Jesus, NZ are on a rampage.

The next 2 games we played would be friendlies against Cook Islands and PNG, Easy wins in my opinion but i would be trying different tactics out
The Squad for the Games is as followed:
First of the 2 games saw us play Cook Islands. We were favourites from kick off. Even the Cook Islands Formation told me this; they played 5 at the back with 3 CDMS, very defensive.
The First half saw us being very possessive of the ball but we could get that goal, damn. We needed to score so it was time to test a new tactic out the second half. We went 3-4-3.
The second half continued just like the first. We had so much possession and in the 54th minute the new tactic worked. We went 1-0 up from a Yelou screamer. But in the 80th minute Cook Islands pulled one back through some sloppy defending earning them a draw.
The second of the friendlies saw us up against PNG, this was another chance to test out my new tactics as we were favourites to win.
The first half kicked off and we had 2 quick attacks, but we lack composure in front of the net. The first 45 minutes we passed the ball round and in the 45th minute we countered and we did score a scrappy goal but it was deemed to be offside.
Like most of the games I’ve been in charge of we have totally dominated and today was just like any other. PNG did have a few attacks and nearly scored in but in the 59th minute Georgie Sope scored on his debut. But in the 83rd minute PNG got the equalizer, but we were able to see the game out for a draw.
2013-04-05 15:54#90119 LJO200 : PNG? You have officially made an entire nation feel like a picture.I always call Papua New Guinea PNG
so much easier, they must like being a picture type cos they never complain 
We have just received rumors that Adam Stubbs, Vanuatu's rookie manager, has left the national side with immediate effect. We will bring you news as soon as we can
Here at Sky Sports we never tell a lie but today we have found out that Adam Stubbs Will not be leaving Vanuatu but he has take the role of Redditch Utd FC
We will bring you live coverage from the interview between Adam and Redditch in the next hour
AS - Adam Stubbs
J - Journalist
J - what were all the rumors about you leaving?
AS - Well i left Vanuatu for a few Days to go visit England, i told the Vanuatu that i would be gone for a while and i think people just took it out of hand
J - Right, What made you take the Redditch job? when you could have take a few jobs in Serie B and Npower league 2
AS - Redditch are a great club and they have just been promoted to the BSN, i wanted to take charge and take them to the top. There is little funds at the club and i would love to make the club the best it can be. Also i can prove myself as a manager there
J - Have you made any signings at Redditch yet?
AS - Yes i have signed 5 young players, as we lacked player in the team. When i got to the club we only had 16 players and not enough to cover all positions. I have also signed 3 staff.

Review:
I'm happy with all the Signings they have all impresses during the preseason
I'm disappointed with the results, but we are team who have just been thrown together so hopefully we can push on in the league
The next game for the mighty Vanuatu is against Samoa, we should be winning the game but i will be testing different tactics out so we might not be a stable.
The squad for the Samoa game is as followed:

I thought playing Samoa would be easy but Samoa came out and scored in the 2nd minute of the game but we fought straight back scoring a kick double from Sope in the 8th and Soromon in the 11th minute of the game. We were on top from then until they countered us in the 19th minute of the game
The second half started boring, both teams just passing the ball around, so in the 60th minute I changed my tactics to an attacking style and in the 67th minute it paid off with Maki getting our 3rd goal of the game.

Monthly Review:
The Players i signed have bulked the squad in all the different areas.
I'm Disappointed with the results we could have beaten all the teams, but we just didn't have the composure.
We sit Bottom of the table, I'm hoping to improve in the next month.
