Default FMF Save Game V2

FMF Save Game V2 Queens Park Rangers


Due to the fact that the first FMF save game file got corrupted i decided to offer my QPR save file to start a new FMF save game (v2)

Season Expectations
Top Half finish is wot i told my board and for this i got 17.5m to spend in the transfer market

Feeder Club
I got offered either MK Dons,Grays or Stevenage as feeder clubs, i decided on MK dons

Transfer Dealings (upto 11/08/07)
The first thought on my mind was to strength the squad for a promotion push, even though i told the board a top half finish i reall want to achieve promotion if i can, with this in mind i signed the followin players

http://img180.imageshack.us/img180/3...stransfbv7.png

Tactic for the season
Decided early on the go with a 442 formation which i created myself just for this game (can be avaliable for testing if anyone is interested =P)

http://img502.imageshack.us/img502/9...sqprtaclm7.png

My squad so far (upto 11/08/07)

http://img502.imageshack.us/img502/3...sqprplaoi8.png

Pre-season friendlies

Bury 0-3 QPR (Blackstock,Stancu,Barker)

Clyde 2-5 QPR (Priskin 3,Stancu,Blackstock)

Peterborough 0-5 QPR (Priskin,Buzsaky,Stancu 2,Blackstock)

Longford 2-6 QPR (Hall,Blackstock 2,Torje,Rowlands,Stancu)

Bath 0-2 QPR (Musampa,Torje)

Not bad results in pre-season, the lads gained match fitness which is wot was needed and they look like there starting to gel to the tactic aswell alround good pre season =)

Carling Cup 1st round Draw

http://img181.imageshack.us/img181/2...pstagesjj2.png

So i got drawn against Shrewsbury Town at Home, a fixture in which i can maybe try a few tactical tweaks and fringe players.

And the season starts with a bang

QPR - Coventry (Loftus Road)

http://img408.imageshack.us/img408/3...verviewot5.png

What can I say what a game,Mifsud ripped my team apart at times =( but hey good job we can score too.

QPR - Shrewsbury Town (Loftus Road) Carling Cup 1st Round


http://img113.imageshack.us/img113/7...verviewaz5.png

A good display from the lads,played a weaken side to a certain extent but still won quite easy which is all good.

Carling Cup Draw

http://img138.imageshack.us/img138/5...pstagesik1.png

So a local derby for the 2nd Round =)

Charlton - QPR (The Valley)

http://img529.imageshack.us/img529/4...verviewol7.png

Not a good performance from the lads to be honest still long way in the season to go yet tho.

QPR - Scunthorpe (Loftus Road)

http://img262.imageshack.us/img262/1...verviewed5.png

Not the greatest performance in the world but a win is a win.

QPR - Crystal Palace (Loftus Road) Carling Cup 2nd Round


http://img527.imageshack.us/img527/6...eovervipq1.png

A good performance from the lads against a strong Palace side and we march on to the next round.

League Table so far

http://img170.imageshack.us/img170/7...leaguecnv1.png

5th's not bad at this stage of the season i suppose, think team is starting to settle down together and my two latest signings can only strenghten the squad more.

Two latest signings

http://img177.imageshack.us/img177/1...profilekh4.png

http://img442.imageshack.us/img442/8...profilepw0.png

With those two signings secured it made us the most active team in the transfer window.

Next update will be in a months time (FM time)

September update

Hull – QPR (The Circle)

http://img152.imageshack.us/img152/1...verviewyx3.png

A good soild alround performance from the lads

QPR – Southampton (Loftus Road)

http://img181.imageshack.us/img181/9...verviewpl9.png

Not the best possible result by all means but still unbeaten

Watford – QPR (Vicarage Road)

http://img181.imageshack.us/img181/4...verviewhu3.png

How we won this i’ll never know, totally undeserved

QPR – Barnsley (Loftus Road)

http://img180.imageshack.us/img180/7...verviewvs8.png

Another average performance and the fact i’m struggling to convert chances I create is frustrating

QPR – Reading Carling Cup 3rd Round (Loftus Road)

http://img208.imageshack.us/img208/6...verviewdb2.png

Well i never saw this coming to be honest, the score line doesn’t show the
whole story as Reading dominated from start to finish but hey were in the hat for the next round.

Carling Cup Draw

http://img113.imageshack.us/img113/2...pstagesta2.png

So we get Spurs away in the next round, tough draw but we’ll give it a go.

QPR – Ipswich (Loftus Road)

http://img211.imageshack.us/img211/5...verviewfb6.png

A good solid performance which could and should have led to more goals.

League Table

http://img152.imageshack.us/img152/8...leaguecdc4.png

Not a bad start to the season i suppose, would like to keep more clean sheets though to be honest.

Next update will be after Jan transfer window.

Right i get the save game from lee who missed out on promotion by a whisker so the first i do is look at how much i got to spend and i end up with 22mill so i planned to spend big and i do:



I get off to good start to the league campaign floating around the playoffs till December then the wheels start to come off and im getting further and further away from the light at the end of tunnel.So we are heading into the final run in then out of the blue i get approached by the press asking me if i was interested in the Derby job who at this point are sitting in a promotion place i said i was interested so come March they offered me the job which i took,so we got 6 games left with playoffs a cert.Finally end up with a place in the playoffs with a semi final against Wolves which we lost the 1st 3-1 so i throw the hairdryer and hairspray in anger 2nd leg we won 2-1 losing 4-3 on agg.

Let the story continue..................
