May 2018

First off we face former rivals Finn Harps! They were such a thorn in my side for the first two seasons of my career especially when they won the First Division

View attachment 471916

As you can see they have a better head to head, there a bit of a blast from the past after getting relegated from the Premier Division after one season i havent seen them in 5 years.

View attachment 471913

That will help the head to head . . . .

May Fixtures

View attachment 471911

Only the one loss in the league this month as we win in two cup competitions to progress through to the next rounds and keep a few clean sheets along the way.

June 2018

We move up a massive 192 places in the European Team Rankings

View attachment 471850

I feel as if we are really starting to get up there with some of the also rans of the Champions League Group stages! Another good month in Europe and we will make the top 100 teams next year

We get drawn against Sant Julia again, poor them

June Fixtures

View attachment 471847

We won our only competitive game of the month but it seems silly to have almost a month off right before 2 of the busiest months of the season, why we couldn't play a few league games in here as if we do well in Europe we will end up being 5 or 6 games in hand in the league by September.

Right up next July Transfer Window​
 
Still loving the story mate! You've kept building the club which is great. I've decided to start my own story in the Irish League with Longford! Hopefully i can get to your dizzy heights :P (btw Limerick won the 1st division in my 1st season)

July 2018 - Summer Transfer Window

A few players left on free transfers including Asante, Knox, McGeehan and Crossan left for 5k, all of them were hurting squad harmony because they were not playing enough.

So i brought 2 players in both play in the CM role

Gary O'Neill CM

View attachment 471603

Glenn Whelan CM

View attachment 471602

At 34 years old Whelan can still do a job and will take over from Jay Tabb who has nosedived in the last 6 months.

Both of these signings were more important than i expected as not long later Thomas Agyiri got refused a new work permit for his expiring contract!

Add to that Leto Colombo gets injured for 4 months!

Sant Julia - Home

View attachment 471598

We destroy them at home and should have scored more! To have 30 shots on goal and 15 on target showed our dominance.

Only put 4 past them this time but kept a clean sheet winning the tie 9-1 on aggregate.

Champions League 3rd Qualifying rnd Draw

Champions League Playoffs Draw

They are previous winners of the Champions League in a previous life (1991) but should actually be less of a challenge than Anderlecht were, we will still have to be on our game though​

The squad as a whole is really feeling the fatigue now as we let go off 4 points in the last 3 league matches with sloppy late goals.

So that was another Double Achieved
