Hi im from Dundalk in the Rep.Ireland and my dream would be to see my local team in the champions league group stage.
However its very unlikely as we cant get out of the 1st division in the eircom league.Though we are currently second,so maybe this is the year.
Therefore i have to make do with getting european success on FM2007.Not an easy task though.It took me four seasons to get into the premier before i slowly built Dundalk into title contenders.eventually after winning the league i got into the chamions league.after a few years of getting to the third qualifing tie and no further, i achieved the impossible and have done regularly now for a couple of seasons.
After wiining the domestic league for the sixth time in a row i went into the champions league with confidence of doing well.We did narrowly missing out on getting to the knockout stages but at least we finished third and had a crack at the uefa cup.
After seeing off Werder Bremen in the quarters we drew Real in the semi's.well i thought at least we got this far.but my team stunned me and real by winning on aggregate 3-2 to advance to the final at Old Trafford against Arsenal in front of 106500 people expecting to see a comfortable win for the gunners.not so however as we played them off the field winning 3-1 which according to the media could have been a lot more in our favour.So Dundalk F.C became the first ever Irish team to win a european throphy.
If only we could do it in real life.Maybe i should apply to become Dundalk next manager. :)
