Holywood still in Division 1

we were close but couldnt get over the line.
Not much to speak of in the cups, and to be honest I didnt take them too seriously as I realised I was half a chance for promotion, so I focused on that.

Ballymena Utd, recently relegated Tobermore Utd and ourselves were the top 3 for most of the season. We were scoring goals for fun, but conceeding plenty also. Brian Rea was again servicable but David Kerr, the U21 international was outstanding. 22 league goals including all 5 in a 5-5 draw with Ballyclare and 31 in all competitions saw him take out the young player of the year award.

OUr problems are defensive. Patterson is good and Phil McMahon decent but I need some real quality if Im going to make the push for promotion. Also, my GK, Will Cahoon is also very good but injury prone, so when he is not in, his 17 yo understudy can be inconsistent.

Im able to attract players now, but not those that i exactly need. Im desperate for defensive cover but I cant seem to get anyone. That could be the difference for me.

With 5 games remaining I had every chance of finishing top of the league but 2 draws and 3 losses in those games put to rest our hopes.

Club reputation is now regional and the board is happy with me. Again, twice during the season they threw in 110k to help keep the club afloat.

OUr average home crowd is just under 200.

Roll on another season.

What a wierd season, won the Super Cup and World Club Championship and still no change in my 'national' reputation - how silly.

Was knocked out of the champs. league at group stage which really sucked, but was third so went into the UEFA cup . . . which I won ^_^ (Still no rep change).

Won all N.Ireland cups as well (again).

Had to sell my best defender, but got £10.5M + 30% sell-on for him so wasn't too bad.

Might give up now, won everything now

good work Azeryk.

have you considered moving to another NIPL club and turning them into a good European side ?
that would put the NI co-efficient right up there.

Woohoo - Yay - Woohoo

FINALLY took untill 18-19 season but with just 3 losses and 3 draws Eniskillen are crowned champions -

Following my worst league season for 4 5 years (finishing 3rd instead of 2nd), crashing out of both domestic cups at 1st knockout stage and a poor display in uefa cup group stage i will finally bring champions league footy to northan irelands most hated team.

Training ground - now the best it can be -

Champs league qualifiers - ENiskillen 8 v 0 dianmo tiblis

won 11 v 0 agg.

then the most amazing

ens 3 v 0 Milan
in final qualifier round - lost 4 v 2 away so won on agg 5 v 4

AMAZING (screen shots will follow when home from work.

so now in group, and making amazing steps forward -Linfield still the team to beat, but with their wages and no title hopefully they will start to decline.

am continuing to replace out of contract stars with promising youth and even though i lose 1 star a season i am gaining 2 quality youth guys (althouh in 2 years time i lose 4 stars at once - doh -

one final point - has anybody noticed Celtic are alwatys buying NI players?

In my game, Portsmouth seem to buy a lot as well. They have five Northern Irish players (soon to be 6 when transfer window reopens) in their squad at the moment, so do Celtic. I've sold players to Southampton, Chelsea and Rangers as well. The guy I sold to Chelsea, Andrew Millar, is worth £6.5mil and playing regularly up front for them, despite still being only 18
