Didn’t draw as many as I maybe should have, but a decent season, well considering I inherited a poor squad.

As you can tell this season was mainly about rebuilding, brought in some good players and got rid of the oldies who were taking a nice slice of the wage cake. Spent Nothing, Earned Nothing.
Looked great in parts and with 4 good strikers we should really have done better, we had a good goal difference but defeat on the last day saw us lose out on the final playoff spot by a point.

Maybe expected better after adding quality to a 3rd place finish last year, but patchy form towards the end cost me a decent finish and a potential playoff position. Still was optimistic for the next year.
Always was in contention for play offs and comfortably inside it before the end of the season, 5 points clear of 6th place. The joy of a 6-2 aggregate win in the Semi’s was thwarted by a 4-1 crushing blow 2nd place team, Crawley, another season in the Conference South it was.

Nice season with a poor squad, could have drawn some more again, we always either scored or conceded late on, but the results evened themselves out, so I wasn’t too concerned, VERY optimistic ahead of the new season.

Stunning season, winning the league title by 10 points, and 2 goals a game, not to mention some good form towards the end of the season, meant we racked up some nice scores during our travels around the south of England.

Couldn’t have aimed higher and with only 4 new recruits during the season, due to wages being a huge problem, I had to work with what I had, a stunning season from a 40+ year old keeper was a bonus as he was expected to be bench material. Signed a striker with a lot of potential on a free transfer. Definitely needed to rebuild a small squad of players, which if honest, were lucky with injuries and at times, results.

5 wins in a row in mid season were one of the few high points as I finish just 4 points from relegation, we rode out luck at times but at least we got to stay in the league. Building blocks were in place for a good squad.

Got rid of some players who were clogging up the wages and spent it on a good batch of players, although small numbers again. Goalkeeper who again was a saviour at times- and being 42 was again surprising, announced retirement next season, so a new one was brought in in mid season, again a young lad who could be good in the future. The striker with potential scored 10 goals in a good year for him and an U21 cap for his country was a deserved bonus.
What a Season! We were so tight at the back and had the 3rd best defence in the league. We were always there to nick a 1-0 from a team who were glad to sit back and take a point from our well organized pockets.

We weren’t big scorers but our young lad was the top man and nabbed 13 crucial goals and a few bigger name clubs were interested. A great performance from a Centre Back and central midfield saw me pick up 150k and 325k respectively, both could have became greats at the club, but the clubs finances were poor, so money was a must if we wanted stability. With only 4k out going, I had a nice budget to try and get some good players in. I managed to sign a versatile defender with a bright future, who did well all year and along with our young striker he picked up some U21 caps and some vital experience.

Despite the lower finish, it was a better season than the last one, proved we weren’t 1 season wonder and only 2 points separated us and 6th, a place which we did occupy before a mid season slump and only a decent season ending saw the club in a good position come the 46 game mark. Tamworth, finishing 22nd managed to concede a 100 goals, with Marine and Grantham getting 98 and 94 respectively, all in a goal stuffed season.

Very pleased with the performance of the team, fluctuating form wasn’t a problem as it always came on the end of a good run, so its excusable, Signed a Bermudan 17 year old from Blyth and a Stunning looking 18 year old, who broke his leg at a harsh age, so missed a lot of development and matches, meaning that it could turn out to be a poor buy. A hat-trick of signings from 1 club for 8k saw 2 naff looking players with fringe-player potential, and a incredibly good looking keeper, who would be rushed into first team action as soon as possible was the bright spark of a red hot season.
