Bury FC: Season 8 Start, August — October.

Hi everyone, todays post will start season 8 as we look to defend our Premier League Crown. A lot of action happened in the summer regarding transfers, Adebayor and Ronaldo (two of my best players last season) were sold. However they were replaced with good players also, Kevin Lorenz and Dudu Cearense. Also I forgot to mention that Adebayor is an icon for the club! :D

Premier League Results

An excellent start by my players as we have only dropped two points. Nothing got more satisfying to me in the first game than seeing both my new strikers scoring. We then played Liverpool, and we could have dropped points if it wasn’t a late winner by Alex in the 92nd(!) minute! Best result in the league so far… As you can see the fixture list is pretty easy and if we dropped any more points, then it would have been very dissapointing.

It’s been a terrible campaign so far regarding injuries. Araujo, Pedro, Quimbamba have all suffered from 4/5 week injuries. Notice Araujo not scoring much? Kusters and Hector Alvarez have also been injured for 3 weeks. However it didn’t stop us from winning our matches :D

With the excellent start, you could almost imagine what the table would look like, Bury run away leaders…

But it’s completely different! Yes we are top but Man City have 2 games in hand on us. We also have a game in hand on Arsenal. Man City play us next at Gigg Lane, what an important match that is! The fact that City have only conceded 1 goal in 7 games show that they are a title winning team. The first time in my save they are actually doing this good. Maybe because they signed Pastore for 46m in the summer?

Champions League:

Barcelona beat us as expected. Then we drew to Udinese when we really should have won. I didn’t expect to beat Shakhtar as easily we did, so I’m sure we will qualify for the knockouts. Udinese and Shakhtar aren’t great.

The last competition to report is the League cup where we have reached the quarter finals. Hopefully we can go onto win the competition that we won two seasons ago. :D

Anyway, Thanks for reading!
