In my defence. It's entirely someone else's fault! Thanks for the support as always Patrick!

With a rather suspect board looking on, we take to the field and show them exactly what I've got to offer...
absolutely nothing. A horror show of a performance see's the team collapse without so much as a whimper with the home side running riot from the first to last whistle of the game. Only thing that could make this worse is a couple of injured strikers to join Bojaj on the sidelines...
Despite now being reduced to just Jack Parkinson upfront, the board rather predictably wasted little time in dragging me back into the board room to explain our recent collapse.
It's non-stop fun at the bottom of the footballing ladder.

With the board setting me a lofty ten point target in the next five games we get off to a thankfully quick start with a convincing victory over Weston-Super-Mare. Despite being reduced to just Jack Parkinson upfront, a makeshift formation saw us make the most of our talented team to pick up a much needed three points.

The arrival of Greenidge in the transfer window see's us return to the attacking 4-2-4 formation and the on-loan teenager marks his debut with a goal to seal my nerves , securing our second much-needed victory in a row. With my back against the wall, I can only hope that the Wycombe United striker can save my career.

Parkinson and the instant-impact of Greenidge appear to be combining well thus far as the duo once again both manage to find the back of the net to secure a hard-earned point against a Maidenhead side desperately trying to restore some pride following their recent relegation. Thee games down, Three points remaining.

FA Trophy - 2nd Rnd
Before I can get to work trying to salvage what little remains of my flagging career, there's the small matter of the FA Trophy. With the early days of my career very much proving to be hard-going some non-league silverware could give me a much needed boost. Unfortunately Harrogate were not in a generous mood forcing a replay after a sluggish goal-less draw.

FA Trophy - 2nd Rnd Replay
Well there goes any hope of picking up a cup victory for my shabby looking CV. As potentially the only reliable person in the entirety of Welling, Jack Parkinson once again finds the back of the net with a goal just seconds after the opening whistle but a dominant second half for the Yorkshire club saw us spiral out of the competition. Once again an unfortunate injury adds to a miserable month...

Well this is worrying. Having been unbeaten since my dressing down at the hands of both Gloucester and the Board, we finally come unstuck against a previously struggling Braintree. Having gone into the game fully expecting to hit my target with a game to spare, the sloppy defeat now leaves me just one game away from another early dismissal.

Well it's not exactly looking rosie in Welling. With my career potentially just one game away from another completely disastrous sacking, the club now sits dumped out of the playoff spots with the season now drawing towards a finale that is shaping up to be incredibly tense. Hopefully I'll still be in charge to find out.
