Ok so i took control of Queens Park.. Scottish Division 3 side whom the media expected lower league finish and board was looking for mid table finish..
Now this team play at hampden park which is a 50k+ capacity.. but that means nothing.. the team itself is abysmal.. one or two players have attributes above 10 and they aint even good attributes.. i took it cause there mid table side and i wanted to see how i faired.. and it was my first REAL lower lower league game..
Start of the season seen me try out few friendly games looking for a formation my team would gel together well in.. ended up a standard 4-4-2 =/.. Still started the season off well.. winning my first few games around the 3-0 margin.. seemed to be going well and i expected it to be a pretty easy season.. then i hit a slump started drawing or narrowly edging out wins.. got hit by a couple of injuries mid season and was forced into the transfer market for some backup in an attempt to spend the pathetic allowance for the season..
Player i bought was a 34yr old brazilian.. his name was wierd so i wont type it up.. got him for free as he was out of contract.. surprised he wanted to come actually.. anyways.. gave him a couple of starts and he was proving to be a good move.. 2 MoM in a row.. 2 goals.. 1 assist.. then he hit a slump and that was hit by injury which ruled him out to last few games of season.. I tried dipping in transfer market again but nobody worthwhile signing so i just reverted to reserves for some backup..
Then came another slump.. morale dropped.. i went from 2nd in the table to 3rd and was just 3/4 points away from sliping to 8th and out of promotion zone.. lost 3 matches in a row.. morale was further bashed and i felt that id never get back on track..
Last few games of season.. out of all competition except the league and still fighting for promotion.. last possible finish being 8th.. i managed to scrape my way back into 2nd and into the playoffs..
Playoffs proved to be a challenge.. i frew 3rd place elgin and only just scraped through then berwick rangers in the final and again only jsut scraped through by one goal.. which was a penalty.. wont complain though but if im going to survive life in division 2 i need an entire team of new blood..
heres the end league screen..
