London City FC Challenge

The Magik Prat · 08-12-2008, 09:48 PM

Same with mine. My two starting full backs a re regens. they are good enough for this level but I think I need some new ones or they will get murdered in the BSP

YNWALFC · 08-12-2008, 09:51 PM

Both my full backs are regens too. I am looking to get some new ones in just now because I have the same feeling as you and I am also going to try and use the affilate with Bristol City as well

The Magik Prat · 08-12-2008, 09:56 PM

Thats what i did. I loaned in james Wilson. Hasn't started any of my friendly wins yet but he will get his chance. Im seeing how my regens can handle first team duties

YNWALFC · 08-12-2008, 10:01 PM

I loaned him in as well. For some decent players check out the american second division. They say they are not interested but I am waiting to find out if they will change their minds

First friendly 2-0 win against chesterfield Braund and Moore scoring the goals

The Magik Prat · 08-12-2008, 10:12 PM

good one. I can't look at American players because I don't have any other leagues loaded and there all grey

YNWALFC · 08-12-2008, 10:13 PM

I dont have the league loaded either. I only have Scotland and England with no additional players

I am about to attend the england trial days hopefully bag a bargain

The Magik Prat · 08-12-2008, 10:16 PM

useless if you ask me. none of them were any good. Plus none of them wanted to come and all went to the non-playable leagues for me

YNWALFC · 08-12-2008, 10:19 PM

My scouts have said that a few were quality siginings so I am going to try and get them

The Magik Prat · 08-12-2008, 10:23 PM

Fair enough. Well all my pre-season results were good. Draws vs Swindon, Bristol city and Blackpool were backed up with wins over Bury and rhyl. Looking like im going to romp home in the league

YNWALFC · 08-12-2008, 10:26 PM

My friendlies were almost as successful with 3 wins against Chesterfield, Northwich Victoria and Horsham. I drew with Notts County but unfortunatly was beaten by Cowdenbeath and Bristol City but I am confident

The Magik Prat · 08-12-2008, 10:50 PM

Dont set to much by friendlies though. A lot of the time I was playing my first team. So i can count myslef lucky that i remained unbeaten

The Magik Prat · 09-12-2008, 03:57 AM

Hmmm. A good August i feel. i lost the opening game 1-0 to Chelmsford somehow. An own goal. But I haven't conceded since then. And am now top. Unfourtanently Vetra and Braund were away on international duty when I played Newport in the conference cup and thus lost 1-0.

I have also lost 29K. not sure how.

brilcent · 09-12-2008, 03:34 PM

this challenge really looks great, will be giving this a shot shortly after ive finished my sociedad game!

The Magik Prat · 09-12-2008, 07:34 PM

Well done Brilcent. its been good fun so far.
Ecxcept the squad depth is really frustrating. Braund out for 3 months!

The Magik Prat · 09-12-2008, 07:39 PM

Any updates YNWALFC?

Jack F · 09-12-2008, 08:11 PM

The first season should be pretty simple I reckon, Braund is a god send. Godzicz is pretty good, Moore has impressed as well.

The Magik Prat · 09-12-2008, 08:49 PM

The games are pretty simple. Wait till your team gets international call ups and injurys though. Its a lot more challenging than i thought this first season. Im loaning in Jennison Myrie-Williams to add cover for the left wing and striker positions.

I can't seem to win games over 1-0. no matter what tactic I play. Can anyone help.

YNWALFC · 09-12-2008, 09:23 PM

Yeh sorry I havent updated been at work and college

I won my first game 3-0 away to Havant and Waterloo. Braund getting 2 goals and setting up the other. I have managed to get around 5 players in on free transfers their stats look terrible but I have placed faith in my scouts. I am about to play a bit more of the game just now

YNWALFC · 09-12-2008, 10:26 PM

Played 4 won 4. Already 2 points ahead of 2nd and 4 points ahead of 3rd

Jason Braund has been a hero scoring in every match including 2 games where he scored twice which means he has 6 goals in 4 games and I think he has only finished the full 90 minutes once so it wont be long before he gets his first Hat Trick

kovacevic · 09-12-2008, 10:44 PM

International Call ups?? I haven't really looked at this challenge much i have to confess but is the London City team far far to good for that league cos thats the impression i'm getting and it begs the question - Why start them in that league and not a higher one like League 1 or 2? Just seems a bit easy to begin with.
