Good start so far, but what I think would be better is a screenshot of the actual league at the end of each month. Other than that mate, this is really good indeed. KUTGW đź‘Ť
…but a challenge! Business end of the season, squad depth I think might prove to be decisive. Good luck mind.
2024-2025 Season: Ready for the big kick-off, the real thing is here We're in the final week of pre-season, and the season begins on Saturday afternoon. Nine months of highs and lows await us. It's also the second season of my reign here and I'm...
Always been a mystery to me how they have so many teams from the South of England in NLN. Robbie Savage's Macc Lads setting a pace out front but really congested in places 3 to 8, good to see you are in the mix as anything can happen.Uppa Club!
2024-2025 Season: Preparations are complete.. Eleven days separate us from the start of season number two, where we are hoping to build on what we achieved last season: a sixth placed league finish and teh capture of the Steel and Sons Cup to The Dub...
Interesting choice in career here mate, but not sure why you had to bankroll them with a healthy bank balance at the start but that's your call. Doing a proper LLaMa save with The Bulls would make for a great story especially with a club like them wh...
Season 2024-2025: Thriller under the lights whilst there's more movement We geared up for the first pre-season game with no further additions to the treatment room for Head Physio Martyn McCarthy to deal with apart from Owen Madine who is recovering...
Any chances of some screenshots from the first two seasons and the current one? Would add some life to the story.
2024-2025 Season: We never stop… were the words from Ange Postecoglou when questioned about his Celtic's side mentality in games and I get that completely. He's absolutely bang on the proverbial money for sure is the Antipodean manager of Tottenham H...
2024-2025 Season: Not so Immaculata under the lights As I pulled into the car park at the Grosvenor Recreation Centre, I was asked about my planned team selection. Fans had heard what I was planning, and one or two of them thought it April 1st come e...
2024-2025: A pre-season experiment in the offing Six of our squad at the moment are attracting the attentions of other sides. Since all have no official contracts with us, they could all sign for anyone else and we would not get a penny in transfer f...
2024-2025 Season: Maintaining the tempo Two pre-season matches completed, and two pre-season wins. Can't ask for anything better than this, and especially with no injuries to anyone to deal with. Obviously this is not going to last forever, nothing d...
Gutted that they’re not going pro, just hope you don’t get battered by clubs with better budgets. That’s what happened to me and Edinburgh City mate. Some good recruits, should be enough for a good mid-table as minimum. Can always ask board again in...
2024-2025 Season: Preparations continue…After that pleasing outcome in the first pre-season outing, it was time to prepare for the second one. I mean, the only real grumble of sorts was the concession of a late goal to ensure clean sheets in both halves b...
Looking forward to the move to the Transport Ground at Meadowhead happening soon. Club playing in Alfreton doesn't sit right from a local perspective, but good luck with NLN. Finishing mid-table would be great, anything higher would be outstanding. G...
2024-2025 Season: Blowing off the cobwebs… So after a week's training under their collective belts, we headed to Greenisland for our first pre-season outing of the new campaign. For those who don't know where Greenisland is, well it's a small town of...
Kyle my man, Congratulations on making back to back promotions. Helluva achievement. This has similarities with my FM19 save where I started out with Edinburgh City in the Third Division. Unfortunately on that save, things went sour when the board re...
2024-2025 Season: Back to the grindstone…So England, under Gareth Southgate, have finally won a major honour for the first time since 1966. The scenes in Berlin were unreal, so much so that bars were drunk dry in some places. However, I wasn't in the mood...
Look forward to this @Ghelfi đź‘Ť
2024-2025 Season: It all boiled down to this… England are in another major final of a major tournament, and as we all know…if they don't screw it up in a semi-final then there's every chance they will do it in the game when the actual trophy is on th...
I assume this is written in Portuguese so I've used Google Translate to understand it, and this is what it said: "Joinville Esporte Clube legend Ghelfi Junior was born in Joinville (SC) on April 5, 2002. He enjoyed enormous success at Joinville EC, w...
2024-2025 Season: Climb Ev'ry mountain…. With apologies to Julie Andrews as well as Rodgers and Hammerstein.The Euros are drawing to a close as we went into the midweek semi-finals, the Netherlands against Italy in Munich's Allianz Stadium and Gareth...
2024-2025 Season: More Euro 2024 musings…With things seemingly all good back in South Belfast, I continued to stay in Germany to watch some more of the tournament. In fact my presence was being noted by some journalist from the Belfast Telegraph, who wrot...
2024-2025 Season: A catch up on things back home…Whilst I was travelling around Germany, watching the Euros, I made sure I never missed out on developments back in South Belfast by having frequent Zoom calls with my assistant manager Kyle (McDowell) who w...
2023-2024 Season: Off to the Euros…So armed with a new contract and a productive end of season meeting with the Chairman, I knew I needed a break to recharge the old body batteries ahead of coming back to South Belfast refreshed for season two. Entrusting...
Nice act of loyalty there, shows a high bar of commitment to the cause. That's a tight top five at the end of the first half of the season, and you're well in the mix. Strength in depth might be crucial.
2023-2024 Season: More improvements As the players were away on holiday, I was determined to try and push things through as part of my personal mission to try and make strides forwards. This involved some discussion time with Ken. I had three main th...
2023-2024 Season: What happened elsewhere as June arrives In this post, we recap what happened in the season just completed at home and elsewhere in some of Europe's leagues. Northern Ireland: The Premiership title was won for a second successiv...
2023-2024 Season: Final Standings and it's four in and five (realistically) out…. The season is now officially over… The last two matches of the season saw Intermediate League, in other words our league, runners-up Warrenpoint Town take on Champ...
2023-2024 Season: And that's a wrap! “And now the end is near, and so I face the final curtain…” Not fully but the end of the first season in charge of PSNI, and boy it's been a heck of a ride for sure. We've had highs and lows for sure, and hav...
Jaden Heskey, as in big Emile's lad? Nice capture to grab someone off the PL heavyweight, I assume it's a season long loan right?Hopefully he's a bit of a chip off the old block as in a target man who you can make things happen around him and he thro...
2023-2024 Season: 'Away the Lads! It had been a very good week for the team and me as well as a rule. Not had we found the winning groove again by seeing off Coagh United at The Dub, but from a personal standpoint: I had agreed terms on a new one-yea...
Keep up the adventure mate, good mix of write up and graphics alike. Like that skin you're using, what's it called?
Well done securing the title mate. Some effort indeed from Dowson, sure he was an apprentice at Sunderland back in the day. Sounds like he's your own personal Jamie Vardy.What's next on the horizon? National League North? Northern Premier Leagu...
2023-2024 Season: Signed, sealed and delivered. Post-game Coagh, I was surprised to see the Chairman walking towards me with a bit of a smile on his face. What was he smiling for? Was it showing a sigh of relief that he was happy that we had arrested...
2023-2024 Season: Slide gets arrested… The mood in the dressing room after the Banbridge Town home defeat was one of anguish. We knew full well that we had blown a serious chance to possibly get a top five finish with that defeat, and although the Bo...
2023-2024 Season: If you don't take your chances you will lose…. So we're into the final month of season one at PSNI in the Intermediate League, aka the third tier of Northern Irish football. And safe to say, it has definitely been a challenge and a...
2023-2024 Season: The final month of the season… March ended with Moyola Park playing their outstanding game at home to Rathfriland Rangers. The lowly placed visitors surprised the Park by leaving Coleraine with a 1-0 away win. So we start April...
2023-2024 Season: Derby day despair as disallowed goal costs us Imagine the scene after the game against Distillery seven days previous, it felt like someone had squeezed all the air out of the balloon. We had seen our 11 game unbeaten run, 10 in the...
We will, Kinda knew the run would come to an end eventually….but hey ho!
2023-2024 Season: All good things come to an end We had two weeks between the Rathfriland game and our next match which was a crunch home match against Lisburn Distillery. It was a definitely one of those that you could call a six-pointer of sorts. W...
Incredible so far, you have really made a mark at the Coach and Horses Ground and are seemingly destined for the next tier up. Would be oh so nice to tie it up with win after win. You got this mate!
2023-2024 Season: March arrived with us still riding the proverbial crest of a winning wave. However, we are still guarding ourselves against the “C” word; complacency and know that we are there to be shot at. That's the problem when you are on...
Season 2023-2024: Tobemore become the latest scalp as the unbeaten run goes on and on… Just eight games remain in our first season in charge of PSNI, and it's been a real rollercoaster of emotions for sure. We started off pretty well, suffered a down...
That's some window, but you obviously thought the squad needed overhauling. Good on you for having the cojones to do that. Here's hoping the new look Rose gel and you can start to create your own brand of history. Maybe you can cope being semi-pro fo...
Good solid start, let's see how far this goes.
I like the look of this story already, be interesting to see how it develops.
2023-2024 Season: Late equaliser but the run extends to eight and counting… With a fortnight between the last game and the next, it was a good idea to recharge the batteries before we go again. Just nine games remain before the season reaches it's co...
Like Matt, I am interested in this concept. Managing in Sheffield as well as it looks like at Sporting Lisbon? Are these two separate saves or two managerial careers running in tandem on one save? Just wondered… Still a decent start, hopefully you ca...
