    and this is my best starting XI!

    Fonte suspended, hooiveld loan has finished. Guly injured and steve injured.

    bearing in mind i have only just taken over. I have a budget of 1.6m i think. I need a new CB if not two, a new winger and a new striker!! nigel bought bardsley for 1.6 and craig beattie for 1.3!

    Playing it for the first time this week, I am still 9th in the Championship, got an away draw Bristol Rovers 1-1, 84 minute equaliser, could have been different with Jake Sinclair's solo run at 90 mins crossed it in and saved, he is a great player and is now on my bench at Gills.

    Another goal for Jay Rodriguez, 16 goals in as many games,
    A 2-0 win against Derby, another clean sheet, that is 3 in the last 4 games if I remember correct as last I played it I won 2 games really well without letting in a goal and then a 1-1 draw and then 2-0, that is a very good run.

    Just coming off now, just lost 2-3 at home against Reading, not the worst result ever, they are a good team,
    I was 1 nil down then went 1-1 then they took the lead again, we got back to two all 1 minute later and at 86 minutes they got a winner with a mistake by my defence allowing them in.

    My latest move on my unemployment challenge is to Fiorentina. They've won 3 league titles in the last 6 years and have given me a transfer budget of £57m. I see silverware finally on the horizon.

    Love Fiorentina, going over to see them play in a couple of weeks irl. On my first ever FM save (FM10) I learnt the ropes at another club I support, Sporting Lisbon (wining three league titles, two Portugese Cup, winning the UEFA Cup as well as getting a UEFA Cup runner up medal) before moving to Fiorentina, who Martin Jol had taken to the brink of relegation. Managed to keep them up, finishing about 15th and getting to the semi's of the Coppa Italia. The next season, my first full one in chareg, I raided my old club Sporting for Schniederlin and Adrian, brought in Pazzini, Luisao and Suarez and actually won the league, but got nowhere in the Coppa Italia. Was a fun game, but I find managing in Italy hard as every game seems to be against a 'fierce rival' and the fans get royally pissed off if you lose!

    Best of luck, with a £57m budget you should be work wonders. What year are you in?

    Oh, and everyone should go to the FM Forums and download the much-anticipated Golden Eagles' English Level 14 league extension that came out in the early hours of this morning after a huge wait. Simply amazing, I'm about to start a very long-term save with my village team Overton United, currently playing in the Hampshire Premier Division. There's loads of Southampton/Portsmouth teams on there as well, I recommend everyone give it a look.

    I'm in 2025. I took over in October with the club underperforming, but I've taken them up to 3rd by December. All my players are regens with the exception of Soualiho Meite (starts at Auxerre and gets awesome) but there is so much potential in this team. I also plan on signing the ridiculous striker I posted a screenshot of a few pages back. I can definitely win the league with this team.

    I'll give that league extension a try tomorrow. Sounds fun.

    I just can't think who to go as when the game starts, Chatham or Maidstone, Chatham is where I am born and is very near to me, but I like Maidstone and they are like a second team, so hard to choose.
