Martin Andersson is out a month and half to two months with a sports hernia.

Sandstrom comes in as the BWM.
54 -

We were absolute trash on offense today. No highlights there.

M: Goran Gustafsson/Daniel Andersson*/Victor Selander*/Fredrik Nilsson/William Walemark
S: Sebastian Larsson
Yeah we're having to start the guy I'm training to be a MR because we've been that hard hit by injuries.
30 - That was an easily stoppable goal.
0-1
58 -
Beyan for
Ljungberg;
Sandstrom for
Selander
75 -
Nilsson goes off with injury, leaving us with a 5-3-2 and
Holuj as the fifth backline member
87 - First
Broberg fails to get the ball. Then he gives away a PK to seal the game
0-2
I take one last look over the English clubs that are available before I decide to stay here. I have a chance to remake this team into a fiscally responsible one next season. Everyone else would involve more lengthy courses.

S: Simon Bjur/Sebastian Larsson
I'm going to be totally honest. I hate the way the 4-5-1 plays and I think it's caused our strikers to be utter shit out there. So we're switching to the 4-4-2.
5 -
Andersson to
Selander, who recovered two lost possessions on this sequence. Pass to
Larsson in the box, only it's tackled away. Loose ball rolls to
Bjur and the open net is his. Score one for the 4-4-2.
1-0
63 - You know what I also hate? The bright yellow, unreadable text of our second uniforms. Anyway,
Ek in for
Gustafsson;
Holuj for
Ljuslinder
A solid, if unremarkable win to break the drought.
Victor Selander is PotM with a 7.7.
Multiple teams in the division approach our Chief Scout. I'm *pissed*. I'm the one who found this guy and convinced him to quit playing and become a scout. Buzz off, assholes!
It doesn't work. He leaves for a bigger payday, and we get $3.1k in compensation. We'll operate without a Chief Scout the rest of the way, as I don't plan to dig into the transfer market.

21 seconds -
Gustafsson dribbles out to the left wing, then kicks ahead to
Broberg, who is an attacking position. Center to
Larsson, and the shot's shoved aside, but
Bjur is there to sink the open net rebound
1-0
2 - Bitchass immediate answer
1-1
5 -
Ljungberg atones for his earlier screwup by dribbling down the right flank and cracking a searing cross that
Gustafsson runs down and walks in.
2-1
23 -
Bjur heads a corner clearance back down to
Larsson in the box. He scores and does a Happy Feet dance with fist pump
3-1
55 - I just shouted "That was offsides!" and the assistant ref lifted his flag up. FUCK YEAH AND FUCK YOU!
57 -
Holuj for
Ljuslinder;
Ljungberg shifts inside to DC, and
Beyan comes in. I just realized why our FBs were overlapping on those attacks - they're set to Automatic duty. Oops.
Our first dominant win.
This is how swingy the table has been. We dropped to 8th after our two losses, and now the two wins after our victory, we're up in 4th and just 2 points behind the league leaders.

This game marks the halfway point of the season. If we lose, we could fall as far as 9th. Win, and we might even take the top spot. It's been an insane, wide-open first half in the Second Division North.
52 - Shit! Just before I can get the sub in to pull
Broberg, they score on his fuckup
0-1
61 -
Ek for
Gustafsson
We were honestly pretty unlucky out there. Should have pulled at least a draw. But we lost, and plummet to 8th we go.

Such a fucking bullshit ripoff that was.

0-1
53 -
Ljuslinder for
Lindner;
Bjur is off for
Ahlin and some striker adjustments up front
So god damned fucking frustrating.
Daniel Andersson is out on yellows next game.

30 seconds - .......
0-1
50 - Can't wait for this season to be over
0-2
60 - I make subs that won't matter
75 -
Andersson with a beautiful rocket to
Larsson. He dribbles, then fires a shot just outside the box that goes in and gives us a lifeline
1-2
92 -
Ahin you fucknozzle IF YOU STAYED ONSIDES WE'D BE WALKING OUT OF HERE WITH A POINT!
The fans want me to change to a different formation, even though our losses have been INCREDIBLY NARROW
We're in 9th and hold a team meeting to up morale, which we do.
