Default Braintree Going Up, Up And Away. . .

Mostly because Dafudge and Wednesdayboy both said I couldn't do it. I've decided that its time to work some magic and get these boys into the premierleague. It may take a few seasons, may take 15, but mark my words it will be done ;)












So there it is. . . We'll see how it goes! I'll get an update once i'm all started and have my transfers in. Its going to be one hell of a struggle i think, but should be alot of fun :)

Start of Season Club Expectations: Top Half Finish
Transfer Budget: None
Weekly Wage Budget: 4.8k/Week

Klum I was joking, of course you can do it, the biggest challenge you'll find is keeping playing with that same club after about 3 seasons.

Pre-Season Completed:




Even after all of there, here are my Media Predictions:






There ya go! Apparently the pundits have my name written in gold for the end of the season.

Although, that Pre-Season schedule really hurt. With 7 goals for and 26 against, for a lovely -19 goal difference.

:( Its going to be painful me thinks.

Three wins this month! Holy moly, but alas alot of loses. Highlights would be the 3-nil wins over Sutton Utd (Har har sutton going down ;) ) and against Vauxhall. Another rough month though, man, my boys need to turn it around! Started using a new tactic near end of the month, looks like it may be my turning point.

Got through first qualifier for FA cup! Woo Woo!

October Fixtures, Results & Summary:

October 6th, 2007 BSS (H)
- Braintree 2 - 3 Bishop's Stortford
Match Overview here.
October 13th FA Cup 3rd Qual. Rd (H)
- Braintree 4 - 1 Bishop's Stortford
Match Overview here.
October 20th BSS (A)
- Braintree 0 - 0 Maidenhead
Match Overview here.
October 23th BSS (H)
- Braintree 2 - 1 Hampton & Richmond
Match Overview here.
October 27th FA Cup 4th Qual. Rd (H)
- Braintree 2 - 1 Histon
Match Overview here.
October 31st BSS (H)
- Braintree 0 - 2 Dorchester
Match Overview here.

Not a bad month 3 wins, 1 draw and two losses. Toughest part is that most of them are close fought matches with late goals/PKs doing me in. Alas, my team likes the cup more then the league as two of my wins were in the cup with a HUGE 4-1 win over Bishop's Stortford who'd beaten me a few days before. QUALIFIED FOR THE FA CUP 1st ROUND! Woo Woo! Had a tough match against Histon (Winners of the BSS last year), but prevailed to march onwards! One win in the FA Cup will fix my financial standing too. . . oh a boy can dream can't he?
New update tonight when i'm done November :)

Good thread this is, check out my thread for players lol. And also, could you show us league table every month or something? And really, you should get promoted easily, Blue Square South isn't hard and I got Eastleigh promoted first season...

Challenge: Destroy a big four
My choice: Liverpool :P
