another boring update i'm afraid. packed off to Bognor Regis, i dipped my big toe into FM2007. not quite sure what to expect from the 2007 version i took over a team with no money and no decent players, just the way it should be!. an extremely tough 1st season, with half a dozen players landing in, and no one worth selling, i managed to better my media prediction and come in 7th, although it was a season of being consitantly inconsistant, i never really treatened to leave mid table all season, i finished with
P 42, W 18, D 10. L 14 F73 A61 P64
both cups sucked big style, Chippenham and Frickley accounting for exits at the first hurdle.
season 2 was a bizarre season in many ways, 11 players coming in for a grand total of £0, with 7 leaving on free's, and 2 more leaving for £1k each, i prepared myself for another season of rubbish. the board at least were only expecting a safe mid table finish, so when i was top after 15 games, having won 11 and drawn 3 of those, things were looking up. we managed to survive a mid season collapse, and actually won the division, although how, i reckon i will never know. we finished the season with only one win in 6, but managed 81 points. i made it to the 4th qualifying round of the FA Cup before a hiding by Torquay ended my dreams of the first riound proper, while Dorchester seen me out at the first attempt of the Trophy
P 42 W24 D 9 L 9 F70 A 39 Pts 81
the jubilant celebrations and subsequent open top bus tour round Bognor were great days for us all, as we prepared to step up the divisions and head towards glory....or something.
well, season 3 in the Conference national was an eye opener. 1 point after 8 games set the tone for the rest of the season. no money to bring in players meant i was stuck with hat i had, my scout going out of his way to find the worst players he could, i ended the season rock bottom om 28 points, with only 6 wins all season and straight back down to the regionals. the cups sucked, no one bothered coming to watch us, but i stayed in a job.
P46 W6 D10 L30 F34 A 82 pts 28.
so, i'm off to bounce back, with a bit of luck, although season 4 has started badly, i'll keep you all informed

I'm ever so terribly sorry Nobby, i didnt realise that the forum was there to ensure that good grammar and punctuation was the main aim. however, I will take this on board, and from now on try my upmost to use only the best Queens English in all my posts, so as not to upset the more pedantic posters like your good self. Please accept my sincerest and humblest apologies.

Don't be such an ignorant little ****. A lot of llamas don't have English as their first language and therefore have to spend some time if they want to try and read a post that is written to a poor standard. It's common courtesy.
If you can't be bothered to make the effort, then I can't be bothered to read your posts.
