I begun a new save and started the game starting when the russian league started which is in january 2010 and i started unemplyed and i have a reputation as proffesional and i applied for the club who had sacked their manager

Ipswich sack Keane

Chris barber takes over as the new manager of Ipswich

"I take over at a difficult time with the club near the bottom of the table and with not much time till the end of the season it will be a challenge to stay up"
 
Good luck again, sigh. Hope you stay with this one.

Month review
although we did not get a win at all this month we played well and showed that we can play well apart from the newcastle game and now it is the end of the season now so i can put my own stamp on things with new players and hope we can do better next season.
 
the story will be better starting next season as it will be my team and tactics as i attempting to create my own

Month review.
Great month from the team and so far so good for my tactic with us scoring a lot of goals to my delight and i am glad that stead is scoring goals as he struggles last season to do so... and through to the 3rd round of the league cup against Birmingham, but we were made to work for it though.... good results in the league have put us top of the championship

Month review
Not the best of months here with only 1 win, 3 losses and 2 draws, but apart from the Barnsley game..... which i cannot explain what happened really they just caned us all over, and a narrow defeat to birmingham in the league cup.... but a great way to end the month against play off chasing cardiff a team that i usually get slaughtered by..... Hopefully next month we can gat a few more wins.

Player of the month.
Jon stead he was the more consistent player of the month

Young player of the month
Henri Lansbury... he scored a couple of goals and showed why he is so highly rated..

News Update...
After being offered the position as manager of Bolton.. ipswich manager has rejected the offer stating
"things are going well here at portman road and it would be wrong of me to just leave them now. although i have to admit part of me did want to accept the job but in the end i wanted to try and get Ipswich back in the premier league"

Month review..
a good month which saw us win 3 games, draw 1 and lose 1 and the team playing very well at the moment and sitting nicely in 4th place 2 points of automatic promotion.. the game at home to Derby was the most disappointing game as i thought we deserved a draw at least but we just could not hit the back if the net and Derby did ..

Barber Leaves Ipswich and is appointed as manager of Everton

" i Enjoyed my time at Ipswich but when the opportunity came up i could not say no really... i wish Ipswich all the best and i feel i have left them in a good position, but now i turn my attention to the game against Fulham... and luck would have it my new Everton team will play my old side Ipswich in the FA Cup... and i have already been promised £26m in transfer funds"
