Update on my game;

Just finished the 2013-14 season, was toying with playoffs for a lot of the season till had a few key injuries, so ended up 9th.

Im stuck in League 2 having brought my team up from the Blue Square South though.

So gotta build on my team for next season and get promotion!

My key players are;

Tamer Mitchell (ST) - 48 apps, 47 goals, 12 assists, 11 motm this season.
Tamas Szekeres (ST) - 38 apps, 33 goals, 14 assists, 9 motm this season.
Lucian Sanmartean (AMC) - 37 apps, 8 goals, 16 assists this season.

Tamer Mitchell has an impressive scoring record in his career;

104(4) apps, 90 goals, 22 assists and 11 motm with an average rating of 7.61, which isnt bad for a 22 year old!

Im gonna aim to get to premiership and win a few things before FM09, atm its going slowly.. but once i get into League 1 i can attract more players i guess! Got super Simon Davies though!

Had an offer earlier for Leiscter in Championship, £850k wages, £11m budget. But turned it down, good/bad?

Wow that is some forward line you have there :D

You did right to turn down the job at Leicester. Stick to 'your' team, you will have made. It was a decent offer though... £11m to spend for a Championship side is'nt too shabby at all.
 
Could you guys suggest some good players I could get at Plymouth so I could push for promotion?


Thanks



Dare Vrsic (starts at poli 1921) is a good player may cost a million or two but scores a lot of goals. signed him for southampton and he scored 30 in his first season from midfield
 
Right here we go.

A whole host of additional nations loaded, all your usual Bulgaria , Mexico etc.

No players what so ever!

Transfer - £50,000

Repuatation @ 2000 (Boston is 1900)

Yeah, banging em in for fun.

This season is different though.

Having a terrible season.

Was 23rd for a while, but now rising slowly.

One of the forwards from last season is atm;

18 apps, 22 goals, 8 assists.

Got a few people on 14 this time, playing 3 strikers;

AMC; 21 apps, 15 goals, 7 assists.

FC; 15 apps, 14 goals, 10 assists.

ST; 26 apps, 14 goals, 4 assists.

Not a bad attack, but then theres my 'keeper'....

28 apps, 52 let in...hmm!

Although, did have VERY bad start, lost 6-0 a couple times?!

Now im 18th, 34 pts, and then playoffs are at 43 points which is do-able.

Guys

If anyone is bored with their current game then I might have the answer. I have a database where every player starts on a free transfer.

So, if anyone is interested, let me know.
