Brilliant season there Ryan. Febian Brandy is brilliant at Swansea. I kept him on loan for three years and he continually scored loads for me. Then I got him on a freebie when his contract ran out. Maybe you should think about that.  |

Sam Vokes is a great player.
1. He's only 17.
2. He's Welsh so its good because im a Welsh club.
3. He is fairly cheap to buy, he scored alot for my U18's and Reserves, he was injured for quite a bit of the season thou. I will get a screenshot of him up soon.
Yeah, i was thinking about getting him next season on loan Ru. He got me alot of point, he seems to score alot of offside goals if he could sort that out he could have got another 8-10.
Thanks for reading, much appreciated =] |

Sam Vokes is like a fair few other players, he sorts out his positioning problems the older and more experienced he gets.
And I agree with Ru, trying to keep hold of brandy is a must, he will pay dividends for you if he is kept fit and happy! |

I decided i am now going to update every month. With transfers, team ratings, league table every 6 months. So i will just be posting results everymonth mainly, sometimes i will add my best player through the month. Pre Season
FC Basel 1 - Swansea 4
Servette FC 1 - Swansea 2
Young Boys 2 - Swansea 2
Swansea 1- Aston Villa 1
Wrexham 0 - Swansea 2
Managers view going into first game of the Championship:
A few players out with injuries, but im sure i can cope, i have a strong team which i am sure is capable of at least a mid table finish, but we are jus concentrating on avoiding relgation this season. Joe Garner scored 5 in 5 during pre season and will be a big boost in his confidence.
Will update again at end of August.
Thanks for reading.

Unlucky not to come in second place mate.
Great pre season too, sam vokes looks like a good player for that league, i think that you might have inspired me to do a Swansea game after my current one.
KIU mate |

how did you manage to get Shane Supple for 85k on my game he is 1.5mill | | | | | | | 13-07-08, 05:44 PM | #17 (permalink) | | Used In Squad Rotation Join Date: Aug 2007 Location: In Norfolk Posts: 274 Thanks: 12 Thanked 43 Times in 39 Posts Nominated 0 Times in 0 Posts TOTW/F/M Award(s): 0 |
Well, my first choice keeper was injured before the start of the season so i was looking to loan a young keeper for to loan for 3 months, then i was looking at the Ipswich team to see who they had bought because after Arsenal they're my second team, i saw Supple and saw people making bids of 65k, so i offered 85k for him, he signed a contract and broke into my team straight away. Now the season has started. Transfers:  My stupid chairman decided he'd except 2.5m for Pratley who is one of my best players, then he keeps some of the money, i wasn't happy. Rojas wanted to leave for West Ham and 900k profit over a season wasnt to bad, and i had Ryan Bertrand who was just as good. I was to start the season with alot of key players out: Brandy (2 months), Pratley (2 weeks/ he wasnt sold untill a few games into the season), Cathcart (2 weeks). Here are the results from August:
Swansea 3 - 0 Preston NE
Rojas (pen 11)
Andy Robinson (28)
Darryl Duffy (90)
Joe Garner inured (9)
Angel Rangel injured (43)
Swansea 2 - 1 Crystal Palace
Ferrie Bodde (34) Craig Beattie (38)
Darryl Duffy (41)
Sheffield United 3 - 0 Swansea
Billy Sharp pen (10)
Nick Montgomery (29)
Johnathon Stead (66)
Carling cup
Hereford 0 - 2 Swansea
Joe Garner (36)
Darren Pratley (90)
Ferrie Bodde injured (15)
Birmingham 3 - 3 Swansea
James McFadden (57, 64) Darren Pratley (37)
Oliver Kapo (83) Joe Garner (41, 68)
Liam Ridgewell sent off (71)
Swansea 2 - 0 Plymouth
Lee Carsley (68) Steve MacLean missed pen (48)
Ica Bagci (90) Krisztian Timar sent off (68)
Southampton 5 - 3 Swansea Grzegorz Rasiak (17) Jason Scotland (37, 41) Bradley Wright Phillips (58, 73) Darren Pratley (68) Andrew Surman (78) Jason Scotland missed penalty (90) Marek Saganowski (86)
Carling cup
Burnley 1 - 0 Swansea
Wade Eliot (44)
Swansea 0 - 2 Wigan
Andy Robinson injured (51) Michael Brown (15)
Julius Aghahowa (68)
League table
My player of month:
Andy Robinson:
Took me ages to do the results with scorers etc.
Praise and critisise please.
It has come out how i planned, as the spaces beetween the teams dissapead. If anybody knows how i can sort it out please comment and say how.
Thanks for reading.

Some good signings there and they seem like they're doing well.
You should stay up and if results keep going the way they are, you will.
Good luck. |
