Signed a formidable striker today for 600k.

New wing back is now next on the list as soon as a few funds are raised!

What are everyones ambitions for next season? With this team, I think I will be ok in my league if I decide to concentrate on the cup. I want to get to the 5th round at least. Another season or two until its time for a promotion push from me.

Lads,

I got relegated to the bottom division after getting promoted last season. My players abilities didn't change all season. Why? How do I get them to improve?

Training. The younger the player the quicker they improve.

On paper my division looks easier this year no team relegated down into mine. My midfield has improved a lot in last season so after 3 2nd place finishes looking to stay injury free & get 1st place finally.

Also in the bottom division but I only got started last season. Building the squad up a bit now. Had a 5-0 win in the first round of the cup yesterday.

finished top this year but lost in the qualifiers.
Which means another season in one of, if not the toughest division 4s

Won my first game in III today 4-0. My midfieldrating was passable(low) and the rest of my team got inadequate(high)

Gambled with MOTS today & lost 1-4 to last seasons league winner. Promotion pretty much gone now so time to clear out squad & build for the future...

Lost my first game to last years winners of the league. Every time he beats me its 1-0 and the worst game ever cause he plays 5-3-2 counter attack.
I got a sweet 17yo irish trainy with solid PM.

How long does it take to train defending to a 17 y/o.

My 19yo trainee popped to brilliant today.

What kind of star rating does he get now?

I got knocked out of the cup at 2nd round last week which was a disaster. Gambled with weakened team & will cost bit of cash in gate receipts.

If a 17 y/o was playing 1st team then he might improve twice a season?

Have won 2 out of 2 in the league with big game next weekend.

Playing Jaime Jennings' new team in the cup this wednesday. FC Gortatleva. Should be fun :o

I ended up beating Jennings III team 2-0. He didn't get a kick all might.

Got knocked out in round 4 though against II side Achill Rovers. No real surprise. Season seems to be shaping up nicely.

5-0 walkover today as opposition only fielded 8 players. I would won easily anyway.

Have any of you's trained Goalkeepers ? I think they are the ones that pop the most often.

My trainess for PM are quite good
17y/o - Formid PM - possible Irish U20 international i think.
17y/o - Excellent PM, Passable winger & defending
18 y/o - Formid PM - Solid defending.
