I got offered the job of St Albans City in the Conference south, currently sitting in 17th position in the middle of October.

Season 04/05
I knew a lot of work had to be done, but the chairman would have been happy to stay in the division.
I used my skills in the loan market to bring in a midfielder and a defender, also signed a keeper for £1k, and another striker for free but with a 50% sellon clause, all during my first season.

I managed 2nd place, lost in the play off semis
FA Cup: 4th qualifying round reply
FA Trophy: semi finals

Season 05/06

Promotion was achieved this season finished 1st on 77 points, beating Margate by 2 goals, as they also finished on 77 points, I brought in a few young free transfers from big clubs who couldn't make a name there

FA Cup: 3rd qualifying round
FA Trophy 1st Round

Season 06/07

Well Conference National, against the odds I'm here, I won the division in my first season, 9 points clear and straight into the football league, with the help of my 25 goal striking superstar who came on a free transfer

FA Cup: 3rd Round, lost 1-0 to Crewe in a reply after holding them 1-1 at home

FA Trophy: 4th Round


Season 07/08

Well, League 2 football, aim survival, kept pretty much the same squad expet replacing my loanees from the previous season, one notible signing was a brilliant left winger, who made 24 assists. My top striker from last season this time netted 22 times in total, 19 in the league.
I finished 7th, making the playoffs, loosing on penelties to Port Vale after a 3-1 win at home in the first leg and lossing 3-1 in the seccond.

FA Cup: 2nd round lost 2-1 to League 1 Swindon in a replay after holding them 1-1 at home

League cup: lost in round 1 (oh well!!!)

You got them promoted in your first full season? Spent 4 and half years there only to crash out in the play-offs several times

Good luck with the Saints and KUTGW!

In my first full season I started off poor and thought i'd be in a relegation scrap, but I found a stratagy which just worked (obviously I'm going to keep what it was under my hat it's the rules!)

I'm finding it tough in league 2 though

Season 08/09

Another year in League Two, I made a few decent signings, a new goalkeeper and an Italian striker were the most notible.
The Italian striker notched up 38 goals (31 in league) He made a good partnership with my other striker who scored 24 (21 in league) but had a few injuries.
I struggled to start with, but in one match vs Exeter City, I was 1-0 down at half time, and my captain had picked up a knock and his physical condition was 58% so I brought him off, I changed my captain, obviously, for the remainder of the match and I totally dominated, despite the game only ending 1-1.
After that we went on a very long unbeaten run with my new captain and scoring plenty of goals. Finally finishing 2nd, winning promotion to League One

League Two: 2nd
FA Cup: 3rd Round (lost 4-2 to Championship side Burnley)
League Cup: 2nd Round (lost 4-0 to Premiership side Man City, and having 10 men for 76 minutes)
LDV Vans Trophy: Area quater finals (lost on penelties to League One Rushton & Diamonds after a 1-1 draw
