Chapter 9 Champions! Monday 22nd April 2024 March was a good month for us and one that saw me lift my 4th Manager of the Month award of the season. Matthew Carson has been a regular at left back for me all year and has 21 assists in 40 league appearances...he's been nothing short of...

Chapter 8 First Ever Youth Intake Sunday 31st March 2024 After playing two of the best teams in the league, we travelled to Slough to take on the side that was sitting rock bottom, with only 4 wins all season! However, in probably the most bizarre twist of our entire season, we are beaten by...

Chapter 7 Building Momentum For The Final 3rd Of The Season Saturday 9th March 2024 We were knocked out of the FA Cup by National League opponents, and now we may face the same fate in the FA Trophy as we go away to Eastleigh in the 4th round. They are sitting in mid table in the division above...

Chapter 6 Cody Cooke's Replacement Arrives Wednesday 10th January 2024 Brentwood Town in Essex was the destination for our FA Trophy 3rd Round match and the bookies had us at 2/5 odds on to progress to the next round against lower league opposition. I'm glad to report that we justified those...

Chapter 5 Injury Crisis Tuesday 5th December 2023 We had already beaten Enfield Town in the cup this season, but with our top striker now out with injury, this was a different game and although we created plenty, putting the ball in the back of the net proved a problem and we could only manage...

Chapter 4 Major Injury Rocks Our Season Monday 30th October 2023 Chippenham Town are struggling in the early stages of the league campaign this year and sat 19th as they came into this game with us. Despite that, we made hard work of getting the 3 points here, but we did and I suppose that's...

Chapter 3 First Defeat & First Cup Game Wednesday 20th September 2023 We kick off this chapter with some bad news. Jordan Young is about to miss up to a couple of months of football as he has picked up an injury following the Hampton & Richmond match. A massive loss for us as Young is one of my...

Chapter 2 The League Begins! Saturday 19th August 2023 I said that if the opportunity came up to sign a better goalkeeper, then I would jump on it...and I have. 24 year old Brad Wade is a considerable step up for us and joins the club on a free transfer - his signing has taken me over our...

Chapter 1 The Squad Thursday 6th July 2023 In terms of goalkeepers, it's actually one of the positions I am concerned about. Neither of the two I have in my first team squad are all that good, but it is James Hamon who is the clear first choice between the sticks. However, if an opportunity...

The Gulls - A Torquay United Story As with quite a few other FM addict's at the moment, I've been struggling for motivation in a few different saves, but I think I've found something now that I can truly get my teeth into. I'm going to start at the bottom of the English football pyramind with...

Wow that is a Champions League fixture list and a half. However, I'm backing you for results against Valencia, Bayer Leverkusen, Kobenhavn and Marseille and that should see you OK :-)

Monday 15th January 2024 Chapter 5 A Welcome Christmas Break It took for substitutes Sofian Kiyine and Marco Zunno to combine to score the only goal of the game and get us all three points against 6th placed Crotone in our next Serie C game. And that makes it 12 league games unbeaten for us...

Thursday 30th November 2023 Chapter 4 Taking Charge Of The Division I've only made one signing since being at the club, but it's proven to be a d4mn good one, as Alberto Almici is one of the best performing defensive players in the league. With only one transfer into the club since my...

Sunday 29th October 2023 Chapter 3 First Taste Of Cup Action Our 6th league game of the season saw us away at Sorrento and we absolutely hammered their goal from the opening whistle, creating multiple good chances but not taking them. I was starting to fear the worst that it wasn't going to be...
