The first team battered every opponent in January and the Reserves wanted to prove that they are just as good, they pulled off a few demolition jobs as well!
First Samlar, Ross Gilchrist and Bmwdestroyer did the damage…
… and then Erick Wolf added himself to the scoresheet along whith an Erick Wolf double and a Bmwdestroyer hat-trick!
The last game of the month saw another impressive performance with Ross Gilchrist, Liam101 and Jimmy finding the back of the net.
The Under18s pulled off similar results, we’re dominating every competition! The first match saw both Bmwdestroyer and Jimmy achieving hat-tricks with Wilfred Von Karma and Billy also scoring…
… and the second saw Jimmy bagging a hat-trick again with Big O and Taylor091 scoring two apiece and Liam101 adding another goal to his tally.
And now brace yourselves for some news in pictures!
Club News
The board was persuaded to invest in our talented youngsters’ future, I was quite pleased with that.
Transfer News
First, some strange behavior from Jenko :) He requested to be transfer listed on January 6th…
… and then changed his mind two days later! Both requests were granted :)
Billy, you were listed for loan so I accepted the offer. However, I gave up on the fee so that I can recall you if needed.
Niller joins Bolton until the end of the season, I remember that you requested to be loaned out so I offered you to several clubs.
Arsenal‘s Bambini joins Newcastle on loan, I tried to buy you from the Gunners but they want too much money :)
Last but not least Samlar had a loan offer accepted but he refused to join Brighton.
Injury news
(I have selected only the important injuries, not every flu or food poisoning)

There you go folks, I hope that you enjoyed my first update. I’m here to listen to your requests so don’t be shy, post them in the comments!

Amazing Month All Round, With Results Like This It’ll Be Hard Not To Gain Promotion
Well Done

22 июня, 2011 at 17:37
Thanks Billy, I wasn’t expecting the team to play so well.
Nick
22 июня, 2011 at 17:42
Good results, if you don’t get promotion ill be amazed! :-D
btw, how am I doing at Huddersfield? Thanks!
Johnny Karp
22 июня, 2011 at 18:33
Thanks, I’d be quite amazed too. Now about you, things are going nicely at Huddersfield: 30 apps, 1 goal, 1 assist, 3 man of the match, average rating 7.36.
Nick
22 июня, 2011 at 18:43
Thanks, seems like I’m doing very nicely and it seems like going through the Man-U youth system and then getting first team football on loan is pretty good! Would like to go back to the Patriots as soon as possible though! :-D

22 июня, 2011 at 17:51
alright that’s one award in the bag already :D and lots more to come I’m sure ;)
AND one of your favourite players… AWESOME!!!!
On a serious note I looked pretty good, and am I playing at RB or RM?
jagginman
22 июня, 2011 at 17:52
edit: just seen that I am playing at right back.
Johnny Karp
22 июня, 2011 at 18:34
My first choice right back! :)
jagginman
22 июня, 2011 at 19:36
that’s what I like to hear ;)

Nice update Manager! The first team is playing very well. We should get promoted without problem! I want to see how the Patriots challenge the likes of Manchester United, Chelsea and Arsenal.
As for me… Only one game this month coming on as a substitute. I hope I perform as well as the previous months in the coming games.
Johnny Karp
22 июня, 2011 at 18:36
Yeah, I’m quite curious to see this team against the big boys. Now about your player, the potential is there but there still is a lot of work to be done in order to improve.
Sears
22 июня, 2011 at 19:25
Ha, go me :-)
Were scoring an incredible amount of goals, promotion is really inevitable. Well done Johnny Karp snr :-D
Johnny Karp
22 июня, 2011 at 21:00
Thanks Sears, you surely are a valuable player :)
Desmo Wenning
22 июня, 2011 at 19:31
Amazing month with a lot of high scores! I played 1 awesome match :D :D Hope I’ll continue with this!
Johnny Karp
22 июня, 2011 at 21:00
Yeah, it was quite a pleasing run :)
martinm
22 июня, 2011 at 19:33
Good first post with you in charge boss! How have you managed to get the best out of me, my best month in the first team by far :)
Great high scores in our games and we should seal our promotion soon :)
Can’t wait for the next update.
Johnny Karp
22 июня, 2011 at 21:01
Thanks Martin. I played you as a winger if I remember correctly and you did very well.

Hey Johnny
You are doing so great that you are a better manager than Excessive (Jake)! You win each match comprehensively. By the way, since when was I vice-captain? I was captain against Leeds.
Johnny Karp
22 июня, 2011 at 21:02
Thanks Vaibhav but credit must go to Jake since I didn’t change much in the tactics. I don’t know about the vice-captain thing.
Darren Smith
22 июня, 2011 at 19:39
You legend!! Look at those scorelines and you’ve certainly got the best out of me!! Promotion is a must and its cool to think we’ll be playing the top dogs next season. :)
Johnny Karp
22 июня, 2011 at 21:03
Well done Smith, I predict you’ll be a national team striker someday :)
Jenko
22 июня, 2011 at 20:25
I was drunk when that happened. You should give me more football though!
Johnny Karp
22 июня, 2011 at 21:03
You won’t see any first team football if you get drunk :P

Johnny Karp
22 июня, 2011 at 21:04
I miss Jake too :) You will surely get more chances to play, don’t worry.
Skip
22 июня, 2011 at 20:58
Really need some 1st team football gaffer, is a loan deal possible? Or has January already come and gone?
Skip
Johnny Karp
22 июня, 2011 at 21:04
January is over but the loan deadline is in March if I’m not mistaken so I will try to find a loan deal for you.
Ana Garcia
22 июня, 2011 at 21:50
LoL! I knew you would bring the best out of my fella!
I dont think he scored whan Jake was in charge and now he has two and counting!
He has also performed pretty well in every game so hopefully he can keep it up.
Johnny Karp
23 июня, 2011 at 07:50
Your fella did pretty well, he was a solid presence in midfield throughout the month. I think he had scored before though, I’ll have to check.
Johnny Karp
23 июня, 2011 at 09:54
You are right, those were the first two goals for Adam.
Excessive
23 июня, 2011 at 00:01
Haha, I suck :(
Well done Johnny mate, your really smashing up the Championship and managing the team really well. Keep up the good work :)
Johnny Karp
23 июня, 2011 at 07:51
No way, I used your tactics and your squad so credit must go to you for the results.
liam101
23 июня, 2011 at 05:04
great update johnny. Glad to see that i am scoring a lot and that all of the teams are dominating. I played my first game for the reserves. thanks for the oppotunitie.
Cant wait for the next one. i’m sure jake will be very happy with the results
Johnny Karp
23 июня, 2011 at 07:52
Thanks Liam. The assistant takes charge of the reserves and under18s games so you should thank him :)
CsAtlantis
23 июня, 2011 at 07:42
The team is performing well, how am I doing at St.Andrews? I am hoping that I don’t lose any stats from being tutored by Jiranek :P
Johnny Karp
23 июня, 2011 at 09:53
Thanks CS. You are in the reserves, listed for loan, but you did manage an appearance as a substitute in the Premier League.
joe lance
23 июня, 2011 at 08:46
Great form from the Patriots. Wondering how Darren didnt win player of the month. Good to see there’s quality all over squad, not only upfront.
How am I (joshy) doing at Liverpool though? Any first team appearances? Ratings? International appearances?
Johnny Karp
23 июня, 2011 at 09:51
Thanks Joe. You are currently in the reserves, listed for loan, but you did manage 14 apps for the first team with an average rating of 6.67. You have two caps for Nigeria, no goals.
Matt
23 июня, 2011 at 10:25
Wow! What an awesome first start I had! The match ball is takign pride of place on my mantlepiece! Well done Johnny! I think we’ll be promoted by mid-March.
Johnny Karp
23 июня, 2011 at 10:41
Thanks Matt, you did have a great game and I’ll be trying to give you more chances to play in the future.
nielsneutron
23 июня, 2011 at 17:34
Nice to get on a loan and to Bolton no less. I can’t possible get any first team experience there though. Oh well I like to travel about.
Johnny Karp
23 июня, 2011 at 18:07
There was another offer from a Danish club but I thought that the one from Bolton was better. If you don’t get too many chances there I’ll try to recall you from loan if that is alright with you.
nielsneutron
23 июня, 2011 at 18:22
What leagues is the game with anyway?
Na I guess the facilities is better overthere so I will give a chance and prove myself worthy.
Johnny Karp
24 июня, 2011 at 10:35
I don’t know about the leagues, I’ll have to check which ones Jake decided to load.

«Top work with the first team boss! Glad to see I have been doing well in the U-18s too! Keep it up and I’m sure we’ll be going up at the end of the season!»
:D
Johnny Karp
23 июня, 2011 at 18:08
Thanks Sibo, we’ll surely go up!
Sam Pettitt
23 июня, 2011 at 20:29
some awesomee results there!
good management i suppose! :)
Johnny Karp
24 июня, 2011 at 10:35
Thanks, we have great players!
Erick Wolf
24 июня, 2011 at 00:12
I’m glad to be the Reserve Team captain. If you find it necessary for my development to say there, I’ll be happy to play there until ready boss!
Johnny Karp
24 июня, 2011 at 10:36
The competition for a first team spot is fierce Erick, even the reserves spots are not too easy to get. So keep working hard and you’ll become a better footballer! :)
Wilfred Von Karma
25 июня, 2011 at 09:00
Hmm… Looks like I has a wonderful run with reserves and u18s. Getting 9.0 and more 3 times is not an easy feat… Great thing I have finally seen some matches without getting injured again and hope I will see the first team and Darren Smith,the new Pele, again soon enough. Boss, if you feel that I’m not good enough, you can loan me out but I don’t want to go anywhere lower than the championship. If I have to go overseas to be loaned, I want to go to a loaded league and no where lower than the top leagues there. Sounds a bit demanding but that’s what I think is beneficial for me.
Johnny Karp
25 июня, 2011 at 09:11
I think that you’re not too far away from a few first team games but I will list you for loan just in case a good offer comes along.
Wilfred Von Karma
25 июня, 2011 at 10:35
If I get in the first team then please delist me. I don’t want to get loaned out when I finally get back into the first team. Thanks. But keep me on the loan list for now. Thanks.
Johnny Karp
25 июня, 2011 at 10:43
OK.
Ross Gilchrist
27 июня, 2011 at 02:55
I scored 4 goals in 2 games for the reserves this month :) Not bad at all, any thoughts on my player? Oh and don’t sell me to Sunderland please, that would be a betrayal…..
