Currently doing a St.Johnstone save and I'm in my third season now. 1st season was very average(ended 10th), 2nd season went VERY well though.. I got off to a cracking start in the league & somehow managed to end 2nd AND qualify for Europe! Liam Craig & Febian Brandy were my star men. Brandy scored 30 in 35 apps(shows the quality of the SPL to be honest..) and Liam Craig(played him at LM.. but is a natural CM) made 36 apps 16 goals(mostly pens) AND 17 assists with a average rating of 7.26. Now in my third season(currently in Dec 9th 2012) got knocked out of BOTH European cups(Kiev/Basel respectively).. BUT I'm 2nd in the table with Rangers in 1st(3 points behind them)... mmm... OH and guess who I got on a free in the summer to partner Brandy... SHOLA AMEOBI!!! <laugh> 13 apps 2 goals 4 assists and 6.95 rating..

O.o interesting just been approached by Wigan(currently 6th in the EPL.. wow & they sacked Martinez... wtf???).. They've offered me a budget of 7.5m.. mmm.. should I take it? They have some average players but I could make them into a Europa League outfit with that money if I wheel & deal... What should I do? Tempting.. I want to win the SPL with St.Johnstone if I'm honest! <ok>

11.3 PATCH

He's even useless in Scotland <laugh>
 
What is the 11.3 patch?

I'd go for the league. Though Wigan usually stick by their managers so you'd have time to get your team together. Did you loan any of the toon youth?

Super J's.
 
It's handheld...

Oh.. that's why. I've got it aswell on my PSP.. haven't played it for ages. <laugh>

Yeah I think your telling the truth now because the handheld is MUCH more simple & easier to play compared to the PC version.
 
My best management promotion is straight from Stenhousemuir FC to Fulham. Managed to get Celtic as my feeder team with Stenny and got promoted 2 season in a row, pretty much with the full celtic reserve side on loan!!! <laugh>
 
Really tempted to do a save in Scotland now and build a really strong team of players who are **** in England. Think I'll stick with my Burnley one for now though.

Mmm.. well to be honest the league rep is now 3 stars out of 5 instead of half a three star.. <laugh>

Some improvement I guess...

My current strongest St.Johnstone team with everyone fit :

Boruc(got on him a free. yes the ex-Celtic keeper & current Florentina keeper)
Kovacevic Gardner* Kim-Won Sik Del Horno*
Doran* Evans/Das Robertson Craig
Ameobi/Acosta* Brandy

*Yes the 6ft 5'' ex-Spurs/Hull man..
*Yes the ex-Chelsea LB...
*Doran.. promising youngster who got released by Blackburn..
*Acosta is a regen loanie who I got from Liverpool(as part of our partnership as parent club/feeder club)..

<ok> Should I take the Wigan job or stick wtih St.Jonhstone?

You'd be more proud if you had European success with St Johnstone but if you've taken them as far as they can go then Wigan.
 
Best career I've had with the Toon:

Stekelenberg
Srna - Samba - Kjaer - Enrique
Cabaye - Tiote - Hamsik
Sanchez - Benitez - Young

Forster
Saylor
Varane
Rodwell
Chamberlain
Kadlec
Neymar

Signed Neymar for massive fee but he's been ****e and Benitez scores soooo many gooooals. 2nd in Jan 13 at the mo after finishing 6th, then 4th. Most of original squad have been sold on as they were on big wages, only retaining those above, Gosling, Kadar and Shola (obvioulsy)

Stick to your roots, do a Cabaye. Win them the league and then fire off abroad.
