Managed to leap ahead of the Whippingboys. One match to go where everything will be decided. Unlucky with the injury.

Well it is hard not to be estatic.

The Trains finished the season with a 26 game unbeaten streak. Last loss was 1 - 0 away to MC United on the 12th February.

Last 8 games were 8 consectutive clean sheets, and we finished 11 points clear at the top of the table:

nice work,

i managed a satisfactory, proftable 6th....the profitable part is key, for the last two seasons I've been totally broke! after reducing my youth academy I've managed to break even each week finishing the season in a good spot with cash in hand.

Queenslander 3x a year.

Managed to steal the top spot so now I'm back up into the Championship

17 Apr 08:55

Started the season well but had a bad patch at the end meaning I finish lower than I would of liked. Need to fix my defense

Finished one spot outside relegation playoffs, longterm team development plan coming along nicely

A lowly 7th place for Onehunga AFC in Kiwi 1.13 after finishing in the P/O spots last season.  I pretty much neglected my team for the first few rounds, an aging squad with only 1 addition!  Although, I've upgraded my Youth system to level 6 and beefed up the stadium.  That's still the long term plan - to build up a good youth system.


Bring on next season!

COYN!  Beijing, China.

Into the playoffs, ironically against the team who ruined my chances of getting up (and injured my best defender....). Chance for revenge tonight.

18 Apr 09:59

What a game, come into it realising that for some awful reason my DR isn't playing, and in his place is a 1.5 star MC, who proceeds to leak two goals, down 2-1 at the half. In the second half, he gets injured, on strolls an actual right back who straight away gets an assists, before we notch the winner later, a 3-2 win! One game away from promotion.....

18 Apr 11:26

Nice work N-Bomb, good luck for the next game.  Made it to the playoffs as well but got beat 2-1 in the first round.  Arguably played better than them but conceded the winner in the 89th min.  Going to have to sort out my lack of decent strikers situation this coming season.

19 Apr 05:27

One game for promotion, and it's against Hastings Football Club - a team I've played 8 times, winning three. 

In the matches between the two teams, there has never been more than 2 goals scored, and the last four games have all ended 1-0. In the eight games, there has been no games in which both teams scored, one team always ends with a 0.

So, what I'm saying is... 1st goal wins! I'll be without my game-winning ML and best centre back, so luck may need to be on my side....


20 Apr 08:13

This is madness, after never having a game which ended anything other than 1-0, 0-0 or 2-0, it's currently 3-3, three times I've fallen behind only to level things up again, will Hastings score again to make it 4-3....

20 Apr 10:33

How'd you end up? 

Pretty sure I had a triple relegation...haha


Allegedly

Lost 5-3.... Another year slaving away in Div Three for me

Another win for me tonight. Have a habit of starting the season well. Did get a player sent off though at 5-1 off. That irked me

YES!! Unbeaten after two games, 3 goals scored, 3 goals conceded...why am I 13th? OH!

27 Apr 04:37 · edited 28 Apr 06:58 · History

The Trains started with a 2 - 0 win, and morale was high. Then in game two there were 3 injuries to three star players. Two 1 week niggles but also an 8 week injury to Luke Green our star OFL and free kick specialist. That's really gonna hurt. I have never had three injuries in a game before...

A 1-0 win for Fafe and we move up to 7th in the table, still unbeaten 1-2-0. :D

28 Apr 08:41

A 3-3 draw last night against another contender for the playoffs and into the negative for the first time. Next home game should bring us well clear

A 92nd minute strike by Dudanec gives the Trains a hard fought 2 - 3 away win.

Meanwhile, The Chickens and TTU drew 2 - 2.

1 - 0 away win over Sanchez keeps us top of the table, heading the Whips on goal difference.

My Nepalese team had a pretty awesome win. Went 1 - 0 up midway through the first. The first play of the second half was a DC picking up his second yellow, and they equalised soon after. Cue conceding two penalties in the 59th and 73rd minutes. For some reason, their designated penalty taker was a low routine and decidedly average finisher of an OMR rather than their striker. The muppet put the first one well wide of the upright, and didn't adjust the radar enough as he crashed the second against the upright. We then hit them on the counter in the 77th for a 2 - 1 away win.

Needless to say, that OMR had a match rating way lower than anybody else on the pitch, including my guy who got sent...
