The aim going into the next season is as follows
A) Strengthen at the back and have strength in depth
B) Consolidate our league position and ensure we stay up
C) Strengthen ourselves financially
D) Carry on concentrating on youth
End of Season 2029
Lets have a look at our goals for this season.
A) We improved our depth but we performed poorly in defence - Still ongoing
B) Finished 2nd with the highest total points without winning the title. - Passed
C) Our finances struggled this season with us losing money. I put this down to being out of the Champions League losing on average 500k per month. - Still ongoing
D) We need to improve on C before we can invest in our youth infrastructure. Ongoing.
We are signing young talented players to carry us for years to come and hopefully turn an investment on the players.
Very happy with the outcome of the season being predicted to finish 11th coming in 2nd and winning one of the domestic cups. I don't feel like we need to purchase many players during the offseason despite many players having suitors.
Next season will be our first attempt of the AFC Champions League, can we repeat history?

Kashima 2 - 1 Shimizu
Despite going behind in the 38th minute, Ikeda stepped up in the 2nd half and slotted the ball into the bottom corner after a fantastic build up.
Hashimoto was in the squad due to injuries, came on in Extra Time due to a poor performance up top from Shimizu. It was a roll of the dice and a roll that worked out with a nicely placed header past the keeper to make the score 2-1 on his debut.

October '29
An unbeaten October in which we book our plance in the final vs Shimizu S-Pulse, who we take on in the league straight after.
4 games remaining, still a 7 point gap between ourselves and 1st place and a 9 point gap between ourselves and 3rd place. 1 more win and we qualify for next seasons AFC Champions League.
-
September '29
A very strong September ending with a 6-1 win over the league leaders to close the gap to 7 games with 6 to go,
Semi Finals of the J League Cup vs Urawa gets October under way with 2 league games to close the month. We're still involved in the title race but we need Kyoto to start slipping up and us to keep winning for that to happen.
-
August '29
The players weren't happy going out of the Emperor's cup, but then had they put the ball in the back f the net we'd have not lost.
We are still sitting pretty in the league though despite the 1 loss after a win against our closest rivals Urawa. Massafera has come to life and starting bagging the goals we need to keep where we are.

June/July '29
2 very short months hence a double update. Wins in the league and progress in both cups keeps the fans happy and the board happy. coming into the business end of the season now we are in a strong position but with finances it looks like either stick or twist when it comes to sales of players.
-
Due to finances the transfer budget and wage budget got slashed which puts me -50k on the wage budget, The club isn't losing money like it was in the J2 League and due to many years of yo-yoing it has taken it's toll. That being said their vision to play defensively solid and direct football is not what has us in 3rd in the league halfway through the season. Ticking off boxes for getting into the quarter finals of the Jleague cup and on course for the target of a mid table finishing, maybe surpassing that target. Hopefully I get a new contract but I may need to have a chat about the boards vision. Or I may let my contract run and try get a team that's already in the AFC Champions League.
Interesting times ahead indeed.

May '29
A productive May 5 wins 2 losses and a draw keeping us in the Champions League spots. Injuries looked to derail us but we keep going strong. A strong performance against Kashiwa Reysol in the round of 16 of the Jleague Cup 1st leg keeps silver ware on the table with the Emperors cup kicking off in June against Jubilo Iwata.
-
April '29
Abit of an indifferent and slow April in the league with a few draws and losses and just 1 win. The schedule is very packed with 2 games a week being often the case, Similar through May which will push players fitness (starting to sound like Klopp.)
Despite the tough month we still sit in the top 5 with the table starting to take shape.

March went from strength to strength with strong performances against Reysol and Urawa. Tokyo Verdy being a tough opponent. April see's us go to Yokohama for 2 games.

Feb '29
2 wins and a loss in our first 3 games back in the J1 League while our boys get used to the step up in standards isn't a bad return. Especially keeping a clean sheet at Kawasaki Frontale.
Sitting pretty in 5th after 3 games is a good start and gives us something to build on for the rest of the season.
Shohei Hino comes in as cover at right back for 2.7 million from Shonan Bellmare.

2029 Season Preview

October '28
17 goals in 3 games and a win over Oita, and Oita slipping up has put us 3 games in front with 1 game to go and a +22 GD over Oita.
In theory we're already champions we've also established the boys prefer Toyota to Honda.
It's been a fantastic battle for the top to take it with 1 game to go feels poetic. Whisper it quietly but we are back in the big time.
-
August '28
1 draw in August extended the gap to 3 points which means it still comes down to the game against Oita in October. September see's zero games so a chance to rest and get some friendlies to keep match fitness.
We have beaten the goals scored record in the J2 league which was 103 goals with 109 goals with 4 games to go.
-
July '28
On a unprecedented run in the league, the only defeat in July being in the Emperors cup. The main issue being Oita not dropping the points. It's looking likely the league comes down to the game between us in September.
Due to an injury to Massafera I needed to count on Tanaka to step up and step up he did with 4 goals in 6 league games.
-
June '28
Unbeaten through June with a win in the Emperors cup over Oita after they had a man sent off. We are now 1 point behind Oita in the league with some fine results through the month.
Sticking with Youth coming into the team we have 4 players coming in, in the summer transfer window. Still in need of a Left back and a Right back.
Last of the unhappy lot from relegation leaving in the same window. Bringing in much needed funds.
So far it's a two horse race for automatics with the rest nicely coming together in the play offs. 13 games to go.
-
May '28
May started with a loss to top of the table in the only loss of the month. Oita having a mini fall off during this run has now brought the gap to 3 points. the emperors cup kicks off in June with another game against Oita. We have a few players leaving from the old guard once the transfer window opens with my scouts out looking for players in those positions I am needing mainly Left Back. We are also going to be looking for inside forwards on either side.
The second half of the season is hopefully going to be more of the same. Pedal to the metal football.

April '28
After 2 humiliating defeats at the start of April a couple of subtle changes needed to be made, first being dropping the number 1 and placing the back up in goal, this seems to have had an impact. the 2nd moving Masaffera from RW to ST. A move that seems to have had a positive impact on himself and Rodrigo sitting behind him.
The 7 point gap at the top is going to be a mini mountain to climb if we want the league title.
What is next for you? Stick with them?

2030 Season Review
The media see me as a midtable team again this season, which is the aim this season while we compete in the AFC Champions League which starts in August.
Transfers out
Transfers In
With only 1 in through the door so far we look at bringing in youth from the academy to step up and replace the out going.
