Transfers in:
(Unfourtnitly due do the skanky bored i didnt have much to play with, So i grabbed a few free transfers for subs and basically apart from these 3 listed below. I've got to believe in my last seasons squad.)

Tom Strong
View attachment 55123
Not the best of stats but he has potential to be better than my current strikers. Good start in preseason and hopes to do well in league.

Kamil Tevek
View attachment 55124
This turkish born Defensive midfielder is probs my best buy. Grabbed him on a free and twice the player than my current DM. His previous club was Millwall Res.

Ben hudson
View attachment 55125
A much needed buy to partner Walker at center back. He is another free transfer which i hope will make a impact,

::: Managers Pre-Season's Thoughts :::
My main aim this season is grab a play-off spot, i think its a relistic target and i will focus 100% on. I really dont need cup games filling my calander but due to clubs finances im gonna have to try my best and get as far as i can. Im about unsure about the squad at the moment as i couldnt really strengthen it to how much i would of liked and the possibility of grabbing loans is very hard it seems at moment. But im looking forward to the season ahead and i will try my **** hardest to do what i can.

I just updated myself on this story, and it is just as great as when I read it the last. No, it's greater than last :D
 
Good work so far. I really like the image above each fixture to show which competition it's in. Little things like that improve the look so much.
 
Thanks it takes a little more effort but worth it :) glad people notice to be honest :)
