I very much believe in the Cloughie approach to management so I, er, get drunk...

I just make sure that I improve in some way every season. Whether that be facilities, money, players, staff, whatever.

So I never really worry about failing, just that I should be in a better position next season.

I just get on with it. It is more based on my performance. If i am winning i cheer loudly, if i am losing i swear and go mental.

Once me mum was talking to the women downstairs and they heard me cheering and going over the top, i had survived the drop and they both said

"He is playing champ manager again"

Regarding the "Prayer Method" (go away and hope that everything will be OK on return), unfortunately it has failed to work for me repeatedly.

I try to think along these lines myself, but sometimes it is impossible, for example when you are losing a talented young striker to some bigger team and know that you just won't be able to replace him. Then things start getting really stressful.

So, Paul, let's face the facts: you are screwed.

Seriously now, I have found that my biggest successes this far have come when my adrenaline goes sky high while playing- knowing that it's now or never.

You know what you have to do now

It could be a blessing in disguise. If you're not ready for D3 you might be better served by consolidating and finishing the job properly next season rather than dropping down next term if you feel your side is barely good enough now. Don't want it being hopelessly out of its depth next term.

Exciting though isn't it. My wife always complains about how into it all I get.....stupid, ignorant wench!! Back to your shopping channel and leave me in CM nirvana!

True... nothing like a play-off final or the final game of the season, where 40 or so games and an improved bank balance hinge on 90 minutes of football ! \o/ I love CM !!

You played that game yet Paul ?

Now I just hope we got a nice little pay out for winning the league because our finances are not the best (I assume you continue to pay player wages during the summer in CM4?)

Yes, you are paying them in the summer too.
I am glad everything turned out allright for you.

PS. Er...FA Cup final for a conference team?! :o
