has anyone seen the championship manager kid videos?
anyway i decided that i would be better than him and try to manage bradford city

anyway in my first season i was set the target of achiveing a top half finish.
i was coasting in a very sexy 10th position. but then i had a bad run, only got 1 point in 9 games.
i did however kill up in the cups. i got to the fourth round of the F.A cup, only to be knocked out to a majestic man utd on there own turf, infront of a very attractve 53000, which did wonders to my bank balance.
i was now through to the north semi-final of the paint trophy. i was drawn against feirce rivals huddersfield. i managed to overhaul them in a thrilling encounter, 4-3 in the end.
now on to the the north final, drawn against other rivals doncaster, having lost to them in both previous encounters, i was slightly worried about the forthcoming encounter, but nethertheless i went to the keepmoat stadium infront of a capacity crowd, i fielded my usual attacking formation, it was a tense affair, but i triumphed in the end. 2-0.
the second leg was to be played at my very own valley parade, i also managed to overcome my opponments doncaster infront of a capacity crowd.
onto the final, to be played at cardiffs impressive milnellium stadium. *a bloke* opened the scoring with a well placed penalty after 7 minutes, but swansea equalised after 29 minutes through who else but *another bloke*. we managed to hold out untill half time, but the second half was a severe struggle, swansea created many chances, on another day the would have had a dozen. but lady luck was smiling on us as they didnt convert any. so into penelties we went, we managed to score 3, through *three blokes*. swansea only managed to score 1 and the others were smartly saved by *a goalkeeping bloke*. so in the end, despite being outplayed for the entire game, we triumphed infront of a mahusive 72300 and i earned 400k in gate recipts.
the season picked up from then on and i managed to recover and finsh in 13th place. only 1 point behind the top half where i had been targeted. the board were dissapointed by my league posistion but were delighted that i had ruled myself out of the spurs and newcastle jobs
into the second season, i have played 10 games, won 8. lost 2. this leaves me top of league one. after the board set me a target of a mid tabled finish. the defence of my paint trophy starts in 2 games time away at darlington.
may i just add that *a french bloke* was sacked
more to come when i play
thats if people are interested.
