Following relagation from English Northern Premier League last season Bridlington Town a.k.a The Seasiders have sacked Peter Smurthwaite and appointed EX-Captain Carl Taylor as the new Manager for the 09/10 season. Carl Taylor Notched up 312 appearances and bagged a total of 113 carrer goals at his time in the Queensgate stadium. He remains a fans favorite to this day and now the clubs hopes rely on his shoulders.

Clubs Details:

Club name: Bridlington Town AFC
Nickname: The seasiders
Chairman: **** Ansell
Stadium: Queensgate Stadium
Year Founded: 1918
Status: semi proffesional
Rivals: Scarbrough and Hull
Est Value: 120k
Greatest Triumph: FA Vase (winners) 1990 and 1993

Season 09/10:
Media Predicitons: 1st
Board Expectations: To gain promotion

Alot of sorting out was needed as the staff and players were a mess, so out went the old staff and in came the new 6 members of the new ones. Nothing to bragg about but better stats then there previous conterparts.

Transfers In:
Name: Tommy Noble
Age: 33
Postion: Striker
From: Clacton (Free Transfer)
Notes: Not much known about him but i took my scouts word and swooped him up!

Name: Micheal Yates
Age: 30
Postion: Forward
From: Witton

Name: Leon Green
Age: 26
Postion: Striker
From: Enfield (Free Transfer)
Notes: I tried and tested him before on a previous save and he bagged a few goals so hoping he is going to be up for the challange again.

Name: David Bate
Age: 28
Postion: Center Mid
From: Tipton (Free Transfer)
Notes: Another trusted word from my scouts and hoping to add some dominence in my midfield.

Name: Sam Aslop
Age: 25
Postion: CenterBack
From: Bromsgrove
Notes: Used before and was a solid rock at the back

These are my pick of the bunch i think and hoping they will bring great things for BTAFC. I got rid of about 11 players and brought in 10. With no money and hardly any wage budget i think ive grabbed a few bargins but only the following season will really tell.

Pre-season:
With a total of 6 games to play in pre-season i knew i didnt have long to test and try tactics before the new season gets underway.

Pre- Season:
Bridlington Town (3) v.s Bridlington Town reserves (1)
Scorers: Allanson, Hotte, Wilkenson
M.O.M: Tom macdonald- His passing and 2 assists were the key to todays win.
Team: Still need to gel together and correct alot of mistakes
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Bridlington Town (0) v.s GH Acadamy (1)
Team: A poor display for the seasiders only creating 4 shots the whole game, Lesson LEARNT!
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Bridlington Town (1) v.s Brigg (0)
Scorers: T.Noble
M.O.M: Luke Moulds - Dominate at the back today winning alot of key headers.
Team: overall a gritty but solid performance
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Bridlington Town (3) v.s Harrogate Railway (1)
Scorers: Yates x2, Green
M.O.M: Yates- Bagging 2 goals and creating the 3rd
Team: Created alot of chances with over half being on target, improvement made but defence still lacking the X-factor
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Howden-LE-Wear (1) v.s Bridlington Town (1)
Scorer: Cattermole
M.O.M: Cattermole - The left back grabbing a well deserved goal to cap off a great defensive job
Team: If only cattermoles team mates turned up to the same game he did. A very poor display but still Gelling together.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Bridlington Town (2) v.s Garforth (0)
Scorers: Green, Dyer
M.O.M: Green- His goal and assist along with a great aerial battle was enough to award him for a great game.
Team- A solid display with alot of chances created and a nice solid defensive display

Pre-season Report:
After settling for a tactic which seemed fitting, the team started to produce some nice flowing football. Alterations are needed for defence and maybe a added ball winner in the middle of the park wouldnt go amiss. Things are set for a long season ahead of us brining 38 league games and a possbile of 4 extra cups to play in.
 
now as a off post, im into season 10/11 because i didnt intend on doing this as a story but i have got so much into it i thought i would turn it into one. So for the first season ill be putting up screenies of games but wont be able to do a month by month league table due to obvious reason. But at the moment on my save ive just started the new 10/11 season so it will get alot more detailed then :) so bare with me through the first season please :)

After college i can do the whole season update so wont take too long :)


Happy reading!

Arnold (0) v.s Bridlington (1)

Scorers: Noble
M.O.M: Bate
Team: With the league pretty much in the bag, ive started resting a few players for the big cup ties towards the end of the month and it gives me a chance to find sum new talent. But still it relied on Tommy "gun" Noble to come on as a sub and smash a late winner!

Northern Counties Eastern Premier
Dinnington (1) v.s Bridlington Town (2)

Scorers: Green (2)
M.O.M: Green

Northern Counties Eastern Premier
Bridlington Town (1) v.s Scarbrough Ath (0)

Scorers: Yates
M.O.M: Bate
Team: A Match which was very important , not just for the league but for ourselves, after sucoming to a defeat to there bitter rivals earlier in the year, we needed to prove we are the force at Queensgate Stadium. I fielded my strongest team and victory was ours. A header from Yates in the 39th minute was enough to seperate the teams. We were by far the dominate side today.

Northern Counties Eastern Premier
Bridlington Town (0) v.s Hall Road Rangers (1)

Scorers :
M.O.M:
Team:It was a return to queensgate park for Paul Palmer, a former striker and top scorer for the sea siders. He made a lasting impression by grabbing the man of the match and setting up the only goal of the game. Pretty even affair but no where near full strength.

Bridlington Town (3) v.s Bindford (0)

Scorers: Greulich (2), Hotte

We was wrong, we dominated them in every area even tho 2 of the goals coming in the last 10 minutes. We was always on the front foot and hardly challanged. A great mental win for the second leg in a weeks time. Bates was on fire today with a string of deadly though balls and grabbing 2 assists.
