! Good luck for the new season!

They are brilliant players for their age George and will only get better, I've played up to and including September and Kellett has been in some great form for us!

This is superb Dan, keep it up. I am sure another great season will be had by you.

Appreciate the comment buddy, thanks, there is still a long way to go until we reach league football let alone get anywhere near the top, then there is building for the CL and Prem! its a lengthy journey thats for sure! This season is all about survival though!

Kellett for than Parton maybe but both are due to be big players for this club, I reckon they'd cut it in the Championship if we were to get that far! Kellett is now signed on a new three year deal and throughout September was awesome!

After back to back promotions the media are predicting a rocky ride this season in the Skrill Conference Premier, predicting us to finish rock bottom, but we've started life in this new division well by all means. We've opened the season with three wins and three defeats from our opening six league games, I won't lie it could of been better, but its a much stronger start than we were predicted.

Only one side are unbeaten and that is third place Dartford! We have made a good start to the season sitting thirteenth after the opening six games, if we can stay around this position all season I'd be delighted, its all about survival this year and thats it! Anything better is an added bonus but we are not expecting it thats for sure!

You got that right, avoid relegation and build is the plan! Anything better than survival is a bonus! I getting a playoff spot this year especially when the bookies tip us to finish 24th!

Seven games during September and its not bad form that we take on throughout the month. Six league games and one Manchester Cup game as we look to defend it for a third year running. Two wins, two draws and two defeats in the league, very mediocre league form but I'm pleased we are picking up the points. Greg Daniels five goals this month.

https://sortitoutsi.net/uploads/mirrored_images/nxSIKOJWC44sYAAtR5qUynRBR2GJzaCJcLsPjbcV.png

We are around a quarter of the way through the league season and currently sit down in fifteenth with a game in hand. Win that and we can move eleventh and upwards. Hopefully we can continue picking up the points, staying clear of the relegation zone is my main priority right now but anything could happen.

https://sortitoutsi.net/uploads/mirrored_images/yWwj6G9rM7EXHzrtgCoCdYZ5tjuCqScJyfxqSY8b.png

Our very own central midfield star is still growing, this screenshot taken just at the end of September shows that, we've played thirteen competitive games and he has featured in all thirteen, netting three times and assisting four! Nearly all his attributes are on the rise and this is fantastic for the future, his value is slowly rising too!

https://sortitoutsi.net/uploads/mirrored_images/7lGkpxM2JFsap9ZEOP9RTmb7DPabQypsYY2q9ww0.png

Another busy month, we faced seven games throughout October, picking up three wins, three draws and just the one defeat. We drew with Dag & Red in the opening game of October after being two down, goal in the eighty ninth and ninety second minute saved us a draw. Just one defeat in the league this month though, expectedly against Barnet. We eventually managed to beat Leamington second time of asking to send us through to the FA Cup First Round for the third season running.

https://sortitoutsi.net/uploads/mirrored_images/gaJmVShc5oL04gjl2H9EvpcbDtsediQGdkmbDXY5.png

We are up another position and still have a game in hand as we sit in fourteenth place after seventeen games played. We sit ten points above the drop zone whilst only five points outside of the playoff spot. Obviously thats not likely to be our case this season but win our game in hand and we can move up to seventh!

I was hoping this was some sort of sick joke, but apparently not, my first job offer since starting this career was from Ebbsfleet, who sit twentieth place in the Skrill Premier. Why on earth would I even consider leaving a side I've been at for two and a half years, who are currently flying up mid table in the Skrill Premier for a lower positioned team...get real Ebbsfleet!

https://sortitoutsi.net/uploads/mirrored_images/TZ4vZNVKe77PawHT2GJZ5ZnJylJ6JgCXL210v3Vr.png

Looks like playing seven games a month is becomming the norm for us as we did throughout November and produced another fine display of results. We picked up four wins, one draw and two defeats. We only played four league games, managing two wins and two defeats. We have advanced in all three cups this month, making the FA Cup Second Round where we will face League One side Brentford. We will face Gateshead in the FA Trophy Second Round and another non league team as expected in the Manchester Premier Cup Semi Final.

https://sortitoutsi.net/uploads/mirrored_images/wfjAwLBGMJbjtB7z3F6mKewVKAtxSQhDROcf11Hq.png

We are back on our way up the table, we did make it into the playoffs after our back to back league wins at the start of the month but have slipped again slightly since then, We now sit down in eleventh as we are just three games short of the halfway stage this season. Sitting above halfway is fantastic for us, pipped to finish rock bottom, can't complain!

Another job offer, which is nice, but its another I wouldn't even consider if I was thinking of stepping down from FC United! Another team worse off than us!

They were rubbish teams anyway George, but like you said, there is no need to leave! Mid table is where we need to be this season! I'm predicting three seasons to get out of this tough division!

So the final calender month of the year 2015 and its been another successful year and overall another good month for the club. Once again we faced another seven games, winning three, drawing two and losing the other two. We crashed out the FA Cup losing three two to league one side Brentford which was very pleasing. We are into the FA Trophy Third round as we beat Gateshead two one. Whilst picking up eight points from a possible twelve in the league too.

https://sortitoutsi.net/uploads/mirrored_images/DhUzWXwbVVeWIXCubHM33u1Ww5Jy0QCVJyjnaqUR.png

Well I'm very pleased to enter the 2016 calender year sitting tenth in the Skrill Premier. Following last seasons unexpected promotion we couldn't even dream of being in the top half of this league at the end of the year! Its a fantastic effort, who knows where we will end up this year, as long as we beat the drop I don't care!

You're doing a fantastic job here mate, could easily snatch a play-off spot against the odds if you can keep the form up. Unlucky in the FA Cup though, would've liked to see you make the third round for the big boys, would love to see you face a competitive fixture against Manchester United.

Thanks mate, always appreciate the comments, we could hit that playoff spot but my mind is solely rested on finishing mid table or top half! I would of loved to reach the Third Round, a competitive game against United will be massive!

https://sortitoutsi.net/uploads/mirrored_images/NByAzUpFdG8K0ygTinUKyKjxjwYAioi8XpQG7Q24.png

I reckon in my two and a half seasons in charge, this has been my favorite month to date! January 2016, the month where we faced eight games in twenty five days and went on to win five, draw two and lose just one, the very last one. We picked up ten points from a possible fifteen in the league, advanced through the FA Trophy Third and Fourth round to send us into the Semi Finals!

https://sortitoutsi.net/uploads/mirrored_images/pPNG82oGMFgIVOLeit4UlKwVhvZlJ58DC6iITeZH.png

And that fantastic month has been rewarded in the league standings, we have shot up the table now lurking just outside the playoff spots as we sit up in sixth place come the end of January, just a single point outside the playoffs. More notably we are only nine points off the league top spot, thats being ambitious, I don't even expect us to qualify for the playoffs at the end of the season, but its nice to be here at the moment.
