Not with the Team instructions such as Defensive Line pushing up and stuff..

On to more important matters, the league. 3 games without a win a bad patch creeping in.

Man Utd still matching us blow for blow, They are slowly whittling our goal difference away. For now we are still top.

We have also destroyed Kobenhavn

Having already won the league cup, could we add the FA aswell?

So another FA Cup final, where we will play Norwich! For now lets look at the champions league.

Beating Arsenal home and away was brilliant, made only better by the fact the FA Cup semi was in the middle of these games, Meaning home, away and neutral we beat Arsenal!

It's youth intake time and my intake has been very kind this year.
GuernseyYouthCandidates_SquadPlayers-4-1_zps8c2d747e.png


Stephen Thompson
Looks quite good, Everything can be worked on but that bravery stat of 20 is priceless for a defender IMO. I see lots off boot to head in his future.

Rodrigo Méndez
A Uruguayan of all things in Guernsey, Nice to see influence from the 3 staff members from Uruguay. Will require alot of trining to shift Nas Davies but my coaches all think he is wonderful

Pete Dolner
Looks quality but has come in as a striker, A position we are crazy strong in. Bench then who knows.
PeteDolner_OverviewProfile_zpse48a8834.png


André Tegström
Looks to have a touch of class and is the best of this intake IMO. May see some action in our centre midfield since Mcmahon and Salt both seem very injury prone. I assume he is a by product of my Swedish feeder club, That is exactly where he will learn his trade.

Good job. I tried to do the same with Highmoor Ibis (Hellanic Premier) but started with -£500k which made it hard :)

Are you improving your stadium regularly? Thought about just building a massive new stadium? I think Guernsey has a population of 66k... try to get everyone in there! :)
 
we are still fighting on all fronts, having ecured the league cup we are going for the quadruple!

Man Utd have been a thorn in my side all season, matching us on everything we do. Luckily we beat them.

No point dragging it out we won the league. Man Utd had a mini collapse and we won it with games to spare. This allowed me to rest players with one eye on FA cup and champions league finals. I was thriled my second string played so well and kept winning aswell.

A double completed but could we pull off a domestic treble? Championship Norwich stood in our way. They were duly swatted away as we ran riot at Wembley. Led by an inspired Michael McMahon

The domestic treble is complete but ther is one more peice we covet above all others. We fell at the final hurdle last year, this year we want to put it right.

Trying to be a thorn to us one more time are Manchester United. Not only that but the final is being played at Old Trafford!

A coouple of injuries to key personel notably Lunardi and Salt left us slightly worried. However there understudies proved more than up to the task, With Dylan Clarke opening the scoring on 4 minutes to stun Old Trafford. Club legend Anthony Asante adding a 30 yard screamer in the top right hand corner on 57 minutes sealing the deal and brought big ears to the island of Guernsey for the first time ever. A historic quadruple complete.

Stadium holds 25k next step is a new one.
 
Hi, I have a question for you. I was wondering if you used the editor to change your 'youth recruitment' level before starting this save? I ask this because even in the first season you got a player with 20 finishing at 16 and Antonio Lunardi with 19 heading, 15 tackling, 17 pace and other ridiculous stats. The chance of getting players this good in your first season with Guernsey's 'limited youth recruitment' (their youth recruitment starts out as 0/20...) is near zero. Also in seasons after you got loads of amazing players even though you only upgraded your 'youth facilities', which doesn't influence youth intake (youth recruitment does, youth facilities influences how they develop). Doesn't anyone else find this suspicious?

Looks like Man Utd, Man City, Chelsea etc can't create a decent youth player, on the other hand Guernsey get premier league potential from the youth academy every year. FM's AI is poor.
 
Great stuff, how long will you carry on now?. Do you think you will get bored of your save and need a new challenge with a new club or manage a county? or will you try and do a Sir Alex Ferguson & become part of furniture at Guernsey for 25 years plus?. I've really enjoyed your story, I look forward to read your story every time, when log in FM Base forum. I hope you don't stop posting your story, even if you join a new club on current save. It would be very interesting if you could repeat this achievement with another club?, maybe start with a amateur club down at level 9, if start again on another save.
 
Brilliant season and great intake.

That's complete nonsense, he's already stated clearly he didn't edit anything and it's amazing how many people think youth facilities is a development aid to you youngsters. That's the training facilities and the youth facilities are what the pre-intake regens train on making it a factor, and a large one on the youth intake.

Lunardi i grant you, thrown up out of nowhere and has been class in every league i've had him in. My youth recruitment has been upgraded more times than i would care to count just because i don't post it on here doesn't mean it didn't happen. I've also answered the editor question a few times in this thread, you have to remember Guernsey are loaded as far as non league clubs go. Upgrades were not hard to come by, and my board were very compliant for many seasons. Once premiership money was thrown at it well everything just rocketed. Believe me or not your choice

We hardly had premiership quality every year. In fact only 2 of my first team were produced outside of the prem. City and Chelsea have pronuced next to nothing in my save, choosing to throw money at the problem instead. Man Utd on the other hand produce world class every year!

im already England manager so I will see how I go with that. I want at least one more season as I want the world club cup and to retain the champions league. After that I do fancy another leaguue and im open to suggestions on that!

Thanks for the support. I honestly don't mind answering these questions for people I can see I've done it quickly and why people might wonder. Its then upto them if they want to believe me!
