    Bouncebackability: "The ability to bounce back or recover from bad circumstances"

    Player season summary: GK: Oscar Cano is one of the key reasons for the success this season. With just 15 goals conceded and 17 clean sheets in the league we have always been able to be confident of not conceding too many. His high 1-on-1 ability has also meant that we have been able to play a...

    Bouncebackability: "The ability to bounce back or recover from bad circumstances"

    May 2039 Borussia Dortmund (h) Champions League Semi-Final 2nd leg - The away goal gives us the slimmest of advantages, but Dortmund are no pushovers despite the very good record we do have against them and after winning the league, we should be confident. Lazenby makes such a difference...

    April 2039 Leicester City (h) - Leicester have struggled this season and are in 19th, although they’re not that far from safety. In hindsight, I should have rested players with the Champions League fixture in mind, but we produced a pretty comfortable win in the end with Parker as the...

    BAP Scotland 2021

    Quite a nice start for Cirkin at 16…couple of starts, few sub appearances and goal involvements. Good experience!

    Bouncebackability: "The ability to bounce back or recover from bad circumstances"

    March 2039 2 games against teams in the top 4 and a Champions League deficit to overcome...and the small matter of an FA Cup 4th Round tie. Birmingham (a) FA Cup 4th Round - Quite a lot of changes, some enforced, are made for this and it showed as we failed to be at our best for quite long...

    Bouncebackability: "The ability to bounce back or recover from bad circumstances"

    February 2039 A very quiet January transfer window which was disappointing. I was really hoping to bring in strong reinforcements to try and deal with the fact that our form capitulates in April and May, but there was nothing out there for value in the positions I was looking at...even with a...

    BAP Scotland 2021

    These used to be really popular, but haven't seen one in a while. There seems to be less engagement on the site as a whole, so hope you can get 11 for this! Position - MC First name - Eduardo Second name - Ciric Foot - Right City of Birth - Varna, Bulgaria birth date - 1/5 Like team - Elgin...

    Bouncebackability: "The ability to bounce back or recover from bad circumstances"

    January 2039 Average of a game every 4 days. We have a few players - Parker in particular - who will struggle with this. 3 poached youngsters all come into the club, all in time to get club-grown status in time and to be developed through our world class youth development system...

    Bouncebackability: "The ability to bounce back or recover from bad circumstances"

    December 2038 The early news for the month is the board giving me an extra £22m - with some adjustment that gives a budget of almost £100m. Wolves (h) - Our form has been so good at home, I can’t see anything other than a straight win here. No complacency though. In the end, Lazenby does...

    Bouncebackability: "The ability to bounce back or recover from bad circumstances"

    November 2038 Slavia Prague (a) Champions League Gp H - A convincing 7-0 win against Slavia last time out and a 100% winning record in the groups so far means we should be confident here. We take the opportunity to rest Lazenby, Rousseau and Jose. 21 year old Derry more than steps into...

    Bouncebackability: "The ability to bounce back or recover from bad circumstances"

    October 2038 Well, if anything is going to test our unbeaten run, it’s this month - Manchester City and Liverpool. Southampton (a) - A number of players are still returning to full fitness, so this could be a challenge with a less than first choice starting 11. Southampton’s Yu-Min pinged...

    Bouncebackability: "The ability to bounce back or recover from bad circumstances"

    September 2038 The transfer window closes and we’ve offloaded a massive amount of players, making some decent money in the process. Most of those players were from the U23s and, if they weren’t in the first team by now, are never going to be, but Duro and Martin have left from the first...

    Bouncebackability: "The ability to bounce back or recover from bad circumstances"

    August 2038 Charity Shield up early in the month and this is a first appearance in the competition for us. Man Utd, league winners, though. Manchester United (n) Community Shield - Alex Pitt makes his debut against his former club, but Parker misses out as he’s still not 100% after the...

    Bouncebackability: "The ability to bounce back or recover from bad circumstances"

    June-July 2038 I’m going to do something I’ve never done before for this transfer window and leave all incoming transfers to my director of football Mirko Michel I’ve asked him to look for a keeper and an attacking central midfielder in the expectation that this could be a very busy outgoing...
