Ha ha personally I am still really enjoying it with ross County but see what the other guys think!

Well done on reducing the wage budget sold the right players really! Good signings too!

This is how the players preformed this season! Hogg,Sparrow and Burton have already left but their stats are at the bottom!

Goalkeepers:



Ben Williams was my number one keeper throughout the season he has only played 14 games on there because he was on loan at the start of the season and they haven't counted but he was fantastic at the start, Taylor came in January as a number 2 keeper and he has played well in his 4 appearances so far. Pat Weaver despite the name is only 17 and has played one game so far!

Right Backs



Eddie Nolan played quite a few games sometimes at right back some at left back but he was solid enough wherever he played and will be good back up for next season! Curtis Obeng joined on loan from Swansea and he had a very slow start with some poor performances but he improved defensively and his long throws were a real weapon and we scored alot of important goals from his long throws! I am hoping he will join on loan again next season!



Centre backs



Mirfin was fantastic all season and got in the team of the year! Scoring 8 goals too Canavan also did well and became a starting centre back! Gabbidon didn't do as well as expected but I am willing to give him a chance next season! Thacker and Ford are 2 youngsters who played a few times towards the end of the season and they both did very well especially Ford who I will look to give a few chances next season!

Left backs



Only Dawson and Dummett are actually playing as left backs! Nolan did a couple of times but I have covered him as a right back, Dummett did very well when he came in on loan from Newcastle and was my starting left back and he played 14 times and was always ultra consistent I will look to get him back on loan next season! Dawson did well last season and will do again as back up he is also a coach and scored a great free kick.

Centre midfielders



Greening did ok but is on high wages so I will look to move him on he scored a few goals but now at 35 I think it is right to let him go. Andy Rose has just joined so nothing to say on him, O'Keefe did quite well not scoring any but he played as a more defensive midfielder and although he was injured alot he was always 1st choice when he was fit, Alex Cracknell was another youngster who played towards the end he struggled a bit but expect him to play a bit next season! Michael Tonge has also just joined, Donal McDermott will be covered in right wingers, Jari Litmanen did very well at the age of 43 he only played about half the games and came off the bench alot and he grabbed 2 goals a penalty and a very important winning goal unfortunately now he can hardly run so to save wages I will be looking to sell him too, Brian Howard was amazing and was a great loan signing grabbing 8 goals and alot of assists I am looking to sign him this season! David Syers was almost ever present and was fantastic and ran the midfield in alot of the games I have accepted a £825k offer from Brentford for him but I am unsure of weather to let him go it is a great offer but he is fantastic in midfield.

Right Wingers



Just the 2 here and both did very well Odhiambo coming in, in January and he did well after a slow start he scored some great goals and was a key member of the team he will be staying! The other winger was Donal McDermott who also did very well in numerous positions and he was very consistent didn't do alot special but kept chipping away and grabbed a few goals!

Left Wingers



Just the one here and that is young Connor Purdue who only played towards the end of the season and made a great assist he will play a few times next season! Winnall,Howard and McDermott were the players who mainly played on the left and they have been covered in other positions!

Strikers



Connor Jennings came in towards the end another youngster playing from the right mainly but he scored one very good goal he will be staying, Paddy Madden I expected big things of him and he started the season quite well but then he got a long term injury and he missed alot of games and his form went towards the end of the season he started scoring again to boost his tally to 14 goals! Sam Winnall ended up being our top scorer which is quite remarkable as he played left wing for alot of the season only really playing up front in the 3 months Madden was injured but he did well and scored alot of good goals 18 in all as he played in nearly every game this season! Winnall and Madden will be staying, Kane Hemmings has just joined the club!



Chris Hogg has a great average rating but was on huge wages for us so I had to let him go which was a shame as I feel he would do a job for us as he has joined Sheffield United who have been promoted to the championship



Sparrow did ok but he is the wrong side of 30 so I have let him go he didn't offer alot he was more of an attacking midfielder but didn't offer any goals and not enough assists for me.



Burton also did well when he played a big target man who was very poor at the start of the season but in the middle of the season scored quite a few goals before tailing off again but now I feel I have a younger and better option in Hemmings so Burton has gone as he is 37!

Excellent start buddy!

Yeah champions league football again too but still the same

Capezzi and Porteous were amazing! And fully deserved and deserved awards for us too Celtic despite getting alot of players in the team of the year came second!

Get in!!!!! What a title win!! Fantastic everyone 3-0 down too!

Well I went to Bolton away yesterday and we were crap we desperately missed Hanley in defence and Cairney in midfield Kilgallon did his best and was the only one who played quite well making a brilliant block at 0-0 but Lowe and Williamson just are not good enough in midfield and never got on the ball also Adam Henley at right back had a real shocker and played far to narrow Spurr had to play centre back when he is a left back so that was worrying we need to get a centre back in on loan for cover, Kilgallon also went off injured if he and Hanley miss the Burnley game next week then we have as good as lost before kick off and we can't lose to Burnley! It looks very difficult to reach the play offs now.

We unfortunately ended the season with a loss. They went ahead inside the 1st half which was deserved unfortunately after just 9 minutes Paddy Madden went off injured so we really struggled after that but we did equalize just after the hour mark when a mistake by them fell to Odhiambo and he ran through and scored but with 10 minutes left they bundled in a corner and we fell to defeat



We had a sell out crowd for the last game of the season and we lost the last time we had a big crowd was when we had a fan day and we lost 4-1 at home to AFC Wimbledon so that is very odd we seem to be losing in front of big crowds.



But a great season has finished Chesterfield and Plymouth join us in going up automatically and Mansfield who also finished 4th went up via the play offs and Torquay and Newport County have gone down although they had a mini bit of good form they were in the relegation zone for alot of the season.




Here were some awards we won the league so comfortably but only David Mirfin got in the team of the season.











No money and only an extra 1k left for wages.



But I have signed 2 more centre midfielders to join Kane Hemmings here for a season in league 1.

A perfect April! Some fantastic results with alot of under 18s playing too!



We were very poor away at struggling Torquay but we came away with the win like we have so often this season! Odhiambo scoring with 20 minutes to go after a good finish when one on one!

Next we had Bury at home and I gave Alex Ford a debut! And he scored after just 5 minutes his shot was deflected and then the keeper palmed it into his own net but it went down as his goal! Alex Ford also got man of the match in a fantastic performance! But on 57 minutes they equalized a free kick went in and Edjenjuele scored at the far post but Madden finally broke his huge goal drought which was excellent as he then had a great month! A good header

Then we had Morecambe away and we played very well and came away with all 3 points 2 fantastic finishes by Madden who is coming back to his best form! his first a good finish inside the near post when Syers played him through! His second was an amazing ball by Odhiambo right around the defence and Madden finished it off! They offered some threat but there closest effort was a long range Drummond shot which hit the post!

We had a game just 2 days later so I played a team of under 18s and not first choice players, I wanted to keep Madden in to keep his scoring form going and despite the fact they had a number of early chances somehow not scoring young Weaver in net making one brilliant point blank save! But then we started to pressure them and when Madden was brought down and he stepped up himself to slot it into the corner! And right on half time it was 2-0 a great ball by young Connor Purdue found another youngster Connor Jennings smashed in with a very confident finish! And a Dawson corner was knocked in by Canavan! They scored after 89 minutes young Weaver dropped the ball and Rose tapped it in.

The final game of the month was away at Exeter and it was a very poor game and we could have gone 1-0 down but Madden who started on the bench came on and scored 2 with three minutes the first after a mistake by the keeper the other another one on one and it made a 100% month!








This is all the youngsters that made debuts for the 1st team!











Good for young Ford and Madden finally gets his goal which opens the floodgates for him!





I have signed Kane Hemmings he cost just 6k and should hopefully do a job next season in league 1.



Great record



Player of the month is ........ Paddy Madden! Great to see him back in form!

Thanks mate! He has a very poor start but he hasen't looked too bad just given away 2 penalties

Well I think we may have thrown our chance of the title away although overall I was pleased with the results in the 2 months that lost against Aberdeen has cost us big time Celtic have hardly slipped up so we really had to win. In the Aberdeen game we had chances to go 1-0 and chances to make it 1-1 but we couldn't score and their goal was awful we had loads of chances to clear it but just kept whacking it against our own players and Hanlon taped it in The Rangers game should have been alot more comfortable as we were 3-0 up with 10 minutes to go but they scored 2 in 2 minutes a penalty was the first one thankfully Jones sealed the win!







These were the teams that started for the Scottish cup semi final against Celtic.



And unfortunately we lost we were very unlucky and Forster made a number of great saves we really should have scored more than one but Devos has had a slow start for us and has given away 2 penalties in this game and against Rangers Martial smashed that in and Redmond scored a very good goal as well





Callum Paterson has signed on a free from Blackburn he has done well on loan so I have snapped him up!



2nd place for Porteous he has done really well and Mandic has been fantastic! Scoring 2 goals very good goals too





2 injures both players will miss the rest of the season gutted one of our best players and our number 1 keeper





Celtic results

Up they rise again!

Also I have signed This left back! Tyler Blackett was doing ok but I feel he is better and I sold Blackett for £1.5 million to Middlesbrough! McManaman has also been released!

In this 1st month, I am pleased with our form we did well in the league bar the draw at home to Hearts but we were 2-0 down at half time and 3-2 down too so a point was decent. Campbell getting back in the goals was pleasing! Man City was always going to be hard but we did ok conceding 2 off corners. But we won the Scottish league cup Disley was excellent in CAM and played so well! And against Inverness it was 1-1 until the last 10 minutes Ianni scored his first for the club and we ran riot



















Martial Celtic £5 million pound striker has had rather a good season

Great work on winning the title so nearly unbeaten! Was always going to be tough in the champions league but good effort! Plenty of awards too

Good luck mate! Enjoyed the review of players!

Good luck mate!

Great work on winning the title! And a good start to the new season!

Ha ha I am loving this mate! Keep it coming!

Yeah I suppose! I hope they do better for me!

Great season mate! And some good signings! So unlucky in the FA cup losing on pens

Good luck at Milan mate! I hope you can turn their league season around!

Unlucky mate, You haven't done too badly and the title race is very close just a point off Celtic!, unlucky against Man City was always going to be hard especially with 2 men sent off!

Ok mate don't sell Ambrose he has done very well and can be an option on the right wing!

Ok mate good luck!

Thanks Dan! Hopefully we can retain our title!

Yeah that's good! Ha ha yeah!

Great work on getting to the final! And hopefully you keep your job and get some money!

Thanks for the Comment! I hope so but I don't think it will be easy but thanks!

Ha ha that's cool! Did he always stand out as being very good? He has had his fair of injures and a couple of suspensions but whenever he was available he usually started! 23 starts, 5 off the bench and a 6.78 average rating, but scoring no goals!
