    First Win!

    The Management got stuck in a traffic jam so couldn't attend the Cup 2nd Leg match this morning, but he needn't have worried as the team produced a superb performance to qualify for the next Round. The defensive woes that befell them yesterday were not apparent as debutant Allan Lunan helped keep a clean sheet, and left-winger Akim Todd and right-back and MoM Jack Lamb scored to seal a 2-0 win and tie aggregate of 3-1.

    Build, build, build


    Later on in the morning, the Seating Upgrade finished, giving the Holmesdale Stadium a 600 capacity. Next to be built was a much-needed Utility facility, Portable Toilets. These cost $3k (down from $4k) and will take 4 hours (instead of 3 days) to build.

    More Transfer Activity.

    The Management visited the Transfer Market, and seeing a useful tri-role defender, joined the list of bidders, and also put a bid in on another, lower-Quality, two-role defender in the same market, as a backup in case of losing the first auction. In the event, both auctions were won, and both players have joined the squad. As a result, the final two retiring players, defender Vitaly Frank and midfielder Andy Gratton, were sacked in order to reduce player wage costs.
