When I get back tonight, i'll post the players I signed in the first year. Probably signed 2 or 3, as well a couple of loans throughout the season.
Second year I've signed quite a few more, only really Parkes, White and Balanta get a lot of time for me in L2
Ruthless. I just haven't got it in me to dump off all the current players. Do you ever make it far up the leagues?
Can't say i've ever done an exceptionally long time with Rovers before without making them a sort of cash rich sugar daddy ran team. With that I got them into Europe. This will be the first time I'm doing a long stint with Rovers, my aim is to be there till I'm pushed out the door. The board don't make it easy for you though, reject all of my requests (although it doesn't help that I was over my wage budget quite badly.) and lowered the youth team funding.
For some reason I can't print screen, but first season we won the league. Won 32, Drew 8 and Lost 6. 148 goals for, 74 against. It really was a case of the Mem for entertainment. Lost in the semi final of the F.A Trophy to Braintree who came second in the league (but lost in the playoffs)
Jamie White was top scorer, he got 38 in 44 games. My best performer was Matty Blair on loan from Fleetwood, 26 goals in 33 games and a 7.67 rating.
Signings were: Jude Stirling (RB- Free), Valerie Mezague (CM - Free), Matty Blair (Winger - Loan) Callam Jones (DM - Loan) and Marcos Navas (Winger - Free) although the latter got homesick and wanted to leave half way through the season, which is why I ended up signing Blair, glad I did.
I don't mind clearing out most of the players as I see it as just the game, but it is annoying when you lose some of your real life favorites, Mildenhall seems to decline towards the end of the season so had to get rid of him as wages were too high to keep as a back up. But Parkes, Brown, White and Balanta are still regulars in L2 and Lockyer, Sinclair, Monkhouse and Brunt are in the squad.
