April-May: The Curtains Are Drawn

These final two months were a chance to secure some more points

This season has flown by quickly. It seems like only yesterday I was just settling in to this new job when the club was struggling in the Lower Division following relegation. Promotion back to the second tier

April-May Results

A tough test in Yaracuyanos, current table toppers, was the first course for the month and we didn't embarrass ourselves in a 2-0 defeat. It was a modest scoreline and they were the better side but we remained in good stead for the rest of the month.

Morale remained intact after that brave loss and we hosted Real Anzoátegui, last season's Lower Division champions. Scoreless at the half, fan favourite Freddy Granados provided that spark we needed to break free and that was the solitary goal in a solid win for our boys.

Despite a twelve day break in between matches we slumped to a disappointing loss at Arroceros de Calabozo in a real end-to-end battle. Alberto Orta and Borges scored the goals for us but we couldn't get a foothold in the match and not accumulating any points from the match has to be regarded as a disappointing result.

Angostura F.C were our second last opponents of the season and our final encounter in April. A tricky away tie, we came away with a point in a 1-1 stalemate. To draw the curtains on a surprisingly successful season we came up against U.A Falcon.

Being the final match of the season I decided to give all of our strikers a shot up front as I played a 4-3-3 with three strikers. They duly rewarded the fans with some convinving finishes. Cañas got the show going with an early strike with Barrera adding a double either side of a Reyes finish.

Alberto Orta added one late to seal the deal and put the finishing touches on a fantastic season that promised a lot for next season. We've safely avoided relegation in the end and I think the fans and players should be proud of their results.

April-May Table

11th place is a fantastic return in our first season back in the second tier. A 14-9-15 record is also a highly satisfactory one and the fact that we finished twenty-eight points clear of the drop signifies how much we've improved and how much we were underestimated heading into the new season.

April-May Player of the Month

There were no stand-out performers this month and that pleases me. The team was the real star this month and they put in a lot of positive displays despite being underdogs in many of the clashes. They've proven their doubters wrong in a terrific season for the club!

Youth Intake

In our annual youth intake day at the club we let in around 20 youngsters through the gates of the Polideportivo Misael Delgado. César Pallares was the most promising of the bunch and he was signed up on a youth contract. Hopefully he develops well because he could be a good player in the future.

Great finish to the season, and IMAGE TO BE ADDED was a great choice as POTM as well

Great season, you must be positive about next year now

Feliks It was the team, okay
Justice Thanks, hopefully we can move on to bigger and better things.

A decent month and a finish to the season and the regen has awful attributes but it matches the level of the league.

Oz96 Well obviously he's not the best regen around but there's definitely potential in there

First off, congratulations on 10k views Walt! Also, well done on a great finish to the season and overall a very solid final league position. Aspirations for next season? Your thoughts on a potential promotion push?

pompeyblue Merci beaucoup pompey, the season was a solid one and our finish reflected that. Next season... I think we can aim for top table but I don't want to get overly complacent because of the dreaded 'second season syndrome', stuff us non-elite FMer's have to worry about!

The Mystery Man Part 1

Bond's phone buzzed in his trouser pocket, and he swiftly picked it up and looked at the new message on the screen which had been sent through only a matter of seconds ago. The ID of the sender of the message wasn't there, adding a layer of mystery to this text. The message read:

Meet me at the West Stand of the Polideportivo Misael Delgado. Near the changing room entrance.

Bond walked towards the home ground of his club Hermandad Gallega F.C, who had just finished their second season under his tutelage. Bond thought he'd be afforded a little break from his new life of football management, but it wasn't to be.

He packed his Walther PPK and headed towards the stadium. He arrived at the West Stand and looked around at the vacant carpark. The only people he could see were people walking along the street opposite the football arena.

All of a sudden 007 felt a hand around his mouth and soon the lights in his head went out and everything turned to darkness.


The pier stretched out into the grey-blue sea. The wooden structure was old, creaky and rusty. Clouds swarmed above and the fierce winds made the water rough and cold. There was no protection on either side so if you fell in it was up to you to get yourself out of there.

Three men stood on either side of the pier, all with their polo shirts and jackets on. Each had black hair and emotionless expressions spread across their face. Two more men walked down the pier and they held a man inbetween them.

He was above average in height, well-built but still fairly thin, wore a fine suit and had combed black hair. He was calm and didn't cause a fuss as he was escorted to the edge of the long wooden walkway. When he got there he was forced to turn around and face another man.

This man had a cold look on his face. His eyes were evil and his body language suggested he was determined. Out of his right pocket he pulled out a pistol. Another, younger man appeared from behind the gunman, obviously the leader of this "gang".

"Mr. Bond - your time is up," the leader said. The man at the end of the pier watched as the gun was handed to the younger gang member, who was looking nervous and twitchy. He fumbled with the gun before steadying himself to aim.

Bond stared at him. "Shoot him, Vargas," ordered the leader. Vargas, the junior, wiped the sweat from his forehead as he settled the aim of the gun towards the chest of the victim. His finger wrapped round the trigger and he slowly pulled on it.

"Hurry up!" his boss barked.

A loud noise went off and Bond fell backwards off the pier, into the water and fell straight down on to the sea bed. Little beads of rain began to fall onto the rickety old pier off the hidden beach. The leader pat Vargas on the back, and the men left and walked back through the dense vegetation.


A drizzle of rain began to fall on the choppy sea off the Venezuelan coast. The sea reflected the overcast sky's grey tone, only the whitecaps of the waves and the dark green colour of the overgrown jungle on the mainland and lone island off the coast provided a contrast to the boring grey.

In the middle of the sea Bond's head splashed out of the water. He gasped for breath and checked that no one was waiting for him in case he had survived. It seems they had made that careless mistake.

The Englishman paddled his way towards the sand and as the rain began to fall more heavily he seeked cover from the downpour that was coming. It was going to be a long night.

To be continued...

How did he survive
