Thanks to all returning Managers!
and a big Welcome to all the new Managers!

Hello all again for a new season - good luck to you all, and welcome any managers new to the forum...

Before we start, here's some questions for you:

What have you learned from last season?

There is such a thing as not being defensive or attacking, and still getting a result... Normal mentality rules!!

Where did you place last season?

Palace Casuals - 4th in League, Top-16 Round in Champions League and Preliminary Round in Cup.
Palace Terriers - 5th in League, Champions League Winners and Top-16 Round in Cup.
Desert Rats FC - 3rd in League, dnq for Champions League and Winners of Cup.

What's your current level?

Palace Casuals, Level 26; Palace Terriers, Level 4; Desert Rats FC, Level 3.

What's your budget for this season?

Whatever's in cash fund, Palace Casuals may get a Token injection for player purchase, the other two teams are 35T.

Who do you want to replace?

Palace Casuals definitely need a DC/DL as one of them is a 2*, and there are a few low Q 3* players that will be replaced when suitable replacements come up.
Palace Terriers requirements include a DC/DL and a couple of STs to replace the 2* players. The 3* players are fairly high Q so will star up early in the season.
Desert Rats have a veritable shopping list, depending on how soon the high Q 2* players star up. They definitely need defensive replacements as a DC/DMC, a DC and a DR, all low Q 2* players, will not cut it at this level.

What are your goals for this season?

All teams need to place well, preferably top 4 in the League, and progress as far as possible in the knockout competitions. Pressure will be on Palace Casuals as the senior team as they haven't won anything for a couple of seasons.

Good luck to everybody this Season!
