Ok so I guess alot of people have chosen to take Notts county up through the leagues and initially I decided not to make a story , but I suprised myself by getting notts promoted in 2 consecutive seasons and finding myself 3rd in the championship in December 2011.
So, Im going to backtrack ^^)

I began my career by signing a ton of league2 winning players and removing the "deadwood".(H)

I made ex-chelsea youngster Joe Keenan captain, and this turned out to be a good choice!
Lucien Mettomo, my experienced African International stayed solid at the back, and Ex-coventry striker Michael Mifsud was top scorer in the league 37 goals!! (39games in 45games altogether!!)
and Olivier Bernard was a revelation at left Back!!

Mid season I signed Nathon Tyson who was sublime. This result being my best..

Mate, It happens all the time once he pressed post thread it would of not done anything so he would of pressed it again there for creating 2 thread i have done it before not the end of the world.
 
Ok so I get into League 1! My pre pre-season media prediction being a comfortable top-half finish! I set my expectation high and acts for transfer budget that reflected a play off finish, It was ambitious to say the least. I recieved 4 million and a decent wage budget.
These were my transfers for 10/11:

I was amazed by the quality of player I could attract, signing Simeon Jackson, Kelvin Etuhu and Alvaro Recoba (you know him, free-kick Inter guy) AND ex tottenham Adel Taraabt who proved to be a great signing!
I also brought in Nigel Winterburn and FrankLampard Sr. to my coaching staff and make Steve Mcmanaman my Assistant,brilliant!
So with the new players brought a new formation, I devised it myself for an attcking style and called it the six-pack (4-2-2-2) - the key part was recober and taraabt getting bags full from AM.
My new attacking style was reflected in this early season result!

I started my season great, only losing about 3 games on the run up til christmas and feeling comfortable in firstoO). I made a couple of signings in January, rubio and someone (tord grip thought he was 'quality',truth is hes awful). Then Instead of continuing in first, I began to lose, and come May I was fighting for a playoff place. Luckily I finished 6th and won the playoffs with EASE:D.
