Everton FC
"Nil Satis Optimum"
By Lewis Devlin

​
Hey guys I'm Lewis and this is my Everton FC story... Hope you enjoy it and feedback is much appreciated, August update follows shortly...

June 31st 2012, The English FA released a statement which stated the following
​

"Due to Roy Hodgson's surprising heart attack recently, the FA have announced that
Everton Manager, David Moyes has been appointed England manager, indefinitely.
We wish Roy a very speedy recovery and our thoughts are with him and his family."

​
June 31st 2012, Shortly after this, Everton FC released a statement which read
​

​
"As some of you may know, England manager Roy Hodgson, suffered a heart attack a few days ago. As a result, the FA have appointed our manager David Moyes as care taker manager of The England National Team, in their attempts to qualify for the 2014 FIFA World Cup in Brazil. As this is the case, we have decided to relieve David of his duties as Manager of Everton, to pursue his duties as Caretaker Manager of England, at this time we have no more information.
We are very grateful for all he (David) has done for our club and we wish him all the best in this new step in his Managerial Career."

​
July 1st 2012, Statement from EvertonFC.com.

​
"We are very happy to reveal our new manager of Everton FC following David Moyes' reign here for over 10 years. Our new manager is Moyes' fellow Scotsman and Everton First Team Coach, Lewis Devlin, who has had a glittering playing career with spells with teams such as Celtic FC, Everton and The Scottish National Team, at this time we have no more information and we wish Lewis all the best in his position as Manager of Everton FC" ​

This might be just my personal taste,but I find it easier to see screenshots.
 
Probably match results, transfer history each season, maybe a league position once a month.
 
Okay thanks, I'll try that in the next update, just going through January 2013 so there will be transfer updates
 
I'd like to read about the Scotland side of events. You might want to sign a couple of young Scottish players who you then raise to be superstars at clip and international level;) Good luck
 
Thanks, haha I didn't think anyone cared about Scotland haha! I'll put in a Scotland update after the January update :)
 
Also, would be nice to see a screen with detailed team instructions. Also,I'm not sure if this was taking into account injury time or not,but in the december update you say you kept the lead for 70 minutes after scoring at 30,which sums up to 100,not 90.
 
Keeping the lead for 70 minutes was a mistake...that's my good maths skills coming into action there, the game was 90 minutes not 100 so we kept the lead for 60 not 70...sorry, my bad
 
Problem guys...I came off this and went on fm13, I went to go to play a match and then I got a crash dump as I was viewing the squads, so I deleted my fm13 folder inside the sports interactive folder, so now I have no saved game for Everton and Scotland, what I'm gonna do is start a new game, but try and make it as realistic to the old save as possible by using the updates in this thread, sorry guys, I'll start a new thread once the new game is set up and I have finished the first update, I'll also add screenshots and pictures for Player of the month etc. again my apologies, sorry for the inconvenience caused, I hate crash dumps!
 
Ah don't worry,probably better anyway. Just a piece of advice,DO NOT sell gueye for some trinkets like 3M. I've seen most people do so and it is a huge mistake. I sold him after two seasons for 22 M.Also Coleman can usually become a nice piece of business.
 
Haha, I won't sell them, I think I sold Gueye in the last game but I kept Coleman at right back and sold Hibbert and Heitinga, thanks for the help mate!
