Managers Comments

I have decided to look at the team and i have made lots of changes to it as you will be able to see in the next post or so.

I have a great feeling about this save it may not be as good as others but i feel i will be able to win the league but defensively i feel i will struggle unless i can get someone in to help.

I hope you will enjoy this new save and hopefully i don't have any problems at all.

Assistant Report

Wright is very pleased with the amount of depth to the squad and feels we can be confident that the players we have are capable of achieving what is required of them.

Despite possessing a strong team, Wright feels that our weakest area of our squad is up front.

Crawford believes you may want to consider these players as a potential solution to the problem striker area:

Pavol Suhaj (27 year old Slovakian striker who is valued at £0)
Raphael Nade (28 year old Ivorian attacking midfielder, forward who is valued at £0)
Guy Madjo (24 year old Cameroonian striker who is valued at £0)

He also believes that the following are the best:

Senior Players

Jim Ablancourt - Defender
Pascal Bedrossian - Midfielder
Gael Hiroux - Attacker

Youth Players

Aaron Beech - Defender
Hamze Ismail - Midfielder
Izet Zahirovic - Attacker

Managers Comments

Well i am don't agree in the are he say's we're weak at as i feel it is the defence we need to improve on due to lack of defenders and my strike force is strong and i am hopeful that this will be seen in the new season.

Promotion Odds

Blue Square North promotion odds from Sky Bet

AFC Telford and Southport have been made 5-4 joint favourites to ggain promotion from the Blue Square North this season.

The rest of the main contenders are priced at: 6-4 - Stalybridge, 3-1 - Harrogate, 5-1 Droylsden and 6-1 - Stafford.

By pricing your team at 2000-1 the bookmakers clearly think that relegation is a real possibility and that you should be gearing up for a long, hard and ultimately disappointing season.

This has been a very busy pre-season i have done a massive clear out and brought in a new team which i feel will be the team to beat in the season. the players are so good i was over the moon to have managed to bring them in.

[Racewinner]

Good luck with Vauxhall Motors.

[The Gunners]

Good luck with your new team, I am sure you will do well and hopefully you won't have to start again this time.

[mufckingud7]

I have the game saved on 2 hard drives 1 copy then a backup and also the 3 rolling saves too so i have a v02/3 so i feel i will be safe

This was an easy game but the scoreline doesn't show, we managed to get 29 shots in but not all of them had been on target. I am hoping we can keep this up.
