New England Revolution
Est: 1996 | Played: 527, Won: 194, Lost: 231, Drawn: 102

That my friends is the lowest and most unsuccessful record in the history of the MLS. But I'm out to change that. I'm here to revolutionise the way they play and how they go about their football. And I'll try to nab a championship while I'm at it. Will start off here but if I feel I've exceeded my bounds, I'll leave.

Board Expections: Be Competitive in the MLS/US Cup Fourth Round

I have not implemented any philiosophies yet, however I would like to grow my own youth players during this time and bring in a few seasoned veterans.

So what is 'The Technical Area'?

 

The Technical Area Podcast is a podcast based on you guessed it - Football Manager. After the runaway success that has been Ultimate A-League podcast this year covering Australian Football, we've decided to jump in and start our very own football manager podcast.

 

Who is we?

 

Dual FFDU Media Award nominated hosts Kristian Dwyer (myself) and Damien Loiacono. 

 

What exactly will you feature?

 

A weekly podcast featuring:

 

- Our Week In FM: Where we'll talk the latest in our games of Football Manager.

- Edit Spotlight: We'll pick an editor data or graphics package (facepacks, themes, etc) to highlight and provide a link to it on our facebook page.
- Career of the Week: We'll pick on career to watch on the scene to highlight and provide a link to it on our facebook page.

- Individual sections presented by both myself and Damien (gotta keep some things a surprise )

OCCASIONAL guest interviews with players and admins from around the scene as well as hopefully some contact from SI.

 

So what do we need from you?

 

We want you to simply support us by listening. We're doing this for you guys. If you think we should feature something, let us know. If you think we should cover your career, link us. Got an addon league that you think is tops? Share it with us. This show is yours as much as it is ours.

 

Like most podcasts we also want to encourage any of you to send us your content so we can highlight it. Whether you want to send us a 90 second tactic tip section for us to put at the end of our show, we will be more than happy to do it. (See Frogpants Network for examples - their shows go for around 90 minutes THEN community content).

 

How you can get involved

 

Our baby facebook page has just been birthed into the world at www.facebook.com/technicalareashow and we'll be orchestrating all our content from there. 

 

I'm also happy to keep answering questions here for you guys regarding the show

So nearly two years later and having declined around 50 job offers from Belgium, I was offered a job I couldn't refuse - Neman Grodno in the Belrussian Highest League - that is - the big leagues. How I made that jump I'd never know. After 12 out of 33 games, they sit 4 points behind safety, but still sit in a relegation playoff position. It'll be my job to make sure they stay up and in the future challenge for the title.

So a smashing win in the end costs us our place in the 2013-2014 Austrian First Division. It's a shame really, we played some great football and I thought we were a real chance of staying up, sadly going down on goal difference. Could've been so different really.

The 6-0 loss really cost us, however it was the performance of the team before I got there that set us up for inevitable failure. Not enough squad depth cost us, despite signing some handy free transfers, the injuries got the better of us.

So off to unemployment i go again, heres the final table:

So here I am, I find myself coach of Austrian First Division club FC Lustenau on 28th November 2012.

How it stands so far...

They're obviously a club that's not in DIRE trouble, but is well in line for a potential relegation playoff. My aim is to change that. I have three months in their mid-season break to do so, and I'll be setting up a plethora of friendlies against fellow First Division sides to see just how we match up.

Ideally, i'll bring my 4-2-3-1 mentality with me, but we'll see how that fairs in Austria.

Ok, so heres how this is going to play out.

I've loaded Austria, Belarus & Belgium in a career - with the effort of winning each league in each country in the world as I go along. I know this will take an eternity, but I'm up for a good career game.

Hell, I probably won't even get thru Europe, but here goes eh? No other rules other than no cheats etc.

I'll keep you lot posted.
