So the Scottish Premier League is back to what it used to be like with Rangers and Celtic fighting it out and pushing away from the chasing pack, Its all to play for only 1 point behind Celtic halfway through the season.

Just to let you all know, i have not been given any money for January! So wont be doing any real business as we are struggling with the depth of the squad already and have a lot of youngsters in the squad so cant afford to sell anyone first.
Im not used to this after PSG and Shakhtar!

January 2018

So i didnt get any extra money for the winter transfer window so there was very little buisness, I let Dexter Blackstock and Ebanks Blake go on frees to free up some wages and only brought in Stewart Downing to help out on the wings.

Great going mate !! Has the limerick story stopped !!

My plan for this years FM is to have only 2 stories until next years FM comes out so i will just go between the two stories, at the moment all the club swapping is interesting me greatly and the story is having a lot of views but will go back to Limerick i expect when i have a tough time of it on this save and so on, Want to get 20 years plus on both saves. Think the Limerick one was just a bit too soon after 13 seasons with them on FM13.

What a result! Seager was the difference and at only 21 is going to be amazing in the future, only downside was youngster O Leary picking up a bad injury.

You never seem to have any players in the top goalscorer list!

You never seem to have any players in the top goalscorer list!

I know man, it used to be an obsession of mine with my Limerick save in 13 seasons my best player David *** only won top goalscorer 3 times! My players always seem to score more goals in the cup competitions. I do have 3 main strikers so the goals are spread out a bit with Church having 20 goals, Seager 18 goals and Simpson on 12 goals.
thanks for reading.

So a couple of okay players but the left winger looks like he could be something special.

So Dunn will definitly get some game time as i hope to promote youth in my time in Scotland, the current squad has an average age of just 22 and 4 first team regulars who are under 21.

Another very busy month with so many cup games! I have already had 52 games this season with Rangers. We collected 10 points in the league this month from 4 games.

6 points clear of Celtic now but they have a game in hand, I think we are finally at the stage were i can dream of winning the Scottish Premier League this season and breaking the Celtic stranglehold.

Player Stats

Still no one in the top league goalscorer area our best league scorer is Simon Church who has 26 goals but only 11 in the league.​

 

[coolmcool]

Right off to work now but luckily only for half a day, then i have 2 and a half days off first time in months ive had that long off so expect plenty of updates this weekend, im 99% sure i will stay at Rangers for another season no matter what happens as there are lots of good youth players coming through and im enjoying building the team up. hope you guys are liking Scotland too!

Fiorentina will be a very tough side with their strikeforce of Doumbia, Guidetti and Mandzukic, they have won 2 Italian Cups and 1 Italian Super Cup in the last 5 seasons.

Demolished in Italy DOH!

View attachment 450143

Well it was an amazing run while it lasted but its definitely over for this season.

Loss at Home

View attachment 450142

I think we saved a little dignity with this result, although we lost the match and the tie we didnt deserve to lose tonight in Scotland.

Lose To Raith In Scottish Cup Semi Final

View attachment 450139

Some days your just not going to win, i just dont know how we lost this match! They scored 3 goals from 5 shots and we had 26 shots! They had a player sent off and had hardly any possesion but still beat us on penalties, Why did it have to happen in the cup match!

April Fixtures

So to effectively get knocked out of 2 competitions in only 5 days was a little hard to take but im going to stay for another season at least so the Scottish Cup will be highest on the agenda for next season.

A layoff like this means his career is all but over at 32 he will never be the same player again.

Shows how lucky we were in the Europa League and won a lot of ties on away goals and so forth.

So the Premier League could be decided in our match away to Celtic

View attachment 450124

Oh yes what a result despite them having more shots and better possession, Simpson was more clinical in-front of goal.

Do the Double

Scottish Premier League and League Cup is pretty good going for my first season in charge as we beat the Celtic stranglehold and win the title.
