I have began a Journeyman career. My reputation is at the automatic setting. I have put on something like 23 Leagues from 13 Nations.
I will accept the first job that is offered to me and begin my career from there. I have done a Journeyman career before but by the time I actually wanted to start writing about it, I was already into my second season.
Anyway, I like to wait until all the jobs at the available at the start of the game are filled before searching for a job. That way, it's likely that the manager was sacked and it will leave me with more of a challenge.
As I am writing this, I am entering August. I will update it further when I finally leave the unemployed category.

Tuesday 2nd September: Stephen Marshall is offered the managerial position at Union Royale Namur of the Belgian Second League.
Only one game into the season, Marshall has arrived at a brilliant time so he is given enough time to make an impact and has nearly a full season for his managerial stylings to come into effect.
I am given a transfer budget of £36,500 and a wage budget of £10k p/w. Not too shabby.
After seeing my media prediction of 19th, I expected the worst when looking at the team. However, I was pleasantly surprised when I saw how highly rated my squad was. Marshall's first aim was to tighten up his backroom staff. He faced a stumbling block however, when his assistant manager, Kurt Jacobs, refused to agree to a mutual termination for anything less than £100k.
Marshall's hopes of improving his backroom staff were once again dashed when he saw that the club already had 4 coaches employed and the board were not allowing another to join the club.
UR Namur today released a statement regarding the future of coach Youssef Palm's future; "UR Namur and Youssef Palm have come to the agreement of a mutual termination of Palm's contract. Palm served the club well in the two months he spent here and we wish him all the best on his future endeavours.
Later that day, Marshall's decision to accept the job at UR Namur was questionned in relation to the fact that Marshall does not speak a word of French. When asked whether this would have a negative effect, he replied;
"I don't have an opinion one way or the other." Before adding; "So know your role and shut your mouth!"
After only one day at the club, Marshall would be thrown straight into the deep end with a Second League match against Olympic Charleroi.
However, in the one day spent at the club, Marshall was very impressed with what he saw. Charleroi as a parent club and a fine team. An impressive transfer and wage budget not to mention the 3,500 capacity stadium.
UR Namur have come to terms on the mutual termination of goalkeeping coach Damien Pierrard's contract. We wish him the best in his future endeavours.
Will update after the months fixtures.

Hold on, I may have just found a fatal flaw in this team. WE HAVE NO CENTRE BACKS!??
