FM: Belluno....Getting out of Debt

[kingfc22]

Welcome to the 2nd season of my Belluno dynasty. Belluno is a small club in Italy's Serie C2/A.

Year one can be found here. (http://dynamic2.gamespy.com/%7Efof/forums/showthread.php?t=36403)

Last season we finished 11th as we went 11-11-12.

Going into this season, my biggest concern is righting the financial situation of the club. As it sits right now, we are $681K in the red.

My goal is to search the TL for free transfers of high value players and then turn around and sell them for profit. The way I have been playing is only guys that are on the TL or players that my scout has seen in action are the ones I go after.

June 19, 2005

I have a talk with Padrin and he tells me that the board is tightening their wallets this season. I'm told that my transfer budget is $73,366.

I do receive some good news in regards to our sponsorship deal. We ink a new deal with a couple of the local companies and they agree to pay us $128K each of the next two seasons.

Alberto Giuliatto, who was co-owned with Treviso saw his contract come to an end. I made a bid of $10K and I won. He is now a full member of the Belluno squad.

Asst. Manager Giacomin is 52. He likes to play 4-4-2 and loves the attacking style of play. He is terrific working with youngsters, but is only average when it comes to judging talent.

Coach Sommacal is 47. He also prefers the 4-4-2, but his mentality is to be adventurous. He is weak in every category and I want to replace him, but I do not have the funds to pay him off and then hire a replacement.

Coach Lenisa is 45. He will be our GK coach. He is a 4-4-2 guy who likes to play an attacking style. He will also be key to evaluating talent.

Coach Caser is 53. He will be our outfield coach. He also likes to play the 4-4-2, but he has told me that he would prefer to sit back. He is a good motivator as well.

Are physios are both good at their jobs. Stracuzzi is 29 and Pescosta is 43.

Graziano is our lone scout at the moment. He is 54 and he works well with youngsters. He is above average at judging ability but not so good at judging potential.

KEY U-20 PLAYERS

He has already been given a leave of absence and since he has returned he now tells me that he dislikes me. http://dynamic2.gamespy.com/%7Efof/forums/images/smilies/frown.gif I offer him to clubs, but have not gotten any response so he is stuck playing for me for now. He was transfered for $0 from Maritsa on 1/4/05.

Value - $44k

Value - $2k

(AM C) Marco Amoroso - 18 yo. who just graduated from our youth academy. He is the better of the two brothers right now. He is physically gifted and he plays with a flair that I love.

Value - $24k

(S C) Ivan Piscane - 20 yo. who needs to find first team football. I like him a lot and I don't want to sell him yet. I'm trying to loan him out at the moment so he can develop. He scored 8 goals last season on the U-20 squad. He may see some time with the first team.

8' - Amoroso wins the ball around midfield and sends it to Fuzik. He makes a nice read and finds Nodari on a run and hits him in stride. Nodari makes a nice touch and puts the ball past the keeper and into the net. That's his first goal for the club.
GOOOAAAALLLLLLL Belluno!!!!

20' - Tormen begins the season where he left off last year. Legnano create a good chance with a nice 2-man game, but Tormen comes up big with the save and the rebound is cleared by Ferraro.

We go to the half with a one goal lead. And I'm not to comfortable with that fact seeing our history with leads has not been that good. We have been outshot 3-10 and Legnano have 60% possession.

62' - I bring on De Bortoli for Carnelossi and switch to a 4-1-3-2 formation that I was working on during our friendlies.

77' - Sekoranja and Sessolo come on for Nodari and Fuzik.

79' - Somehow we get beat on a long ball and Caputo gets behind the defense. He takes the shot earlier than expected and it sails harmlessly over the bar.

The whistle blows and we get a hard fought 1-0 win on the road.

Shots: Belluno 8 - 18 Legnano
Sot: Belluno 5 - 4 Legnano
Corners: Belluno 1 - 4 Legnano
Fouls: Belluno 21 - 6 Legnano

MoM: Daniele Tormen (8) His first of the season; 8th of career.

Postgame Notes:


Sandri, Ferraro and Amoroso all receive 8's for their efforts.
Sandri was 6/6 on headers and had 8 interceptions.
YELLOW CARDS: Mela, Giuliatto, Carnelossi
We ended the game with 51% which means we dominated the ball in the 2nd half.

August 26, 2005

We currently have no U-20 goalkeeper, so I offer to co-own Samuele Tramontano. He's a 18 yo. for Pro Sesto's U-20 team. They accept my $2k bid and I offer Samuele $220/wk.

European Super Cup
Chelsea score an early goal and hold on to defeat Real Madrid 1-0 in front of 19,000 fans.


August 27, 2005

Pisacane is going to be on loan for the rest of the season with Rovigo.

I get an offer for Sessolo worth $80k from Lodigiani. He's only worth $20k, but I try to press my luck and counter with $100k.


August 30, 2005

I offer a one week trial to (AM R) Alessio Carteni. My scout and I agree this guy is a stud and during his week with the club I'm going to convince him to join Belluno. *fingers crossed*

I go with my 3-5-2, but I may switch to a 4-1-3-2.
***For those that have not been following. I run a 3-5-2 with 3 DC, the two outside guys have arrows toward the sidelines, 1 DM, 1 ML and 1MR with arrows downfield, 1 MC, 1 AM and 2 SC***

2' - Tormen is forced to make a big save early as their forward received a pass it what looked to be an offside position.

45' - Siniscalchi sends a nice ball into our six and Colombo is able to create enough space for himself to get a good shot off and it beats Tormen.

The half ends and we trail 0-1. We have 3 shots to Como's 5, but we have 52% possession.

I put in Davide in for Giuliatto at the half.

54' - Kabine sends a free kick into the box for Nodari, but he is fouled. PENALTY!! Sekoranja steps up to take the shot and he calmly buries it into the net.
GOOOAAAALLLLLLL Belluno!!!!

58' - Pieraccini gives Como the lead right back as he breaks past our defensive line.

62' - I look to go offensive with my subs. Makaveev and Fuzik come on and Kabine and Sestu come off.

88' - Sekoranja rips a shot from the top of the box, but Lamacchia is there to tip it over.

The game ends in a 1-2 defeat.

Shots: Belluno 7 - 10 Como
Sot: Belluno 3 - 5 Como

Fouls: Belluno 8 - 16 Como

Makaveev has two shots early, but both sail wide.

18' - A two-on-one is stopped by Tormen!!!

33' - Ramsbacher unleashes a shot from 30 yds. out and I think Tormen was caught napping because it found the net and he barely moved.

40' - Le Noci gets a good chance and he also finds the net. We are now down by two. Rigo is forced to come out and De Bortoli enters.

44' - My 2nd sub before half is forced by injury to D. Amoroso. Carnelossi goes in as the replacement.

A rough first half finds us down by two goals and with only 1 sub left. We've been outshot 3-7 even though we hve 53% possession.

48' - Makaveev with another chance.....but it's wide.

58' - Solagna received a free kick from Carnelossi right in the middle of the box unmarked and he shot it right at the keeper. Aim for the corners son.

71' - Carnelossi gets into the act as he misses the net all together on a chance. Kabine enters for Makaveev.

82' - Ferraro makes a horrid pass in our own end and it leads to another goal for Alto Adige.

90' - Carnelossi makes his way down the left side and spots Kabine in the area. His cross finds Kabine and we actually get a shot on net and it goes in too.
GOOOAAAALLLLLLL Belluno!!!!

The game ends and we find ourselves in a hole in the Serie C Cup.

Shots: Belluno 13 - 17 Alto Adige
Sot: Belluno 3 - 8 Alto Adige
Corners: Belluno 2 - 2 Alto Adige

Postgame Notes:


Two games in two days is retarded. My guys are beat up literally.
Nobody earned an 8 today. Makaveev had 5 shots, but none were on target. Looks like we need some more practice.
YELLOW CARDS: Ferraro and Carteni
INJURY NEWS: Daniele Amoroso will miss a month with a torn groin muscle.

September 7, 2005 - Serie C Cup (Group A)

Venue: Polisportivo, Belluno
Weather: Dry, 66 F
Attendence: 2633
Odds: Pro Patria (4-6) FAV
Referee: Paolo Dondarini

Series: Belluno 0-0-0 vs. Pro Patria
Season: Belluno 0-0-0 vs. Pro Patria

Pregame Notes:


Both teams only have 4 points in group play and the only chance either team has of making the next round is with a big win.
Pro Patria is a Serie C1/A team. They finished last season in 7th place with a G.D. of +11.
They come out with what I'm now going to call the Italy formation. (4-4-2 attacking)
They lost to Como 1-3 and 0-1 to Alto Adige.
We are without the services of Samuel Fuzik as he is away on international duty with Slovakia. He's looking for his 1st cap.
I give a bunch of players some rest as I'm looking forward to our league opener in 4 days.

19' - Abbiata breaks into our box and he puts a move on Tomasig and he nets the first goal of the match.

37' - Tomasig makes a nice save on a shot from 7 yds. out, but he allows a rebound and we are unable to clear. Terranova is there for Pro Patria and he bangs it home.

45' - Nordari gets a foul called and then his presistent arguing afterwards gets him two yellow cards and a shower.

We're down at the half 0-2 and we've been outshot 2-5. We did not generate much action in the first 45 minutes with our 51% possession.

62' - Carteni and Sessolo replace Carnelossi and Kabine.

72' - The fans that showed up today are now starting to hit the exits.http://dynamic2.gamespy.com/%7Efof/forums/images/smilies/frown.gif

We do little to excite the home crowd and I don't blame them for leaving early. We lose 0-2.

Samuel Fuzik saw his first international action today in a World Cup Qualifier against Latvia. The young Slovak saw 15 minutes of action and earned a 7. He completed all 5 passes he attempted and his only shot was on goal.


September 9, 2005

Marco Amoroso was injured during our squads U-20 match. He will miss two weeks with a strained calf. Our physio's recommend that I let a specialist examine him.http://dynamic2.gamespy.com/%7Efof/forums/images/smilies/confused.gif I hold off for the moment.

2' - Ferraro plays it back to Tormen, but Tormen's clearing attempt hits a Valenzana player and bounces to Sorrentino who centers it to Lauria. His shot is somehow turned behind by Tormen.

11' - Scapini finds himself in space and he's one-on-one with Tormen. Tormen charges off his line and makes the save!

29' - This game is getting very physical and there have already been 6 cards handed out.http://dynamic2.gamespy.com/%7Efof/forums/images/smilies/eek.gif

35' - Mercuri makes a stupid two-footed challenge on Sessolo and he picks up his 2nd yellow card and we are now a man up.

We go to the half tied at 0. Hopefully, we can exploit the man advantage in the 2nd half. We have 6 shots to Valenzana's 3. We also haev 54% possession.

60' - Sekoranja is judged to have pushed off and he is shown his 2nd yellow card and now both teams play with 10.

71' - Kabine and Carteni are brought on for Makaveev and Carnelossi.

81' - Giuliatto sent a ball to Fuzik who made his way into the area and sent the ball past the keeper for his first goal as a member of Belluno.
GOOOAAAALLLLLLL Belluno!!!!

83' - De Bortoli comes on for Sessolo as I go defensive.

The final whistle blows and we start league play with a 1-0 victory.

Shots: Belluno 8 - 6 Valenzana
Sot: Belluno 5 - 4 Valenzana
Corners: Belluno 7 - 3 Valenzana
Fouls: Belluno 15 - 11 Valenzana

MoM: (MC) Luca Pelligrini (8)

Postgame Notes:


Tormen or Fuzik should have gotten the MoM nod as they also both received 8's.
Sandri had a good game with 11 interceptions. He still is unhappy and wants to be put on the TL, but if he keeps playing like this, then he's not going anywhere.
YELLOW CARDS: Sekoranja (2), Sestu, Ferraro

The Belluno board has invested another $90k into the club. We currently sit at -$829k.http://dynamic2.gamespy.com/%7Efof/forums/images/smilies/eek.gif


September 13, 2005

I approach to sign (AM/F RC) Junior Ross. He is a 19 yo. who is valued a $2.2M and my scout found him on his recent trip through Central Europe. His contract is not protected and he would be the ideal buy and sell player that I need to get me out of debt. I offer him the biggest offer that my board will let me:
$1650/wk
$320 per app.
$320 per goal
$320 per ast.
$80k signing bonus

14' - Tormen comes out to play a corner and it looks like he misjudges it and it skips past him. Marco Romano is there to gather it and score.

19' - Fuzik gets the ball in space and he hits a bender that goes past Manis on his right side and it bangs off the post. The rebound hits Manis in the back and goes in for an own goal.
GOOOAAAALLLLLLL Belluno!!!!

For the past 20 minutes, Fuzik and Giuliatto have been reaking havoc on the Pro Vercelli defense as they create chance after chance. However, the game goes to the break tied at 1. We have them outshot 8-3 and we have 52% possession.

73' - Kabine and Solagna come on to replace Carnelossi and Nodari.

83' - Fuzik gets in an argument with the referee and he gets his 2nd yellow card and is sent off. This is our 3rd game in a row with only 10 players to end it. I'm going to have to talk to him later as he needs to be on the pitch for us to succeed.

84' - De Bortoli replaces Makaveev, as I now focus on getting out with a tie.

93' - Carteni sends a beautiful ball into the box to find an unmarked Solagna, but Manis makes a beautiful save to preserve the tie.

Pro Vercelli run out of time to take advantage of the man up situation and the game ends in a 1-1 tie.

Shots: Belluno 11 - 7 Pro Vercelli
Sot: Belluno 1 - 3 Pro Vercelli
Corners: Belluno 4 - 4 Pro Vercelli
Fouls: Belluno 16 - 10 Pro Vercelli

MoM: Salvatore Ferraro (8) 1st of season, 1st of career. He was 13/13 on headers with 5 being key. He also had 2 interceptions.

Postgame Notes:


Makaveev was huge in the air as he won 12/15 headers.
We need to figure out that the goal is to shoot the ball in the net and not around it. Today we had 11 shots with only 1 on goal.
YELLOW CARDS: Fuzik (2), Carteni

3' - Fuzik makes his return after being suspended for Sunday's match. His first chance on net hits the crossbar and bounces back.

Legnano's Nordi has chance after chance after chance in the first half, but he can't seem to get the ball on net. Then the one time he does, Tormen stops him cold on a 1-on-1 opportunity.

The match is scoreless at the half. We have been outshot 5-7, but we do have 54% possession.

62' - M. Amoroso and Carnelossi come onto the pitch to replace Carteni and Fuzik.

74' - Makaveev is brought on for Nodari.

GOOOAAAALLLLLLL Belluno!!!!

89' - A free kick is taken from the left of the penalty area by M. Amoroso and he sends it into the box for Kabine, who promptly drops it right back. Amoroso then sends it to the far post and Giuliatto is there and he puts it into the net.
GOOOAAAALLLLLLL Belluno!!!!

I tell the local media that I wasn't surprised that we beat a team that is "supposedly gunning for promotion" this season. This IS the second time we've beaten Legnano on the road in less than 35 days.

Alessio Sestu, Aleksandar Makaveev and Salvatore Ferraro all liked my fortright view regarding Legnano's slim chance of getting promoted. http://dynamic2.gamespy.com/%7Efof/forums/images/smilies/tongue.gif That's right boys, follow me and I will get the job done.

I also tell the press that I'm happy with the recent play of Alessandro De Bortoli.

23' - Carteni sends in a cross towards the far post. Giuliatto is the target and as he goes for the ball he is fouled. PENALTY!!! Sestu steps up to the spot and he bangs it into the ol' onion bag.
GOOOAAAALLLLLLL Belluno!!!!

45' - Fuzik sends Sessolo on a run into the box and the shot just goes wide.

We reach the half with a 1-0 lead. We have them outshot 6-1 and we've had the ball for 53% possession

46' - Fuzik and Sessolo have a nice two man game going and Fuzik takes it into the box and his shot goes over the bar.

50' - Giuliatto is forced to leave due to an injury, but it doesn't look to be too serious. Sekoranja is his replacement.

74' - Some how Tormen lets in a shot from 30 yds. out. Very disappointing.

75' - Kabine and M. Amoroso come on for Fuzik and Sessolo.

The game ends in a tie.

Postgame Notes:


Sandri had another good game. He earned an 8 today. He had 4 key headers and 6 interceptions.
Giuliatto earned an 8 before he had to come off.
Our attendance of 903 was a nice welcome seeing how most of our league games average around the 600's.
We had 53% possession.
YELLOW CARDS: Makaveev
INJURIES: Giuliatto is out for 5 days with a gashed leg.

October 2, 2005 (PM)

The Belluno board has decided to invest another $280k into the club. I keep wondering to myself how much more are they going to invest.


October 3, 2005

We sign (AM C) Nico Pulzetti to a 4 wk. trial. My scout says he is a promising player well worthy of my consideration. This will also allow M. Amoroso to focus all his time on developing on the U-20 squad.


October 7, 2005

Samuel Fuzik sustained a damaged shoulder in training and will be sidelined for about a week.


October 8, 2005

We sign (M C) Alex Pederozili to a 2 week trial period. He looks to be a very stong player at the ripe age of 21.

25' - Baldini has an excellent chance on a header in front of the net, but Tomasig is able to tip it over the bar.

33' - Fuzik has a nice 1-2 combo with Carnelossi and on the return pass Fuzik bangs it off the far post and into the net.
GOOOAAAALLLLLLL Belluno!!!!

42' - A nice run by Baldini as he takes it past our defense and then beats Tomasig to the far post for the tying goal.

1-1 score at the half. We have them outshot 8-4 and we have 52% possession.

69'- I bring on Makaveev and Solagna for Nodari and Sekoranja.

92' - We seem to be playing over-confident today and Olbia finally scores on one of their many second half chances.

It's these kind of losses that kill me.http://dynamic2.gamespy.com/%7Efof/forums/images/smilies/frown.gif

45' - Pizzighettone's (D C) Berardelli receives his 2nd yellow card of the match and is sent off. Hopefully, we can take advantage in the 2nd half.

It's 0-0 after the first 45 minutes. We have outshot them 5-1 and possession is 50/50.

51' - Sessolo forces a turnover in the Pizzighettone half of the field and it leads to a cross by Carteni into the six for Makaveev. He goes up for it and is knocked down by Pizzighettone's keeper. PENALTY!

53' - Sekoranja steps up to the spot and he bangs it home.
GOOOAAAALLLLLLL Belluno!!!!

66' - Rigo comes on to replace Sekoranja and I switch to a 4-4-2.

74' - Solagna and Carnelossi make up my last two subs of the match. They come on for Fuzik and Carteni.

76' - Ferraro intercepts the ball in our box and he decides to play it back to Tormen. The only problem is that Tormen wasn't expecting the back pass and the ball rolls into the net for an own goal.

Another game that we should have earned 3 pts. sees us only earn 1 this time. Ferraro has had such a good year that I can't be too angry, but still he cost us this game.

Postgame Notes:


Nobody earned an 8 today.

Tormen followed up his (5) with a (6) today. The fans and I expect more than this out of him.
We had 51% possession for the game.

After a disappointing draw with Chiari, I enter the locker room only to be met by my physios. They infrom me that Aleksander Makaveev suffered a torn groin in today's match and he will be out for 2 months. They also suggest surgery.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------
MAKAVEEV SETBACK FOR BELLUNO
"Belluno stalwart Aleksander Makaveev will be out for about 2 months after suffering a torn groin muscle in his side's game against Chiari.

Although concerned that the 20 yr. old will be missing from the first team, the fans of the club are remaining hopeful that the team can compete without him."
-------------------------------------------------------------------------

A member of the media asked me if Makaveev will be missed. I told him that he will be missed, but I also think that the squad will be able to pick up the slack in his absence.

Alberto Giuliatto was named to the Serie C2/A team of the week. This is the 2nd time in his career that he achieved this feat. Interesting note: 11/22/04 and 11/21/05 are the two dates he accomplished this feat.

2' - Baldi gets a breakaway following a corner for us. He moves in alone, but Tormen is there to make the save. Is this the game that I get the "real' Tormen back?

80' - D. Amoroso comes on for the ultra-hot Giuliatto.

The board is very happy about today's big win over Castel San Pietro. Well so am I.

I always enjoy the opportunity to rub a big win in the nose of the opponents manager. And today's 3-0 win over Castel San Pietro is no different. I let Nevio Valdifiori know that I tactically outclassed him today in our match and that his squad is no match for mine.http://dynamic2.gamespy.com/%7Efof/forums/images/smilies/biggrin.gif

Bruno Carnelossi and Alberto Giuliatto are named to the Serie C2/A team of the week. It's the 2nd time that Giuliatto is named to the team and it is Carnelossi's first ever nomination.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------
VALDIFIORI REFUSES TO REPLY TO GONZALEZ

"Nevio Valdifiori has reacted with indifference to David Gonzalez' comments that he was tactically outplayed by the Belluno Boss.

Nevio Valdifiori has come out in the wake of his side's game against Belluno and told a local reporter that he is not going to be drawn into responding every time a fellow manager sees fit to talk about his side, adding that if he did then he'd never have time to actually manage his team."

9' - Giuliatto sets up Kabineb with a good opportunity in the box, but he has TOO much time and he blasts the shot over the bar.

29' - Carnelossi looks to send a ball into the box for Kabine. As the ball is in the air, Kabine is backed into and a foul is called. PENALTY!!

30' - Sekoranja steps up to the spot and his shot is SAVED! The rebound is cleared and the match remains level.

37' - Giuliatto remains a terror down the left wing as he sets up Fuzik with a good chance that rattles off the crossbar.

45' - Ferraro makes a very important challenge in the box and he wins it and then the ball runs to Pietranera and he one times it, but Tormen is there to make the save.

The half ends without any goals, but there was plenty of action. We have been outshot 5-6, but possession is 50/50. There have also been 7 cards handed out.

51' - Fuzik has his shot from 7 yds. out saved as he shot it right at the keeper.

52' - Sandri trips a player and he picks up his 2nd yellow card and is sent off. Time to go to a more defensive lineup.

73' - Tormen makes another big save and the ball rolls around near the goal line before it is cleared out by Rigo.

74' - Nodari replaces Kabine.

84' - I don't understand how we get caught updield playing with a defensive mindset, but we do and it leads to a goal for San Marino.

93' - Carnelossi hits Nodari in the clear, but his touch is too strong and the ball rolls to the keeper. Sestu then hits Giuliatto on a run into the box and his shot is saved!!

5' - Tormen runs out to cut off a long ball, but it rolls out of the penalty area and instead of kicking it clear Tormen decides to retreat back to his line and the Pro Sesto easily places the 25 yd. shot into the back of the empty net.

20' - Giuliatto sends his corner kick to the far post and Ferraro is there to receive the pass and finish for his first career goal.
GOOOAAAALLLLLLL Belluno!!!!

39' - De Bortoli gets his pocket picked and Pro Sesto's Maiolo walzes into the box alone and he scores an easy goal.

40' - Kabine is forced to replace Sessolo who has picked up a minor knock, but he is getting worse.

The half ends and we trail by a goal. We have been outshot 2-6 and possession is even.

68' - M. Amoroso comes on for Sestu in a move designed to provide some more attack.

89' - Mailo receives a long ball and he gets 1-on-1 with Tormen and he torches him again.

The whistle blows and we disappoint the home fans with a 1-3 loss.

Postgame Notes:


Pro Sesto had 6 players earn an 8 for their efforts.
Tormen earned a 5 for his game. He has definately not been the same player this season that he was last year.
We ended up with 54% possession.
INJURIES: Daniele Tormen will miss 5 days with a strained neck. Maybe it's from turning his head around so many time in one game. Samuel Fuzik is out for 2 weeks with a chest injury.

[kingfc22]

December 20, 2005

Daniele Amoroso requested to be put on the TL again. I guess he does not like playing in the shadow of his brother. If he asks again, then he's gone.


December 21, 2005

Daniele Tormen was issued an official warning in regards to his poor perfromance to date. He accepted the warning and said that it was just and deserved.

Carnelossi agrees to my contract extension offer.
Details
$1000/wk
- $60 assist bonus
- 10% yearly increase


January 2, 2006

Salvatore Ferraro broke his cheekbone during a routine training excercise and he is expected to be out for a month.http://dynamic2.gamespy.com/%7Efof/forums/images/smilies/frown.gif My physios report no long term effects stemming from this injury.

Inter's (D LC) Luca Ceccarelli has agreed to join us when his contract expires in July. The 22 yo. Italian is valued at $950k. An ideal sign and sell for me. he is currently playing on loan at Biellese and is having a strong season.


January 3, 2006

Lecce's (GK) Antonio Rosati has agreed to joing us in July on a free transfer. He is valued at $460k. The 22 yo. Italian is currently playing for Cavese in Serie C2/C. All his GK skills seem to be average or above. He does need to learn the value of hard work. I hope to sell him for profit when he arrives.

28' - A long header off Tormen's goal kick leads to a break away for Sinato how manuevers around Tormen to place the ball into the net.

33' - Fuzik one times a shot from 25 yds. out and it finds the back of the net.
GOOOAAAALLLLLLL Belluno!!!!

Score at the half is 1-1. We have been outshot 5-8 and Ivrea have 51% possession. Sandri played a poor first half and might be pulled early on in the 2nd.

61' - Banev makes his debut as he goes on for Sandri. Makaveev makes his return from his injury and Sessolo leaves.

73' - A nice pass into the box sets up an easy finish for Ivrea's Barbato to give them the lead back.

74' - Carteni replaces Canrelossi.

86' - Kabine gets a good chance, but he puts it wide. What else is new for my squad???

Another game against a bottom rung opponent and another non-victory. We lose today 1-2.

Shots: Belluno 9 - 17 Ivrea
Sot: Belluno 1 - 5 Ivrea
Corners: Belluno 3 - 3 Ivrea
Fouls: Belluno 11 - 7 Ivrea

MoM: Matej Sekoranja (8) 1st of season/3rd of career. He completed 23/28 passes with 6 key passes. He also had 2 key headers and 3 interceptions.

Postgame Notes:


The loss of Ferraro really hurt us today as Sandri only managed a 5. Not having Ferraro to his left seemed to bother the central defender.
Giuliatto continues his solid season with an 8.
We did end up 51% possession.

1' - A quick start for Vis Pesaro leads to a goal for Nonis.

21' - A corner kick leads to another Vis Pesaro goal and my team does not look like it belongs on the same field.

33' - Nonis scores again. We are now down 0-3. I wish I could give a red card to myself right about now!!!!http://dynamic2.gamespy.com/%7Efof/forums/images/smilies/mad.gif

34' - Sekoranja and Carnelossi are both pulled and benched. Their efforts today so far were pitiful. Rigo and M. Amoroso are sent in.

Our worst first half to date ends and we find ourselves down 0-3. We've been outshot 3-14 and they have 55% possession.

46' - Sandri commits a fould in the box and it leads to a penalty. Tormen is able to make the save on the shot however.

65' - Kabine on for Makaveev.

72' - Giuliatto saves his poor effort with a goal off a free kick.
GOOOAAAALLLLLLL Belluno!!!!

3' - Luisi gets in our box and puts it past Tormen. What is going on guys? Ughh!!!

15' - Giuliatto strikes a free kick about 22 yds. out to the left of the near post, when looking from the keeper's POV. His shot buries itself in the upper -V on the far post!
GOOOAAAALLLLLLL Belluno!!!!

28' - Pro Vercelli get caught on the attack and Giuliatto is able to send Sessolo on a run. His shot is saved and just pushed around the post for a corner.

39' - Longo gets a good look at goal for Pro Vercelli, but it puts it over the bar.

1-1 is the score at the half. We have them outshot 5-2 and we have 56% possession.

60' - Sessolo is forced to leave with an injury. Makaveev is his replacement.

64' - Romano gets his 2nd assist as he sets up a chance for Ruopolo who finishes the chance.

73' - M. Amoroso and Carnelossi replace Sestu and Carteni.

86' - Egbedi seal the game as he receives a pass from Romano and puts it past Tormen.

Final score today is 1-3.

Postgame Notes:


I'm so pissed right now at my team and especially at Tormen. He is benched indefinately!!!
Nobdoy earned an 8 today for us; however, Sandri did play very well with 13 interceptions.
We are definately feeling the loss of Ferraro. Not only does he keep the back line in order, but his leadership on the field is also missing.
We even had 54% possession.
YELLOW CARDS: Sandri
INJURIES: Carteni suffered a strained neck and will miss 5 days. Sessolo sprained his wrist and will miss a week.

We agree to loan (M C) Sebastiano Solagna to Salo for the rest of the season. They will pay 70% of his salary as my offer of 80% was rejected.


January 25, 2006

I made a $56k bid for (S C) Vitolo. This 22 yo. plays for Tenerife in the Spanish 2nd Division. He is valued at $140k and the asking price was only $60k. My bid was accepted and I offer him a contract.
Details
$1100/wk thru July 2009- He wanted $1450/wk
- $130 goal bonus
- $70 assist bonus
- 10% yearly wage increase
- I removed the min. release clause


January 27, 2006

Vitolo agrees to my terms and is set to join the club. This is my biggest transfer fee paid to date. He looks even more solid than I had originally thought since I had not fully scouted him. His attributes across the board are almost all average (10) or above.


January 29, 2006

I notice that Vitolo's value has increased to $150k.

The board is pleased with our 5-0 win over Sanremese. I would hope so and how about my recent addition that helped out so much. *pats self on back*

I talk a little smack to Sanremese's head coach too.http://dynamic2.gamespy.com/%7Efof/forums/images/smilies/wink.gif


January 30, 2006

Samuel Fuzik, Matej Sekoranja and Aleksandar Makaveev were all named to the Serie C2/A team of the week. It was the first time that any of them had received this award.

(D C) Leondro Rinuado of Palermo is approached with an offer from the club. He is a 22 yo. Italian valued at $800k and his contract is not protected.
Details
$1000/wk thru July 2009 - he wanted $1250/wk
- $4k signing bonus
- 10% yearly increase - he wanted 15%
- I removed the min. release clause


January 31, 2006 (AM)

Rinuado has agreed to join Belluno at the end of his contract.

I approach a couple of high value targets in hopes to sign them and have them transfer in July.

Lazio's Cristiano Gimelli has agreed to terms with Belluno. This $2.2M valued center midfielder has incredible technical and mental skills.
Details
TBA when he arrives...

Marco Amoroso has agreed to terms to extend his contract until July 31, 2010. He is signed on for $600/wk which is a raise from his previous $480/wk.

Hmmm. I notice that Vitolo is now only valued at $56k.

Who is valuing the players? On other team's is it my scouts eyes and when they reach my club, it's my eyes?

6' - Vitolo gets himself into space and nearly scores, but his shot goes over the far post.

17' - Valenzana nearly miss a goal, but Failla's shot goes wide.

18' - Tomasig makes a big stop on a 1-on-1.

22' - Sorrentino puts one past Tomasig and we are down by a goal.

45' - Tomasig comes up huge again as he goes out and stops a shot by Scapini.

We trail at the break by a goal. We've been outshot 4-11, but possession is even.

47'- Nodari sends a long ball forward to Vitolo who is the only player within 10 yds. of the ball. He moves in on goal and dances his way past the keeper and he scores his 2nd goal in as many games.
GOOOAAAALLLLLLL Belluno!!!!

62' - De ja Vu. This time it's Fuzik sending the long pass to Vitolo and again he latches onto it and puts it in the net!

63' - Rigo enters for Vitolo as I look to preserve the lead.

74' - M. Amoroso and Carteni come onto the pitch and Sekoranja and Carnelossi head off.

85' - Nodari puts pressure on the defenders back in Valenzana's end and forces a turnover that leads to a good opportunity, but he puts the shot high and wide.

89' - Tomasig makes an AMAZING acrobatic save as he leaps up in the air to knock a shot over the bar.

The final whistle blows and we get a nice come from behind win on the road. 2-1 is the final.

Postgame Notes:


The last two games have been fun to manage. I feel like I know I'm going to score with Vitolo in the lineup.
Tomasig is going to stay in net for awhile.
Tomasig, Sestu, Giuliatto, and Sekoranja also earned 8's.
I don't even employ a counter attack strategy, but that is how we scored both goals.
Valenzana ended up with 52% possession.

Pregame Notes:


Forli is 9-6-6 and in 7th....We are 8-5-8 and in 9th
ed. note: The "Italy formation" is actually the basic 4-4-2. I had never looked to see that the 4-4-2 attacking formation had longer arrows until now because I'm using a 4-4-2 today.http://dynamic2.gamespy.com/%7Efof/forums/images/smilies/redface.gif I will still call the basic 4-4-2 the Italy formation because I like that name better.

Forli comes out in a reall 4-4-2 attacking formation.http://dynamic2.gamespy.com/%7Efof/forums/images/smilies/biggrin.gif
I will use a 4-4-2 today with the suspension of Sestu.
Salvatore Ferraro returns to the lineup; however, he is forced to start when I really just wanted to get his feet wet in this one.

SORRY LEGNANO LOSE YET AGAIN
Legnano continued their run of straight league defeats as they lost 2-1 to Olbia. Preseason optimism that a title challenge was on the cards this season has failed to materialize into anything for Legnano. An abysmal run of results over the last few weeks has seen them take up residence in the middle of the table.

7 - A foul in the box on Makaveev gives us a penalty. 4 plyaers get up in arms with the ref and they have to be pulled back. 2 are given cards.

8' - Sekoranja gets the chance and his shot goes wide. That is his 2nd missed penalty in a row.http://dynamic2.gamespy.com/%7Efof/forums/images/smilies/frown.gif Giuliatto gets a chance at a free kick from 30 yds. out and he hits a bender that curves into the net for the goal. The man is a machine on free kicks inside 30 yds.
GOOOAAAALLLLLLL Belluno!!!!

23' - Biasi gives us a taste of our own medicine as he answers with a free kick goal of his own.

26' - Bachlechner received a nice pass into our box and he put it past Tomasig.

We trail 1-2 at the half and we have been outshot 2-6. Alto Adige had 56% of the possession.

67' - Kabine on for Makaveev.

76' - M. Amoroso and Sessolo replace Sestu and Nodari.

We get nothing going offensively late in the game and lose 1-2.

54' - Santoro tries to clear it, but it goes straight to Makaveev. He is 1-on-1, but he puts it wide.

Giuliatto and Sandri also earned 8's.
We ended with 52% possession.

24' - A free kick into the box is met by the head of Peli who directs it past Tormen for the goal.

42 - Vitolo is able to get behind the defense again and he manages to put it into the net. This guy is a scoring machine!!
GOOOAAAALLLLLLL Belluno!!!!

44' - Tormen misjudges a long ball into the box and he comes off his line which allows the Chiari player to dribble around him and put them back on top.

This is embarassing. We are down to the worst team in the league 1-2 at the half. We've been outshot 3-8 too. We have 52% possession.

53' - The one man team that is Vitolo earn a penalty as he is taken down in the box. Alessio Sestu steps up to take the penalty. He bangs it home and we are all square.
GOOOAAAALLLLLLL Belluno!!!!

64' - Sessolo on for Carteni.

73' - Makaveev gets behind the defense on a long ball, but his effort is not enough as his shot is saved and the rebound is put out to touch.
Nodari on for Makaveev.

82' - The Tormen of old finally shows up as he makes a fine save by tipping the ball over the bar.

Another game. Another draw. This time 2-2 with the worst team in the league.

Postgame Notes:


We need more depth in midfield as the loss of Fuzik and Sekoranja at the same time is a huge blow to the club.
Tormen had a strong 2nd half and ended up earning a 9.
Sestu and Ferraro earned 8's in the back.
We held 52% possession during the match.

The 23 yo. midfielder admitted he had been delighted with his form over the season and said it would be an honor to receive the coveted award.

Chiari has been relegated. No shocker here.

BELLUNO BOARD DELIGHTED AT WIN OVER C.S.P.
A prominent member of the Belluno board revealed to the media that he was thoroughly delighted with teh 4-1 win over Castel San Pietro.

After some good recent performances as the season nears its conclusion, Belluno find themselves positioned comfortably in the top half of the table.

This will be of little surprise to their fans, who fully expected to finish in that position back in the pre-season.

My scout has found an 18 yo. "young midfielder" in Alberto Baggio. The kid looks to have a good upside and I declare my interest, which I have done very little of as a manager.


April 10, 2006

Foggia has been relegated from Serie B.

Christian Sandri, Alberto Giuliatto and Vitolo were all selected to the Serie C2/A team of the week. (Sandri's 2nd of season/career, Giuliatto's 3rd of season/4th of career, Vitolo's 1st of season/career)

VITERBESE LOOK TO OFFLOAD YOUNGSTER

Viterbese boss Giuseppe Ferrari has indicated that young midfielder Alberto Baggio can leave Enrico Rocchi if he wants, following Belluno's widely-reported interest in the player.

The 18 yo. has been the subject of much transfer speculation in the media and Ferrari has now said that the player can leave if the price is right
Hrmm... Well, I only have #28k in transfer money and I am way too far in debt to offer anything right now, but I will be watching this kid.

VITERBESE PLAYER WANTS BIG OFFER

In the wake of speculation that Belluno are interested in securing his signature, Viterbese's Alberto Baggio has admitted publically that he would be interested in talking to the club.

Baggio told a national football website however that it would take a very attractive offer to lure him away from Enrico Rocchi.

CAN BIELLESE GO THE DISTANCE?

After seeing his side beat promotion chasers Biellese, Belluno manager David Gonzalez told a local newspaper that he thought the defeat would be damaging to Bielese's attempt to go on and secure promotion to Serie C1.

With the season almost over, Gonzalez pointed out that even though Chierico's men could still mathematically finish in a promotion spot , the defeat could still prove to be damaging to the Biellese squad's morale.

The board has injected antoher $56k. We sit at -$791k at the moment.

The media ask me if I will miss Giuliatto. I want to tell them to look at the calendar, but that is not an option. So I decide to tell them that he will be missed, but that we have adequate cover.

My physios recommend surgery and Giuliatto will be out of action for 6 months.http://dynamic2.gamespy.com/%7Efof/forums/images/smilies/frown.gifhttp://dynamic2.gamespy.com/%7Efof/forums/images/smilies/frown.gifhttp://dynamic2.gamespy.com/%7Efof/forums/images/smilies/frown.gif

28' - Sekoranja picks up a knock and must leave. M. Amoroso comes on as a sub. This recent rash of injuris is starting to worry me.

37' - Carnelossi makes nice work up the right side and sends a cross far post to Makaveev, who puts his header of the post.

45' - D. Amoroso sends a cross inside the six intended for Fuzik. He is fouled and the referee awards a PENALTY!!! Sestu steps up to take the shot and he blasts it past the keeper.
GOOOAAAALLLLLLL Belluno!!!!

We are up one at the half. We have a 4-0 shot lead. This is the first time we have ever held a team to 0 shots at the half. We had 56% possession.

Palazzolo are tied 0-0 at home vs. Vis Pesaro. Meanwhile, Alto Adige lead 1-0 at Valenzana on an own goal in the 44th minute. Incredible.

49' - D. Amoroso sends another cross into the box for Vitolo and again Merlini commits a foul. PENALTY!!! Sestu will take this one too. He knocks it home again.
GOOOAAAALLLLLLL Belluno!!!!

52' - Makaveev breaks in on goal, but a nice save is made on his shot.

70' - I bring on Rigo and Sessolo as this will be their last game with the club. The fans greet them with a nice round of appluase, especially Rigo who will be retiring. De Bortoli and Makaveev come off.

73' - Sessolo receives a pass from D. Amoroso and he beats the keeper to the near post. Maybe he wants to stay.http://dynamic2.gamespy.com/%7Efof/forums/images/smilies/wink.gif
GOOOAAAALLLLLLL Belluno!!!!

We win the season finale 3-0 and go into next season with a lot of momentum.http://dynamic2.gamespy.com/%7Efof/forums/images/smilies/biggrin.gif

Postgame Notes:


This is our 4th victory in a row and it pushes us into an 8th place finish.
Sestu, Fuzik, Vitolo, Makaveev and M. Amoroso earn 8's.
