After reading so many interesting stories on LLM I decided to give it a go myself instead of playing with Liverpool (bored to tears winning!)
I asked Frank to find me a club in the Conference North. His reply, Stafford Rangers!
First impressions. What, no stats over 10? THis is going to be a test of my character.

Conference North 2005-06

Transfer budget 6k
Wages 2.3k
Players in 1
A 37 year old Swiss international keeper (mt best player by far stats wise) who also doubled up as a GK coach.

Realising very quickly during pre season that my Liverpool tactics wouldn't work I started from scratch.

To my surprise the following happened..

Pld 42 W27 D12 L3 F72 A24 Pts 93 1st 21 points clear.

Cups sucked arse as I was expecting them to.
FA cup 3rd Qual round H 1-2 Alfreton
FA Trophy 1st round A 0-1 Burton

6 players in through the season for 6k and 0 out.

My GK decides to retire leaving me with very little hope next season unless I find a replacement.

All in all I'm very pleased and next season is going to be easy I think?

dont be so sure

a lot of managers have a good first season (like me), but then fail the next season.

on my first season with a conference south side i just missed out in the play-off final after finishing 4th.

however my next season i came 12th - not so good
