2013 Czech Republic

We absolutely destroyed qualifying! DESTROYED! Only a last minute equaliser from Italy prevented a 100% campaign.

World Cup Qualifiers - Finished 2nd in my group qualifying for the playoffs were I drew Russia beating them 4-3 in Russia but then losing 3-1 at home to go out of the world cup.


Upto 20th in the world rankings.

Euro 2012:
The preperation matches coming up to the championships went well with only one loss which was to Portugal which was to be expected.
Also drawing Portugal, Italy and England in my group I found it hard to see my qualifying for the quarters.

Started off well against Portugal going 2-0 up. They got Bosingwa sent off as well but we couldn't hold it together. Portugal took a 2-3 lead and despite our best efforts at equalising in injury time they responded with a winner in injury time.

The Italy game also started off well by us going up by two goals again. The rest of the match fizzled out and we should of scored at least 1 more goal in the match but it was a good win.

I needed 1 point against England to qualify, however we went down badly to a Rooney hattrick.

It was a good tourney for Poland over all considering Portugal and England were in the final. England took the win.

Euro 2012 Games:

Hoping to get a good start to World Cup Qualifying, Poland really should win three out of the four games held in 2012 and I'll be gutted if we don't. Lewandowski continues to dominate the scoring for us, thankfully he is young and he will be around for the next 3 or 4 tournaments hopefully!

Currently 59th in the world rankings, I'm hoping the world cup quals will boost our standings as we should finish at least 2nd in our group.

2014 - Report

EURO QUALIFIERS - drawn in a group with Germany but no real other threats and with the top 2 qualifying out right I feel I should qualify easily. Off to a good start with 2 easy wins and a 1-1 draw with Germany.

WORLD RANKINGS - reached a high of 13th before slipping down to 19th

nearly 4 years in and I havn't got any decent regens coming through so I think I will start to slip down the rankings.
 
2011:

Quite happy with the results for the year, with the first 3 already being there upon me starting the save:

However, the loss to France, in a game in which I was 1-0 up with 10 minutes to go, meant that I failed to reach the expectations of the Romanian FA of qualifying for the play offs.

Some good friendly results, as well as the wins in the qualifying, meant that we rocketed up to 32nd in the World Rankings, ahead of some very decent sides such as Belgium.

2015 - Report

EURO QUALIFIERS - Qualified top of my group drawing with Germany twice and beaton all the other teams easily scoring 40 goals in 10 games

EURO 2016 - In a group with France, Greece and Bulgaria so hopefully I can get through

WORLD CUP QUALIFIERS - In a group with Italy and Slovenia so may struggle

WORLD RANKINGS - despite being unbeaton for over a year my ranking remains around 20th.

FOUR ASSOCIATIONS TOURNAMENT - managed to lose this to Scotland after drawing with both Scotland and N.Ireland this did not please my board.
 
After doing well in some friendlys, im up to 66th in the world

James De Pass - Great Youth Prospect who already has 15 goals in 27 appearances at the age of 18 View attachment 255655
Karl Henry - My Captain, the rock in the midfield, 56 appearances and i hope he can have some more. View attachment 255656
Liam Feeney - Pacey winger who has 2 in 2 since i took over with an average rating of 7.76 in those 2 games.
View attachment 255657
O'Brian Woodbine - Extremely Fast Fullback, scored his first International goal in the last game, I gave him his 1st appearance for 4 years.

Northern Ireland 2011 Report:

Fixtures 2011:

I believe 2011 went well considering Northern Ireland have not lost apart from a terrible 4-2 result against Austria in a friendly. Drawing 2-2 with Italy was definitely the highlight to the season.

Euro 2012:


As you can see I missed out on Qualifying however finishing third in the group I believe was a good enough position given the nation's current ranking and expectations.

Im dropping out, this isnt going well, so Greece is up for grabs i guess
 
nearly 4 years in and I havn't got any decent regens coming through so I think I will start to slip down the rankings.

I have a couple of good regens for Czech Republic which is good because Rosicky is retiring end of season and I fear Cech and Baros will soon follow. I'll post screens later.

Greece too hard? lol
