I decided to start a league as Colchester after being
them round a friends house. I had no money and only a
few decent players e.g Mark Sale, Joe Dunne, David
Greene and Paul Newell. With little money I managed to
make 3 free transfer signings, David Whyte, Emmanuel
Ommoyimni and Peter Shearer.
In the first season I won the league by two points and
Mark Sale became top scorer with around 37 goals. I
reached the final of the Auto Winderscreen but was
beaten by high flying Wrexham 3-1.
Reaching the 2nd division I knew I had to sign a few
players so I signed Nigerian international Ohen to
replace Whyte and some Japenese player at Left back.
The season went really quick with my league
performances excellent, but my cup form enough to be
compared with Taribo West's hairstyle being knocked
out of every cup. I end up finish 2nd in the league
and going up to div 1.
In the pre season I signed two new players Godwin
Okpara and fake star Costas Sergi, Spanish Left
winger. My season started off well and by christmas I
was 6th. Soon my form slumped and by the end of
January I was 15th.
A few weeks later I was offered a job at Darlington,
23rd in div 3. I felt I needed a change so took the
job. I brought Darlington from 23rd to 14th. Soon
after I signed fake striker William Howells who soon
became best striker in div 3 and Micheal Branch on
loan from Everton. My team went from 15th to 3rd with
a month, unbeaten. Little did I know my luck was about
to change when Everton called back Micheal Branch. I
tried to sign him permantley but I couldn't afford
him. So I signed some Bulgarian AM/FL but he did
nothing and in that season I lost the play-off final
to Kidderminster who I had beaten handsomely twice in
the year.
The following season I did poor and got sacked! This
just proves that on computer games one player can make
a team.
