I recently posted a story about taking AS Monaco back to where they belong but figured after 10 games, it was a bit too straight forward. So taking a different route, here is a new story based in the Faroe Islands.
The Faroe Islands are situated in the North Atlantic halfway between Iceland and Norway. A recent census confirms that around 50,000 people live on these island outcrops. The Faroe Islands joined FIFA in 1988 and any matches before this date have been considered unofficial; two years later they joined UEFA. They have gained some memorable results notably frustrating Scotland by drawing with them during the European Championship qualifiers in 2000 and 2004.
History
Undrŏ FF has no history to speak of as the club was founded in 2006 making them the youngest member of the Faroese football association. In 2010 they reached the finals of the 3. Delid before losing to B36 but still gaining promotion where they play to this day. They play at the 5,000 capacity stadium Gundadalur in Torshavn.

Undriŏ FF today announced Sam Donovan as their new manager. Reports have circulated in the press in recent days that Undriŏ were looking to appoint a new manager and it is a move that has not surprised many. Undriŏ have performed well under expectations this season crashing out of the Faroese cup and only registering 3 wins from 16 games. Donovan expressed his pride and pleasure in taking charge of an ailing side and promised great things but may not achieve them this season. He arrives with a squad on amateur contracts and no transfer budget.
Donovan pointed out that he thought goalkeeper Terji Rasmusen and forward Johan Ejvind Restorff Mouritsen would lead the team to glory.
