2014/15
Very pleased with my first season in the Primera Liga.
Odds of 2000-1 to take the title seemed a little harsh. I would have though 100000-1 would have been more realistic.
The threatened overhaul didn't really take off as despite making an enormous number of bids all summer only 2 players accepted my terms, mind you The Brazilian DM that I enticed from Ejido turned out to be a right star. His 6 goals and 7 assists proved to be a godsend.
A finish of 15th, 5 points above the drop zone was very satisfactory.
And we were mathematically safe with 3 games to go.
P38 W9 D15 L14 F36 A51 PTS42
Goals were a problem, with top scorer bagging 9!
Mind you he did get 10 in the cup \0/
Cup runners up - now that was a shock.
Nice run to the final including a 3-0 away win against Valencia.
Hopes were high, but Real Madrid hammered us 3-0. No glory but cash aplenty.
I was able to upgrade a lot of contracts and brought in 3 quality players in the transfer window, including a Slovenian AMR,ST from Valladolid for £2.9m
Mind you I think the 23 year old Ecuadorean AM/FC that I stole from Division B4 Getafe for £45k has proved to be the value buy of the season.
On to next year I guess, with a squad that has been strengthened.
