It was supposed to be another 'straight forward' cup tie since we were at home, but no, once again we made it hard for ourselves as we had to come from behind to beat Highland League side Buckie Thistle in the Scottish Cup third round. We needed two goals in the final twenty minutes to seal our deserved passage to the fourth round.

And what's our reward for reaching the fourth round?

Yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeah, please don't disgrace yourself Dan. It's one of the worst possible draws we could've got as an inconsistent League Two club. Was really hoping Berwick would've got at least a League One club but c'est le vie.

A couple good signings, I really struggled to find anyone I felt good enough to bring in. Results are up and down as they were with me, keep plucking away man!

That's the problem sometimes with managing a semi-professional club pal, it's hard to find 'talent' that'll strengthen the squad.

Just a second league win under my stint as we've beaten Clyde 1-0 at home - Darren Lavery bagging the winner seven minutes from time. The Clyde red card probably changed the outcome of the match but it was a much needed maximum points. It's still tight at the top though.

Didn't deserve to be victorious here at Galabank, Annan bossed the game for large parts. Pleased to see Michael McKenna get on the scoresheet again.

Finally, a win and a clean sheet after a convincing victory over the basement boys.

Unacceptable really. Montrose started the afternoon second bottom and they played us off the park. It's now four games without a win in League Two, needs to be addressed as soon as possible or Dan's early work is going to be undone by me, but I did warn him. I've got seven league games and a Scottish Cup tie left before I hand the save back over.

We're through to the next round but I was hoping it would have been more convincing against the Lowland League side - we shouldn't have needed a goal twelve minutes from time to seal our passage.

Our reward?

I'd like to think we'll be in the fourth round.

Back-to-back 1-1 draws at home for Berwick in my stint as we could only draw with East Fife.

One more position I thought we were quite weak in was the centre of midfielder and reinforcements were needed in that position, and quick. Twenty three year old Dale Fulton arrives on a free transfer until the end of the season and he's a little experience at a higher level which could prove vital.

Another centre back arrives under my three month reign - formerly of St. Mirren, doesn't have much experience. Josh McArthur will get guaranteed game time, and experience at Shielfield Park.

And the last signing is Stephen O'Donnell who has also joined the club until the end of the season, at the age of thirty two, he doesn't look good enough and probably won't be a regular in the first team. But, he brings bags of Premiership experience to Shielfield Park and that could be vital.

With one of our centre backs (pretty much) being ruled out for the remainder of the campaign, it was essential that a new centre back arrived at the club, but whenever you're semi-professional, you're quite limited. Michael Selfridge has arrived on loan for the remainder of the season from Cove Rangers and will be thrown straight into the first team.

I'm still looking at other signings as well as the squad needs boosted.

Denied maximum points because of a late goal, against the second worst team in the league.

Frustrating. The team have played well the last two games but failed to win ffs.

EDIT: Good win at home to Annan though, even if it was a lil undeserved.

Need to download some logos that hurt my eyes.

Doesn't need too.

Not the worst season to have Fola, it's always going to be difficult while at Mumbia and I'm sure once you find the correct tactic you'll do well at the club. I quite like short seasons, the main reason why I enjoyed managing in Gib at the end of FM15 when interest was starting to go.

It's with great regret that this career could be no more as I'm beginning to lose interest, perhaps mainly because I'm a) always losing money and b) the failure to turn professional in those fourteen seasons I've played - I'm expecting Linfield, the only professional team in the Premiership, to go on and dominate while the rest of us, me included, will trial behind them as they'll perhaps dominate.

Even though I've enjoyed the save, I've actually struggled to get through the last few seasons and had to 'force' myself to complete them.

The save will remain with me in an attempt to rekindle the career but I don't think I will. Would love to do a 'media' style career like I used too but don't know if time constraints will allow me - although perhaps it'll be good to get a break from Football Manager every now and then as that's all I usually play as soon as I wake up and wait to start work, if I start at midday.

Thanks to everyone who had been reading, I'd like to get this rekindled but it probably won't be - I'm starting to think the career should've been ended 'one day' after we won the league title three/four seasons ago, go out on a high.

It's a shame this good career is stopping for the time being due to work commitments, thoroughly enjoyed it while it lasted and I'm hoping it'll be continued sometime in the future. You done a solid job at Hartlepool and loved the double-barrelled names, didn't you Fola lad?

2 games, 5 points and a hotrible goal difference. Ffs pressure.

FFS, don't get them relegated now. Shouldn't really happen though.

I heard he's already been sent off back at Marseille, 11 minutes into his re-debut?

Correct, 10 minutes after coming off the bench. Great start for him back at Marseille.

el shaarawy trn to monaco? thought that was off as he has gone to roma on loan with a view to permenant move there?

He's at Roma on my save. You downloaded the latest update?

However, it says "joining Monaco on 1/7/2016" - can someone confirm that's incorrect and it's meant to be Roma?

This is from the BBC website:

"The 28-year-old moves to St James' Park until the end of the season, with an option to make the deal permanent."

So, it just says "with an option to make the deal permanent" but doesn't state how much will need to be spent.

We got linked earlier with re-signing Jose Enrique, to which my response was "Why?"

Though apparently we wouldn't offer him a long-term contract so he's back to playing FIFA and Mario Kart on £60k a week wages at LFC. Hard life but someone has to do it.

Glad we didn't end up signing him.

We'll probably battle for a replay and win 1-0 at Old Trafford

Isn't that the "Manchester United way" though?

Eleven games (until the goal vs. Koln) without a goal must've been quite alarming lads. The gap is only five points so no need to hit the 'panic button' yet. Good luck and I'm sure you'll get out of the relegation places.
