#290721 Around Europe Backwards - from Wales to Austria

An almost perfect month for us.
We dominated our games against Haverfordwest, Llanelli and Aberystwyth. Our defence has been holding firm. Switched to a 5-3-2 with wingbacks after the Bala game, and it's going well.
The Ton Pentre one was disappointing, I put out a first team and went 2-1 up. They had three shots and scored all three, we had 19 and only converted three, we were all over them all game. Then the penalty shoot out defeat was just sickening. Will have to be next season for this cup

Oh it is awful, I mean TNS have players on 1000-1500 pounds. My top earner is Casey Thomas on 350. Escaping from this league might even need me to take the TNS job if they have a bad season. Hopefully I don't have to resort to that.

Depending on car size, it takes most people in the UK about 55-90£ to fill their tank if its pretty low.

I hope so, if you don't have England/Scotland/NI/Ireland loaded it is very hard to get decent players in.
Bellamy has been class at the age of 16. Hopefully we can get a CM in in January and we can get out of this league!!!

The Afan Lido game was fantastic and our new tactic (self-made) worked brilliantly in this game, with 5 separate scorers chipping in from all over the pitch. My personal highlight was Port Talbot born Thomas notching, he was having a bit of a dry spell and hopefully this will encourage him.
We have some easier games coming up and hopefully we will be able to stay in the top 3-4.

Tried to get some big clubs to play us at home to raise some much needed revenue but I didn't want to play too many so it didn't completely kill morale.
Many of these transfers were agreed before the end of the season, the transfer budget offered to us was the same as last year, 2.6k a week on the proviso that we challenge for the title. A ridiculously low amount to challenge for the title in this year so we'll see how we go. I was still unable to bolster the CM as without the English lower leagues to feed from, the players simply aren't there. Enough pessimism! On to the signings.
Outs: I let people I felt were overpaid leave, this included 40 year old striker Lloyd-Williams, in hindsight I would have liked to have retain Lee John but I was mistaken about how much money the board would give me, and I cannot get the CM's I wanted in.
Ryan Astles (19 - CB) - A good player in this division now, will be a leading player in a couple of years
Lee McArdle (21 - CB) - Not quite as good as Astles, but still a good prospect
Josh Evans (20 - DL) - Back-up LB but has good potential.
Josh Bellamy (16 - AMC) A great prospect had to fight for him, will get the odd game this year. Being retrained to CM to help in this weak area.
Anthony Finselbach (21 - CM) - A decent CM, young enough but no word beater.
Josh Knight (22 - ST) - A good striker, will rotate with Thomas and Frater, is a great striker now and will only get better.
Kye Edwards (21 - CB) - A first team CB, will be a starter and will also improve.
Casey Thomas (22 - ST) - My marquee signing, Thomas should bang them in this year and I was very glad to get him. I perhaps misused CM money to get him in, but he always scored against me last year.
Jamie McDaid (19 - AMR/MR) - A backup winger that can do well at AMR/AML and will provide cover for Roberts and O'Sullivan. Will develop into a quality winger in this league.
Ryan Griffiths (24 - GK) - First choice keeper, still not great in terms of current ability (who can be on this meager wage budget?!), but will become even better.
Kyle Cockings (18 - DL/MC) A back up player with good potential
Sean Eardley (24 - DR/L) A utility and back up player
Reasonably happy with the team. Still concerned about the midfield, sorted the weak defence out but I'll be looking out for bargains throughout the season to strengthen this area.

Carmarthen (H): (L) 0-1 - Disappointed with the lack of chances we created in this game.
Newtown (A): (W) 2-1 - Harling's strong header gave us a good start after 8 minutes. Williams equalised for Newtown on 40 minutes. I was worried that this might be a stalemate until James Bloom smashed the ball in from another corner from 2 yards.
Connah's Quay (H): (W) 2-0 - We dominated this from start to finish, but it took us until the second half to break the deadlock. CQ only had three shots all game, with none on target. Jenkins (46 mins) finished neatly after being played into the area and Frater (66) later finished a superb Green lofted cross with a close-range header.
Bala (A): (L) 0-2 - A sickening loss.
Carmarthen (A): (W) 1-0 - A tight game with little chances, both teams only having one shot on target. We finished ours courtesy of O'Sullivan from AMR (8)
Only 5 more games to go, I'll play these tomorrow and get the end of the season table uploaded! Already agreed some transfers for the next season, for great players that will be out of contract in the summer. Stay tuned.

Craig Frater - 22- ST - I needed a striker and he was the first person I turned to, cracking in my Haverfordwest aborted save. Will be rotating with Lloyd-Williams.
Sam Heenan - 21 -MC/AMR - I also bought same in my other game, instead of being a first team player like he was at HWest, he will be a squad/backup player. On a pay as you play deal.
Jonathon Hood - 21- DC - 4th Choice CB this season but with 5 stars for potential, you can see why I jumped at the chance to get him in now.
Chris O'Sullivan - 30 - AMR/WBR - a 4 star winger in this league, Chris has ability and has come in and done a job from the off.
David Maguire - 22 - GK - Comfortably first choice keeper, not great in himself but has 4 star potential and was a damn-site better than what we had.
Colin Rossiter - 17 - DL/WBL - A youngster who won't feature this season or next but might turn into a decent player. He's only on a 5er a week.)
Tyrrell Webbe - 21 - ST - 4th Choice striker but has the potential to be a leading player in this division, he is only on a pay as you play deal.

I was happy with my performance, we didn't squeeze into the top 6 group (only a win every game and results going my way would have ensured that), but we are much safer and hopefully on course to finish 7th, the highest possible finish because the league splits into two after 22 games.
The win against Airbus was very satisfactory and the team rode their luck at times, the only difference being Lloyd-Williams that managed to finish two of our meager ration of chances.
The draw against Afan Lido was frustrating but I really didn't have the squad to compete with them in this game and I was probably lucky to secure the point.
The win at Bangor was probably undeserved, but a defensive mix-up allowed Harling to race into the box and slot past the keeper. The draw at Prestatyn is the worst result of them all for me, they aren't a great team. For some reason my team, which had up until now been fairly sturdy had completely capitulated for two early goals, we managed to get two goals back but I was still aggrieved.
We simply couldn't carve chances out against high-flying Aber but I was pleased with the win and the clean sheet against Newtown. The cup defeat against the team with no vowels was more annoying than upsetting, I have an injury crisis at the moment and the players that I brought in in Jan we largely cup-tied so I was left with an awful squad with many players having to play out of position.

They club are already building for next season and have told me I won't be judged on this year's performance, but I hope to get back up to around the middle of the table and maybe sneak into the top 6, although we are 10 points adrift from 6th with 6 to play and this may not be possible.
We are out of the Welsh Prem cup. but still in the 4th round of Welsh Cup.
As you can see several positions need addressing in January. Most notably at GK, MC, AML, AMR, ST.
I will be playing a 4-5-1 cum 4-3-1, with a flat 4, 3 CM's AML, AMR and ST (Target man)
Stay tuned for updates tomorrow evening.

It's not just the scouting issue, (I found some decent players myself), it's more losing 1-0 at half-time, you know exactly what to do and what to say in the real FM. But there's nothing you can do in FMC. Then you lose 1-0. It's just daft.
But yes will be holidaying until a job becomes available and I will change all the updates later tonight.
#39015 Around Europe Backwards - from Wales to Austria

Yeah I'm sure, unfortunately FMC, is completely unplayable. The scouting is awful (my scout only found 13 players, the customary pre-knowledge and then didn't find ANY at all when I assigned him). Also I can't tell my feckless idiots to do what I want.
I really don't know how you do it Dan.
I'm going to start this challenge again, and I am doing to do in on the normal FM. Sorry for wasting everyone's time so far, stay tuned and I'll start this again tonight.

It's already tough going, but I'm hoping to avoid relegation and thus the sack ultimately in the first season. So hopefully it's a short "wall".
Jamie Price is a handy player actually and will be a first teamer for me this season, either at LB, LM or AML.

It's fab.
Heard that even non Bristol City fans find it a great read.
A man that managed 647 games 351 goals for City. 6 games and 5 goals for England.
Turned down moves to Chelsea, Spurs, Liverpool and AC Milan to stay part time. England selectors over-looked him due to this status.
Scored the goal that enabled England to go to Sweden 1958, but he wasn't taken with the squad.
A great story
