Stole a cheeky win against South Korean rivals Seoul. Always nice to get a victory over them.

Champions League time ....


https://sortitoutsi.net/uploads/mirrored_images/6ndJxOjHk69WLvKvWR2nJmjCYWkVABVAB8kYKZ7C.png

At the end of the first leg of the final we managed to take a slim lead against a very strong Algerian side. Despite setting up to play an attacking brand of football, we almost played a counter attacking game. We seemingly sat back and took advantage on the counter.


The second leg played like this ...



Unbelievable scenes Jeff ....

5-5 on aggregate and we almost blew it. Went to penalties. WE kept our cool throughout and went to take the game. Unreal.

Handy money, all incoming money is good for the club. Hopefully at the end of the season I will get some cash to spend.

Won the cup we couldn't do last year. Beat the side that has an annoying manager. Beat the side that is high flying. C'mon the Buccs!

Hopefully Dan, he does look like a prospect.

So we managed to boss the Champions League group. Lot of good revenue came in. Lot of good displays too.

Transfer business. Quite a lot went out, lot of bosman deals came in. Happy with the business done.

Pre-season silverware. Not a brilliant game but winning silverware and beating the Chiefs to do it is always worthwhile.

Disappointed. We tried playing football and Bloom just got down and dirty and committed 22 fouls. Annoyed and disappointed.

Held out and held onto 4th. The squad showed some character since I took over which is pleasing. But we are financially in a mess and really need some players to take us to the next level. We have managed to qualify for the Champions League also, so money will be coming in from that. I should stress it is no where near as bad as it was in South Korea but it's not glorious.

To be honest Dan, we concede quite early on a regular basis and have to make comebacks. So it is also a problem for us at the back.

So a streak of wins has boosted us up the table, but we are at times struggling to score goals and not having the money to sign players is a ball ache.

A quite successful club and the only club in South Africa to win the CAF Champions League. Was only a season ago that this club had won the league and not many of that squad has moved on. One thing is clear is that the squad is an ageing one and therefore needs to be looked at in terms of bringing youngsters through.

https://sortitoutsi.net/uploads/mirrored_images/1EI8LJ6XflVEck6XknWZKbSEGR6EPlS3RFUjRQ8E.png

Despite my reputation in Asia, it means squat here in South Africa. Which is fair enough. I only signed a deal to conclude until the end of the current season. The reason for this was clear for me. I needed a job, but the demands of competing wit the top sides will be a difficult task. League form is dire and as I eluded to above the squad is fairly old. With no money I won't be able to adjust the squad. Add to that I feel that the expectations I am being asked to achieve might well be beyond us for this season. It allows me an escape route for another job but if I do achieve the impossible allows me room to negotiate a tidy deal.

https://sortitoutsi.net/uploads/mirrored_images/D0ORNV0zGMFChdbdYIT2DaMnX7agFie3SOBf1LLV.png

League form has been poor, but cup runs seem to be a speciality. Lost one final but my first game in charge is a cup final against a top side in SuperSport. All to play for then in my first game.

Won the league a season back now languishing in 11th. Time to step up.

Finding it hard to decide to leave Suwon or stay on ... hence it's delaying the updates.

Any suggestions?

The treble completed. Top of the Asian HoF and a decision to be made. Job in South Africa has come up. Declared my interest in the job but they can't afford the compensation package. If I resign then I can allow the club in South Africa talk to me. At a cross road here. Seem to be jumping ship a lot but I'm fed up of Asia for now and I think I've done all that I can.

Final played out like that. So ecstatic not only did we win, but we hammered Seongnam. It was gutting to see Park Ji-Sung so gutted and some of the players who served me well. I need to make this clear it is not against the players at the club but the hierarchy and more so the chairman Lee Jae-Myung. My beef is with him and him alone. To get a victory over him is always pleasing.
