We are Going Up
My first season is now over and with great relief I can say that I managed to get promoted.
A few times in the second half of the season I did not believe that I would make the top 3 after not being able to get results against teams that I should be beating. Luckily enough I was not getting beaten by I just kept on drawing which is unbelivebaly annoying.

In the end I finished comfortably 2nd but I was wanting to challenge Zaragoza but that never happened. I also never realised that the season finished so late. The first Qualifying round for the UEFA Cup were being played before my last game of the season.

I am having real trouble in find strikers to score goals with Vigurea my top scorer on only 11 goals. Luckily my midfielders were chipping in with most of the goals.

Towards the end of the season I was getting so fed up of Vigurea and de Cerio not scoring I called up Kenan Kodro the 16 year old striker to try and get him some experience and he repayed me by scoring 4 goals and setting up 2 in 11 starts and 3 sub apperances. By no means prolific but when you look at his stats and considering he is only 16 it was fantastic

He is going to be a star for the future. In January I was quite busy in the transfer market in both buying and selling

I also have a defensive midfielder joing in July from Castellon for 675k who is attracting interest from Porto so he should hopfully be a good buy for next year. He gose by the name of Artiz Lopez Garay

Now all I can do is wait and see how much money I will be given to improve the squad and I am looking forward to the challenge of trying to stay up next season

Absolutely brilliant update YNWALFC well done mate. Jacks update was superb and i thought that would take some beating but you have matched it. 2nd is a great achievement i think Zaragoza are obviously just too good. Really looking forward to seeing who you sign in the summer but that Garay bloke looks excellent. KUTGW with the updates and good luck for season 2.Posted 23-11-2008 at 11:10 PM by kovacevic
