Default (SHC) From Home, to Home! (In five steps!)

Running on CM01/02, since it will be a bit faster then FM. I must also add, I'm a bad speller, so don't say how bad a Speller I am, ok?

After making it past School and Collage, I decided to get a job. A job, that took me ages to get. I'd always been interested in Football. And while everyone was Supporting Rangers, Celtic, Aberdeen etc (did I mention I was Scottish?) I supported, Queens Park. Maybe it was the fact you could get into Hampden Park for a cheap fee, maybe it was the fact I felt that Queen's Park was a royal, and rich team. How wrong was I, once better then the Old Firm, Queen's Park are now struggling in the 3rd divison (you can't get relegated from the 3rd divison, CELEBRATE GOOD TIMES, COME ON, dududududududu!)

Oh, back to my job carrer. After qualifying as a Manager, I ask around for jobs, Including Queens Park, and I was in luck their manager got the sack, yippie! Anyway, after a grand total of two people going for the job, including me, I got it. Don't ask how, the other manager was meant to be quite good, but hey, Thats Life! and its great.
Or is it? When I asked for a transfer budget, they gave me £100 pounds. £100! Yeah, so I ended up spending it on dinner.....where was I?

Tech Stuff: Game 01/02
Leagues Running: Scottish, English, N.Irealnd (Don't Ask), Spain, Italy, Portugal, Japan

Step 1 Goals: Get to SPL and win it
Win at least one other cup
Go to Spain, Italy or Portugal!

Its gonna be hard!

The key areas I thought needed Improvement were the Goalkeepers, no back-ups, and the only Goalie we had, was a 19 year old guy worth 7k. Allan Smith his name is, but I have a feeling he is Underated, hes ace, but I still need a back-up, and with no money, I did what all lower-league managers do.......RUN AROUND AND PANIC....or just loan people, I put in around 20 loan offers, 4 of them were accepted, one actually came....great.

Pre-Season Results:
Cowdenbeath 3 - 2 Queens Park
Queens Park 1 - 1 Ross County
Queens Park 0 - 0 Shrewsbury

Not bad, but not good either, we have a chance in the first round of the League Cup, facing East Fife, also in D3, so it might be ok, lets see!

League Cup 1st Round

With a stadium that can hold 50,000 people, I thought we'd have more then 451 people showing up, anyway it was an alright game, despite it being won at the last minute. Our own Carbury got a goal just before Half Time, before East Fife's Allan, got a goal back. It turned boring and nothing happened in Extra-Time, to go to Pens. We won 4-2 and I can't be bothered telling you who scored and who missed, I'll just tell you that we didn't miss one. Some person I am, not telling you that Carbury, Gallacher, Canning and Miller scored, how rude. Oh, I seemed to have forgot to tell you my name, well its !@&%$£ @!£%&.

Queens Park News

The title seems to have a kinda ring to it, eh?

Ex-W.B.A and Cambridge midfielder Peter Butler joins Queens Park on a Player/Assistant Manager role. The 34-year old midfielder, who was realised by Halifax last season, has a lot of Experience to is name, should be good.

And Queens Park get £300k! Unluckily its not for Transfers, which is a shame.

Scottish Divison 3, Match 1

First game of the season, and 741 fans came to Hampden to see Queens Park face Stirling. And the Home fans weren't dissapointed. Loan star Adie Mike got the two goals that counted, as Queens Park are set to destroy the rest of the Divison 3, or at least half of it.

A.Mike was later named man of the match.

Next Match: Forfar, Challenge Cup 1st Round, Station Park, Forfar

Challenge Cup 1st Round

They weren't expecting to beat Forfar, but they put up a good fight. Stuart's men battle hard, despite going 2-0 down, Sellers and Bowman for Forfar. Then Francis Christie got his first goal in his first match for Q.Park. Then Carbury easily scored soon after, taking the whole game to extra-time, where W.Stewart got the goal that took Divison 2 side Forfar into the next round.

Francis Christie was named man of the match.

Final Score: Forfar 3 - 2 Queens Park

Scottish Divison 3, Match 2

East Fife seemed lost during the first half, as Canning and Christie got goals within no time. After those goals they seemed to be back down to earth, Defending well and even scoring a few goals before conceding a penalty, which Carbury scored with ease.

Final Score: East Fife 2 - 3 Queens Park

Queens Park Postion: 2nd

Scottish League Cup 2nd Round

Away at Dunfermilne, who are 10th in the SPL, it was surprising when Cannings got a goal after just 20 minutes. Then Dunfermilne tried everything to get another goal, but Smith easily saving them, before they conceded a pen, with nine minutes to go, and Rossi took it and it was in, 1-1. They didn't have a single chance during Extra-Time, and all was lost when Scott Thomson made it 2-1 on the 118th minute.

Final Score: Dunfermilne 2 - 1 Queens Park
