SaintMotbot's Premier League Chairman Game

Znik said:
I'd say having the transfer window over a weekend is a good thing. So for me, if the window starts tomorrow, that's brilliant.

As for another update already, I really love getting updates, but maybe leave it until tonight / tomorrow morning to let people catch up a bit?

The problem is I'm not gunna be on much over the next few days, so I thought I could get the last sim over and done with and then let the transfer window run until sunday/monday until im back.. but if people want me to hold off then thats fine!

Well if the alternative is no updates at all during the weekend, I'd say you do the update before leaving, so that the transfer window can run while you're away. I'm sure Arsene can't **** up any more during December, lewie!??! :P

New owner for Swansea
31th April 2016

Swansea City has been taken over by Wolter Kroes. For people who aren’t Dutch: Wolter Kroes is a singer from the beautiful county: The Netherlands. He is mostly known for his songs: Ik heb de hele nacht liggen dromen and the number 1 song: Viva Hollandia. His song Viva Hollandia inspired him for buying Swansea City. His dream? Make it a club with only Dutch players!
In 1981, the club were promoted to the original Football League First Division. It was during the following season they came close to winning the league title, but a decline then set near the season's end before finishing sixth, although a club record. It was from here the club suffered a relegation the season after, returning to the Football League Fourth Division a few seasons later, then narrowly avoided relegation to the Football Conference in 2003. The Swansea City Supporters Society Ltd owns 20% of the club, with their involvement hailed by Supporters Direct as "the most high profile example of the involvement of a supporters' trust in the direct running of a club". The club's subsequent climb from the fourth division of English football to the top division is chronicled in the 2014 film, Jack to a King – The Swansea Story.
In 2011, Swansea were promoted to the Premier League, becoming the first Welsh team to play in it since its formation in 1992. On 24 February 2013, Swansea beat Bradford City 5–0 to win the 2012–13 Football League Cup (the competition's highest ever winning margin for the final), winning the first major trophy in the club's history and qualifying for the 2013–14 UEFA Europa League, where they reached the Last 32 stage but lost over two legs to SSC Napoli this season they are struggling in the Barclays Premier league with only 8 points out of the possible 42 and they are sitting in the 20th position. They didn’t even record a win this season!
The first act of Wolter Kroes as Chairman is the sacking of current interim Manager Steve Clark and the hiring of Dutch manager and Arsenal legend: Giovanni van Bronckhorst. He also hires Wim Jonk as the Head of Youth Department, what leads of the sacking of Dave Parnaby.
The Swansea fanbase reacted positively to the new owner and they will see what the future brings to them.

This season is getting stranger and stranger as once again the teams at the top seem determined to throw it away. Norwich hold United and Swansea hold Liverpool, while Watford lose to Everton, Southampton lose out to City. Leicester are the big winners, taking a precious win over Stoke.

A better week for our top sides, as United win a crunch game against Leicester, Arsenal beat Tottenham in a similarly important game and Liverpool grind out a win over Norwich.

I'm just going to stop trying to predict any of these results! A previously poor Stoke side suddenly pull out a performance to beat leaders Liverpool, but United cant take advantage as they drop points to Palace. Arsenal pull out a priceless win against Watford as they make it three wins on the bounce to surge back into contention, while Southampton draw yet again to Newcastle. Wins as well for Leicester, Spurs and Chelsea as they continue to climb the table but City are held by Everton

Its boxing day! and also the halfway point of our season! Arsenal make it four on the bounce by edging past Bournemouth which means they gain ground because United got thumped at home by Stoke! Liverpool go four points clear at the top thanks to a priceless win against Leicester, and Watford further cement their champions league placing by beating Newcastle. Saints return to some form by comfortable beating Villa while Norwich get a 2nd win in a row.

Five in a row for Arsenal! and all of a sudden they are just a single point off the lead! Liverpool lose to Stoke who make it three in a row, while it is United's turn for a mini crisis as they only draw with Palace. Southampton capitalise on plenty of dropped points by beating Newcastle, while City and Norwich both pick up wins to keep their impressive form up. Guess what, yes! another draw for Swansea! who hold Tottenham.

What a season it has been so far. Liverpool lead the way, followed closely by Arsenal, who were 9th just a month ago. Southampton lead the mini-battle between them, Leicester and Watford, while United have dropped out of the top four and are now just a single point ahead of City. Even Chelsea who have been under-performing are only two wins off of Champions league football. Stoke and Norwich have now pulled comfortably into mid-table and Swansea are off the bottom with their remarkable 12 draws!

League Cup​

All four English teams qualify from the Champions League! Arsenal recover to top their group, as do United and City. Chelsea finish 2nd behind Roma.

View attachment 163397
Some really tough draws for our sides in the knockout rounds, with Chelsea having to face Bayern, Arsenal being draw against Barcelona, Man City facing off against PSG and United with the easiest draw will face Wolfsburg.

Europa League​

West Ham can only draw with Dnipro which means they dont make the cut, but Tottenham and Liverpool both complete the groups with perfect records, and Southampton comfortably make the cut.

View attachment 163393
An excellent draw for Liverpool as they face Brugge, while Tottenham and Southampton have tough draws, facing Sporting and Fiorentina respectively.

(I know a lot of clubs are in debt, pretty much every club!! however, I think.. most clubs have got tv rights money and sponsorship deals coming in, so you should all be fine!)

(Also, Swansea! Your manager change HAS happened, just not on this save file, so dont worry, its been done)
 
PM me about any Liverpool players and all that. Don't have a set transfer list, but I'm willing to listen offers :)
