I'll bet the draw against St Johnstone was disappointing too. Anyhow, not a bad update Dundee Utd and Cellik apart. You were never going to beat Cellik anyway, the AI wouldn't let it happen, yet.
KUTGW! :thumb:

You need Mr Allardyce in charge, Pops, he can beat those Smellik lot nae bother.
Other than the girlie cup though, a very good update indeed. :thumb:

The St Johnstone result was disappointing, yes, especially considering my next game is against them in the cup.
I'm surprised the defeats aren't coming more often, actually, and am expecting them.

Cup
H v St.Johnstone: 3-1: Slavering Beastie ; Hairless Plunder ; Consonantless
Good win and draw St Mirren in the next round.
A v Kilmarnock: 3-0: Slavering Beastie 2 ; Trick Baby
Massive Moustache is out for a month.
H v Livingston: 3-2: Slavering Beastie ; Consonantless ; Nearly A Nonce
Cup
H v St.Mirren: 3-0: Healthy Fondlings 2 (1p) ; Slavering Beastie
With Trick Baby and Healthy Fondlings injured, I now have 5 first-teamers out.
I agree with media praise of Slavering Beastie and please the fans, as well as fat camper John Boyle.
Cellik win the league cup.
A v Smellik: 2-2: Slavering Beastie ; Hope Springs Infernal
They equalised last couple of minutes.
I had a minor panic that all my rivals were spending lots of cash, so I dipped in, despite my fullish squad.
In came Major Meejer, SPA, 19, SW/D/DM RC, 45k from Alaves B.
Also Railroad Cistern, 26, NIR, DC, 26 caps for 825k from Kilmarnock.
H v Dundee: 3-3: Rainy Rock ; Slavering Beastie 2
Cup Semi
N v Aberdeen: 2-2: Slavering Beastie ; Healthy Fondlings
I sign Treatment Rope, M/F LC, 22, Austrian international on what I thought was a Bozzer from Ibrox. It was an "approach to sign" job at end of contract.
For some reason, though, it looks like I have to pay 825k to Rangers.
Oh well.
Good job I'm minted.
Just noticed that in this little mini-update, Slavering Beastie scored 9 goals in 7 games.
To disagree with the media would be churlish...

You're on 01-02 so that would be the compensation you're paying for an under 24yo.

They might have mentioned it at some point in the negotiations and not left it until the deal was signed and sealed.
It's like working with Willie Mackay.

The compensation in 01-02 was insane at times, though that's not to bad a comp to give for a good player
That was a good update there Pops, well done :thumb:

So we move into the final phase of the season and I think am ahead enough of Dundee Utd to at least claim 4th spot, which is fan-bloody-tastic. A v Hibs: 2-2: Rainy Rock ; Hope Springs InfernalCup SF ReplayN v Aberdeen: 4-2: Healthy Fondlings 2 ; Hope Springs Infernal ; Massive MoustacheGreat result. We are now into the post-split league and draw Rangers in the cup final. A v Dundee: 4-2: Digital Bumhole ; Slavering Beastie 2 (inc 20th) ; Montrose Brewery (1st ever!)One of my very first Well signings, Montrose Brewery- had a shady start, lost his place, put on list, wanted for a long time, seemed to sit about- took off list, got glowing training report and now he's back in the mix a little. H v Cellik: 3-1: Healthy Fondlings (10th) ; Hope Springs Infernal (15th) ; Slavering BeastieGerrrinthere! YaH! A v Dundee Utd: 3-1: Nearly a Nonce 2 ; Hairless PlunderI get Manager of Month for April and Slavering Beastie gets Player of Month. Erectile Nonsense signs a Bozzer with St Mirren, netting us 800k comp. H v Aberdeen: 2-2: Slavering Beastie ; Biscuit SteveH v Rangers: 2-0: Hope Springs Infernal ; Slavering BeastieWe finish 4th and get 450k. 1- Cellik 82pts ; 2-Gers 77pts ; 3-Dundee 73pts ; 4-Motherwell P38 W19 D14 L5 F85 A59 71pts. 5-Aberdeen 55pts. St.Johnstone, Dallas Ploughboy's new club, are relegated, chortle chortle. A new record high league position; a new record high ave attendance of 11829, prompting the board to expand the stadium by 4208 seats. Lank Piper is runner-up in Young Player of the Year. Ancient Loo Roll & Consonantless make the team of the year.
Slavering Beastie's rating of 8.11 in 27 appearances is a new club record.
Ancient Loo Roll is called up to the Scotland squad, Nealr a Nonce & Railroad Cistern called up to NIreland, Lank Piper to England U21s, Russ Scabbott & Son of the Carpenter to Scotland U21s.
CUP FINAL
Hampden v Rangers: 2-1: Slavering Beastie ; Massive Moustache
And a trophy to boot, albeit by the skin of our teeth. Michael Owen has been taken off injured every game we've played against Rangers. 
Yay, frankly.
500k tv money comes in, Arab Ship, Dallas Ploughboy, Grizzly P, Erectile Nonsense all leave.
Treatment Rope arrives. Soup Kitchen Control & Middlesex Jam go on loan to Dumbarton and Stenhousemuir respectively.
My scouts have given me a shortlist that is long enough for Salman Rushdie to be proud of. But I don't actually need anyone. Do I?
Curried Todger retires to coach only.
Hope Springs Infernal is Fans POY.
My directors are delighted, but also now expect European qualification.
Hoisted by my own petard?
We are seeded for the first round of the UEFA cup.

Oh, I see you did that already.

Very well done there Pops :thumb: I'd say your the reason that Rangers finished second, and with nothing to show for the season :checkit: I'd also say that that the million ssquid spent on Slavering Beastie was squid well eaten, what with him just about paying his transfer back with your squad finish and the girlie cup to boot. Speaking of which, exhalt! :thumb: |

Ian-terestingly, Slavering's history shows no sign of the 27 apps after his loan spell- just the loan spell.
Anyway, no updates, or indeed contributions to anything for a while as I am on holiday with many brothers here.

Well, despite my thoosands of visitors (and they're still here) I managed to squeeze in a couple of late-night CM sessions. Absolutely floored by horn's FM07 adventures, though- I feel... medieval. Remarkably enough, the summer went by so fast, I failed dismally to play any friendlies and suddenly found myself with an away game against Hibernian. Onwards, then. A v Hibs: 4-0: Slavering Beastie; Healthy Fondlings 2; Cat Girl TightsAnd a fine surprising start, to boot. Arab Ship, who so huffily signed with Partick Thistle, suddenly signs for St Mirren. How does that work, then? 2 clubs in 2 weeks? Mentalist. H v Hearts: 3-2: Slavering Beastie ; Hope Springs Infernal; Donkey Bellow (1st ever)I get a yoof promtion, DMC, 17, Little HandoutsE's a 'Ippo goes on loan to East Fife. A v Cellik: 2-2: Slavering Beastie; biscuit StevePoofy Offspring joins Cowdenbeath on loan. H v Dundee: 1-2: Hope Springs InfernalMy "weirdo bogey team" I've written here in my notes. Perhaps that should be weirdo bogey player as Big Bad John gets another brace. We draw Sliema Wanderers of Malta in the Wafer Cup. H v Partick T: 3-0: Kitty Jay; Hope Springs Infernal; Healthy FondlingsI reached a point here where it was the same old faces. Granted, my faces were doing a reasonable job, but... well. I like buying players. I determined that it was ship up or ship out time. I like those times. UEFA CoopH V Sliema Wdrs: 5-1: Slavering Beastie; Hope Springs Infernal 2; Biscuit Steve; Healthy FondlingsNice start to Europe, with our first ever hitting of 5, I believe. A v Livingston: 2-2: Flumpsville USA (1st ever); Impure Nigel (1st ever)Two new scorers as the European fatigue factor kicks in. Also the registering of players thingy. League CupA v Livingston: 3-1: Healthy Fondlings (5th); Slavering Beastie; Hairless PlunderH v St Mirren: 2-0: biscuit Steve; Hope Springs InfernalI build up some press praise of Hope Springs and fat camp fooker is chuffed. A v Sliema Wdrs: 2-1: SLavering Beastie 2With The Mighty Anorak sent off early doors, not a bad result. Giving Donkey Bellow a couple of games is more trouble than worth as he now demands assurances and wants to be a first team regular. The fight for places among the forwards is hot. A v Killie: 4-1: Slavering Beastie: Healthy Fondlings; Hope Springs Infernal; SkywalkerThe Chilean wonderpuff, Healthy Fondlings is coming into his own now with a lot of goals, happily. As utility cover, I pay 1.6m (inc addons) for Chain of Rivalry, a 26 yo Irishman- D/AM/F RLC from Millwall. A v Aberdeen: 0-3: Ancient Loo Roll is sent off and all hell breaks loose. No chance. The directors are unhappy with the performance. Hmm. No slack in this game, eh? A v Hearts: 2-1: Rainy Rock; Hope Springs InfernalUEFA CoopH v Hertha BSC: 3-1: Trick Baby; Slavering Beastie; ogGreat result, happily helped by them going down to ten men first half. The 198k gate receipts are a new record. H v Cellik: 3-3: Rainy Rock; Skywalker; Hope Springs InfernalAnother point off the smellies and they had to utilist the Cellik 89th min equaliser rule. A v Rangers: 1-1: SkywalkerAnd the 93rd min equaliser rule on this one. A v Hertha BSC: 4-0: Healthy Fondlings (p); Slavering Beastie 3Rather harshly, they are down to ten men after 1 minute. Bless. The board are happy with this one and think Slavering Beastie and Hope Springs Infernal are indispensible. H v Hibs: 2-3: Nearly A Nonce ; Flumpsville USABum. Kitty Jay agrees a Bozzer with Partick. I got a bit pissed off with a few players who refused to sign new contracts. H v Dundee Utd: 1-0: SkywalkerSign Inca Snail on a free: 25 yo SWE, AM RC. UEFA CupA v Fiorentina: 1-0: Rainy RockAn away goal! Middlesex Jam is sold to Elgin for 45k. I have a Scottish international keeper, and English U21 keeper and a Scottish U21 keeper, so he's feeling a bit inadequate. A round of coach reports prompts a round of transfer listing. A quick check sees that St Johnstone are romping to the D1 title thanks totally to... yep, Dallas Ploughboy. A v Dundee: 2-2: og; Treatment RopeAnother 2 Big Bad John goals! Mental! League Cup QFA v Hibs: 3-2 (aet): Impure Nigel 2; Healthy Fondlings (p)So largely cautiously optimistic so far. Horn's manipulation of the media has my interest piqued, though... Ha! |

Ha! Indeed.
A mightily impressive set of results, there, old chap. Where abouts in the tablelist are you? Can't be a kick in the slats off 2nd, shirley>?

Nice work Pops, especially the draw against the Old Firm where the AI is clearly cheating.

Not sure about the table- probably 4th or 5th. I know Aberdeen are up there. I suspect I will not achieve Europe this season, so not get my contract renewed by the board. I've said it before, but this isn't the CM I remember.

Can't remember his real name, so dunno.
It's probably "Machu Pichu Slowcoach" or something.
