Have you finished the sec ond season. if so how did you do in the cups and did you get promoted:D

Finished 13th IIRC (oops! Still, it was an overachievement - was still predicted to go down at start of the season, and I promised board mid-table). Primary problems are that my squad is very young, very inconsistent, very fragile mentally and very small (in the number of players!).

By the last 6 weeks of the season, tiredness was killing me because I was having to rotate heavily and the replacements are poorer quality by a huge margin in comparison to the first team - I went from 1 point off a play-off place to 10 points off a play-off place. This season should see me push for the play-offs if I don't get a job offer more tempting elsewhere (was linked to a lot of League 2 jobs in the summer so there's a chance come Christmas 2010, I may be at a league 2 struggler). I've got 3 quality new first-team signings in already and have high hopes I'll get at least one of two of the potential signings currently being negotiated. If I get all 5, I'll be very disappointed if I don't make the play-offs.

Cup form was 3rd round of the FA Cup, QF of the Setanta shield. Can't remember the other. Of course, the cup runs increased the problems for my small squad which is why I think my league form ended up fading so badly at the end of the season (Aston Villa last season style ;) ).
 
Another good moment for me last night. I was playing against Middlesbrough(I am Newcastle), Steven Defour took a free-kick from just off the half way line, lobbed the keeper and scored. Being a Newcastle fan, this goal was extra sweet, then Vukcevic scored a free kick, and then Cardozo scored a penalty. Then Vukcevic scored a beauty against ManU from 35yards the next game.
 
First game of the season for manchester united against man ******, i was 2-0 down at half time - so i put on tevez he scores twice, so with 10mins left theyr dominating and valencia (city singend him) missed a pen. in the 2nd minute of stopage time i had a corner and vidic scores a header and i go crazy :). so i put on evans to keep it safe at the back and robing runs from the kick off and chips it from 30 yards and over VDS. i was gutted
 
I was playin aresnal and it was 2-2 there was 3mins extra time but they score a last min goal in the 5min of extra when there was only suppose to be 3 ..how is that fair :(

The time held up by the fourth official is the minimum to be added on by the ref. Harsh for you in this case, but it can also work for you too.
 
Ferrnado Torres 25 yards Lob over this crazy keeper against Porto in 90 min mark! WE WON!! I am so glad the lobbing move is so cool!
 
Signing Srna for around £13 million. Offered him a contract, only want £95 a week, with a signing on fee of £1.5 million. Had to increase his weekly wages to give him the signing on fee he wanted
