Im around 6 months ahead of the updates but will show you them when i have caught up, their pretty poor to be honest, we live on Champions league money as domestically we only earn a few million and have an expenditure of £20Million thanks to all the facility upgrades, to make the club sustainable im going to have to start selling some of my big names if i have a younger replacement with potential and hope the youth intake gives me a few players to bring through.Please show the clubs finances
Im not sure that if i even get the Irish league to one of the best if our prize money for winning even goes up. Ive started to sell some fringe players with it mainly being MLS teams and Championship sides interested, now that we have better players i can sell fringe players for a few 100k which is a lot more than i could get for my best players at the start, but overall we are always in the red before the champions league starts again

He was refusing to sign a new deal a few months ago but i managed to bring him around and thank god as at only 26 he could be a major player for us for the next few years after an outstanding first season.
Best Player - Sami

Despite now being in his thirties Sami had his best season to date with 25 goals and 23 assists.
Best Young Player - Gareth Maher
View attachment 290025
Ive got a soft spot for my youth intake player the only one to make it from the youth intake so far and he can do a job when called upon even when hes seen as a poor player compared to the rest, he still managed a few goals and 14 assists.

Winter Transfer Window
Players In
We only renewed Alan Jackson's loan deal as we dont have the best finances at the moment and i like to do my business in the Summer.
Players Out
McShane and Ward leave on free transfers now well into the thirties they were not needed to take up wages anymore.
Whilst we also lost our first player thanks to the board! Sean Long was signed on a free transfer last year but the board overruled me and let him joined Sunderland for just £235k.

Champions League 1st Knockout rnd
1st Leg - Home
View attachment 290005
McGeady had an outstanding game for us and even though we went ahead twice and they came back twice we still managed to get a late winner.
2nd Leg - Away
View attachment 290004
So were out and we were so unfortunate, Aboubakar is one of the best players in the world now and showed it with a man of the match performance and a late goal that knocked us out.
Feb/March Results
View attachment 290003
So along with Europe we easily went through the All Ireland Quarter Finals with a couple of big wins over St Pat's. In the league we won 3 games but dropped points to Derry City but we did beat rivals Dundalk in the season opener and end the month with a demolition of a lower league team in the Munster Senior Cup.

Summer Transfer Window
Players Out
So along with Jack Doherty leaving early on in the window and losing Griffin i also let squad players McCormack and Canavan leave for nominal fees with them all moving to the Championship.
Players In
So i signed 3 players, the first was Scheel whos Liverpool contract expired and i managed to sign him on a permanent deal after 4 seasons on loan with us.
We then spent £250k on James Few a regen from Arsenal who will slot into the DMC role lovely but i could have got him on a free contract before he decided to sign a new deal with Arsenal and then not get played fall out with them and get put on the transfer list.
The final player is on another level again a former Arsenal youth player he joined Chelsea a few seasons ago but didnt get any game time but hes a real coup for us to sign Roland Stanley.

doing well as always. nice to see you can now nab some decent regens from the bigger clubs and it looks like they are on cheaper wages than the older players despite being better
Thanks man
yes, the regens are definitly on a lot cheaper wages than the real players for instance Cleverly and Stanley are probably the same sort of level but Stanley earns 20k a week less
