And so begins this year's FA Cup run...

We lead the way... unsurprisingly.

We breeze past Margate in the 1st round of the FA Cup.

And get past Exeter in a much tighter affair.

Our reward for reaching the 3rd round? A trip to the Etihad.. Man City await! We really, really would benefit financially from getting past Man City (not going to happen I know that). Purely because of how fucked the finances are at the club, FA Trophy success is of top priority too.

Here's the sitch' at the halfway mark. We are going great guns in the league. As I said in the previous post, finances at the club are not good right now and are set to continue to deteriorate in the coming months so success is a bloody MUST this season. So far so good.

Some good news. Granted, they aren't paying us a fortune, but income is income in our situation. Chance to grab some good players too hopefully.

You say this, but honestly sir its better to spend another division in the Skrill Premier! I spent two seasons there as soon as I hit League Two I'm losing more money than ever all over the shop!

Oh really? Damn. I thought the money from promotion/introduction of the Capital One would really help! Thanks for commenting Dan.

We're going up as champions! We tallied up 105 goals en route to the title with Danny Mills getting 25 of them for himself. Out of the whole season, we only led the way for the final 3 games of the season, not too dissimilar from Man City's recent success in the Prem. The semi-professional Hawks are going to the Football League baby!

Would be very difficult to argue anyone other than David Viana to get player of the season. Our Portuguese playmaker managed an absurd 31 assists in the league whilst bagging 13 goals too. Of course top scorer Danny Mills had a wonderful season and young sensation Alex Staley finished up with 16 goals and 12 assists, attracting major interest from Reading.

Some not so good news. Umpteen Premier League sides had come calling for Alex Staley and, whilst he was happy to stay, £1M in our current situation financially was impossible to turn down. I'll retain 35% of the fee (£350k) for maneuvering in the transfer market, which is HUGE for a newly-professional side in League 2. Our squad is down to the bare bones now so brace yo' asses for some transfers. Thanks for your service Alex boyo.

Made a lot of movement in the transfer market as you can see. I'm pleased with how it went for the most part, strengthened vital areas and did so with good players. Didn't spend the money on that marquee player that I wanted to really tear up League 2, but I remain optimistic with months to go until the next window for some extensive scouting tasks.

Two new additions. One for now, one for the future. Both free deals.

We've secured a play-off spot with a chance of making it 3 promotions in 4 seasons! Really surprised at the relative ease of this league with a few decent, assessed transfers. Main thing of note is Grimsby finishing with a hilarious 35 losses haha. We've drawn Crawley in the play-off semi's and I fancy us.

As promised, a MAJOR shake up for this year. I've let practically every player that has contributed to my success go. Cruel as it may be, the facts are - they aren't good enough for this level, they aren't going to improve and they certainly aren't getting any younger. I've brought it some really bright talents and some players who can make an immediate impact. This is how the dealings look at the beginning of the league campaign, but I'm not sure if I'm done there.
