Sunderland on a spending spree in new league... pretty much all players I had earmarked as targets too(Nasri, McCarthy, Markovic a while back and another one)
He's bid for 4 players in my shortlist!

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik and Imran are here to talk about a frustrating 2 points dropped at Crystal Palace. They then discuss the regeneration of Old Trafford. Finally, Nik is joined by special guest Michael Statham from the Football Oranje podcast - who gives us a more in depth look at our EL opposition FC Twente, and then runs through the (many) Dutch connections currently at United.

I need a fecking kick on my ass. Saw the Ox bid, thought I'd bid once the Jedvaj sale went through and then totally forgot about SM. feck sakes.

The squad needed revamping, to be honest I'm amazed at how little competition I've had for some of the players I've signed. Over the last week I've signed Flanagan, Icardi, Bebe, Nasri, Ox and McCarthy, with Rode, Jorginho and Balotelli on the way today. Hopefully more to come over the next few days as well, though the rule about not signing too many players from one club is blocking a couple of moves I wanted to make.
Another injury. Falcao out for 9 days. 1-1 draw against Chelski. Not bad at all
First time ever...
Nottingham Forest are top of Division 1!!!

Beat Liverpool 1-0, with some of my key players rested. Happy days.
1-0 win in new league... 3-0 loss in old league... think I need to start preparing for life in Division 2
Extremely poor result.
This season so far is nuts. It's so competitive and all of the "big clubs" are under performing except Tottenham.
Bolton who after the first 5 games was 20th, is not 5th after 10.

I forgot to rest my team though, so most of my squad is dead for match vs you.This season so far is nuts. It's so competitive and all of the "big clubs" are under performing except Tottenham.

Superb! Mine are all fit and ready!
Forgot to change my team around from the cup loss to Watford. Not a bad result to come back against City and win 2-1

What can I say, it's down to the manager?
No idea what is going on with City this season. Becoming a joke really, can't even beat Boltons cup side...Jesus. That said, still only 5 points off the top which is crazy given how bad we've been.
Sunderland won 2-0, and completed the day by bringing in Tom Thorpe, Moussa Dembele (child one) and Muamer Tankovic, which means 7 players arrived on a very busy day at the Stadium of Light. Congratulations to James McCarthy for announcing himself to the Sunderland fans with a goal on debut.

Damo Moyes has been very quiet this season.
Give us a wave @Damien
*please note: I am sure you'll finish above me by the end of the season, so let me gloat while I can!

Have you got your excuses book ready?
Nah, Vidic takes full responsibility for us being where we are this season.
He's not doing me much good either.
You're in a transition period! To be fair, you have some great young players, just need to be patient and wait for the rises.
Sunderland have way too much money
Signed Iturraspe and have a bid accepted for Willian. Hopefully the former will get a rise to 90.
Willian is a great signing, can't believe I missed him.
1-0 win over West Ham, extending my lead at the top to 7 points Good stuff. Was worried about today's game.
Good stuff. Was worried about today's game.2-1 win over Wolves.
3-3 draw with mk dons fml
Could be worse, I drew 3-3 with Tottenham when he fielded 5 87 rated players and 1 86 rated player. Sigh.
Sat back and played counter attack. The strength up top saw me through.
You went 3-0 up because your players kept diving round my box and scoring from free kicks. Leno had a 5 rating!
Slightly changed my tactics, and paid the price for it.
Yet, somehow I'm out of the dropzone!
We should of bleeding won to after going 3-1 up in the 75th min.
Beat bolton 2-0. But now hamsik out for 3 games after a sending off ffs.
Mighty Reading top of the league woo hoo
*Insert sad comment about West Ham having too much money here*
I have more than 50m and no idea what to do with it. So if someone's looking to sell a good U25 striker or defender let me know.
I've just under 5 million.
Champions! Beat Zenit 4-3 to top my CL group.
Whew. 4-3 win to qualify. Ended up topping the group too.
I won as well pity i lost most of the other matches.
Won also. Topped the group. Lovely.
