First two friendlies weren't good. I lost both 2-0 and in the first one I didn't have a single player take a shot and had a keeper injured after using my sub keeper at halftime and a player sent off just a few minutes later.

The third one I made some tactical changes and won 3-1 even with having playing 10 minutes with a player sent off.

I've got a grey 17 year old keeper in the U18 who looks half-decent and has only conceeded 2 goals in preseason.

Some more results:

Gateshead 3 - 1 Lancaster

Daniel Rowe
Danny Colvin (x2)

A very good win and i had to play 30mins with ten men.

Northwich 1 - 4 Gateshead

James Curtis (33, 71)
Kevin Henderson (45, 63)

My best performance yet - outstanding play, and Chris Feasey my right winger picked up the motm award and 3 assists. My Captain and star Centre back James Curtis got his 4th and 5th goals of the season, and is my top scorer.

The bad news is that Scotby demolish Whitby Town 6 - 0, and then Hednesford Town 5 - 0.

Very good win.

I'm contemplating having a go at this alongside my Dafuge challenge game.

I'm currently in 2017 and need to clarify the starting rules. I am keen to take over Welsh side Merthyr Tydfil but they are currently in Conference South and next season, (the earliest point at which I will be able to take over for a full season), will be their 2nd season in Conference South.

Is that ok because they were not playable at the beginning of the game, or do I have to try and find a club that has not been promoted before? (As I am in 2017 that may not be that easy).

and as Merthyr Tydfil are Welsh can I swap Wales for England in the challenge later on?

Ahh forgot you were playing in 2013...

Some more results:

Leigh RMI 1 - 1 Gateshead

Henderson (87)

I thought id won it when Henderson scored but Leigh RMI equalised in the 94th minute to leave me gutted - again, but it keeps my unbeaten record up, now 9 games without defeat.

Gateshead 0 - 0 Nuneaton

I missed a penalty after 4 minutes and dominated after that. "I Should of won the game easily" how annoying. Still, 10 games unbeaten.

More results:

Gateshead 1 - 0 Whitby

Daniel Rowe (8)

Rowe has been excellent for me, and he keeps scoring. A good solid win.

Mossley 1 - 2 Gateshead FA. Trophy 2nd Qual. Rnd

Kevin Henderson (12)
David Colvin (79)

Again a weaker team was fielded. This time we picked up the victory.

Redditch 2 - 3 Gateshead

Daniel Rowe (2, 6, 8)

A fine hattrick inside the first ten minutes from Rowe set us on our way. Redditch scored two consolation goals in the last ten minutes.

Despite my good form, I was still only 4th which was surprising. Sctoby were top by winning 12 of their 13 games, drawing the other.

Worksop and Alfreton were the other two sides ahead of me.

Big Update:

Gateshead 2 - 0 Leigh RMI 3rd Qual Rnd.

Stuart Wise (47)
Mike Flynn (64)

Good victory which keeps us in the cup.

Gateshead 2 - 0 Hyde

James Curtis (5, 90)

Captain Curtis bags his 7th goal of the season already - pretty impressvie for a Centre Back!
Scotby won 4 - 3 unfortunatly.. They are looking unbeatable.
More bad news is that Kevin Henderson, Mike Flynn, and Jospeh Waterhouse all got injured - 2 months, 2 weeks, and 2 months out respectivly.
