Sir Alex's Fergusons Academy Month 2 Update (15/8/08 - 15/9/08)​

Sir Alex has now gone on to announce his next 3 managers for the month.

Dunfermline;

A strange month for Shantanu Ambekar saw him go from 2nd to 5th in league table, this comes with only one league victory for the month, his only win coming against Airdrie United. His other league matches saw him have two 1-1 draws against St. Johnstone and Dundee and also a loss to Ross County. Ambekar took his teams through to the next rounds of both the League cup and Challenge Cup. A win against Peterhead in the league cup, they now face St Mirren in 3rd round while in the Challenge cup they beat Queen of the South 2-0 to face Dundee. Ambekar's best win of the month was in the challenge cup against top of the table Queen of Sth.

In the last month Shantanu has brought in just one more player, 19 year old centre back Mikel San Jose from Liverpool. Rumours are flying round the media about Ambekars next signing but The scottish football Gazette has rumoured it Ambekar is looking to 26 yeard old Scunthorpe defender Ezomo Iriekpen.

Shantanu's next match comes against James Edmonds Livinstone team.

Current Position:5th
Last Month: 2nd
Media Predition: 3rd​

Airdrie United;

Airdrie United have stayed rooted to 6th pleace in the league. An intresting month for Shalin Shah, in his 5 games in all forms of the game he won just two of his matches this month. One of his 3 losses came against Kilmarnock in the league cup 2nd round. His other league losses came against Dunfermline and Partick Thistle. His wins were a 1-0 win against Clyde and a 3-1 win against Dundee.

Nothing new has happened in the transfer window for Airdrie United, there 7 loan sinings cost them nothing and also there two free tranfsers. They have managed to get in more money than they have payed for letting only 1 player go for 1k and then one player on loan to Dumbarton.

Shah's next game come against Das's Morton.

Current Position: 6th
Last Month: 6th
Media Prediction: 8th​

Livingston;

One loss in this month for Edmonds has moved Edmonds up to 7th compared to 8th in the last month. His only loss of the season came against Clyde a 2-0 loss away from home. Edmond had two outstanding games this month, one was in the League Cup 2nd round. A 1-1 draw in normal time against Hearts and they went to penalties. Edmonds lost on Penalties to his SPL oppositon. Hearts manager did not want to comment on the match in the post match press conference although Edmonds admitted he was disapointted with the result and thought they probably could have won the match.

In the transfer window Edmonds has brought in one more player in Graham Weir from Raith for 8k. He has also let two more players go, one to Kilmarnock for 35k and then another one on loan to Gary Miller on loan to Brechin.

His only win came against Edmond's Livingston, which ended in a 2-0 victory for his side. He lost to St Johnstone 1-0 in the League Cup 2nd Round which means he is now out of both cups and can now focus on the league. His other 3 losses came against St Johnstone once again this time in the league, Morton and Airdrie Utd. He has now had 9 competitve matches in which he has won 3 and lost 6.

He has brought in 2 more players for no cost, one player on loan from Sunderland and another on a free transfer from Hawkes Bay. The two other players he has let go have given him 42k. Roddy McLennan leaving to St. Johnstone for 20k and Chris Higgins for 22k to Rochdale. His transfer dealings means he has earnt 96k from all his dealings.

Morton;

Morton after the second month now lie 9th in the league. Das has won two games this month and losing 4 of them. His two wins of the month came against SPL side Dundee Utd. and Clyde. Das was ecstatic about his victory over his against his SPL rivals and was said to have taken the team out on the town because of the victory! Das will play celtic in the League Cup 3rd round. All though the match before he had been demolished by Queen of Sth. 4-1 away from home.

Das has brought in just one more player for 30k from Tranmere. He is central defender Ben Chorley.

Current Position: 9th
Last Month: 10th
Media Prediction: 7th​

Dundee;

Jack Teague has stuck his team rock bottom of the league. Although he is still yet to win a league game his cup form seems to be a lot better in the league. He is against Dunfermline in the Challenge Cup Semi Final after beating Ross County 2-0 away from home. He is also in the League Cup 3rd round after beating Stirling in the 2nd round. He will play Falkirk in the 3rd round of the cup.

Teague has done nothing of late in the transfer window and may be ruing the 7 players he let leave the club.

Teagues record stands at 4 wins, 2 draws and 4 losses.

Teagues next match comes against rival Rhys Williams and his St. Johnstone team.

Current Position: 10th
Last Month: 9th
Media Prediction: 1st​

Aww...poor Dundee! They might be on the hunt for a new man at the helm soon!

 

[saladguy]

Aaah crap. The media are completely against me claiming that I will finish bottom and therefore relegated. I had quite a good start and now it's slowly falling to pieces. I've lost four in a row and now I'm playing first place Queen of the South which judging my both teams' recent form I'm going to lose 5 in a row. :help

 

[Jaztheman]

I'm on the steady increase and our loss in the cup against Hearts means we'll be focusing on the league. A great performance this month though and with the table looking quite tight, I wouldn't be surprised if we grabbed fourth. I think top three is out of our reach this year though.

A great big LOL at Jack.

 

[shantanu_rooney]

Dundee are poor.. Good place in the middle of the table

 

[treva]

Meh, I'm only interested in cup glory anyway...

Serves me right for choosing the most realistic attributes out of everyone!

 

[Manly]

I didn't fill mine either...

Come on the Pricks!
