OK, so my first update in 4 years... go easy on me if I'm not up to speed on the latest trends!

Season 08-09 BFC Turkiyemispor - German Regional Division North
Expectation : Fight bravely against relegation
Transfer Budget : 0
Wage Budget : Approx 4.5K
Players In : 2 (0K)
Players Out : 2 (1K)
Season Summary
League : 13th (Survival) P34 W9 D9 L16 F54 A60 GD -6 Pts 36
Cup : No Cups!
High Point : Finishing the first half of the season in 9th place.
Low Point : The one cash signing I make breaking his leg within a week of signing and being out for the rest of the season.
Season in One Word : Anti-Climactic

Season 09-10 BFC Turkiyemispor - German Regional Division North
Transfer Budget : 0
Wage Budget : 3.1K (They cut the budget, despite being delighted with me, and despite giving me a new 2 year contract )
Players In : 2 (0K) + 1 Loan
Players Out : 13 (0K)
Season Summary
League : 13th (Survival) P34 W9 D8 L17 F42 A65 GD -23 Pts 35
Cup : No Cups!
High Point : Finding a youth player who might actually make it in the first team. Slashing the wage bill mercilessly.
Low Point : Having to release so many players in order to balance the books
Season in One Word : Progressless

So on to season 4 - still at Turkiyemispor, not really feeling it, but hopeful that I might have a bit of progress - maybe even finish 8th.

Also, the board just announced a link with FC Metz in France. I feel this is fairly believable, but is it legal? I've already cancelled the link with Hertha Berlin - since German-German arrangements are illegal, but is Non-German - German OK??


It's good to be back!

German teams may be parents to foreign clubs, but not feeders.

LLM in Germany is pure hell. Congratulations on doing as well as you did. :thup:

Wortley

<b>Season 10-11 BFC Turkiyemispor - German Regional Division North</b>
Expectation : Stay Clear of Relegation
Transfer Budget : 0
Wage Budget : 3.8K (I wanted some extra, so said I would "avoid relegation")
Players In : 6 (0K) + 1 Loan
Players Out : 3 (1K)
Season Summary
League : 15th (Relegated) P34 W7 D9 L18 F62 A72 GD -10 Pts 30
Cup : No Cups!
High Point : Loan SC (a Martinique international) scoring 4 goals in a 5-0 rout of the 3rd place team
Low Point : Relegation. It was a poor season to begin with, and had few moments of enjoyment until the last 6 games when I went on a bit of a streak that wasn't enough to claw myself to safety.
Season in One Word : Frustrating

Sacked

To the job-centre I go!

Good work, Wortley. Too bad about the relegation.

Quacky

Its at times like that you wish your team didn't just score 5 goals in 1 game, they won't score for the next 4 games now

BamaToon

Especially after the first season when the German leagues realign. ONE promotion spot and FOUR relegation spots in the Regionalliga. :thdn:

I was refraining until now - but I figured I should join the band wagon... Nobby, how is Mexico doing? Have you seen outstanding players out there? Tila Tequila is an amazing striker, and the two-legged taco is second to none when it comes to goalkeeping, he just wraps around the ball...

Nobby_McDonald

Did you mean to ask that in my update thread Sancho? Do you want a Mexican update doing?
