December 2, 20214 yr Author Well, it has been a busy few days, including my first anniversary with my partner, but I have managed to squeeze a little FM22 in. So start of the new season has happened for the Bino's, now in cinch League 1. I managed to strengthen the squad to my new tactic I used towards the end of last season. I am excited for the season ahead, here is up to the end of the transfer window. Its been a good start I would say. I'm no overly fussed about the league cup, but I am enjoying my start to the season. Hopefully, a good season in the making and maybe even promotion! I also changed my logo pack for the first time in years from the steel logos to the amazing vapor logos on here.
December 2, 20214 yr Administrators Brilliant start mate and Naglik is on fire again! Keep this up and promotion will be on the cards.
December 3, 20214 yr Author I have just suffered my first league defeat of the season, a 3-1 away loss to Montrose. I have 2 games against Clyde coming up, first re arranged League game, then the Challange cup. In fm I usually win the first game but always lose the 2nd so lets see how this goes.
December 4, 20214 yr Author Half way point, i'm 10 clear at the top ? ? So far so good for the Bino's
December 4, 20214 yr Administrators Judging by the table mate it's in the bag! Not much chance of any team catching you now.
December 4, 20214 yr Author Well, I have a habit of messing up 2nd half of the season so will see. I am hopeful tho, also would be nice to go full time!!
December 4, 20214 yr Administrators Your scoring at a lot of goals and by the looks of your goals against column you must have a few clean sheets in there too. Naglik goals to game ratio seems to have dropped off but Moffat has picked up the mantle.
December 6, 20214 yr Author Just had to share this, still got 7 games of the season to go, but this happened!! Not only that, but managed to get Naglik on a permanent deal! Will update when the season finishes. I am trying out a 3 at the back formation for the rest of the season.
December 6, 20214 yr Administrators Well done mate you absolutely walked it in the end. Signing Naglik on a permanent is ideal now going up to the Championship. How do you think he will do up there?
December 8, 20214 yr Author Posted by: @Derek Well done mate you absolutely walked it in the end. Signing Naglik on a permanent is ideal now going up to the Championship. How do you think he will do up there? Honestly mate, I don't know yet, but that's part of the fun aint it? So, finished my season and what a season it was for the Bino's. Over 30 pts clear, been a long time since I done that ha. Naglik didn't score as many goals this season, but still my top scorer. I was playing a 442 for majority of the season. I did change to a 523 WB wide after I won the league, the results were pretty good: After I changed formation, my right winger Lewis Moore started banging them in! He was scoring anyway, but the formation change suited him. Inevitably, I will be saying goodbye to some of the team. Lewis Martin, Craig Ross and Nicky Buchan most definitely leaving. Grant Gillespie, who was a great servant in his 2 years at the club will also be going as well as Dean Hawkshaw. Owen Moffat didn't want to extend his loan, so he will be leaving too. So what does the future hold? Honestly no idea. I am studying for my continental pro licence so that can take me places. Job offers from England have started coming in, plus my contract runs out in a few weeks so will see what happens.
December 8, 20214 yr Administrators Great season mate, well done. The switch to 523 is interesting as I did that for the first time myself recently. Moore really had a great season with so many goals and assists but Miller and Hills looked like they we a force at the back. Do you see yourself holding out for the right offer mate or will you renew?
December 8, 20214 yr Author I signed a new 2 year deal mate. I could be on the verge of a hattrick of promotions, too good an opportunity in my eyes mate.
December 15, 20214 yr Author Hey guys, sorry for lack of updates, been busy with getting ready for Christmas etc. So, we are in our first season in the cinch championship, and it is fair to say, things could be better: I cant seem to get a decent run of form going, I have chopped and changed my tactic but to no avail. I been ( trying to) rad up on tactic development, but nothing seems to set in. I have made this tactic: I'm going to give it a go, hopefully get a wee run of for together and stay up this season.
December 15, 20214 yr Administrators I'm getting flashbacks to my first season in the PL looking at that table mate ? ? I think you'll be ok though as you've a nice cushion between you and Annan. It's really you and Raith isn't it? I take it Naglik hasn't been performing as well this season?
December 15, 20214 yr Author And this is where I will leave it for the night lol, will sleep on it. He has been hit and miss mate, we Davie Gild been good tho
December 15, 20214 yr Administrators Tommy Wright must have got a new job based on the table and form in the previous post mate as they were flying. I'd grab that opportunity with both hands mate.
December 16, 20214 yr Author Aye he went down south I think mate. I think i'm going too, 4pts off top but I think it can be done!
December 21, 20214 yr Author A quick update as travelling to NI today. So I took the Kilmarnock job. The board want me to gain promotion by winning the league. Unfortunately, I missed out on being champions on the last day so playoffs it is. No had a chance to play those matches yet but will do an end of season update when I can. Just in case I don't get on before, I wish you all a very merry Christmas and a happy and prosperous new year to you and your families.
December 21, 20214 yr Administrators Best of luck with the playoffs mate! I'm looking forward to seeing how you get on! Enjoy your Christmas mate, I hope you have a great one and a very Happy New Year.
December 22, 20214 yr Author Only gone and done it. Played the first 2 games on the boat last night lol. I got this message right after my final game confirmed promotion: Great news, however, rugby park is actually bigger than the new stadium, bizarre.
December 22, 20214 yr Administrators Brilliant mate well done! Premiership here you come. ? ? ? I've never seen a side move into a new smaller stadium, well apart from Juventus! I wonder was it based on the average attendance or something? Either way I'm sure there will be room to increase the capacity.
December 23, 20214 yr Moderators I'm doing a scottish save too. I'm at the beginning of the fourth season with Thurso, newly promoted in Scottish League 1 starting from the North Caledonian League

But I have 2 years to get attendances up or a job in the EPL lol

I'm at the beginning of the fourth season with Thurso, newly promoted in Scottish League 1 starting from the North Caledonian League Oh wow mate, that is awesome work! Keep us updated please! I'm actually still on my beta save, but if/when I start a new game, I'm going to start as the team I'm a coach for Hillfield Swifts.
