February Update Solid month, nothing great but solid. Transfers We've signed Jake Hesketh on loan from Southampton on deadline day. He will, most likely replace Coppinger in the starting lineup as he is not natural in an attacking midfield position....

Michael Patterson just completed the season in the year 2016 managing Doncaster in the League 1 in their FM Career Finding Glory - Doncaster Rovers

January Update I'd call that a pretty good month if I don't say so myself. Tactic I held off mentioning my tactic to evaluate its performance and it appears to be fairly solid. Considering the team's immense physical abilities a defensi...

December Update Part II I've landed a job at Doncaster in League 1. This club is a mess at the moment despite sitting mid table currently. The finances are a mess as the club is nearly £12m in debt (I've changed my currency for realism pur...

December Update I took us long enough. That's only our 3rd win this season and I hope that more are to follow. It was even better considering Bunley is a fierce local rival apparently (still American) Even after the win in the previous game this...

As you can see above preseason has gone very well. As much as I appeared to have confidence to have in my tactic, I was actually very surprised in how well it performed. The real test was the game against MK Dons, as they are in the Championship with us....

The first thing I've noticed as I begin to evaluate my players at Preston and develop a tactic is that my top three players, according to my assistant, are two center backs, Paul Huntington and Tom Clarke, and my keeper, Anders Lindegaard (On loan fr...

Preston North End currently find themselves in the Championship, and the lower end at that. My goal, as manager, is to bring them back to the glory they saw at the beginning of the English soccer (football, sorry I'm American) system.
