2021/22: Ipswich Town
Sky Bet Championship - 1st
Wow now that's how you win a league title!! 104 goals, and a new record of 107 points on the board as we blitzed the opposition and secured promotion to the Premier League.
It's crazy to thin...

2020/21: Ipswich Town
Sky Bet Championship - 17th
I picked up Ipswich Town in the relegation zone, three points adrift but with 21 games remaining. The first order of business was to resolve the financial issues the club were having. With no fewer tha...
[justify]2020/21: Coventry City
Sky Bet League One - 1st
Well I didn't get to the end of the season with Coventry City after all! We were walking the league, and the squad looked okay, but I wasn't sure if they'd be ready for the step u...
Thanks for commenting Ice Man; it's a tough call because my heart will always be at Coventry and looking to develop them. I'm not sure if I will actively look for a move, but if an interesting opportunity arises then it will have to be considere...
I absolutely loved Brisbane when I was in Australia travelling! Fantastic place to visit, and looks like you're doing a good job with the Roar!!
Fantastic work Sam, I had a fun career with Wimbledon on FM15, and it's great to see you bringing these guys to the fore... where are MK hiding at the moment?
2019/20: Coventry City
Sky Bet League Two - 1st
Well that was a lot more straight forward than it should have been. Didn't ever really look like we'd miss out on promotion, and managed to go the whole season without losing at home.
A few you...

Thanks Dan, appreciate the early comment! This was the very first save I started when I got FM, and I've had a couple of others run alongside but not invested into it. This one has been fun, but by the time I decided to post it as a career, I'd...
2018/19: Boreham Wood
Sky Bet League One - 1st
Another incredible season, and I really cannot fathom how easy this was. Just two defeats all season, 130 goals scored and 108 points! Really overwhelmed by the performance of my players.

2017/18: Boreham Wood
Sky Bet League Two - 1st
We got some investment, and boy did it help! A fantastic season where we battled it out with Bury, Portsmouth and Swindon for top spot at times before pulling away in the last two months of the season.

2016/17: Boreham Wood
Vanarama National League - 1st
A move to Boreham Wood was next up, as the club had recently secured some investment and they looked a decent challenge. Despite finishing just above Torquay United last season, they were a side I kn...
2015/16: Torquay United
Vanarama National League - 14th
So my first role in football came at Torquay United, where I had a short stint for half a season. Picking them up in the relegation zone, we had a successful end of season as we finished 14th. I c...

I always enjoy games where I meander around, working at different clubs and building them up. I never intentionally look to move on at a specific point unless I feel it is the right move for me.
I began this save as unemployed, with Sunday League exper...
I've never attempted this type of challenge before, so it will be really interesting to see how you get on with it
Akpom should be brilliant in the Greek league, good luck for your second season!!
Could you imagine the outrage if this was to happen? Should be a very interesting story to follow... good luck Dan!

Mesut Ozil
We added Ozil in January for £20m, which was an expensive transfer but a boost to the squad. He's not managed to cement a place in the side this season, and to be honest we pro...

So I've been looking for one last fling with FM15 before the new game comes out, and I decided that I'd let the computer decide who I should manage. After randomising for a Premier League side, Norwich City was my destination.
