Melbourne Heart are one the newest sides in Australia, and they will be your club to manage for this second stage of the tour. As you are one the newest sides in the country you will have a need to address the playing staff, the training facilities, the youth system, and work with some limited money to help you dominate your rivals and qualify for the Champions League competition. Despite the fact you are a new side in Australia, you will possess a new link with English giants Manchester City and have the golden boy of Australian football in Harry Kewell at your disposal. Do you have what it takes to keep up the domestic expectations expected of the Heart? Can you give Harry Kewell one final swansong whilst also looking for continental football dominance?

Melbourne Heart

Heart entered the competition in the 2010–11 season after its formation in June 2009. In January 2014, the club was acquired by Manchester City, in partnership with the Australian rugby league club Melbourne Storm. The club is run from a facility based at La Trobe University, and plays matches at Melbourne Rectangular Stadium, also commercially known as AAMI Park a 30,050 seat multi-use venue in Melbourne's City Centre. A youth squad competes in the National Youth League.

A-League

The A-League was established in 2004 as a successor to the National Soccer League and commenced in August 2005. The league is currently contested by ten teams; nine based in Australia and one based in New Zealand. Seasons run from October to April and include a 27-round regular season and an end-of-season finals series playoff tournament involving the highest-placed teams, culminating in the Grand Final game. It is currently sponsored by the Hyundai Motor Company and thus officially known as the Hyundai A-League.

Since the league's inaugural season, a total of 6 clubs have been crowned A-League Premiers (regular season winners) and 5 clubs have been crowned A-League Champions (Grand Final winners). Successful A-League clubs gain qualification into the continental competition, the Asian Football Confederation Champions League.

For people with 1 season left can we not let me finish that as quick as possible while we move onto the other challenge today at the deadline

Do cup wins over your rivals count as another 5pts mate?

The site clearly needs an upgrade, in terms of looks, usability, simplicity and clarity.

By Fantastic | On 25 March 2014 - 22:41 PM

And done.

And we have our first member on the leader board ... with -25

Well you are currently ranked number 1 ...

Going to start this in the next half hour. Am I allowed to holiday past the friendlies to the first competitive fixture of the season? I hate that part of pre season.

Suppose so. Not in the rules. You play it as you want. Just no editing software to be used.

I'm going to jump on this tonight, no guarantees I'll finish 1 season as I'm a very slow player at times

Will post an update if I get anywhere near worth mentioning
