Judging by my first match building my 442 tactic I believe I may be on to a winner.

I've also beaten Hibs 2-1 in my second friendly, so it's looking good so far. If I can carry this form into the season I'll be in the play-offs before you know it.

A 5-0 demolition of Boston Utd follows up. 3 more friendlies and it's on to the season. C'mon preseason \o

I've bookmarked this, it's the sort of thing I might be able to do in a few months time provided my challenge game goes well.

I've edited the original post to bring all rules to one place

After drawing one all with Gillingham I went on to hammer Exeter 7-0.

Incredibly high scoring preseason so far.

Who wants to bet I get hammered in the first league match?

On a side note Arsenal are now my parent club and we're currently discussing a deal for midfield ace Denilson \o

Other people join in please, this is looking really sad ()

I'm currently lying in 6th place after 9 games.

4 wins (Hull, Stoke, Southampton, Crystal Palace) 4 draws (Wolves, Colchester, QPR, Derby) and one loss (Coventry) leaves me on 16th points and right on target for a play off place.

Sadly my early burst has slowed and I'm struggling to pick up points and morale now.

Progress in the cup has been awful with a solid, if lucky, 3-2 win over Northampton followed by a 1-0 loss at home to Doncaster, ending my cup "run"

Have just accepted Ayr of Scotland as my feeder club. Should at least add a little hlp to my push for points, even if they can't help in the long run.

Should also mention my transfers:
This early on I'm not getting the nationalities right, though I am on the lookout for scouts who show potential in the right countries.

In:
James Wesolowski (Leciester) £150k
Yves Ma Kalambay (Chelsea) £55k
Vasilis Tsiartas (Free)
Danny Collins (Sunderland) £60k
Malky Mackay (Watford) £26k
Tugay (Blackburn) £100k
Melvin Zaalman (Sparta) Loan

Out:
Scott Barron (Wycombe) Loan

Have really strengthened my team, had little cover before now. Have managed so seriously strengthen the defence and midfield, but there's a distinct lack of pace in my side everywhere except up front.

Counter attacking sounds promising.

Just become the manager of Hartlepool after the random generator allocated me a club. This will be tough, but I'll give it a good go.
