New Season - New Hopes

[* ORM *]

That time again !

Shrimperzone F.C. 58379 - Last season 6th in division VI.285

Tough division but plenty of lessons learnt this season (when to PiC/MoTs, tactics and switched from a 5-4-1 pressing to 5-3-2 sometimes AIM sometimes normal.

Last year had 7 active teams, this year 8 but three of them are complete newbies (including a reset for the team that finished runner up) - one looks like a bot.

Successful training regime now starting to bear fruit and if I get my expected pop next Thursday I'll be able to fund my first ever formidable striker and hopefully still have money to improve ground (18,000 at present). Midfield is mostly young and 1 formidable, two excellents and two reserve solids should be ok though I need to invest again when I get the chance.

Should push 31.5-32 stars most weeks which still won't be good enough for title but should see me fighting for a top 4 spot which is my first target.

I'm convinced I'd romp home in other Div VI series that I've seen.

sounds like reality and fiction blurring into one

Re-building for the future, in a difficult Div V and spent all my money (£1.1 million) on a excellent 17 year old, and am currently selling my 19 yr old brilliant for £1.5 million in order to fund more trainees, will be a long season and if I survive I'll be surprised.

Brought in 3 new young players to build the team numbers up. Will be staying in the same league so one place higher (4th) finsh will do.

Looking to secure at least 5th this year. Have not got the money to bring in new trainees, so the 18yr olds will have to continue. My two main IMs 24 and 22 years of age respectively will still pick up a bit of training, and as both are already at outstanding, training is not a must for us.

Upfront I want to bang in a few more goals than I managed last year, and really my only other aim in the season is to improve my wing-backs a bit.

Rochford's Aim is to Stay up in V.10.
Training PM again now for a good while.
Try to get to round 4 of the cup

Going for the title this season. The team that walked the league last season has been reset so i am now probably the 2nd best side in the division.

Cakewalk for me. Check out VI.753 to see as easy a league as you'll find anywhere!
