Don't worry, it's for about a week. I have a lot of things to do right now, and I don't have time to play !

Almost perfect month. A loss (but predictable) against Caen in the Cup. One against Luzenac in the league, this one is bad, we could have drawn it, but we missed a penalty to tie the game up.
But with the win against Dunkerque..
..We're promoted in the Ligue 2 !! What a fantastic season here.
We had a massive prize money with our semi-final in the cup.
Here are the standings with 2 games to go :
The title is still possible. Let's do this now !
MAY 2020 :
Two solid wins to finish the season ! But is that enough to get the title ?
YES IT IS ! We're champions ! Wonderful season, it's amazing to get into the Ligu 2 that way.
Confirmation here
Solid season from my players here.
AWARDS :
My team got a lot of rewards this season. First of all, Farès Bahlouli was huge :
Two awards for him, that's great.
3 players in the team of the season, huge.
And I'm the manager of the season, I'm honored !
OTHER NEWS :
We had a good prize money for the title :
The board set up the budgets for next season :
And we were knocked out of the cup by the winner :
Next update : Pre-Season 2020-21
Announcement : I'm going to take a break from this save. It's not that I'm bored of whatsoever, it's just that I want to play in other countries, without leaving Longueau, so I'll just start another save, because this one is very "boring" in the fact that I'm still in France. So, this story is "paused" but I'll let you know when I start it again.

A VERY BAD game against Epinal. Right after this game I called a team meeting to yell at my players, and I don't know if it was a coincidence or not, but they started winning again. Especially that big French Cup game against Ajaccio, a Ligue 2 side. We were impressive and a very well deserved win to get to the quarter final ! Then a very difficult win against Avranches, thanks to a 90+6 goal !!! Nimes and Sedan were easier games and we got the job done here.
8 points ahead of Nimes, 3 behind Le Poiré sur Vie. We're getting closer to the promotion without being too far from the title, that's sweet.
And the month ended with a youth intake :
I only signed the central defenders !
MARCH 2020 :
A lucky draw (once again) in French Cup, facing a CFA team. We get to the semi-final ! That's insane ! Two great wins in the league to get closer to the "dream" of the promotion.
"Nothing" changed here. Still 3 points behind Le Poiré, still 8 points above the 4th spot ! But with only 5 games to go now. If we're serious, the promotion will be coming soon !!!

DECEMBER 2019 :
A warning month !! Nothing's gonna be easy in this league if we don't take it seriously. The last win makes me think we'll bounce back well.
Still first here. 7 points upon the 4th place, that's good, especially with that not so good month ! But we'll have to take care of business here.
JANUARY 2020 :
I thought that the Messi-Ronaldo era was over, but hey, guess who's back ?
Well, well, well !!! Wakey wakey guys ! 7 points out of the last 21 ! That's not good. Not good at all ! On the "bright" side, we've reached the 7th round (round of 16) of the French Cup ! It'll bring a lot of money to the club.
We're not first, and we only have 5 points above the 4th spot.. We'll have to fight until the end to get that promotion !
Next update : February and March 2020

Just one loss in this almost perfect month. We put up some really good numbers in goals. We're getting pretty impressive this season !
We're on top of the league, but alone this time. 4 points ahead of the 4th place, that's very good.
NOVEMBER 2019 :
4 win in a row (with the one in Cup against a National team), but two draws to end the month. It's a disappointing one against Istres. They had 4 chances and scored 2 goals. I really have to improve my defensive players !
We're crushing the league right here ! 8 points ahead of the 4th spot, I like it. But it's far from being over here.

An almost perfect month. A solid win against Strasbourg to begin the season. We had a solid draw in the derby against Amiens, but we could (should ?) have won this one, as we were up 3-2 at the 88th minute with that Nazon's goal. We couldn't maintain the lead, that's a shame.
And a good win against Red Star to finish the month. 9 goals scored in 3 games, I like the sound of that !
4 teams tied at 7 on the top of the league, and we're one of them. Very good start here.
SEPTEMBER 2019 :
A Bahlouli show against Colmar ! He put us in a very comfortable situation and we just had to control the second half then. Then a very difficult cup game against a 7th tier side. They took an early lead, we responded quickly, but we weren't able to score the go-ahead goal. Fortunately, we avoided the extra-time thanks to a Ronconi header at the 90th minute !
Against La Vitréenne we had a solid game. We opened the scoring in a very weird way, Tobella was left side, he missed his cross, but it went in and we took the lead.. And never dropped it.
A hard game at home against Le Poiré Sur Vie (they were relegated from Ligue 2 the previous year). We fought all the way to get a solid point here.
And finally, a bad draw against Epinal. We had a 2-0 lead with 10 minutes to go and we dropped it the 3 points and somehow managed to get only one..
We're tied at first with Plabennec ! 2 points ahead of the 4th place. Very good opening here.

Less than the previous year. But we didn't have any game televised, maybe it did something for that.
Youth facilities upgraded once again, that's good !
And a more important budget in junior coaching, that'll help to develop the young players we have.
Another time, we sell more season tickets !
I had to set the season expectation to the board :
Avoiding the relegation is an "easy" goal I guess. Especially with the season we had and with the players we recruited.
Still last, but a way better odd than last year. We're being a serious team here.
TRANSFERS :
4 players incoming. And one on loan, but he was already on my team, the great Ronconi. I sold him for 1.2M€ + 50% on the next sale + a 2 year loan on my team !
Here are the screens of the new players :
A good young midfielder !
An interesting wing back
A not so bad wing back with experience
And a quite good striker. I think they're all good signings, I hope they can bring a lot to the team.

Another time, 6 points out of 9 ! Very good month here. Our season is almost perfect, I love it. And my players aren't that good !
5 points away from the 3rd place, I can say it's over for the promotion now !
MAY 2019 :
Bad way to end the season. Two losses, that's hard. Especially the game against Bourg-Péronnas. It costs us 2 places in the final standings.
7th in the end ! That final game is a mess for us. But it's a great season though ! I love this team
This 7th place gives us 380 K€. The 5th would have given us 490K€, too bad for us !
OTHER NEWS :
It was close for the player of the year. Congrats to Jean for taking it !
A new contract for the team. +55K€ compared to the previous one. That's veeeeeeery good !
Another player having international duty in the team. And this time, it's a young player from the academy, it's great
The board also set the budgets for the next season :

Solid month here, 6 points out of 9, this is very good. It helps us a lot to maintain in this league. 4 more goals scored, my strikers are getting a way to score, that's really helpful for the team !
Getting closer to the top 3. That would be huge to do it.. And 14 points ahead of the relegation zone ! I don't know see how we can't stay in this league
MARCH 2018 :
As usual, March starts with the youth intake !
Not a bad draw, but I only signed Racon and Lotiès. I think they're the only ones who can make it to the big team here.
Tougher month than February. But we still manage to get 4 points, that's good ! My team shows some pride here, I like it.
We won't make it to the top 3, but we have a very solid position here ! 6th place, with only 3 points behind the 4th, it would be a great season to finish that high !
And I'll finish with post with some team news !
First of all, the progression of 2 players.
This is Ronconi, the defender I bought last summer for 26K€ ! What a progression he's having here. It's huge.
And here's M'Baye, my goalkeeper from my academy. Great progression too.
Ronconi is so good for his age, that he's been called up to play with France U19 ! Wonderful, huh ?
And, on a negative side, I lost another young player.
Oulare leaves the team for Sedan, a Ligue 2 team. That's bad, but we still got 51K€..

So here we go for this special post about the African Nations Cup !
Slimani show in these two games. We'll need him to have a good run.
GROUP :
A blowout ! Easy victory with a ton of shots ! We even scored more goals than they had shots ! Good start of the competition here. This game allowed two players to broke Algerian records.
Two records for two important players in the team ! Let's hope they'll continue.
Another easy victory, this time without conceding a goal. 9 goals in 2 games, I really like this cup for the moment. And on the bright side we're already qualified for the quarter final. South Africa also won its 2 first games !
A sad loss here ! We have a solid domination once again, but when we conceed 4 goals, we just can't win a game. Too bad for this game. We finished 2nd here and we'll face Cameroon on the next round.
QUARTER FINAL :
Easy victory here ! We knock Cameroon out of THEIR competition. And we also reach the goal of the FA which was getting to the semi-final. Ghana is now on our road to the title !
SEMI FINAL :
That's tough. Really tough. We had a good game, but Belfodil's injury when I couldn't replace him cost us the game. Too bad, but we'll have to step up for one last game against Senegal !
3RD PLACE :
Great way to end the competition. 3rd is good, but I'll have to come back to Africa to win it !
PLAYOFF TREE :
Nigeria wins the Cup, congrats to them.
And as the competition ended, I resigned from Algeria, nothing left to do here for almost 2 years, I don't like it.

A 0-3 loss against Auxerre in the cup.. There was nothing we could do, they were just better. Our run stops here in the fourth round, too bad. But at least we have an undefeated month in the league ! A good win against Avranches, and we won the derby at home against Amiens SC !
We "broke" 2 records with the Auxerre loss (and I would have easily passed on the first one)
Auxerre also wanted my great and young goalie, so I had to make him sign a contract and turn him pro to avoid his departure.
Let's take a look at the standings now
Top 5 now ! And only 2 points away from the third place ! What if we get promoted once again ? I don't think so, with that rollercoaster season, but who knows what my players can do ?
JANUARY 2019 :
Let's start this new year with a "World Football News". And guess what ? Messi-Ronaldo era is over !
Oscar won the Ballon d'or ! Pretty impressive.
And the results, the reason why you're here following me.
Another month without a win, it's killing me ! Especially that Dunkerque game, we blew a 3-1 lead with 15 minutes to go, that's a shame ! But it's a good draw against Arles Avignon who dominated us from the first to the last second.
We have a solid position here with 11 games to go. 13 points ahead of the relegation zone, I like this !

OCTOBER 2018 :
Well, this time it's a perfect month, with a very solid game against Colmar. I took vital points against Vitré, Strasbourg and Cannes who are direct opponents to stay in National. I also won 2 cup games, and we reach 4th round !
We're back in the top 3, that's pretty surprising. But we've done great things in this month. We don't really deserve that 3rd place, but we'll take it !
NOVEMBER 2018 :
I'll start this month with three news :
We're finally back at home ! Ivry's stadium was quite good, but we only got 200 people on "home games", far from the 400+ of last season.
I couldn't retain him.. I received 50K€ nonetheless, that's quite good for the team.
And I couldn't retain N'Diaye either
And let's get to the results now.
This season is a rollercoaster ! Second month without a win, it's harsh, but it's professionnal world though. We'll have to work hard from now on. Only one goal on these 4 games. Wakey wakey strikers, we're not going anywhere without you !
A solid mid-table position. 6 points away from the top 3, but 6 points ahead of the relegation zone too !
ALGERIA :
A good draw against Benin, even if they scored on a penalty, at least we didn't lose !
But real hard this time against Ethiopia. Thanks to the ref, we're able to catch up the victory with a last second penalty ! Meanwhile, Benin did a draw against Sierra Leone !
2 points more than Benin, and our next game is against them. If we don't lose, we're qualified.
NOVEMBER 2018 :
A blowout against Benin ! 6-0, 3 goals for Slimani, what a game we had. Easy qualification here, as I planned.
The last game against Sierra Leone wasn't really important, but the guys took up the 3 points once again. 5 wins and 1 draw, great run here.
The groups for the Cup have been drawn, and here is our :
We'll have to be careful about Burkina Faso (and also South Africa), but if we do our job well, we should qualifiy pretty easily here.

AUGUST 2018 :
2 games, 2 wins. Very lucky against Créteil as they had 8 players injured (and major ones !) for the game. Against Avranches we were dominated, but we did a great hold-up to hold on to the win.
We're on top, nothing much to say after 2 games, it can go easily one way or another.
SEPTEMBER 2018 :
Weeeeeeeell well well. Only 1 win, and it's in French Cup against a 7th tier side. 3 losses and 2 draws in National. After those three losses where I simply didn't exist (especially the derby against Amiens SC), and after the draw against Arles, I decided to change my tactic because it doesn't work anymore in this league.
It went pretty well against Les Herbiers, but we couldn't score. At least we had a good game, the first one of the season !
What a drop here ! Only 1 point ahead of Cannes, it'll be a hard battle to avoid relegation, that could be a thrilling season !
ALGERIA :
SEPTEMBER 2018 :
Two easy wins. I use a really offensive tactic in this group, because it seems really easy. 3 strikers and 2 quite offensive midfielders. It went well, because we had 2 blowouts !
Benin's still here. They're out next game, at home !

First of all, the best player of last season was voted by the fans
What a surprise !
I was offered a new contract (I forgot to take the screen of this), but I've signed in Longeau until 2023 !
The board fixed the goal of the season
Avoiding relegation, not a bad idea.
And here we are for the big big news :
We turn pro ! That's a good thing for the club ! I like this.
A lot of facilities improvement here ! I'm very glad the board decided to do this !
Another big news, we got an improvement of 100 season tickets sale !
NATIONAL :
Pretty used with the odds, we're ranked last, I don't really care about that now.
Almost 900K€ this season for the TV. That sounds good !
A so-so pre-season games. But we faced good teams too.
TRANSFERS :
5 players coming (Brun was already there on loan, I just bought him), one young player leaving on loan.
I think they are pretty good signings to finish not far from the mid table this season.
OTHER NEWS :
The World Cup took place in Russia. 20 years after France beating Brazil in final, Brazil took its revenge !
Algeria wasn't even in the 2nd round and sacked its manager. I applied for the job, just in case and..
So I decided to accept it, because we're 6 months away from the African Nations Cup, and that could be a great thing to qualify for it.
It look like an easy qualification group. We'll see that later..
And finally, a last news about Longueau :
13€ for a ticket, and the club is valued at 4,1M€ !! What an improvement here.

Thanks Dan
Thanks Angelo, but to be fair, I was really lucky too. Paris FC just simply screwed their season in one month while I was winning everything, so it helped me a lot. It was the same in 6th tier when Breteuil simply dropped their lead on me when I was far from them. But I think we all need a bit of luck to be a good coach in this game !

APRIL 2018 :
Once again, a perfect month, thanks to Véret another time ! We have on addiction on his scoring, we'll have to change that next year to have another great scoring forward.
Meanwhile we were having a perfect month, Paris literally cracked under pressure of the promotion. Now WE are having a 4 points lead on them. There are 2 games in May. Just one win, and we're champions ! Let's do it
MAY 2018 :
My players were having too much pressure against Avion. A 1-0 loss, and in the mean time, Paris FC won their game.
But against Reims we had a solid performance, and we grabbed that win. A 2-0 game which puts us in National !
Here we are, it's now official, we're champions and promoted into the third tier of French pyramid. What a run until there !
The final standings, we finished with only a 1 point lead on Paris FC but that's enough ! On the 7 reserves teams, 5 have finished on the bottom 6 ! Pretty impressive.
We received a 50K€ bonus for the 1st place
On the resultats, we could see that Véret was a beast, and the seasons' stats prove it too
Best average rating, 9 goals more than the 2nd top scorer. Massive !
The board already set up the budgets for the next season. Thanks to the two great runs in a row and the great average attendance, we have something real good here
