OverlyHappyHobo Activity

Quick storytime post. I was in need of reinforcements within the defence, especially at left back where we were lacking in proper quality. I browsed the market and found a player who wanted to be a first teamer. Although his stats didn't look good,...

October 2017 Chelmsford City FC An update on how the rest of the month went. Fixtures: I'm happy it wasn't a loss, but this game was a frustrating one. They took the lead with a quick finish within the opening minutes, and from there seemed t...

Hopefully the journey is as intriguing as the destination r96skinner. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Club...

Apologies for the confusion bigmattb28, that is the hall of fame for managers in Africa. The goal is to top that, but also try and have a couple of European adventures along the way. I've used claassen's amazing megapack on FM18, so I have pret...

A few days ago, I was looking at a video talking about some of Africa's best footballers. You know, the usual gang. Weah, Drogba, etc. But then I realised something. There is not a single manager in the top 5 leagues that is from an African country....

A Road-to-Glory to become a great African manager.

In 2014, a documentary was released by British filmmakers Mike Brett and Steve Jamison, titled "Next Goal Wins". The documentary was based around the American Samoan national soccer team, which were one of the weakest in football at the time. 13...

An American Samoan Road to Glory

This month, I learned an important lesson in lower league football - don't trust your reserve players. Why? May I present Exhibit A. Remember how I said that Montgomery were doing quite well? Well, we played them, and it didn't go well. We g...

7 games into the season so far, lets see whats been happening. Solid month, unbeaten in the league, but can't say it was unexpected. Liam Blake has been fantastic, scoring in 5 out of the 7 games and having 8 goals overall. The 7-2 over Dolgellau...

With the season starting, might as well look at the stuff I did. The lads. Still getting to know each other, but looks like a strong bunch who can compete for the title this season. Sam Tattum looks like the star of the team, and Liam Blake looks amaz...

Was feeling a bit bored with FM19, and really like using the extended database on FM18, so here I am. Welcome to Brecon Northcote. Here's a little bit about them. Not very informative, I know. Basically a random amateur club with a young hist...

Kinda bored of FM 19 so bringing it back to FM 18. Just for fun

September's done, time to update. vs AFC Hurst II: We first went to AFC Hurst II, where we went down within 10 minutes, but fought back courtesy of a brace from George Burton, as well as goals for Galliford and Sodje. vs East Grinstead Town III:...

Ahead of the first game of the season, thought I might update on what the club looks like now. My first team. I'm very happy with it. A good blend of talent and experience, potential and ability. Key players include Norwegian defender Snorre Stra...

Me. A legend in the making? Ciao!

Have struggled to start a save on here, third time lucky hopefully? Fairwarp FC Have seen this save lurking around quite a few forums, so thought I might give it a go. Premise is pretty simple - I'm in charge of Fairwarp, who are the worst playabl...

22 tiers of English Football. A lifetime. Which one runs out first?

Lots of things to tell you about, so lets get into it. Fixtures: Somalie Cup: A good victory, and a good way to start off the competitive season. We welcomed mid-table outfit Muqdisho to the Mogadishu Stadium, and we came away with three points on t...

Interesting place to manage, Malaysia. Nice to see an Indian in your team as well! Will be following.

Ok restarting the series now, hopefully will be able to continue it. I will be adding a new rule - I have to go up the FIFA World rankings, just to make it a little bit harder. New club is Elman, the premier club in Somalia. Will be looking forward to...

Hey my save seems to not be working anymore, so I will look to restart this save, hopefully will be able to update on that soon. Apologies

October's fixtures. A solid win, and first of the season. Lung Moon are one of the worse teams in the division, so the victory was expected. A brace from new signing Lai Kak Yi was excellent to see. Hopefully the first of many more. Another so...

Let's get into the fixtures. Bore draw. Nothing really happened. This is one of the better teams in the competition, so I'll take it. Did we lose? Yeah. Do I care? Not really. This is the top team in the country, with access to one of th...

With the first game of the season coming up , I thought it might be a good time to look at the squad. Lots of good players, lots of average ones, lots of talent. This is an interesting squad. Could be quite good if used well. The tactic I will be...

Lets give a little bit of background to our guy. Born in Chennai, Raghav has had a rather quiet life so far. He lived the first few years of his life in India, before moving to Singapore. He started his NS age 18 and finished when he was 20. Along the...

India's a pretty big country. 7th largest by land, 2nd largest by population. We have a long, great history, rich culture and large metropollitan cities. We also have one of the most vibrant sporting scenes in the world. We have one of, if not, the...

A worldwide RTG. Have some fun, make memories and win some stuff

On to Feb and March, cause the latter only had one competitive game. A poor result, and a poor way to exit the tournament. Ballymena have knocked us out in all three cups this season. Matthew Shelvin absolutely dominating proceedings, continuing his...

Right, so let's get into the fixtures for January Not a bad way to introduce yourself to the club, if I do say so myself. Allen's brace had put us in complete control by the end of the first half, and there was only one winner at that point....

Just to quickly update you on the club, for those of you who don't know them. Nice to see that "the world's eyes are on me". No pressure lad. Also 7th in the league, which isn't too far off our expectations, but not the best re...

Thanks DNZY, appreciate it! All right. I should probably update you on what's happening. Had to wait till December to be able to find a job free for me, but finally! And not a small job either, in the Danske Bank Premiership, with Glentoran. Don...

If you saw this series title and clicked the link expecting a run-of-the-mill Man United save with painfully defensive football and not many notable trophies (cough cough), you would be wrong on all three counts This is Fergus McShane. He is a 39 year...

A Northern Ireland Road to Glory. Just a little fun really
