sorry, but probably not. If there's some free software I might consider it, but I don't think I'll have the time to do them anyways
So I finished up my friendlies, and brought in 1 player in a free transfer and 2 youngsters on season-long loans. Also sold 3 players, including perhaps my best player, Jermaine Beckford, for 1m to championship team west brom. The main reason I sold him was because I was fed up with his performances in real life. Also sent out a reserve player of mine out to loan to League 2 side Shrewsbury for 6 months.
Just an FYI, but I'm too lazy to crop out the pics.
Barazite will play MR and will rotate with Max Gradel there, with whoever being in better form getting the start. Pacheco is a striker and will rotate with Mike Grella as the poacher while Becchio will remain my target man.
Hughes will be a back up central midfielder for me. The 33 year old englishman formerly played for Birmingham, Charlton, and Hull. He signed through 2011.
I also retrainted DC Leigh Bromby to a DR, and while he is adjusting to it, I let Jason Crowe start the season off at DR.

7/31, (Away) Leeds 2-2 Hereford
Evey team I played were non-league minnows except for Rangers, QPR, and Hereford. Rangers are one of the two best teams in scottish football, and I was winning 1-0 at the half with my starters. I put in all 11 substitutes at the half and proceeded to get killed by the Rangers starting 11, but that was expected.
QPR is a decent championship team(1 division higher than me), so drawing them away, I felt, was a good result.
Hereford, on the other hand, is a decent team from League 2, one division below me, so I used the angry teamtalk after the draw and some of the more sensitive players felt I was treating them too harshly. The only injury I suffered during these friendlies was that of Arsenal loanee, the dutchman Nacer Bazarite. He will probably be out until mid-late August.
I then entered my first League game, a home game against Exeter(pre-season prediction of relegation-Leeds were predicted to finish 1st, but obviously that isn't gonna happen in real life now). My starting 11 was
Higgs at goal
Parker, Kisnorbo, Marques, Crowe in defense(left to right)
Snodgrass, Kilkenny, Howson, Gradel in midfield(left to right)
Pacheco, Becchio at the forward position (left to right)
The game was a romp, as we won 4-0, with all 4 goals coming in the 1st half. My first goal came 10 minutes in, as some nice passing let kilkenny play a beautiful cross to an unmarked Bechhio, who headed in a goal. In the 23rd minute, Neil Kilkenny, who would win the man of the match, hit a nice shot from the edge of the penalty box. Some nice passing led Snodgrass to find his way inside in the 33rd minute, and he capitalized on his one on one to make it 3-0. The last goal was an outstanding effort from the spainard Daniel Pacheco, who recieved the ball from a clearance on the left flank, ran all the way to goal, cut inside, and tapped it past the goalie to make it 4-0.
However, my best central midfielder, Jonathan Howson, got injured for 2-3 weeks with a "damaged elbow sustained after landing heavily" Bradley Johnson will take over the starting spot for now, although I HATE how he consistently launches these long range shots that rarely come close. If he shoots from long distance too much I might replace him with Bryan Hughes.
Also, I tied up quite a few contracts for the team. American striker Mike Grella signed a new contract that will take him through 2013(its now august 09). Snodgrass, Howson, and Kisnorbo signed contracts through 2014.
My next fixture is at league 2 side Darlington for the League Cup. I will play as many backups as I can for that match. I close out August with
8/15 at Wycombe
8/18 at Walsall
8/22 vs Tranmere
8/29 at Colchester
Here are some of my better players
