  2. I'm bored, so it's time for EPIC FM UPDATE!

    I started a game as Notts County, currently in November 2017. My league positions have been as follows:

    2009/10: 4th in League Two, won the play-offs

    2010/11: 3rd in League One, won the play-offs

    2011/12: 5th in Championship, won the play-offs (I am indeed the play-off master >_>)

    2012/13: 8th in Premier League

    2013/14: 9th in Premier League

    2014/15: 10th in Premier League

    2015/16: 9th in Premier League

    2016/17: 10th in Premier League

    In addition, I've won two FA Cups, two Carling Cups, and the Europa League :D

    And now, the big one: transfers. Obviously I've had plenty of money every season, so I've been willing to pay over the odds for some people.

    2009/10 (4th in League Two):

    In

    Liam Cooper (Loan from Hull) - Don't remember him playing much, he was just sent because Hull were a parent club.

    Michael Duff (650k from Burnley) - Ever-present for my first two seasons

    Rachid Bouaouzan (675k from Wigan) - Mainly used as a squad player for a few seasons

    Brendan Moloney (Loan from Nottingham Forest) - Was great that season.

    Ben Parker (95k from Leeds) - Didn't really play all that much.

    Anton Peterlin (250k from Everton) - A squad player who somehow stuck around for years.

    David Edwards (650k from Wolves) - Star man for the first three seasons

    Shelton Martis (100k from West Brom) - Always in the team, and later became captain.

    Jemal Johnson (95k from MK Dons) - Barely played.

    Nathan Tyson (150k from Nottingham Forest) - Scored a bucketload in his first two seasons.

    2010/11 (3rd in League One):

    In

    Brendan Moloney (250k from Nottingham Forest) - He was good enough to warrant the buy.

    Kevin Phillips (Free transfer) - Scored 16 and had 6 assists in 34 appearances.

    Stephen Ward (950k from Wolves) - Played him at left back, and he was a rock for a couple of seasons.

    Gavin Williams (250k from Bristol City) - Mostly made substitute appearances

    Adriano Basso (Free transfer) - Awesome keeper, who kept Schmeichel out of the team.

    Amdy Faye (Free transfer) - Only really played that one season, mostly as a sub.

    Tommy Smith (Loan from Ipswich) - Good defender who I decided against buying.

    Ishmael Miller (1.1m from West Brom) - My new favourite guy. Scored 24 with 11 assists in his first season, and 16 with 15 assists in his second. Stuck around as a squad player in the Premiership.

    Steven Mouyokolo (Loan from Hull) - sent by the parent team. Didn't play much.

    Freddie Ljungberg (275k from Sunderland) - Didn't play all that much. Now manages Everton.

    Danny Pugh (1.3m from Stoke) - Didn't play much in his first season, but became the star man in the Championship. Got plenty of Premiership game time as a sub.

    Out

    All these guys were frees, mostly clearing out the squad I inherited:

    Jamie Clapham

    Matt Hamshaw

    Mike Edwards

    Lee Hughes

    Russell Hoult

    Craig Westcarr

    Delroy Facey

    Kevin Pilkington

    2011/12 (5th in Championship):

    In

    Jeffrey Bruma (Loan from Chelsea) - Played every game, but was just okay.

    Michael Owen (Free transfer) - Overpaid flop. Now manages Sheffield United.

    Mikael Silvestre (Free transfer) - Solid squad player.

    Dady (1.1m from Osasuna) - Never really got going.

    Darnel Situ (Loan from RC Lens) - Didn't play a huge amount of games, but did well.

    Chris Solly (1.7m from Charlton) - Great right-back.

    Youssuf Mulumbu (800k from West Brom) - Always just a squad player, but managed to stick around for years.

    Mark Bunn (2.5m from Blackburn) - Quality keeper, who took Basso's place in the squad.

    Dimitris Salpingdis (130k from Panathinaikos) - Just a squad player, but scored some important goals. Bargain.

    Zoltan Gera (375k from Fulham) - Big flop.

    Out

    Graeme Lee (Free transfer) - Never got a game.

    Johnnie Jackson (Free) - Same

    Kasper Schmeichel (240k to Bristol City) - Had dropped to third in the pecking order, wanted to leave.

    Ben Davies (Free to Scunthrope) - Had a great season in League Two, but barely played after that.

    Karl Hawley (Free to Hartlepool)

    Ben Parker (Free to Sheffield United)

    Jemal Johnson (Free)

    Shelton Martis (Free to Aberdeen) - :( Dropped down the pecking order

    Rachid Bouaouzan (Loan to Derby)

    2012/13 (8th in Premiership):

    Roberto Lara (2m from Barcelona) - Regen. Pretty damn good.

    Nikolay Mihaylov (Free) - Signed as a backup keeper, never played a game.

    Radoslav Kovac (2.8m from West Ham) - Did alright for a few years, but nothing special.

    Mattia Destro (Loan from Inter) - Played really well, but didn't want to sign permanently.

    Julio Baptista (Free) - His wages were probably too high for his role as a supersub.

    Stiliyan Petrov (1m from Sevilla) - Played a lot of good games in his first season.

    Tom De Mul (8.25m from Bordeaux) - Wasn't worth the money; only played 24 games in 3 years.

    Matthew Upson (1.7m from West Ham) - Ageing, but very good.

    Adrian (3.4m from Lyon) - Always a back-up striker, but he did okay.

    Guillermo Ochoa (Free) - Best buy I ever made. Has hardly put a foot wrong, and has never wanted to leave.

    Robert Huth (5.5m from Stoke) - Too injury-prone to be effective

    Jakub Blaszczykowski (4m from A.C. Milan) - Played far more than De Mul ever did. First-choice for a season or two, and then stuck around as a squad player.

    Deco (230k from Liverpool) - Didn't play much. Now manages West Ham.

    Sergio Busquets (1.8m from Barcelona) - He was good, but a whiny bitch.

    Nedum Onouha (Loan from Inter) - He wasn't that great, so I didn't sign him. Newcastle and then Arsenal did though, and now he's probably the best defender in the Premiership >_<

    Marco Borriello (2.4m from A.C. Milan) - Always scored a decent amount of goals.

    Out

    Zoltan Gera (Free)

    David Edwards (Free to Celtic) - Signed a pre-contract with them just as we got promoted to the Premiership :(

    Nikolay Mihaylov (Loan to Atletico Madrid)

    2013/14 (9th in Premiership, Carling, FA Cup, Europa League):

    In

    Abel Hernandez (10m from Palermo) - My second best buy, even if he seems to follow up an epic season with a fairly poor one repeatedly. In 126 league appearances, he's scored 61 goals and had 32 assists.

    James Milner (5.5m from Barcelona) - Took him a while to get going, and he wanted to leave for a while, but turned into one of my best players.

    Jason Brown (1.2m from Aston Villa) - Backup keeper. Played 5 games in 2 years.

    Fabian Delph (13m from Aston Villa) - One of my most dependable players. Has justified the fee.

    Rio Ferdinand (250k from Manchester United) - Great player and captain. Played three seasons before retiring.

    Andrey Arshavin (575k from Arsenal) - Showed early promise, but it faded out.

    Out

    Nikolay Mihaylov (1.2m to Atletico Madrid)

    Mark Bunn (1.6m to QPR) - Was pissed off at never playing anymore.

    Dady (525k to Sheffield Wednesday)

    Gavin Williams (140k to Bristol City)

    Stephen Ward (1.1m to Stoke)

    Chris Solly (10m to Everton) - Didn't want to sell him, but his morale was shit. He ended up being the worst signing of the season ^_^

    2014/15 (10th in Premiership):

    In

    Gonzalo Rodriguez (3.4m from Manchester United) - Never really played all that well, despite me sticking by him.

    Steven Defour (15m from Wolfsburg) - Really solid midfielder, and my captain.

    Robinho (2.9m from Man City) - Cost a fortune in wages, and played shit.

    Kolo Toure (1.6m from Man City) - Very dependable.

    Kwadwo Asamoah (20m from CSKA Moscow) - Great player, but always looking to leave.

    Jeffrey Bruma (Loan from Real Madrid) - Brought him back, and he was much better this time.

    Out

    Danny Pugh (Free)

    Dimitris Salpingidis (Free)

    David Wilkinson (500k to Wolves)

    Matthew Upson (250k to Sheffield United)

    Robinho (1m from Juventus) - So shit I sold him in January.

    Derek Perry (825k to Man City)

    2015/16 (9th in Premiership, FA Cup):

    In

    Jeffrey Bruma (7m from Real Madrid) - Took up the option to buy him, and he turned out great.

    Darnel Situ (15m from HSV) - Brought him back and he was awesome.

    Robert Acquafresca (15m from Genoa) - Been an effective strike partner with Hernandez. Doesn't score as much, but sets up plenty.

    Zoran Tosic (25m from Man Utd) - Definitely overpriced, but he's been great.

    Joleon Lescott (1m from Man City) - Brought in as a back-up left back, ended up having to play most games.

    Lorik Cana (5m from Sunderland) - Paid over the odds for him in January because of a lot of injuries.

    Out

    Roberta Lara (12m to Shakhtar) - Sold over my head, hence why Lescott became first-choice. Very pissed off about this at the time.

    Tom De Mul (2m to Newcastle)

    Radoslav Kovac (Free)

    Julio Baptista (Free)

    Andrey Arshavin (250k to Wigan)

    Ishmael Miller (2.1m to Wigan) - :(

    2016/17 (10th in Premiership, Carling Cup):

    In

    Mats Rits (20m from Udinese) - He's been good, but doesn't play as often as he probably should.

    Simon Kjaer (15m from HSV) - Almost always plays. Great defender.

    Emmanuel Adebayor (Free) - Wages were expensive, and he only scored 6 in 21, but there were some important goals there, and he scored the winner in the cup final.

    Kasper Schmeichel (3.5m from Newcastle) - Brought him back as a back-up keeper.

    Tommy Spurr (5m from Wolves) - He was okay, but not good enough. Ended up going to Man Utd though :huh:

    Out

    Adrian (Free)

    Jason Brown (Free)

    Robert Huth (Free)

    Sergio Busquets (Loan to Leverkusen)

    Gary Francis (750k to Chelsea) - Youth player they signed.

    Youssuf Mulumbu (1m to Sevilla)

    Gonzalo Rodriguez (100k to West Brom)

    Lorik Cana (Loan to Reading)

    2017/18 (Current season. Struggling in the bottom half :():

    In

    Juan Manuel Vargas (4m from Villareal) - Can play anywhere on the left, so has been very useful.

    Filipe (3.7m from Man City) - First-choice left-back.

    Jack Cork (12m from Chelsea) - I get the feeling I've got a flop on my hands.

    Rafinha (3.2m from Man Utd) - Good right-back.

    Daniel Sturridge (11.25m from Chelsea) - See Jack Cork.

    Out

    Sergio Busquets (12m to Leverkusen)

    Jakub Blaszczykowski (Free)

    Joleon Lescott (Free)

    Tommy Spurr (10m to Man Utd)

    Jeffrey Bruma (10m to Chelsea) - Sadly he wanted to leave :(

    My tactics through the years have varied from 4-4-2 to 5-4-1 to 3-1-4-2 (most of my squad was injured that season, and my squad players all did really well). Currently we play 4-4-2, and this is my squad:

    Guillermo Ochoa

    Kasper Schmeichel

    Kolo Toure

    Jack Cork

    Simon Kjaer

    Darnel Situ

    Rafinha

    Filipe

    Juan Manuel Vargas

    Kwadwo Asamoah

    Lorik Cana

    Steven Defour

    Fabian Delph

    Mats Rits

    James Milner

    Zoran Tosic

    Daniel Sturridge

    Abel Hernandez

    Robert Acquafresca

    Emmanuel Adebayor

    Tosic is out with a torn calf for quite a while, so my normal 4-5-1 line-up is:

    Ochoa

    Rafinha Situ Kjaer Filipe

    Defour

    Asamoah Delph

    Sturridge Milner

    Hernandez

    So...yeah >_>
