I have also signed Rober Koren from West Brom and have just lost to Man City 3-0 and then got told off by the neighbours for making to much noise by banging everything.

My job has been insecure for about 1 and half months so im very worried.

I brought in David Jones for 4m in January.

Mid-Table seems almost definate and with 41 points am clear of relegation , but looking to try new tactics to turn around a bad run.

I think possibly letting people buy about 1/2 players from outside the coca-cola leagues every season. This way people would get a lot more success.

Was doing great til January then after January only won one league game, losing the majority, luckily was offered a lengthy contract.

Main concerns: Goaie and Striker

With Charlton, Wigan and Sheff Utd relegated, D Bent and Kirkland would be ideal signings if could possibily fit into my 13m budget.

Never made this clear at beginning but freebies are allowed, they must have left there club though, unless they're from a Championship club of course.

So after a dissapointing first season, looking for a slight improvement but press believe we are relegation candidates, spent 6m on injury-prone goalie Chris Kirkland which was a bit of a hit or miss transfer but there were no other goalkeepers of that quality. Also spent 3m on big target man Gregorz Raziak who scored quite a few pre-season.

A 2-0 defeat to Chelsea wasn't too bad but hopefully performances will improve.

SACKED :eek:

Board issued an Ultimatum before a game against Reading in the league, 3-1 up and looking comfortable at half time, told the lads I was pleased.

Conceded around the 50th minute before Curtis Davies my key player was injured by Long.

Game ended 4-3 with Long scoring two long range screamers.

Think maybe board expectation is bit too high but good challenge for a short term challenge.
