Harrogate Town On The Rise

[iamdjw]

Hi guys I am managing the up and coming rising star team of Harrogate town. We are a level 2 team and even though best rated team in the league only sit in 2nd in the league.

I am still in the Champions League having just won 0-7 and 7-0. The 2nd league was my 1st time playing 4-5-1V. Worked very well. Giving my new signing 19yr old Cristiano Ronaldo his debut for me.

We were knocked out of the Cup in the Qualifying round by a team who is level 11 and has a quality of 64.4. I wasn't to bothered by this as it meant I didn't end up fighting for 3 competitions.



Ronaldo is only a 4 star player though so he may not be with me long. But he will do for a season or 2. Took me forever to find a AMR to buy.

Any advice welcome and I hope my season keeps going well. Got my home match against the team at top of the league. Hope to get the win and go on to win the league.

Chances of beating a level 11 team as a level 2 team is never good.

Also since you're in the champions league and league, you have to constantly need to change formations every game depending on your opponent's formation. Thus use the Table of Counter Formations as your guide. This also means that you will need one play for each possible position. Any player with two or three position is a gigantic bonus.

Other than that, you're off to a great start mate.

Hi guys thanks for the replies. I have just started changing formations especially now in getting a squad with all positions assembled. I was originally sticking with the 4-1(dmc)-3(N)-2 . This had worked well but I knew I would to counter my opponents soon as we're getting to the business end of the CL.

With your players I would play 3-1-2-2-2, anyway nice team and good luck.

Imagine if Harrogate Town had players like that IRL... lolol

Good team though, plenty of 6* in your squad.

Ok guys sorry I didn't do any updates last season. Was focusing on a few things and forgot about it.

Season 3 Level 3 was a good season. The cup went better than expected we nearly made it to the knockout rounds but fell at the final hurdle.

We had a shock going out in the quarter finals of the CL and a bigger shock came when the runners up of my group stage actually won the competition.

The league on the other hand was amazing. We managed to capture the rare 26-0-0 record and even though we had a few scares we always found a way to come back and win.

Konrad Giel finished as the leagues top scorer by 4 goals after a season long battle for the golden boot with Ian Blackstone.

Blackstone took the MVP and top passer awards.

I will be much more active this season with updates.

Along with Harrogate Town I may use this thread to give updates on the Forum league team. They are the newly founded Harrogate FC.

Going to the start of this season. Harrogate Town made it through the first round of the cup on away goals 3-3.

Harrogate FC went through in there Newbie Cup aswell winning 2-1

It would be awesome if Harrogate had this squad in real life. Thanks for the tips guys. I just drew today 1-1 so may have just thrown away the title but still plenty of time hopefully i will beat the leaders tomorrow and bring myself back into it.

So today we played against FRT Tanlay. It was at there ground and I was confident of a win. Maybe a little to confident.

We were down 1-0 pretty early on, a change of formation and bringing on the awesome Bale and Ronaldo out wide we managed a 1-1 draw in the end. Disappointed that we didnt win but thats life.

Tomorrow we play the league leaders at our ground so I am really hoping I get the victory I need. This will bring us 2 points behind them and hopefully we shall manage to get the results I crave to win the league in the end.

We also have the 1st leg of our Champions League Quarter-Final tomorrow. This is away and so I am hoping for the same as the last round. A nice away win so we can be comfortable at home and just play for fun.
