After deciding that my Proud to be british story wasnt very good, I decided to close it and start a new one, but this one will be more challenging. Ive decided to load every single nation, with every single leauge in Europe. I have started the game in January 2010, To make the game a little more intersting. I will start unemployed and try and work my way up to manage teams such as Man United, Real Madrid and A.C Milan.​

Jordan Rollinson - A background

Jordan Rollinson had a very good playing career, spanning over 21 years! He started his career at Dorchester, and then at the age of 18 he moved to Brighton and Hove Albion. After spending two years on loan, he returned to Brighton and was ready for first team action. During his time there, he made over 200 appearences, and scored 117 goals! At the age of 29, he made a move to Q.P.R, where he stayed until the end of his career. When he was entering the final stages in his playing career, Rollinson was told by his manager that he had the mental toughness to become a manager, so he set his sights on proving his manager right. Once his playing career came to a close, Rollinson put his words into action and took coaching courses, to aid his quest to become a manager. Once he had taken coaching courses, he was ready to start his management career.​


In a short interview with Rollinson, He stated that he was ready for management, and couldnt wait to get stuck into it. He said that he was a very attack minded person, who was hungry to bring success to every club he managed. When he was asked what his ultimate goal as a manager, he responded: "Being a Liverpool fan, I would love to become their manager. I would also love to win the Uefa Champions Leauge"​

How will Rollinson's careers turn out? Will he achieve his ultimate goal? Or will he end up facing the misery of relegation?

First Job

Jordan Rollinson was today contacted by 3 clubs in relation to becoming manager. Rollinson was approached by Kettering, Tranmere and Plymouth. Without second though, Rollinson accepted the offer from Plymouth, and signed a 2 year contract, earning him £1,200 per week. Plymouth currently lie 12th in the championship on 38 points. Rollinson stated that his aim is to hold onto a safe mid-table position, and then push on high next season. Rollinson currently has a reasonable squad avaliable to him, although it is rumoured he is looking for a new goalkeeper to bring in before the end of the transfer window in a few days

End of January report

Ive only be in charge of Plymouth for 4 days, but its been a pretty good start! I won my first game in charge, with a good 3-1 victory ove Sheffield Wednesday. I have also made a few signings, bringing in two strikers and a goalkeeper. I am very pleased with my new signing, and I am hoping they are going to shine for the club. Viera has already made his debut, and had a solid game, finishing with a rating of 7.10. Viduka and Vieri signed just after the Sheffield Wednesday match, and are still awaiting their debuts.​

good luck mate I will be following! Try and get Kakuta on loan he is awesome!
 
February update.

Wow. What a start to my managing career! Ive had a fantastic start losing only 1 of the ive played. The best result for me was the 6-3 thrashing of West Brom, a match I was fully expecting to loose. We are not only looking good for a mid-table finish, we are looking for a play-off position! Shows how much the media know, they predicted that we would finish 21st! If we managed to get into the play-offs, that would be a fantastic achievment in my first year of managing. Most of my praise goes to my new signings Mark Viduka and Christian Veiri, who have been playing brilliantly over the last few matches. Another play who has been performing well is di Santo. He has been scoring a few goal, showing the old boys how its done.

Next months aim

Next month, my aim as a manager lose or draw only one match, and win the rest. Doing this should put us in a play-off position, and once we are they, we aim to hold onto it​

March update

It been an average month this time, with some wins and some losses, which means that I didnt achieve me monthly aim. I am happy that we did manage to win some games, and we only dropped one place. di Santo is still playing very well, and scored 4 goals this month. Viduka is also doing well, grabbing a few goals, and getting a few assists. There are only 6 games left, I think that 7th place is a reasonable target. If we win all our games, we have a chance of finishing 6th, but realistically, im aiming for 7th place. We will have to live without Kaviedes this month, as the stiker twisted his knee and he could be out for up to 4 weeks. Hopefully his absence wont affect us, and it will give di Santo even more time to prove he is first team material

April Report

Its been a tough month. We had games against Middlesbourgh and Newcastle. They proved a tough challege, and Middlesbourgh showed their class and beat us 3-0. Thankfully, we managed to resist Newcastle, and the match finished in a 0-0 draw. The big result was our 3-1 win over Nottingham Forrest. That win closed that gap between us to just 1 point! Despire our win though, our play-off chances we're looking slim becuase Forrest had a game in hand, which they won. They took the final play-off place, and now we are looking to get that position next year. Our games against Middlebourgh and Newcastle was the first times we failed to score a goal in a match. Hopefully they will be a on-off, and we will go back to scoring many goals!

Unlucky on missing the play-offs! I'm following! Good luck!
 
End of season report

Its been a pretty good first few month for me as a manager. My favorite moment was when the full time whistle went after our 6-3 victory over West Brom. The roar from the crowed was phoenomenal. I really enjoyed that satisfying feeling when you know you have pleased your fans. I also found out what it was like to be at the opposite end of the scale. Our 3-0 home defeat against Middlebourgh left the fans very annoyed, especially with our poor finishing, and they booed us off at the end of the match. This is something I want to aviod! I want to please my fans, at whatever club im at, because they are the people who keep the club alive.
This season we we're unlucky in the Championship, loosing out on a play-off position by just 1 point! I was a rollercoster of a ride, with us keeping pace with the pack, but ultimatly just falling short at the last hurdle. I believe that if I had been manager of the club at the beginning of the season, we would have reached that play-off position. That is my goal for next season, finish in the top 6.

Wow I am impressed. Great writing to go along with a very good season. Keep building for the future, Get Kakuta, and you should get promoted next season.
Keep up the great work!
 
Play-off Final

Nottm Forrest vs Middleborugh​

Rest of England.
Its been a very supprising season in England in my opinion. The winners weren't much of a supprise, but Spurs finishing is quite something I recon. Everton in 4th too is very suprising, and it is the first time I have seen Chelsea not finish first in the first season. Arsenal finishing 8th made me laugh, and City finishing 9th was also a laugh, it shows money doesnt buy you everything. Wigan going down to is a bit supprising. I would have said they would easily stay up, but this game is very weeeeird.

Get Kakuta!

Yep I will be! I couldn't get him this season because I was over my wage budget and Chelsea wanted 50% wages paid, and the board wouldn't let me pay anything. I'll free up some money, and sign him next season :)

---------- Post added at 05:03 AM ---------- Previous post was at 04:54 AM ----------

Nottm Forrest managed to grab a 1-0 victory against Middlesbourgh. Another supprising result. I was backing Middlesbourgh all the way. That means that only 1 team relegated last year will go back up.

Yeah he was awesome for me on loan at my Port Vale side throughout League Two and League One but I am sure he will do more than a job in the Championship :)
