Rest of October

Yakin II resumes full training
FA Cup 4th​ Qualifying Round – FM Base vs Stockport
Roberts scores again for Wales, now has 7 in 9
Firebird plays in India’s 3-3 draw with Japan
Arnie has expressed a move away from football once his career ends. Films maybe? Biggun expresses desire to be a scout
--------
FM Base 5 – 1 Welling (VCP) (17/10/15)
Scorers: Baker (5, 9, 43, 64), Banana (76)

Ratings: Redgrave 7.2, Thunderfoot 7.8, Burheim 7.6, Manbearpig 7.7, Banana 9.1, Patrik 8.1, Palmer 7.5, Mason 7.2 (Hogg --), Peters 7.1 (Roberts 6.6), Baker 9.9, Goyzueta 9.1

Nice and routine after the international break. Baker was at his destructive best, and another set piece goal from Banana sealed the points.
--------
FM Base 4 – 1 Bristol Rovers (VCP) (20/10/15)
Scorers: Roberts (19), Biggun (32), Burheim (39), Hogg (42)

Ratings: Thame 6.9, Banana 7.6, Burheim 7.6, Arnie 8.3, Whyte 7.6, Biggun 9, Dance 7.2, Litmanen 7, Patrik 7.1 (Goyzueta 6.7), Hogg 9, Roberts 7.6

We continue our high scoring form with another 4 goals in front of the Base’s loyal supporters. Burheim and Biggun both make good on their starts.
--------
FM Base 5 – 0 Stockport (FAC) (24/10/15)
Scorers: Baker (6, 17, 56 pen, 90), Mason (30)

Baker does it again. A storming display as we go through to the next round in style. Nice to keep a clean sheet as well, after some less than convincing displays at the back this month.
--------
Fish offered Altrincham job; declines
FA Cup 1st​ Round Draw: Lincoln vs FM Base – yet another home-coming for the manager
-------
FM Base 2 – 2 Lincoln (VCP) (27/10/15)

Ratings: Thame 6.7, Banana 7.2, Arnie 6.9, Thompson 6.3, Whyte 6.8, Yakin II 6.8, Dance 6.8, Post 6.5, Biggun 6.7, Hogg 6.8, Goyzueta 6.8

Not a great performance; first time we’ve scored less than 4 all month as well.
--------
Forest Green 2 – 5 FM Base (VCP) (31/10/15)
Scorers: Mason (27), Peters (56, 77), Baker (58), Goyzueta (90)

Ratings: Redgrave 7.6, Banana 7.5, Manbearpig 7.3, Burheim 7.2, Firebird 7.3, Patrik 7 (Dance --), Palmer 8, Mason 8.7, Peters 9.3, Baker 8.4, Roberts 6.9 (Goyzueta 7.2)

Back to winning ways, but only after going 2-1 down. Was all us in the 2nd​ half though, and we smash in more goals on our way to the points

Ugh, I'm not doing great. What is the current team's level would you say Godfish? Are we good enough for League 2?
 
Only 1 player doing worse than me no wonder im not playing much
 
Good month for good ol Burheim there! I see a few "wanted" marks on some of the players. What clubs are after the promising youngsters?

According to the AssMan, leading champ/decent prem. Personally, I think we are no better than league 1. Lack of fitness, inexperienced, and lack of determination in some cases means that we aren't hitting the heights we could be. As we move up the leagues though, we'll improve a lot faster.

None of the defence is exactly doing their jobs properly, it's just Thompson takes longer to recover between matches than the others. I'm considering retraining him to either DM or CM, partly so I have more options, and that he gets more game time.

I'll check when I load the file in a little bit, R Mad was after someone though iirc.

Banana is in very good form! Unfortunately, Baker is in insane form. I use my wingers as IF's, so with Baker having pretty good finishing, he's a very useful addition on that wing. I had a striker I used to deploy in the same role on FM14 that scored for fun, if I can locate a screenshot of his record, I'll add it to this post.
 
Current Wanted Status

(as of mid-November)

Redgrave - Newcastle

Biggun - Half of Europe

Peters - AC Milan, Ajax, Juve, Napoli, Inter

Firebird - AC Milan, Monaco, Napoli

Burheim - Arsenal

Manbearpig - Cruz Azul

​
 
Away this weekend, so next update is Monday, planning for both November and December with a view to sorting player screenshots out soon.

Do they all wanna give it the "Biggun!" :P

Haha! He started complaining about playing time, so a lot of clubs started circling. None of them majorly glamorous though, and I think the majority of the Greek Premier League want him.
 
Wow Cruz azul is a very reputable Mexican club that serves as a sort of western hemisphere development club for AC milan. I've gotten some crazy tallent out of there and have sent my south Americans there to train for 2 years before either being sent into the first 22 or polishing off to sell.

That being said manbearpig hates mexicans and brazilians for some reason idk.

Is that really still the reason lol

Yeah, although I can' say I'm too worried, a bid is highly likely to be forthcoming.

He's been much improved this year, the interest is probably deserved.
