Well I couldn't shift any of these lot on so free transfers for them all! I was over my wage budget and needed to free up some space so it was worth doing. Vidovic was my only foreign player (been in reserves) and no one had showed any interest so now Hansa are pure German (with the occasional dual nationality here and there). Schunemann actually had pretty decent potential, but with about 7 other better CDMs with similar/better potential it was no use keeping him around whilst he wasn't playing or developing (he's 22), especially since he was complaining about not playing.

This allowed me to bring in Pokar on a free! I tried to sign him in pre-season but didn't have the wage funds available. We were lacking in the AMC department and he will hopefully provide some quality on the ball and from dead-ball situations.
View attachment 328894
Really disappointed with this. I attempted to sign him on a free for the summer when his contract expires and thought he would have accepted the contract but NEC snook in first. He would have been a solid signing for us. A young centre back with experience in a higher league, but alas it wasn't meant to be.

A new year and a slightly new layout for my match reviews just to give a bit more info. Saw it employed by xJamieWilliams on his Carragher story and I quite liked it, so if you're reading this Jamie, thanks in advance for letting me steal it. Pretty comfortable win but disappointed to concede!

Tbh it would have been a real gutter if we didn't get a point against lowly Regensburg. I am terribly disappointed we didn't get a win and more points on the board but it's still another game without defeat (now 9). A real sloppy goal to concede too and it's two months since we last had a clean sheet! May need some tactical tweaks but scared to do too much whilst we are unbeaten.
View attachment 328883
Just five points off the top three. This league reminds me quite a lot of the Championship with how tight it is. A couple of wins and you're up there, a couple of losses and you're dropping fast. I hope we can continue our form and push up toward the top. Ultimately, that isn't our goal this season and I shouldn't be too disappointed if we don't finish top 3. However, I have the taste of unbeaten on my tongue and gosh it's moreish!
View attachment 328888
Two goals in his last fixture earns Blacha POM. He's one of our best players (arguably the best), yet his form hasn't been quite as I'd hoped. May tinker with his player role and see if I can bring out some more of the best in him!
February sees us line up against three of the top 8 teams in Munster, Kiel and Grossaspach, as well as a game vs table-propper-uppers Stuttgart II. Tough month but we are relishing it.

A win and clean sheet. Great to keep it tight at the back whilst earning the 3 points.

This is how the league table is looking. 9th in a tight league with only 6 points separating us and the top 3. A late push could see us up there.

POM goes to Daniel Vier. After being returned to the side we've been a bit tighter at the back. He had a poor spell early in his Rostock career but now he's in good form with some solid ratings and a goal this month.
View attachment 328571
Well, we've become the feeder club of Bayern to earn a bit more money and try and grab some quality loanees and maybe even some of their youth prospects not deemed good enough for the Bayern squad. If they choose to release/sell these players they might be more likely to sell to us on the cheap. Hoping this has it's benefits whilst we climb the tables.
March is a hopefully to be a slightly more exciting month with five games and youth recruitment day. Really hoping for some quality youth players as well as some good footballing results.

Always an exciting time in a Home-Grown dedicated save as we have to largely rely on the players we bring through the ranks. Here is a look at the trialists.

A lot of players with decent potential. Most of them were signed on to add depth to a threadbare u19 squad. High hopes for quite a few of these players. Here are the best picks of them...
View attachment 328489View attachment 328487View attachment 328484View attachment 328491
Borowski, Kostmann, Malinowski and Berger
These are four of the best from this years youth intake. Particularly excited by Borowski and Malinowski but Kostmann was rated as the best of the youth intake according to my HoYD, and at just 14y/o he has lots of time to develop. Tutoring has already started on these players and I shall be looking to post an update on their progression after approx six months or so.
View attachment 328475
Here are the final six games of the season. A home fixture vs Osnabruck is sandwiched between away trips to Erfurt and Halle in what will be some tough games. If we can capitalise here we could set ourselves up for a promotion push in the last month. I must remain grounded however and realise that my objectives for this year is a respectable finish. Now I am close I really want this though! On to April!

It makes me wish we had an ok start and we'd be up there. I've forgotten what it feels like to lose, which I guess is a bit dangerous. Hope we can make some good signings in the summer either way. The German talent isn't that great/is expensive but we will hopefully bag a couple of decent players and rock on.

Going from almost getting sacked to 18 games unbeaten is quite an achievement, also great work on the deal with Bayern, they have quite some young talented players so that should work out pretty well for you. Can't wait to see the next update and see where you finished in the season!

21 games unbeaten with 11 wins and 10 draws in that time. A great run ruined by poor form at the beginning and end of the season means we finish 6th. I am happy with this as it is above season expectations, but I am also frustrated at the number of points we dropped to teams we are superior than. If we don't get top 3 next season it will be a travesty.

Player of the season goes to Christian Stuff who ensured all those 0-0 draws (eight 0-0s in one season!!!) didn't finish 0-1!

Too bad that you didn't manage to get promoted in the end, still ending 6th is still a huge achievement after the start you had. Pretty confident that you will manage to get promotion next season especially now that you can loan some Bayern talent

Thanks mate. It's a shame, especially after the great run, but our early form let us down. Just going to blitz pre-season now. Depending on how hectic it is I will either post a few updates or just round it up at the end. I am really hoping we can get some Bayern talent in on loan though!

Well, I stated I would be challenging for the title when I signed my new contract. Unfortunately I signed two weeks before the end of the season (with no way of pushing for the title as mathematically impossible) and so now this happened...

Remind me next time to state minimum expectations and then ask for an increased budget during pre-season!

Pre-season/July 2015
2015/2015 kicks off! For all of you who haven't followed, this is a home-grown challenge, as I look to bring Rostock up the leagues relying solely on German players, especially through my quality youth facilities and above average youth recruitment and average youth coaching. All of which are good for this league.

So here are the transfers out. No one too worthy of note except maybe Schwertfeger who pretty much forced a move away to a league above...

Here are the transfers we brought in... We had a budget of about 500k and the departures freed up wages. The board didn't reinvest any of the Schwertfeger departure which was annoying but this is who we brought in. (We now have no budget remaining as these players commanded higher wages)

Here are the transfers we made! Mittelstadt and Conde are for the future but may get game time this year. Leistner is a first choice CB with promising stats. Deville is back up striker but has some good target man stats and international experience. Schuhen is back up keeper. Korte adds a great bit of quality on the wings. Definitely our star signing this summer. Sane offers some pace up front as well, with Ziemer a bit hit and miss.

Early doors! Hamburg II up next in August.
A quick analysis on my pre-season. A few youngsters are coming through and I will look to do features on them soon as they look to break into the first team squad. Bringing in quality home-grown players is a real tough ask. The quality of available non-HG players is a lot higher and this makes me a little worried in my quest to go forward. I am still pretty happy with my recruitment this season but was unable to bring in any loanees from Bayern (my new affiliate) as their players weren't interested (very annoying!) I also tried to sign Nick Proschwitz as well as a couple of other players who opted for other teams, with Proschwitz joining Regensburg. Incredibly annoying as he would have been a great target man! Aims of the season are to push for promotion so stay tuned for next month, providing the board don't get too rash and sack me!

August 2015 & Transfer Deadline Day
Busy, busy month with four fixtures and transfer deadline day. Again, we found it difficult to find quality German players on the cheap yet had to fend off bids for some of our young prospects.

A really poor result against one of the worst teams in the league so far. We should have battered them but nice to see a debut goal from Sane.

Another game where we really dominated possession and really limited the opposition's impact on the game. The way we are playing at the moment I am quite confident this season.

Certainly a better looking table compared to this point last year but I am disappointed to have lost two games so early in the season. Time to kick on and get some more points on board!

POM goes to newby Leistner who is looking rather consistent at the back!
Transfer deadline day was quite busy for us. We sold one player in Stevanovic leaving to Partizan for £120k.
View attachment 327698
As his stats show, he's quite average and he also suffers injury problems. No harm getting him off the books when we have talented players like Christiansen there ahead of him.

Here are the players we brought in on a difficult deadline day. Burger and Hurzeler both signed from 1860 Munchen, the first on loan and the last on a free. Both should provide good depth. Thank you Bayern for sending Sinan Kurt my way! Although Blacha is one of our best players at AML, Kurt will provide competition or find himself starting. Finally, Vass was a loan move to back up Weidlich at RB, who has been largely inconsistent at times.
View attachment 327692
A quick round-up of the transfer window in our league. Despite having a budget of £500k and selling £400k of players, we were still the biggest spenders after putting out £325k on new players. The rest went into wages/into my board's pocket. As you can see, we fended off a bid for very talented prospect Borowski who came through in March.
That wraps up August. I will try and post some current player screenies soon to give an idea of what I am working with and whose stats have developed nicely over the last year!

POM goes to newby Leistner who is looking rather consistent at the back!
Transfer deadline day was quite busy for us. We sold one player in Stevanovic leaving to Partizan for £120k.

As his stats show, he's quite average and he also suffers injury problems. No harm getting him off the books when we have talented players like Christiansen there ahead of him.

Here are the players we brought in on a difficult deadline day. Burger and Hurzeler both signed from 1860 Munchen, the first on loan and the last on a free. Both should provide good depth. Thank you Bayern for sending Sinan Kurt my way! Although Blacha is one of our best players at AML, Kurt will provide competition or find himself starting. Finally, Vass was a loan move to back up Weidlich at RB, who has been largely inconsistent at times.

A quick round-up of the transfer window in our league. Despite having a budget of £500k and selling £400k of players, we were still the biggest spenders after putting out £325k on new players. The rest went into wages/into my board's pocket. As you can see, we fended off a bid for very talented prospect Borowski who came through in March.
That wraps up August. I will try and post some current player screenies soon to give an idea of what I am working with and whose stats have developed nicely over the last year!

Sad to hear about you getting sacked as I quite liked this story

The contract negotiation at the end of last season consigned me to the sack really. My job status was insecure after a very successful sixth finish. A glitch on the game really as I thought I was signing a contract with the aims for next season. From then I was insecure a the start of the season, with players getting anxious and before I knew it I couldn't get a win to save my life. We were dominating games as well. Drew six out of the nine, just unable to score the chances that came our way and threw away leads by sloppy own goals and other stupid scenarios. I'm really annoyed about it as my team didn't change too much so no real explanation as to why we weren't performing. I've found my tactic went in cycles of being unbeatable and unable to win. No idea why or what but it's too late now. Either find a new job in this save or start afresh. I don't really feel up for it at the moment! Thanks very much for following though!
See above Lippo! Just for you mate.
