Glad to see your still going strong, Getting out of league 1 might be abit of challange a top half finish shouldnt be too hard, Maybe get into the promotion places although it does look like your gonna need a few new signings as you say if promotion is to happen.

I see you loaded up on midfielders though, Does this mean the end off the road for Phillips and Francis or are they now backup players?.To be first team players for 3 seasons for BSN players is good going but surely they cant cut it in league 1.
 
you are a beast of a manager!!!

I dont think i would have the patience LOL

good on ya mate
 
The season is underway and we are 10 games in sitting 2nd right now on 25 points, 8 wins 1 draw and 1 loss, Coventry currently hold top spot with 10 wins out of 10 with Leicester and Southampton on 22 just behind me and Southend on 21 and Bradford on 18 making up the top 6 right now.

A few new faces have been added to my team since my last update most of who have proved very helpful either as first team or backup players.Sorry Plink but Phillips and Francis are now only backup players however Francis is valued at 150k now so i think i'll try and offload him, Not bad for someone valued at 1k 3 seasons ago.

Transfers:
Chris Blackburn DRC - Free Transfer
Marian Keleman GK - Free Transfer
Adam Cass MR - Free Transfer
Robert MacLennan MRL - Free from Clyde
Shane Cansdell-Sherriff RLC DM MC- Free Transfer

A few signings i sadly missed out on were Ian Ashbee who went to Warsall and James Beattie who went to Bradford.Gutted to have missed out on Beattie i've always been a fan of his but oh well.

League 1
Gateshead 1-0 Hartlepool
David Livermore opens the scoring with a wonderful effort from just outside the box on 13 mins.Sadly on 20 mins Oliver is injured so i have to switch to 3-1-4-2 because Oliver was my backup CB.The match dies down with no action seen at either end.On 61 mins Douglas is injured for the visitors but thats the only real action of the 2nd half.Happy to have won my first game in the league.

League Cup 1st Round
Hartlepool 0-1 Gateshead
The only goal of the game comes after 10 mins when Flynn puts it in his own net following a Livermore corner.The match is just poor with no action at all apart from a few bookings and half chances so i'll leave it at that.Glad to have won and go through but it was a poor match.

League 1

The scoring is opened by Soley on 9 mins when Livermore swings in a corner right onto his head.Its 2-0 on 25 mins when Blackburn nets his first goal for the Tynesiders from another Livermore corner.45 mins and McCready is injured for the visitors and that ends the first half.66 mins in and Soley nets his 2nd of the game following another Livermore corner and the game is sealed on 70 mins when Doninger hits a cracking goal for 25 yards out.Great result, Great performance and Livermore has proved a great signing so far.

League 2
Notts Co 2-3 Gateshead
Izzet opens the scoring on 14 mins for the hosts.Talbot sees red on 16 mins for the hosts letting the Tynesiders back into the game.The first half comes to a end without the Tynesiders even getting a shot off though.Thats soon changed on 46 mins though when Soley gets up for a Livermore corner and levels the scoring.Greacen makes it 2-1 on 61 mins though hitting us on the counter.Doninger levels it up again on 68 though with a powerful header from a Horwood cross.The Tynesiders steal the win on 90+1 when Fallon nets his first for the club with a clever shot from outside the box.Great game and im delighted to have stole the win.

JPT N 2nd Round
Shrewsbury 0-2 Gateshead
Boring first half seeing very little action apart from a booking or 2.Kandol is replaced at half time by Lawrie because Kandol SUCKS.79 mins in and Lawrie finds the net following some goos work from Fallon.Doninger nets on 89 mins to seal the win with a wonderful freekick from just outside the area.Glad to be through but i repeat Kandol SUCKS.

League 1
Walsall 0-1 Gateshead
Marwood in injured on 6 mins giving Cass his first game for the Tynesiders but thats the only action of the first half and pretty much the whole of the second half too if im honest.The goal finally comes on 82 mins and its Mr late goal himself, Fallon whos nets it after a clever ball over the top from new signing Cansdell-Sherriff.Glad to have won what was a very very poor match.

As you can see theres been some ups and downs so far but still along way to go and im feeling quietly confident about getting promotion although winning the league is a different matter.As for that waste of wages Kandol when i say he sucks i mean he really really sucks, 1 goal in 9 games and no assists hes dire.

Had to edit forgot to add the Peterborough game.

What tactic are you useing any chance you can upload it on to the thread
 
Current tactics is a 4-4-2 formation with alot of width and high tempo, Sometimes i will slow the game down and drop the tempo and passing style down to half way when im either ahead and under pressure of at the start of tougher away games then pump it up in the last 20 mins and try and steal it.heres my current tactics though.

If you need the player instructions just let me know and i'll get you them.
 
20 games in still sitting in second with Coventry holding top spot by 3 points but i didnt expect to win this league so im suprised im up challanging for the top spot really.Only 1 new signing snapped up just before the free transfer window shut, Ben Hutchinson a striker on a free to give me some extra cover upfront.

League 1

First half is very poor with nothing happening at all.Second half starts the same way too until Clifford nets on 66 mins.On 84 mins Kandol manages to stab the ball home from point blank range to level the scoring.Smith is sent off on 86 mins for a foul on Kandol and from the resulting freekick Kandol nods home when Doninger swings it into the box.Good result and nice to see Kandol scoring although i still dont like him.

Southampton 3-5 Gateshead
Fallon opens the scoring on 18 mins following some good work from Livermore.On 35 mins Soley gets up and nods home a Livermore corner.Kandol finds the net on 49 mins after some strong play from Fallon and we are 3 up and looking comfortable.Morrison nets on 51 mins for the hosts to give them a lifeline.Bailey then makes it edgey on 65 mins and when morrison nets his second on 82 mins im shocked we threw away a 3 goal lead.Livermore puts us back infront on 84 mins though when his cross finds its way past the keeper and on 86 mins Doninger hits a powerful effort from outside the box to seal the win.Great game but so poor to give away 3 goals so easy.

Gateshead 2-1 Leicester
22 mins in and Routledge gives the visitors the lead.Its all level on 42 mins when Livermore nets following a cross from Horwood.74 mins in and we grab the win when Livermores corner finds the head of Soley.Good result and nice to finally beat Leicester.

Some good results and some poor ones but we are still up there, Player of the season so far has to be Mark Doninger the MC is my top goal scorer, 28 games 15 goals 5 assists 5 MoM awards and a average rating of 7.39 would love to bring him on full time next season but his 1.7 million price tag says thats not happening but another loan is looking a good option.

Will update again soon.
 
Looks like promotion is getting closer keep up the good work and you will be in the premiership in a few more seasons.Sad to see Phillips and Francis drop down the pecking order but your right for Francis to go from valued at 1k to 150k is impressive and i dont blame you one bit for cashing in on him, Seems like Doninger has stepped into his place and picked up where he left off anyway.
 
30 games in now and sitting 2nd in League 1 by 1 point with a game in hand over Coventry.Still in the FA Cup making it to the 5th round for the first time after avoiding Premiership and Championship teams in the 3rd and 4th round we made it to the 5th round but i think thats where the FA Cup ends for us and we got Everton we are at home but im still expecting to be beaten quite heavily in that one.

Only 1 new signing bringing back Godsmark from Newcastle to cover on RM after losing all 3 of my RM to long term injuries.

League 1
Gateshead 0-1 Notts Co
Poor first half with limited chances.Second half is going the same way and this match is looking like a draw until we lose our keeper Keleman on 73 mins and dont have a replacement keeper due to him being called up to the Sweden team.Fallon has to go in net for us and that proves a mistake when he turns the ball into his own net on 77 mins.Gutted to have lost this one its just one of those things.

League 1
Gateshead 0-0 Brighton
Soley is sent off on 5 mins so we go alittle more defencive.40 mins in and we lose our key player when Doninger goes down.The match goes flat with Brighton dominating but not being able to score.I'll take this after going down to 10 men so early.

Some good results and bad ones, Losing 3 on the bounce was abit annoying but some good wins in there too.I managed to sell Francis to Scunthorpe for 200k (100k upfront 100k over 12 month) sad to see him go but i couldnt turn down that price for him.He scored past me too which is a real kick in the teeth.

 
Looking good so far, Guess you will be in the championship soon enough.Nice to see you cashed in on Francis although him scoring against you is just typical really.The 3 on the bounce isnt that bad really, You bounced back from those defeats and thats all that matters.
 
The season is over and we finished top of the league by 1 point, Coventry just crumbled and it was Leicester who push us in the final part of the season.We just managed to pick it up in the final few games but my god did we did a rough patch prior to that.Also won the JPT which was a nice bonus and not really expected.

Its been 16 games in the league plus cup games since my last update so i'll just upload a screenshot of the results as typing all that out would take me forever and im just lazy.

As you can see my strikeforce just went to pot in the final 15 games or so and in the final few games it was Soley and Blackburn who were getting me the goals but without a strikeforce in form as you can see the results were not exactly good but we won the league so im happy.

Just got the sponsorship info for League 1 and im in shock really.In total the clubs in League 1 generated around 10.75 million in sponsorship, Gateshead generated 6.5 million of that on their own.Im delighted to have that much backing from my sponsors i have no idea where the **** it came from but im not gonna complain 1 bit.

Finally back playing my Gateshead game and the Championship is looking like a 2 season thing.I really dont see myself breaking into the playoffs let alone getting automatic promotion even with the signings i have made i still think top 10 is a good target for me.

Ferdi Elmas AML - 60k from RBC Roosendaal
Jon Harley D/WB/AML - Free from Watford
Matty Fryatt ST - Free from Leicester

Pretty much signed up a entire new team for this season which explains the preseason results, The team is still trying to gel so im not too fussed about the results right now.

Preseason:

Morton 1-2 Gateshead
Matty Fryatt opens the scoring after 3 mins after some good play from Ferdi.10 mins in and Jon Harley goes off injured.45+1 and Fryatt nets his second following a clever flick on from Counago.Perry grabs a goal for the hosts on 48 mins.Ferdi goes off injured on 80 mins but the win is ours.Good result for a team in there first match together.

Clyde 1-2 Gateshead
Gaughan puts it in his own net on 7 mins to give the visitors the lead.Eaglesham levels it up on 12 mins though.Counago scores the winning goal on 41 mins with a diving header.Good result away from home.

Gateshead 1-1 Norwich
Murphy scores the opener for the visitors on 16 mins.Counago levels it up on 27 mins with a towering header.The match goes dead and no more action is seen.I'll take the draw i suppose.

Gateshead 1-2 Swansea
Kalambay scores a own goal on 36 mins to give the visitors the lead.McDonald levels it up on 50 mins with a cracking effort from 25 yards out.McHugh steals the win for the visiotors or 87 mins.Poor to lose again late on but still preseason went ok.

Some big teams in the Championship this season making it even harder to get out of the league but i'll do my best i suppose.
 
Glad to see your back playing your game, Thought you might have given up on it.You ended last season strong and you have made a **** of a lot of signings this season.Giving yourself 2 seasons is a wise move i think but you should be ok getting into the top 10 if you stay injury free in the key areas.

Harley, Keogh and Ingimarsson could be key to your season though you have 3 decent championship defenders there.cant say i know your keeper but he has the best name ever.

Good luck on your new season, Hopefully will see you in the premiership in a season or 2.
 
Yea Plink alot of this season is gonna ride on my teams defence which is a new thing for me because im used to scoring and not worrying about defending but i know that wont work in the Championship.

Signed up 3 new players although 2 are joining me in January i managed to pick up experienced striker Kevin Davies on a free which im delighted with as i've always been a fan of him.The other 2 are 2 German youths Ali Sar a striker i picked up from Kassel for 2k and Benjamin Meier a AML i picked up for 1k from Regensburg II both look quite promising but only time will tell.

Championship
Gateshead 0-1 West Ham
First half we dominated but the team clearly hasnt gelled yet and made little chances.Second half got off to a bad start when Chertien netted the only goal of the game on 52 mins.Im actually happy with this result as they are newly relegated and still have a premiership quality side.

League Cup 1st Round
Scunthorpe 0-3 Gateshead
McDonald opens the scoring on 16 mins with a simple tap in after good play from Alberto.Counago nets on 22 mins with a simple header after a good cross from Prutton.On 28 mins McDonald hits a power shot from 25 yards out to end the game.32 mins and Soley goes down injured to be replaced by Cansdell-Sherriff who see red on 63 mins which killed the game off.Good result away from home and glad to be through.

Gateshead 4-3 West Brom
Tomlinson opens the scoring for the visitors on 24 mins and its soon 0-2 when Valero smashes home on 28 mins.Prutton grabs a lifeline on 45+1 after a ball over the top from Davies.Ferdi levels it up on 73 mins with a powerful effort cutting in from the left.Extra time becons and its West Brom who take the lead again this time through Wayne Bridge.100 mins in and its level again through Davies with a trademark header.116 mins and Davies gets onto a Harley corner and powers home.Great result for us and we took a premiership scalp.

Championship

Championship

Davies is injured after only 16 mins but Le Coz opens the scoring after 20 mins cutting in from the right and just slamming it home.45+1 and its all level when Bryne scores a tap in.The match is sealed when Prutton grabs a simple goal on 76 mins.Good win away from home but loosing Davies is gutting.

Le Coz opens the scoring on 40 mins with a clever goal when Prutton lays off a freekick he just hammers it home.Fryatt gets on the scoresheet after 76 mins when Counago flicks the ball on and he chips the keeper.Good result and good all round performance.

Championship
Gateshead 1-4 Fulham
Stoor opens the scoring after 10 mins.McDonald levels it up follow a mix up in the Fulham box.Zamora the hits a hattrick netting on 50, 58 and finishing up with a pen on 74 mins when Keogh brings him down.Poor result i know they have a premiership level squad but at home to conceed 4 and create so little sucks.

League Cup Round 3
Gateshead 3-1 Sheffield Wed
Keogh opens the scoring after 9 mins getting onto a Harley corner.Its 2-0 on 18 mins when fryatt scores a simple header from a Twumasi cross, 31 mins and we lose Horwood through injury so Godsmark is on.The visitors grab a lifeline on 45+2 when Wood nets.The game is over when Godsmark nets a fine goal cutting in from the left and rounding the keeper.Great result and we are through.

Some good results there, Glad to have the 3 relegated teams out of the way suffering 3 defeats to them is ok as we actually look really strong against all other teams.davies and fryatt are looking strong as is Le Coz, Counago is playing well when coming on but the back line is looking edgey sometimes.

 
17 games into the Championship and we are doing alot better than i thought we would.By no means are we gonna win this league but we are sitting in 5th place with 33 points level on points with Fulham who are 6th and only 1 point behind Norwich and Sawnsea who are 3rd and 4th but a massive 7 points behind West Ham in 2nd and 11 points behind Portsmouth who sit top.

11 wins 0 draws and 6 loses so far but those loses have come against West Ham, Portsmouth, Fulham, Swansea and Norwich which are all the teams in the top 6 aswell as a poor loss to Millwall who are way down in 19th which sucked.

Only 1 new signing, Pedro Vaga a AML on a free transfer, 16 corners and freekick taking which is was really lacking so hopefully my CB's will net more goals now.

Championship
Norwich 1-0 Gateshead
First half was very poor and in all honesty we dominated it but couldnt get a goal.However all that dominance proved pointless when Stevenson hit a 35 yard freekick into the back of the net on 74 mins.Really gutted to have lost after dominating the match but oh well.

Yea Rollsie its going really well, Im still not counting my chickens just yet as i still think top 10 is a good goal to set myself but if i can keep up with those in the playoffs and be up there at the end of the season i will be delighted even if i dont get promoted.

Couldnt play tonight though as i was banned for 1 night by the gf, That Millwall defeat just raged me i guess i got abit too vocal because she bounced me out the bedroom and sentenced me to a night on the sofa.Got home from work tried to soften her up but she was having none of it.The ban will be lifted when i get home from work after i promised to visit her parents on the weekend, I would rather be fined 2 weeks wages than that but i drew the short straw on this one.Still anything is better than another night of soaps.
 
Just a quick question, you know people say they released players, does that mean put them on market and sold or released them by paying compensation?
