challenge The Youth Academy Challenge [II] - Page 19

quote IcarusAbides

Yeah Watford are in mine too. There's loads of ex players who are coaching that I want but they all want over 2000 in wages.

they actually look really good as coaches don't they! so many of them have top class stats and are available on a free.

also, Wycombe parked the bus like Chelsea did against Barcelona and were really frustrating to play against. but in the 91st minute. Ashley Way, who is a bit part player, cut inside from the left and smashed it into the top corner in the near post. great goal and a deserved win. in the Playoff positions now.

ouch, unlucky there IcarusAbides. i am really hoping my finances improve to a position where i can sign those coaches, they'll be great for increasing the reputation of the club, developing players and ultimately, get me to the Premier League.

not expecting to get promoted this season, even if i miss out on the play off spaces i will be happy, top half is what i am expecting. although i set the minimum aim for the board as "avoiding relegation" just in case..

you saw how patchy my form was in League 2. loads of losses at first, then going on a 12 match winning streak, can't win for 6 games, win for another 10 games, poor finish, except scoring 8 goals in the last 2 games to seal promotion.

if that happens again, i will actually throw my laptop at the wall because it is so frustrating. but i am really hoping to get an AMC and GK in the intake. i'd be really pleased if i got both but one or the other is fine.

quote IcarusAbides

You should be alright. Youth intake has been a bit up and down for me in the last few seasons though.

Is there anyway to stop an idiotic left back from getting sent off every match?

you've got moronic left backs too? i think there is a curse on left backs on this challenge. one left back got straight reds in 3 consecutive games he played in, the other keeps getting booked/sent off in nearly every game. but the second one has Premier League potential, which makes it so hard not to play him.

the only disciplined left backs i have are naturally centrebacks

had a great game against Yeovil just now!!

took an early lead with Kocer scoring at the far post from a perfect cross by Dean Perry, Yeovil scored two goals at the end of the first half and they were easily preventable but my defence just turned to shit.

in the second half, i made some subs at the 65th minute and it turned the game on its head. Ashley Way came from the bench and then cut inside, Cristiano Ronaldo style and then slotted it into the far post in the 76th minute. with time running out substitute Matt Fowler was tripped in the box after a great run from deep and then Lirio Carlos scored the penalty in the 85th minute to win me the game 3-2

win has got me to 2nd place now. 1 point ahead of 3rd but they have a game in hand.

10-0-0 31-1 but now hit our first injury crisis with 5 players injured, three long-term....no left sided midfielder fit.

I'm out of right backs somehow despite having four.

quote parmar1993

2 points clear in 2nd place and 2 points behind league leaders Dag & Red with 13 games gone. i'm doing well in the league at the moment and i am in the JSP S Quarter Finals too so things are well at Bromley for me.

how are everyone else's saves going?

Finished for the day and prob wont get any more till Friday. After 12 straight wins finally drew after having two players carried off and one sent off. Amazingly only six points clear. Injuries continue with now only two fit strikers and one left midfielder.
