7 points off the top, CL football and Wanner in the top rating charts isn't a bad first season for Sergio. Relatively happy despite the drop off and my boy Rose doing the domestic treble. :lol:

We’ve got CL football for next season which is a big plus, especially for the budget. We have big things to come from the mighty Bolton. Cracking foundation you’ve laid down.

@BD and @sebsheep what an achievement! Absolutely brilliant.

Thanks peeps.
Who would've thought a revenge mission against Arsenal and leaving @BD alone with cash for 10 minutes could yield such a result :lol:

You’ve slightly redeemed yourselves after paying £70m for Thomas Frank.

In many ways, that was key. If we hadn't have done that, then we probably would've thought 50m on Rose was wild and not gone near him.

Right where were we?

Little bit busy today and I've been booked onto workshops Tues/Weds so it depends if they're quite hands on or if I can just turn my camera off and listen. I've seen some of the DMs so will get to those this afternoon.

I have granted you all 500m to use on whatever you like *cough stadium* but if you want to ditch that and spend it on players/wages that's up to you.

I also think we'll aim for 15 seasons. If nobody has won the CL by then we'll go until at least one of you wins it.

Season 11 start

----------------------------------------------

And we are back! Let's begin with some manager news:



Pep's had a few sackings recently and that has put him in range of all of you, but only Derby looked at managers and now they have their man!

Now let's see what our owners did in the transfer market.

Owner Transfers

@BD & @sebsheep won the Premier League last season and have decided to shore up the GK dept. They spent £108.5m on 24yo Kim Christian Hoyenhall, who they have scouted multiple times.

@altodevil and Sunderland will be in the Europa this season, and to make sure that never happens again he's spent £203.5m on Gavi!

@The Cat & @sebsheep are turning up to the party with Alto's ex. Because they're arm in arm with £279.5m Lamine Yamal :nervous:

@SilentWitness and new life partner @simonhch have gone for Sam Seiliearts-Leask. I will abbreviate the £172m man to SSL in future because feck that name.

Some big stadium boosts. Sheffield Utd now play at the 56k Stade de Frank, named after their most expensive manager. Sunderland now call the 50k Jeston Memorial Ground home. Derby aren't sure on the name for their 43k stadium yet, and Bolton have a 45k Big Sam Arena.
