We won four out of four which I am happy with. The Cup Qtr Final was a nervy game but we proved to be the stronger team in extra time. I am happy with Lalkovic, de Haan, Voutilainen and Dubois who have all been playing very well. These four have a bright future at the club.

Can we continue our 100% record? Until next time, stay tuned!

Awesome start Rookie!
I'm really enjoying to read this story, one of the best I've read

Rookie, you just can't stop winning. Good luck in the Finnish Cup semi final!

Great start to the league campaign, keep it up!

Thanks for all the support guys, you are all amazing

Review

I was disappointed with our draw against FC Inter but I was happy with our three victories, especially the JJK game. We are on a good run of form.
Vincent Dubois is my player of the month after he scored five goals in four games. He has been outstanding so far this season and will certaintly help us to win trophies.

Champions Second Qualifying Phase


More details coming soon....

July Fixtures

Next month we will have our first set of Champions League Qualifiers. I will be looking to win this round over Levadia quite easily. HJK away will be our toughest game as they seemed to have re-discovered that special something which they lost when I entered the frey as KuPS manager. I will be looking for solid wins in all the other games.

Manager's Note

I am delighted with how much KuPS has progressed recently. We have reached the stage where it seems like anything less than a win (league games) is a disappointment. I hope that you have all enjoyed this much more colourful update. Until next time, stay tuned!

Incredible job Rookie, too bad about the draw against Inter, but I see you winning the title easy anyway. Good luck in your draw against Levadia!

Thanks Madrista I say to myself that if I don't win the league, it would be worse than Barca getting relegated.... after not getting a single point or a goal

Good job Nick. I think that you can take KuPS to the CL Groups and beyond. Good luck with the draw

Loving the new post style!
