It's a cruel game, Gorman first game back from injury and inspires a comeback only to get reinjured.

That is the end of my stint and leaves the table like this:

Next game is against Doncaster and could very well decide the league if not at least it will pretty much settle 1 and 2 I think. Two games after that are Blackpool who are lower mid table and Bolton who are already relegated and finally finish with Yeovill. So it is still anyone's league.

I also re signed some players and took off £2800 per week off the wage bill, we have about 5k in the budget now, the only thing is the bonuses in the contracts.

Fucking bs. Gray has been on fire since taking over from an unhappy Oliver. He has 11 goals in the league and 6 of them have come in my stint.

Our defensive woes continue but once we got our 1st it was all us. We are back level pegging with Doncaster now but they have a game in hand.

Still couldn't keep a goal out if we had 11 blokes in goal but good to hold on for the win. We are now 3 points off 1st so hanging in there.

Nolan scores a fantastic header, unfortunately was into our own net. Mackrath has a goal disallowed. By the time we finally broke them down the game was over. We are now 4th but still only 5 points off 1st so time to turn it around I hope.

I just don't, speechless, no words. Defence is a real issue with me every time it seems. We finally score goals but fuck me did we let some in.

And just like that we come crashing back down to earth. We are now 4 points behind Doncaster in the lead.

Absolutely dominated every category in this game and fully deserved the win. Gray and Gorman the superstar subs, both with doubles and both finishing off some great passing movements.

On a sad note though my first injury, Gorman out for 5-6 weeks.

Heartbreaking to go down in the 90th minute in a game I felt we were slightly better in. We just weren't clinical enough in the first half when we were really dominating.

Only 2 of our 12 shots were on target. Think I may do some tinkering here.

Gonna start posting the same screenies as you lot, gives a better overview of the match. Anyways:

http://i57.tinypic.com/dqrj9k.jpg

Absolutely nail biter to watch. We had 3 golden opportunities to win this before they went on a counter and got the penalty. Jaw dropped and heart sank. Straight off the kick off we lob it up field and score, then again right before the final whistle we had a chance to steal the game but their goalkeeper was on fire.

Literally nothing happened in the first half and aside from the 2 goals nothing in the second half. It was over in about 40 seconds lol.

Arnold was on fire and Gorman missed an open net, although he did shoot from the half way line. Plus no injuries I stuck with the same squad and formation as Itchy for now.

Yeah Cymro forgot to mention we had about 5 or 6 players with wage rises varying from 10-15% I believe. So yeah I really couldn't do much with it and with none of the Watford players wanting to come I thought we might struggle. We do have a good sized squad but our history with injuries is ridiculous.

Okies well my turn is up, just had the one fixture the friendly against Watford in a 2-0 loss. Even with no games our players were still dropping like flies, lots of little injuries and colds etc etc.

Did horribly on the transfer market, only managed 1 signing and no one Watford wanted to join us unless we go after lower quality then we had last season.

Who's turn is it now?

Okay I have done a lot of scouting but I am afraid until we can move some players on we won't be signing anyone else. I made some changes to staff and managed to get us from 9k to 7k over the wage budget but it is restricting anyone I want to bring in.

I am gonna raid Watford and ask for another parent club. Also I made a bid to bring back Ikpwazu on loan and he get's injured for 3 months the day after.

No one from Watford wants to join, waiting on the results of a new parent club now.

Was there even a thought it could be anybody else?

http://i62.tinypic.com/2qwirt3.jpg

Direct loan replacement for Cassola.

Also resigned Arnold, a bit less then he was on before so saves us some wages and doesn't result in a panic buy for a goalkeeper cause we are light in the area. Means I can take some time and scout around.

Thanks Abberto, if you are interested you should check out our first succession story on last years game with the same team. Was quite an epic journey.

Anyways onto our game.

Oh yeah my boy, always good to see someone you signed acknowledged even though I didn't get to use him.
On a sad note though it is very difficult to recruit any players as we are still nearly 10k over the wage budget. Unless I can move some people on it looks like my two months will just be continuing the game lol.

Messi who? The Kluk is what it's all about. Unlucky in the final but that's life, an impressive feat just to get there considering how rubbish we were during my stint lol.

Really like the look of Andre Gray, reckon he will bag a heap for us with the right service.

I had Everton to win as well, but took draws for Palace-Southampton and Sunderland-Hull.
