To be honest, I've brought in all the players I want for the new season.....(Third season, 2 successive promotions, Chesterfield now in the Championship...

).....But I have gone a touch over my budget (45k with a 42.2k budget).



I just wondered would my chairman start demanding I shed some players (or else....).

Wouldn't have thought so, you're only £3k over.



Unless the club is in the deep brown stuff financially you should be safe from that.



Kick some of your reserve players out on loan with a recall clause if you want to save yourself some wages.

He'll want something in return though!

Is anyone finding there are a lot of injuries on the latest patch? I've started a new game as Everton and after fielding a decent lineup in the first game I am now left with a Saints-esque injury crisis. Cahill played 3 minutes of the first game and broke his leg and by the 3rd game I was down 12 first team players.



Bidwell, Duffy, Vellios, Craig, Wallace, Kinsella and Mustafi have all played in the Premier League so far, Vellios and Wallace have been regulars for about 15 games now. I'm in 15th and don't have a senior striker or midfielder fit bar Rodwell. When I do get some back the likes of Beckford and Felliani disappear on international duty.

Not really noticed that many injuries you must be just unlucky. However I did buy Simon KJaer from Wolfsburg, had him for 3 days and he was then out for 11 months with a viral infection.

Anyone got any recommendations for a cheap striker to play in Scotting First Divison? just heading into my second season with Dundee and need a striker because Leigh Griffiths is wanting out, not had any offers yet but he wants to leave and he's out of contract after this season so could do with a replacement coming in soon.

Adam Le Fondre (sp) from Rotherham is a good player for that sort of level.

Get Tonton Zola Moukoko in, he'll sort it!

LMAO. Legend.

In my first game of 2011 I took Crewe from the bottom to the Prem, left them a decent squad and a shed load of pennies. Then I left for Sunderland, took me a few years, various Champions league qualifications and and FA cup win and finally had an awesome squad and the game frickin crash dumped. Was devastated.

Approaching the end of my second season at Neath in the Welsh League, a job I took purely on the basis it means I get to manage Lee Trundle





Won the league and FA Cup double in my first season, clinched the league with four games to go this season and in the final of both cups so a possible treble is on the cards.



Team's mostly made up of players from English non-league clubs and kids who have been let go by big clubs in England and Scotland. Playing 4-3-3 with Trundle as playmaker in the middle of the front three and pace either side of him.



Got Blackpool as my parent club, but they've been sod all use in terms of sending me players. Might have to look at changing it in the off-season.

I must say my current game is remarkably close to real life. Top 7 is the same and bottom 7 is the same with 30 games gone as the league finished this season. After a truly awful start with loads of injuries I have recovered to 7th with Everton. I've got no money still but have got several quality young players in now.



Top scorers are Beckford and Vellios with 10.
