My Managerial Escapades

Alright, since other blogs have recently been starting new games (Blog FM, Footygamer) and updating their readers when they’re supposed to be paying attention in class I’d thought I’d update everyone on a game I started last weekend.

After a managerial coup at York City, the board have announced Rangers Forever as their newest manager. With little experience managing and having only ever played semi-professionally, the York City fans doubt their manager has what it takes to take York City out of the Lower League wilderness and into the Football League where it rightfully belongs.

Some historical facts:
Relegated from League Two in 2002.
Have been flip-flopping between League Two and One for most of its history
Reached the Championship for 2 in 1975/76.

Why I picked them:

They have a cool nickname: the Minstermen (named such becuase their stadium is in sight of York Minster)
Cool Stadium: Bootham Crescent (although they will move into the blandly named York Community Stadium in 2013).
Good squad that has a lot of potential to take it to League 2 and above.

Basically, that’s it. Just looking to have a fun lower league game without having to suffer for hours and hours at a crappy Conference North/South team only to have them lose a lot and fail in the lowest playable league in the game.

Will introduce the squad and the first games this weekend! Until then, I’ll be writing paper and studying for exams!
