I haven't played a competitive match after being promoted as yet, but have vastly improved my squad in the offseason.  The season starts in about a week so I will let you know soon.

I know that when I played friendlies with teams from the above division when in the beginner league, I struggled a bit, but i'm a much better side now.

I'm just about half way through my 1st season but looks like I'll need to win most if not all my remainding games to get promoted. Not particularly bothered as I'm gradually noticing improvements in my squad. I've only actually bought 2 players. I was overloaded with defenders so sold 2 of them and bought an extra mid and att to give my team a few more options.

I'm two games into my first season. Won both quite comfortably, and haven't conceded yet. When do you start making a bit of cash? I need another left back and a new goalie as both of mine have really low potential and I don't want to waste too many training cards on them.

Still struggling in the online games, although they look like they're improving, and just not getting the results their performance deserves. Damn I sound like Moyes now!

To be honest I walked the first season and won every game bar one, which I drew.  Just about to start season two's league after a long off season of friendlies.  Your cash goes up when you move up from unknowns to local heroes.

Just had a belting first game of the season in the Advanced League!

Played Manic Albion and....My God...what a dirty team they are.  They must have fouled me at least 10 times, had 3 yellow cards and injured one of my players for 6 weeks!  In contrast I didn't foul them once!

They took the lead and then I equalised with a great goal.  I was resting my star man Saunders and my best forward as they were on yellow fatigue.  Then they scored a speculative effort from about the half way line so I chucked on the big guns with about 19 mins left and went for a more attacking field position and with the last kick of the game my sub smashed home the equaliser!

It was a good result all in all as they did very well in the league last year.  I feel that I can hold my own in this league, but feel that promotion will be a bit beyond me this time.

2nd season and I've won the beginner league with 3 games to spare. Played 7, won 7, scored 24, conceded 0. Just busy finishing the season and doing more training in preparation for the step up.

I'm playing my second season in the Advance league and it's pretty tough.  So far I've Won 1, Drawn 3, Lost 1.  Things haven't been helped by my star midfielder (Saunders) being injured early in the season!  He's back soon, but I'm 5 points off the pace so am just looking to consolidate in this league for a season.  If I went up then I'd not be good enough and would come straight back down again.

I'm loving how my tactics can swing games as I'm sure I should have lost some of the draws I've managed (the odds were certainly against me at the start).  The last game I played a containing first half and came in 1 goal down at half time.  I switched to all attack in the second half and used all 3 subs around 60 mins.  Managed to bag the equaliser and hold on for a good draw.

Luckily the bottom team has no points yet so I'm 6 points from relegation.  I'm currently 4th, but feel that I could manage 3rd with a bit of luck.

I've noticed a good improvement in my team when playing top tier teams. I played Rex united who previously beat me 6-0 but 2nd time round it was only 2-0 so getting there

So Saunders came back in a bitterly fought game against the bottom side.  He struggled to find his pre injury form and we were trailing 1-0 and down to 10 men with 2 others in yellows.  I switched to a 3-3-3 formation and managed to pull a draw from it.

Then we played the top side and I went 4-5-1 on defensive and we came in at half time at 2-2.  Saunders was playing a blinder so I pushed up the field and moved to balanced in the second half and my man Saunders just ran the show from there on.

He scored a blinding goal from the right wing to make it 3-2 and then set up the 4th after cutting in from the right and playing the perfect ball to my Messina.  Up to 3rd now and that puts any fear of relegation behind me .

CAS FAN

Yeah you can really feel the improvements made and it's a sweet feeling when you set it up just right.  Must admit that I really love this game and have already out 20 hours into it.  Can see me getting a good 100 hours out of this.  Bargain!
