Default South America here I come

I wanted to do a LLM in South America so I loaded up Argentina, Brazil, Mexico, America, and Chile. Then I went to Frank, and he came back with Ferro in the Argetine 2nd Division. SO off I went:

2006/2007 - Ferro - Argentine Second Division
Media - 5th
Board - Respectable
Fans - Respectable
Transfer Budget - $189,000
Wage Budget - $14,750 p/w

THe team had high hopes going into the season and I thought that I might get promoted, but a horrible start and never finding the right tatic hurt. I decided to send out my scouts to Brazil and bring in some defensive help, I did sign two Brazilians but they end up like playing horrible. One of the Brazilians actually ended up being the worst signing of the 2nd Division. Ended the season lower midtable (13th), but safe from regulation.

Top Goal Scorer - Older Striker - 11
Copa America - Chile
Copa Libertadores - Internacional
APD - BOCA

2007/2008 - Ferro - Argentine 2nd Division
Media - 8th
Board - Safe Midtable
Fans - Safe Midtable

I felt good going into my second season. I brought on a quality midfielder from Columbia and also AMC from Brazilian mid year and he played great. Team was very up and down and we played better in the closing stage which saved us from regulation. I did something stupid at this point River Plate came open and I declared my interst in the job (just trying a wild stab at it) and the Board and the Fans got really ****ed. I was fired 4 days before the start of the next season.

Top Goal Scorer - Older Striker - 12
Copa Libertadores - BOCA
APD - BOCA

2008/2009 - Defensores - Argentine 2nd Div
Media - 16th
Board - Rebuild
Fans - Rebuild
Transfer Budget - 8k
Wage - 30,800 p/w

SO I started this year without a job, but about a 2 weeks into the season I accepted an offer from newly promoted Defensores in the Argentine Second Division. THey had no one on the team and by the time I signed on it was passed the transfer window. SO I set my scouts out and I sent one to the Olympics and he came back with a young Winger from the Ivory Coast. I was able to get him on a free. THe first half of the year was a struggle. with no players I constantly had to offer contracts to sup par players. The second half started with me bringing in 8 transfers. 5 of them getting hurt for more than 3 months during our friendlys matches. BAd luck. Ending having to play Atlanta in the regulation playoffs. Dominated both games but lost 3-2. Team regulated. Quit my job in disgrace. I got luck some how there was a job opening in the Mexican first league - Dorados - and they took me on. That's where I'll be next year.

Top goal scorer - Another Older Stiker - 12
Copa Libertadores - BOCA
APD - BOCA

That'll teach you for declaring an interest in managing River Plate.

Season 4 2009-2010 - Mexican League - Dorados - First Division A

Media - 1st
Board - Win
Fans - Win

So I went into the season with a lot of pressure on me. Something I wasn't use to or was sure I could handle. We had a high transfer budget and but a wage budget that was almost at the top. I was able to bring on two good players off the bat, a striker looking for a second chance and a young Jamican Defender who is a great leader. The first half of the year was a disaster as I got use to my team and the league. Finished out of the playoff hunt in the first half, but I felt good going into the closing stage. Brought on 5 new players at the half way point and I added two wingers on loans that turned out to be big helps. The biggest signee was a defender from Queretaro for 600K. Also sign a couple of youngsgter to help my youth team. The team came together quickly and we didn't lose a game in the closing stage. In the closing stage playoff we lost in the Semis.

I was proud about my team's turn around. I was alsp proud of myself by benching players who wanted out (regardless who good they were). I had about 7 players who wanted to leave for bigger and better pastures. My second chance striker lead my team in goals, assist and MOM. He also was the fans POY. MY 600K defender was named to the division A first team. Going into next season I feel real good about my team.

Copa Libertadores - Once Caladas
World Cup Champions - England defeat Italy 2-0. ON a side note Brazil and Argentina both failed to adavance out of group play.
Top goal Scorer - Second Chance Striker - 13
Fans POY - Second Chance Striker

2010/2011

Media - 1st
Board - Win
Fans - WIn

The pressure was on again, but I felt confident going into this season off of last years final half surge. The opening stage my teams was tremendous not lossing a game. At this point it been about a year without a regualr season lost. I got to the opening stage finals and lost with 1 min left in the game. Heart broken I entered the closing stage. My team was dominate agian although we did finally lose a game and have the thrid best record (thanks to to many draws). Well in the quarterfinals of the playoffs I end up tying the #1 ranked team, excepting a shotout, I find out that since I am the lower ranked team I lose. Stupid should have read the rules closer. This season I had the best team in Division 1A, but no promotion. I brought on two exciting players at the owners request (budget is no option for this man, love it) and both of these star players lived up to thier billing. THe owner also is improving the training and youth facilities and we made a partnership with team in Ecuador to loan some of our young players out.

Copa Libertadores - Sporting Cristal - Peru
Top Goal Scorer - Second chance Stirker - 18
Asissit- Second Chacne stiker - 10
