Stinkenzo Posted 17 September 2008 Share Posted 17 September 2008 Cant seem to post an image of my Crewe team so here's a linkSold Carl Fletcher and Michael O'Connor towards the end of last season (1m each) and signed SEB, B Gunnarsson, Alex Pearce and some random U19 Ireland international. This is my 3rd season in the Championship with Crewe, my first games have all been at home to Reading, Blackburn and now Derby. In them games i've conceded one goal in each, coming in the 91st, 87th and 92nd minute. Selling Carl (I get booked every 1.something games) Fletcher made me think the team discipline would have gone down. But against Derby I had 7 YC's and a Red. Some things never change. Alan Maybury 2 red cards in 2 games. and conceded the decisive goal in the 92nd min to WBA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DB11 Posted 17 September 2008 Share Posted 17 September 2008 Does it get easier for your team if someone was sent off for the opposing team? Yes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeeCovFox Posted 17 September 2008 Share Posted 17 September 2008 Well I got the Leicester job after Alan Smith came under some pressure, and have taken them from 21st in the Championship in early October to 3rd at Christmas, with an 8-0 drubbing of Forest along the way. Marvellous. To win some trophies with City would cap my most successful career ever on either Championship or Football Manager. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Asha Posted 17 September 2008 Share Posted 17 September 2008 Yes Debatable. I tend to find that their determination increases and they perform better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I'd agree, the amount of nil-all draws I get when the other team have someone sent off is unreal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FilboFox Posted 19 September 2008 Author Share Posted 19 September 2008 ****ing Leeds... I HATE them! They ruined my start to the season by beating me 2-0 at their place in the League Cup 1st Round... VERY annoyed as my players just capitulated against them despite having won our pre-season friendlies easily and won 5-2 against Oldham in the opening game...

Mikey Posted 22 September 2008 Share Posted 22 September 2008 Finished my first season with Man City. Premiership: 5th FA Cup: Semi-Final Carling Cup: Quarter-Final Uefa Cup: Quarter Final Finished 5th. Had 9 points deducted for going into administraton because the person who had edited it had only edited the Budger and not the Balance. Still would have come 5th, but a couple of points away from 4th and not fighting with Newcastle on the last day of the season for 5th. In Emile Heskey 8.75m Igor Akinfeev 20m Anatoily Tymoschuk 13m Rodrigo Palacio 10m Naldo 6.75m Vagner Love 7.5m Francisco Merida 3.2m Klaas-Jan Huntelaar 13.5m Out Benjani 3.5m - Wigan Kelvin Ethuhu 2.5m - Ipswich Darius Vassell 1m - Fulham Premiership Robinho started off getting a goal 3 minutes into his Premiership debut against Wigan, but then Benjani and Arshavin scored 2 in 2 minutes for them so after 8 minutes it was 2-1 to Wigan. I needn't have worried as goals from Kompany in the 10th minute, Robinho again and Michael Johnson (last minute) started me off with a 4-2 win. I then went on to lose 3-0 to Chelsea, beat West Brom 1-0 (Elano, ended up as goal of the season) and then lose 2-1 away to Spurs. I was thinking at this time I wouldn't be good enough for the big teams, but then I went on a unbeaten run of 9 games. The most memorable games were drawing 2-2 with United and coming from 3-1 down to draw with Liverpool, also a high-scoring game against Stoke, 5-2, where Elano (2), Palacio, Naldo and Heskey got the goals. It came to an end when I lost to Villa 2-1 at home and then I lost again, this time 5-1 to Arsenal. Around this time I went bankrupt and could no longer make transfers, so I couldn't do anything in January. I carried on getting steady results and a couple of losses, 3-1 to Newcastle and 4-0 to Everton. And then I beat Chelsea 3-1, Palacio got an early goal, but Pandev equalised then 2 last minute goals from Huntelaar and Richards sealed a memorable victory. From there I won 6 in a row, but it came to an abrupt end losing 4-1 to Man United. I then got another draw with Liverpool, 3-3, and a 4-1 win against Fulham. Then I got my best result of the campaign beating Arsenal 3-0, goals from Palacio, SWP and Robinho. This got me within 2 points of Newcastle. I drew with Villa and then beat Boro to go 1 poin of Newcastle. Then I played Newcastle themselves and beat them 4-2, goals from Huntelaar (2), Robinho and SWP. On the one from last game I lost to Pompey 2-1 whereas Newcastle won 4-0, so I was behind them again. But Everton beat Newcastle 3-1 on the last day of the season, whereas I beat Sunderland 3-0 goals from Petrov, Robinho and Vagner Love. Carling Cup Round 3: Barnsley. 3-1 Win. I put out a strong team for this one and won it comfortably, 2 from Palacio and one from Love, whereas Iain Hume scored for Barnsley. Round 4: Middlesborough, 2-1, Win. Another good performance, with Huntelaar grabbing both goals. Quarter Final: I wanted to go further than this but sadly I drew Man United. I put u[ a good fight but lost 2-1. Richard Dunne for me and Scholes and Carrick for them. FA Cup Round 3: Started off with a tough Home draw against Newcastle but scraped a 1-0 win, Huntelaar coming off the bench to score. Round 4: Easier draw this time, won 2-0 against Swansea, this time SWP getting a goal along with Huntelaar. Round 5: Another Championship side, this time Ipswich. They put up a good fight but 2 goals from Huntelaar and one from Petrov was enough to see them off, Haynes scored for them, 3-1. Round 6: Beat West Ham, 2-1. Annihalated them but could only score 2, one from Vagner Love and the other from Jo. Semi-Final: My hardest game, Arsenal, but was my first trip to Wembley. I couldn't match them, they were too good. I lost 3-1 , Eduardo (2) and Bendtner and Palacio for me. Uefa Cup In the Euro Vase I had to beat Germinal Beerscot, I only just won, 4-3 on aggregate. 3 goals from Jo and 1 from Robinho over the 2 matches. Then in the Uefa Cup Qualifying Round 2, I put 9 past FC Haka with them scoring none, over the 2 games. In the Uefa Cup proper first round I beat OB 5-0 at Eastlands, but only drew 2-2 away. finishing 7-2 on agg. In the group I started off with a 1-1 draw with Galatasaray, Huntelaar scoring for me. Then beat B.Jerusalem, 5-2, with goals from Palacio (4) and Huntelaar. Then I beat Olympiakos 3-1, Petrov, SWP and Elano scoring, then finished my group games with a good win against Benfica, 2-1, goals from Petrov and Jo. Then I got a hard draw against Deportivo and I was fearing after a 1-0 away loss. But I needn't have worried as 2 goals from Robinho and 1 from Huntelaar got me a 3-0 Home win. Then I got what should have been a comfortable draw, against Spartak Moscow. I won a unconvincing 3-2 win at Home, Palacio scoring and Huntelaar 1, with Welliton getting 2 for them. Then away I lost 3-2, Tymoschuk and Vagner Love for me, but the impressive Welliton got 3. In the Penalties, Huntelaar, Jo, Petrov and Naldo scored but Tymoschuk missed but I got the win. Then came my knockout round, against Liverpool, albeit on the harsh away goals rule. I lost 1-0 at Anfield, but won 2-1 at Home, but it was just not enough, goals coming from Huntelaar (2). So no trophies for me this season. But have edited it so I am not Bankrupt anymore and have a slighly above average budget and balance due to me being Man City. Huntelaar and Palacio got 30 goals each, Elano 14, Jo and Robinho 12 and Vagner Love 11. Heskey got a measly 2. Looking forward to the new season. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Oh dear. Didn't realise how long that was. I have way too much time on my hands. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
