Team Name-Grimsby Town F.C.(G.T.F.C) Nickname-The Mariners Team Information Nation-England Year founded-1878 Status-Professional Reputation-Local Chairman Status-Loves The Club Favoured Personnel-Andy Todd,Lawrie McMenemy,Rob Jones Fierce Rivals-Scunthorpe,Lincoln,Hull Other Rivals-Boston Utd,Sheff Wed.,Barnsley Finances-Okay Estimated Value-875k(chairman loan 1mill) Stadium-Blundell Park-Cleethorpes Stadium Capacity-8870 all seater(actually wrong,its more but thats it on fm) Training Facilities-Fairly Basic Training Facilities Youth Facilities-Adaquate youth facilities + Youth Academy Continental Competition-None Media Prediction-14th Squad Average Age-25 Squad Personality-Determined Captain-Justin Whittle Vice-Captain-Paul Bolland Star Players-You should be given a report on Tom Newey when you arrive at the Cheapside Training Grounds, he is a LB who doesnt shy from the tackles and will always be a consistant performer for you,another excellant player is Jamie Clarke,who is a utility player and is ery versatile if you need him to play somewere else,and his stats are hardly something to complain about Rising Stars-Danny North,Andy Taylor,Ryan Bennett,Nick Hegarty,Peter Bore Manager-Alan Buckley Chairman-John Fenty No affiliates but I usually get Newcastle or someone as my parent and North Ferriby as feeder. Your Expectations-Close league everyone could be on 1st or 24th,buy or loan some good players and your cruising,but just work your way up if you wish,The Mariners fans will be happy as long as you dont promise something you cannot achieve,go for Mid Table,were you will get the following Transfer Budget-20k Balance-317.513k Wage Salary-13k Key Players Goalkeepers-Gary Montgomery,Phil Barnes Defenders-Ryan Bennett,Justin Whittle,Nick Fenton,Tom Newey,Jamie Clarke Midfielders-Ciaran Toner,Jamie Clarke,Nick Hegarty,Peter Bore,Paul Bolland,Danny Boshell Strikers-Gary Jones,Danny North,Isaiah Rankin Tactics and Training-If you do do what i say below and sign D'Elia,or any other pacey striker make Jones target man and play balls to his head,then make him have through balls on often and watch as he gives the ball to D'Elia and another ball is in the net Who To Buy-I suggest loading all from a european minnow,i did this with Liechtenstein and Fabio D'Elia wouldnt stop scoring,I also signed Cristoph Biedermann,also any cheap loan/buy will always work. Also Aaron Brown from Reading is a must have. | | | | | 21-02-08, 01:32 PM | #2 (permalink) | | Important First Team Player Join Date: Aug 2007 Location: Dublin :D Posts: 857 Thanks: 32 Thanked 195 Times in 119 Posts Nominated 0 Times in 0 Posts TOTW/F/M Award(s): 0 | nice guide m8 but there's a few things i don't like everything is on top of each other leave a few gaps now and again maybe more info on the players they have and a few screenie of players wouldn't hurt :P u need to get a team logo for grimsby and a few pictures but its good that people are making lower league guides :D | | | | 21-02-08, 01:48 PM | #3 (permalink) | | Important First Team Player Join Date: Feb 2007 Location: Adelaide Posts: 721 Thanks: 54 Thanked 95 Times in 95 Posts Nominated 0 Times in 0 Posts TOTW/F/M Award(s): 0 | yeah i agree i said that to him in the shoutbox, make it a bit more spaced and maybe put in related groups | Cheers Liveru | | | 21-02-08, 02:19 PM | #4 (permalink) | | Backup To The First Team Join Date: Feb 2007 Location: Grimsby Posts: 149 Thanks: 31 Thanked 18 Times in 18 Posts Nominated 0 Times in 0 Posts TOTW/F/M Award(s): 0 | Cheers people i agree,but my frustation as the Town badge kinda screwed up,and it was a quick effort,plus i made the key players but i agree with all the complaints | | | | | 21-02-08, 02:27 PM | #5 (permalink) | | Important First Team Player Join Date: Feb 2007 Location: Adelaide Posts: 721 Thanks: 54 Thanked 95 Times in 95 Posts Nominated 0 Times in 0 Posts TOTW/F/M Award(s): 0 | i would'nt call them complaints mate it woulda taken a while to do this and im sure a few guys will have a look and give grimsby a try.
