Outline
Hello everyone and welcome to my first story on Football Manager. I've played the game since FM11 and put 1100+ hours into FM12 and from then on in I haven't really looked back. I used to stream on Twitch TV but haven't felt like doing it in a while. I have for many years followed stories on this thread and since now have only started wanted to enter stories and see how it progresses. Any tips would be very helpful and helpful criticism would be very much obliged!
So as you may see, why Berwick Rangers? Firstly, Berwick are my yearly team that I start a game with on FM. No not because I am Scottish, (I for one infact am an Oxford United fan and season ticket holder) but because on FM12 I played with them and my love for them have grown since. On FM12 I was able to take them from the 4th tier to the 1st in 5 years winning the challenge cup and league cup. Unfortunately, Celtic came calling after I got them promoted to the Prem so I left them, but over the 4 years that followed, Gus Poyet was somehow able to keep them up every season and they were a solid Prem club. I started to follow their results on their match-days and even thought about buying a shirt from their shop as I completely changed the club. On FM13 I wasn't able to take them to this same success but I still played as them as Berwick are my fondest Scottish team.

History
Berwick Rangers are a club in the 4th tier of Scottish football, (League 2) and they are known as being the only football league club which plays in the Scottish System who are actually based in England. They were a club formed in 1884, but as you can tell from their competition history, they have not been that successful as a club. With the last time they were in the second tier of Scotland was in the 1980/81 season.

Squad and Transfers
I joined the club to a squad which I recognise to a large extent. There a few players who are not there which I used to play straightaway but to be fair, it's not hard for me to understand the team and the way that the players perform. Berwick have a few spine players which I play every season with and these players are as follows:
Anyway I shall leave this post here. I will carry on a for a few months in game time then update with the end of the transfer windows, show you what I have done and the development in the league. I would carry on with showing the full squad and league but I shall leave that for the next update if I get round to doing it. Any comments would be much appreciated. Thanks very much for reading this and hopefully shall see you soon.
