So we missed out on the playoffs on goal difference? :mad:

Oh well. Might have been too early anyway. We just got promoted after all.

Jesus Christ on a Bike. Back to back promotions and not a @Big Andy in sight.

Muslimovic and Pletikosa were right signings there :D

I need to lay down I think, that’s far too much excitement for me today

He was amazing, can definitely thank him for the promotion

Another season of fun, cheers again @maniak

Random swedes are the best on CM. With that name is he a regen of the original Zlatan?
 
Finallyyyyy :D

thought after the playoff heartbreak last season we’d be throwing in the towel for a while, but Ian Armstrong leads us up! Hope we reinforce a bit over the summer:nervous:

Wait, what? :eek: We won the playoffs? That's unpossible.
Did @Hephaestus do a very non @Hephaestus thing there and actually win the playoffs?
It's a miracle. :eek:
First player to get to the prem using only academy players as well.
:lol:
:eek:
 
That's not too bad at all seeing as we sold some of our best players and bought absolutely feckin nobody. The board need to get the cheque book out now. I've no idea what they're waiting for. We must have a billion in the bank now. It's a crying shame as the manager's been playing a blinder.

I Big Andy’d it in the playoffs again. Starting to think I’ll never get out of this league.

thanks @maniak for this again. I do enjoy the abject disappointment, and now it’s longer between crashing blows as well so I can really stretch it out.

What was the commentary when two @Hephaestus players got injured at the same time? :lol:
 
Wow!!!! That’s the biggest shock I’ve had since this experiment started. After the massive disappointment of last season, I wasn’t expecting anything at all this season. Cue my utter bemusement when I wasn’t in the first two spoilers. Thought I’d missed an update and been relegated.

Top work still @maniak. It’s much appreciated and I actually quite like this full season update in one go.

Onwards and upwards. UTFMKSK

I checked bad sadly it wasn't anything comical, one player was tackled and an unrelated player twisted his ankle in the same minute. I was expecting a circus number with two players bumping into each other, but no such luck.
 
Can't wait to smash the Premier league up. All this from that massive spending spree when we were languishing at the bottom of league one last season. Very pleased with Optimised FC.

@maniak love this thread and everything you do. So much fun reading it all

That's anticlimatic, I'd also assumed that it was a mid-air collision or something. Guess it was just fate so the hero that is Titus Bramble could come on and win it for his boyhood team.
 
A season of consolidation after promotion is fine, but I expect is to push further next season.
