Why have Blackpool just given me 22.29m to spend in January? That is 'Top Half Finish' aswell.

Because the finances there are ridiculous

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

90th minute Own goal drew nurnberg level, thats my first points dropped as the manager of FC Kaiserslautern

what makes it worse was the guy who scored the own goal was subbed on by me 10 minutes before

Need to change my tactics for Southampton, any ideas?

A win against Hamburg secures my place into at least a Europa League spot.


The game is in my favour too, we beat them away from home.

WERE GONNA WIN THE LEAGUE, WERE GONNA WIN THE LEAGUE!

I play a 4-2-3-1 with them...


Short passing

2nd in League One w/Bournemouth, about to play the JPT final v Carlisle. Sweet.

What player roles do you use?

Another 0-0 draw

promotion chances are lessening each game at this rate.

Well I must say I am very proud of the team. Two wins vs HSV and a draw against Milan sees us get into the Europa League. This should definitely boost the reputation of the Armenian League.

Fantastic win. McDermott is exceptional.

Pip thats quality, such a hard group aswell

I usually holiday the tough away games just so I don't get pissed off when we get raped, but it's such a pleasant surprise when you holiday one of those games to avoid getting worked up over a bad performance, your team wins.

Not only that but Lasogga scored two as well.

Finished 7th in the league, it doesn't say I have EL football next year but that Pokal final is yet t be played, maybe that's why.

Both teams in it area above me so if I'm not mistaken I'm getting EL football no matter what.

Hehe. Tbf, Hamburg was shit. These are their results in this campaign

lol they are shit, that gives me hope as I may be heading for 3rd place which means a play off game against Hamburg or Koln (who are heading for 16th in bundes. lo lo lo)

Bah, Juve in the EL. Winnable, but it'll be tough.


EDIT: 4 million tansfer budget. Sweet!

Fuck taking the job if nothing can make you happy then

Sent 7 out out my 11 firs teamers out on a 1 week holidays as they were knackered

Next game, with 7 backup players, win 6-2 against Sheffield Wednesday

It all depends on what players you are playing with. Make sure their attributes are good for that role. Also check the reports to see what the assistant recommends.

My wings lack depth, need players like him.

The average age of my squad is 24, quite happy with that.

I hate spending so much money but that's what I have to do to get players that are already good

Kuled's trying to create discussions

I'm talking to myself though

If you play as Saints, play 4-4-2, with AML and AMR.

Don't know what happened, not long ago i was in the red but ah well

Wages.

I always leave my budget like that, finances would be secure like that.
