Unfortunately Raar is right. Checked the Teams and aside from a few players seeing out their last few seasons it's largely re-gens now.
I thought maybe the FIFA World XI and Balon Dor might be a bit better?
Cheers Guys!
Champagne, Caviar and Cigars.
All of it awaits me with the Citizens.
Whilst France revel in their new found status as a dominant force in Europe, I smugly sit back awaiting to take my belongings on the short journey up to Manchester.
A land of super cars, glamorous women and some of the world best players await me.
I'm ready....
...wait.
This isn't how this is supposed to work.
There must be some kind or error. Some kind of simple mistake.
Oh how we'll laugh about this when I take charge...There's no way I'll still be languishing in Barnet at the start of this season.
No way at all...
So It's another season with the Bee's.
Brilliant.
Having essentially fluked my way through to the Championship and surprising even myself with a comfortable debut in one of Europe's toughest Leagues, I wasn't
exactly embracing the prospect of being shown up with what is certain to be a bruising second season in England's second tier.
Guess I best get to work forming a squad capable of holding together my now fragile ego.
First things first, if I'm going to somehow create a reputation capable of actually earning a route to the top, I'm going to need to make some space in the clubs rather limp wage-budget.
With no transfers out of the club, it's simply a matter of releasing Three players very surplus to requirements.
Left back, Gillesphey and backup stopper, Michael Wilson both failed to trouble the first-team during their time with the squad, with Andrew Patterson joining the duo on the footballing scrapyard later in the window.

First arrival of the window see's us make a quick move to add some depth to the flanks of our defence in the shape of Stuart Bowen. The Irish teenager arrives ready made to make some mazey runs down the flanks with his supreme balance and solid all round physical traits. Certainly one for the future.

Once the subject of a Fifty Three million pound transfer to the mighty Gunners, Argentinian winger Cervi arrives in Barnet looking to see out his career back in the capital. Despite being well into his veteran years the winger still possesses all the technical ability to make a huge impact in the season ahead.

Having netted a brace against us when playing for QPR last season, we quickly make the move to bring in Tom Henman to add some depth to our ever reliable strike force. Despite Cameron and Neal both proving to be more then capable of pulling their weight at this level, the added competition should hopefully keep the goals flowing in.
From: Cheltenham
Cost: £250,000
We do eventually tap what little remains of Barnets transfer budget to snap up Jay Boyd. The young stopper has been making waves in the Lower Leagues and with a Quarter of a million pound transfer seeing him make a deserved move to the Championship, he will eagerly be looking to force his way into the number one spot.
That should do.
Rather begrudgingly I repair some holes in the squad and make us ready for the season ahead.
With no chance of being taken lightly this season, it's going to prove a testing one for the Bee's.
I guess I should concentrate on maintaining my
reputation.
Fat lot of good it's done me so far!
