Default Scandinavian Adventure

Before I begin, I would like to say that, despite my tarnished post history, I am now fully converted to being a Llama, and am apologising for my previous regretable behaviour. I can safely say that I will never again visit the Devil's fora, and this game I have just begun has been the deciding factor in converting me.

I loaded all leagues in Scandinavia with a large database. Frank sent me off to Sparvagens FF in the Swedish Second Division East Svealand, so this is where I went.


Season 2007

I inherited a good looking squad with a couple of potential stars, particularly in the AMC and DC positions. However I went bargain hunting on my scouts advise, and managed to sign 6 players for a combined total of £4k, the entirety of my transfer budget. 21 unneeded reserves were given the boot.

The board expected a fight against relegation along with the fans, and the media expected us to finish 8th out of 12.

Final position: 4th - - 38 points. (10 points off the top, 27 off the bottom)

Top goalscorer: New Brazilian striker - - 13 (in 21)
My player of the year: Same player

All in all a good season, and my team were looking like a top of the table side by the end of the season.



Season 2008

No signings were made this season, I felt that my squad form last season could do the trick. 3 more players were released.

The board expected a fight against relegation, the fans expected a mid-table finish, and the media thought we would finish 5th out of 12.

Final position: 2nd - - 41 points. (2 points off the top, 30 off the bottom)

Top goalscorer: Brazilian striker - - 11 (in 22)
My player of the season: 19 year old club captain right back (1st season free signing) with 10 MoMs in 20 appearances, and having big clubs offer big money for him. I am waiting for a fairly special offer to let him go.

Heartbreak. After an appaling start (3 losses in the first 4 games), we were doing nothing to dispel the predictions. However, an unbeaten run of 17 games put us in the driving seat for the last game of the season, win and promotions was secured. We lost, Valsta won, and another season in the Second Division beckons. Finances worrying, now £200k in debt.



Season 2009

Scouts found me two brilliant looking new signings, a 17 year old forward, and a 19 year old keeper. Both were picked up for free, and both went straight into the starting eleven. One player left us for the greener pastures of Umedalen.

Board still only expected a fight for relegation, while the fans wanted mid-table obscurity. We were predicted to finish 4th by the media.

Final position: 1st - - 47 points (3 away from second)

Top Goalscorer: New 17 year old striker - - 17 (in 22), Brazilian striker scored 15 in 21, and is now the clubs record goalsorer.
My player of the season: 1st season free transfer DMC, with an average rating of 7.89 and a host of bigger clubs after him. Club captain 20 year old right back is now the clubs most capped player, with 66 starts to his name (in which he has attained 27 MoM awards!!)

This was the most enjoyable season I have ever experienced in FM. We looked to be running away with it, 8 points ahead of the chasing pack with 8 games to go, before Enskede decided to make a fight of it. They beat us 4-0 at home and won 7 on the trot to come level with us on points on the final day, we managed to hold on with a 3-0 win while they suffered a 2-1 loss and the hands of the bottom placed side. Finances declining: £329k in debt.

Oh, and cups always suck arse.

Nice reports! Looking forward to see how the team progress. 17 year old scoring 17 in 22 isnt bad!

Season 2010

Only one player was brought in on a free transfer this season, a centre-half who walked straight into the first team. Meanwhile, 5 players were ousted from the club.

Both the board and fans expected a brave fight against relegation, but the media was more optimistic, predicting a mid-table finish, 7th out of 14.

Final position: 3rd - - 50 points. (7 points off the top, 47 off the bottom. Yes, that's right, Robertsfors managed a colossal 3 points in 26 games!!)

Top scorer: Now 18 year old superstar striker - - 16 (in 24)
My player of the year: Same player, he was also called up to the Sweden under 19s, and he has scored in his first two matches. He now has 33 goals in 46 appearances for the club. On another note, our centre back became the all time most capped player for Sparvagen, surpassing the previous record of 102 games.

A great season of consolidation, in which we were never in any real danger of relegation. We only didn't push for the play-off place because our keeper seemed to get injured every other game (playing in just 10 of 26), and it is safe to say that our reserve is not quite of the same quality.

No need to mention cups I don't think...

You prooved on your last two appearances in LLM that you are anything but LLM, simultaneously posting in heathen fora while you were here.

I have no reason to believe that you have changed at all. You had a second chance last time but ****ed it away.

neil_warnock by name and nature it seems.

Fully appreciated, and I am the first to admit that I have acted horrendously, but as I said at the top of this page, this carreer has changed me, and as such I am willing to swear on anything required that I will never visit anywhere other than the Llama forums here. I have already saved it into my 'favourites', so that I am less likely to be tempted elsewhere.

Thanks Happy
