Hi everyone, welcome back to my Bury story. I know you were familiar with three/two month updates, but too much addictedness made me play more! I’m going to show you the Premier League results in two parts, August — October and November — December.
Premier League Results
August — October
So not the greatest start to the campaign that had me very worried of retaining out European place again. It was a good start to the season and Pedro scored his first goal at the club. Then a dissapointing draw at West Brom which followed by two defeats. Things got back to winning ways as Pedersen scored a late winner. We then only experienced one more victory in this period against Blackburn.
Why the bad start?
So why exactly did we start the season badly? I firmly believe the next screenshot was our main problem. INJURIES! Yes, INJURIES!
The whole spine of the team was out injured! Adebayor missed the whole of pre-season and then came back and got injured in a reserve game again! So he didn’t play a single game in the first period of games.
Micah Richards — Most reliable defender
Mathias Pedersen — Consistent defender
Petr Lastuvka — Assist Machine
Ronaldo — Main Midfielder
Emmanuel Adebayor — Goal Machine.
Yes, so without all of these players, it was very difficult for us :( And the tough schedule didn’t make it any easier.
November & December
Then, this happened!
Adebayor scored in his first game back. Young striker Jose Luis Guttierez scored a hat-trick in the following game! Then we smashed Villa! Which lead to series of won games! We had to play soo many games in December, it was so so annoying.
League Table
Bury sit in 7th place. The league table is very open from 2-7, 3 points seperating them. Defense is much better winning this season also!
WHO IS JOSE LUIS GUTIERREZ???
League Cup Results
League cup campaign has been pretty easy for us this season. We will play Newcastle in the semi-finals, much easier than two seasons ago where we faced Chelsea.
Europa League
We finished top of our group:
This is how we did it and we will play Stade Rennais in the first knockout round, a game we should really be winnings :D
During our excellent winning run we broke our record for won games in a row:
Oh yeah, I was offered the Villa job, but I rejected :D:
Player Ratings:
OMG! Emmanuel Adebayor is at the bottom of that list. He has been out most of the season with injury. My defenders Ze Carlos & Mathias Pedersen are excellent. Roberto Beltrame has done a great job while covering for Mathias Pedersen.
January Transfer Window
A lot teams are interested in my players. Everton have been taken over by a tycoon and they have declared interest in Ronaldo. Chelsea keep declaring interest in Micah Richards and he has also asked for a transfer through private chat. I told him ‘I believe this club can grow….» and he accepted that. As did Emmanuel Adebayor as Milan want him. Lyon have declared interest in Ze Carlos sooo many times! Fahri Aytac is wanted by Lyon.
Anyway, thanks for reading!

That was a great revival Sayam. After a bad start, your stars returning made for some fantastic form. I believe you can maintain that and still hold hope for the top four. I just hope none of your key players have t be sold. :( Gutierrez looks incredible btw…he could develop into a top class striker!!

Thanks Darren, I’m not going to accept any offers unless they are crazy. And unless the chairman takes it out of my hand :D

Hey Sayam,
I thought that this post was going to be depressing after the first set of results, but then you managed a great period where you kept on winning! I hope you can get into the top 4 and get into the Champions League, as you mentioned it is wide open from 2nd to 7th. Gutierrez looks brilliant, he could become a key player in a few years time.

Hey Sayam
I hope you can win the Europa League and get into the Champions League as well. That was a great run of form since Adebayor came back from injury.

So far so good Sayam, you did well to recover after that poor start and also did a great job to finish top of the Europa League group. You have a great chance of reaching the Carling Cup final, fingers crossed for that!

Hi Sayam
Once those injuries cleard up you really started to hit some form. I can see why you carried on in the game, it’s going so well I’d be addicted too at this stage :) Great job in Europe and I predict you will win the League Cup :)

If it warn’t for those bloody injuries you could be challenging for the title!! You’re doing superb despite the fact that Adeboyar isn’t scoring as freely as he was last season. I’m sure you can finish in the top 4!
Btw, what corner routine are you using?
Sayam Khan
25 апреля, 2011 at 13:12
Thanks Sears.
I’ll show my corner routine in my next post ;-)

Hi Sayam,
The injuries had made things difficult for you but you did pretty well after winning lots of games and just suffered one defeat. You should be able to retain your Europa position if everyone stay injury free. Good luck.

You’ve overcome your injury problems Sayam, your team should do better in the second half of the season with all your important players fit and raring to go :D
You should be able to qualify for Europe, good luck in the Europa League against Rennais

Well done Sayam! You hit a great run of form and I think you will make a top four finish at least this season, but if you keep that up you will be challenging for the title!
Stunning performance in Europe and I’m sure you will be Stade Rennais quite comfortably!
Finally, well done in the League Cup, you will beat Newcastle and I’m sure you can win the whole thing too!
Well done and Good luck! :D

Thanks Sibo, I think you are underestimating Stade Rennais, they have a decent team to be honest.

Not bad considering all the injuries Sayam, and that brilliant recent form should be a springboard for the rest of the season. Now that your players are back I reckon you can make it into the top 4, especially if Guiterrez can keep scoring. Good luck!
