Decided to get back into LLM. Gone for a team I have never tried with before. The media are predicting a 20th placed finish in the BBS. Transfer money is zilch and wage budget is very tight. Im trying to free up some extra money for wages by getting high earners to take big pay cuts in exchange for signing on fees. So far I have mainly strengthened the defence and signed:

Cian Hughton (free)
Aaron Morris (loan - Cardiff)
Stephen Caffrey (free)
David Fairclough (free)
John O'Hara (free)

I have just played the matches to the end of August and we have had a excellent start to the season playing a 4-1-3-2 formation. Results were

Weston Super Mare 1-0 Northwich (Wells)
Worcester 1-2 Weston Super Mare (Mullings, Caffrey)
Weston Super Mare 3-2 Bromley (Brown, Mullings)
Lewes 1-2 Weston Super Mare (Partridge, Wells)
Weston Super Mare 0-1 Eastleigh
 
Seems promising. Good set of results. I used them before, got to Coca Cola League 1 and then FM09 was released, so they, along with FM 08, got forgotten about. I'll keep an eye on this one, best of luck
 
September:
Two more arrivals and 1 departure have brought an end to my spending, possibly for the season unless finances improve. Attacking midfielder Alan Kirby and striker David Hutton have both joined on free transfers, while James Palmer left to join Barry. After a shaky start to the month which saw the us crash out of the Setanta Shield at the first hurdle, results picked up.

Weston Super Mare 1-2 Northwich (Kirby) - Setanta Shield
Bishop Stortford 1-2 Weston Super Mare (Mullings, Hutton) - League
Dorchester 1-4 Weston Super Mare (Brown, Caffrey, Kirby, Morris) - League
Weston Super Mare 3-1 Thurrock (Hutton (2), Caffrey) - League
Weston Super Mare 1-0 Dover (Mullings) FA Cup 2nd Q Round

In other news:
Weston Super Mare will play either Chippenham or Dartford in the next round of the FA Cup.

And finally:
The race is on to become the clubs all time top goal scorer. With Stuart Slaters all time record being just 15, chances are it will be broken before the end of the season. Currently leading the race are Mullings and Hutton with 4 goals apiece this season.

October:
Weston Super Mare fans could not have asked for any more from the team this month. Played 6, Won 6! The great run has seen them open up a 7 point lead at the top of the table. Results were:

Bognor Regis 1-2 Weston Super Mare (Mullings (2)) - League
Chippenham 0-1 Weston Super Mare (Caffrey) - FA Cup 3rd Q Round
Weston Super Mare 3-0 Hampton & Richmond (Tanner O.G, Mullings, Caffrey) - League
Maidenhead 0-1 Weston Super Mare (Hutton) - League
Chipstead 0-2 Weston Super Mare (Brown (2)) - FA Cup 4th Q Round
Weston Super Mare 2-0 Welling (Hutton, Comyn-Platt) - League

The club have an excellent chance to progress into the 2nd round of the FA Cup after being drawn against minnows Oxford City in the first round.

January:

I nearly cried during the game with Bromley. Was 1-0 down and was down to 9 men when I grabbed an equaliser. I then could not believe it when I had a third man sent off with 10 minutes to go, but thought I had pulled off a unbelievable result, when, 3 minutes into stoppage time Bromley steal a winner. I was heart broken!! lol

Havant & Waterlooville 1-1 Weston Super Mare (Kirby) - League
Northwich Victoria 0-2 Weston Super Mare (Hutton, Holgate) - League
Weston Super Mare 0-2 Worcester - League
Bromley 2-1 Weston Super Mare (Morris) - League
Eastleigh 0-1 Weston Super Mare (Brown) - League

February:

Been a tough month. As with most of the games i have played, once I get to the business end of the season my teams form just nose dives.

Weston Super Mare 0-0 Lewes - League
Weston Super Mare 0-2 Bishop Stortford - League
Bath 1-0 Weston Super Mare - League
Weston Super Mare 1-1 Dorchester (Brown) - League
Thurrock 1-2 Weston Super Mare (Kirby, Hutton) - League

Despite the poor run of form, I still sit top of the table, 2 points clear of second place Thurrock, and 3 points clear of 3rd place Chelmsford
 
Weston Super Mare lose play-off final

After their second place finish in the Conference South, Weston Super Mare made it through to the play off final with a thumping 6-0 aggregate victory of Bromley. Sadly the club narrowly missed out on a place in the Blue Square Premier, losing 1-0 to Chelmsford, who won it with a goal in the second half of extra time, after the game finished 0-0 at 90 minutes.
 
Weston Super Mare announce the signing of Geoff Horsfield on a 1 year contract
 
Weston Super Mare fail to win promotion from the play-offs for second season in a row. After losing the final last season, Super-Mare lost 3-2 on aggregate in the semi finals to Bath City and will face a 3rd season in BSS
 
Breaking News:

After a long on-off deal, the proposed takeover of Weston Super Mare has collapsed. It has been confirmed however that chairman Paul Bliss is looking to stand aside at the earliest opportunity.
