So let me get this straight - you lost to Sheffield United, in a play-off final, at Wembley. A play-off final is not something that Sheffield United win. NOTTS-JOE OUT! Nah seriously I know what you mean mate this game is pretty addictive. I dont actually have football manager myself, but I've played it quite a bit on my mates IPad. I've done a few carrers on it. I started one with Glasgow Rangers, but I got a bit fed up of winning 7-2 in the third division every week so I restarted with Leicester City, but got sacked in November So I started again, this time with Notts. I kept the bulk of the squad we had already, but I brought in Paddy Madden from Yeovil Town and signed a young right back from Crewe (whatever his name was). Judgey wanted to leave but no offers actually came in, and come January I managed to persuade him to sign a SIX year deal! We lost the JPT final to Swindon but ended up going up. The top 4 were pretty close. With 3 games to go we were top on GD ahead of Coventry, with sheffield united in 3rd an someone else 4th. We played Coventry away, and despite going 1-0 up during the second half we lost 2-1. We then only managed a 1-1 draw in our penoltimate game meaning we had to win our last game and hope the blades slipped up. We won 2-0 against Oldham, while United lost 5-4 to Scunthorpe. The Champaigne corks popped - Notts were into the championship! Gee, wrote quite a bit more than I wanted to here haha. It's amazing how addictive these games can get!
