FM12: Promotion from Blue Square Bet Premier (BSP)


Another season over, and a good one at that. After a rough patch near the end of the regular season, we managed to stay in 5th, enough to get us to the playoffs. Once we got there we eliminated Luton as I mentioned on the previous post, which led us to the final againstal Forest Green at Old Trafford.

The game wasn't as exciting as the Luton one, but we still managed to provide the fans with a bit of a spectacle, they were definitely pleased. We started the game playing a bit defensively, but managed a nice goal in the first 5 minutes from a counter attack. Aaron Brown was the scorer. Tiago Sala from Forest Green managed a comeback at 13min from a header. At 33min we scored again, with Darwin Perez and then once again just before half-time. The second half wasn't as eventful, but the opposition did manage to score a second goal with Erik Opsahl at 83min. That wasn't enough however to get them into the game again.

Overall, I'd say this was a good season. We even managed to get our finances back to a reasonable place. We finished it with 104,726 pounds on the green, which will definitely help next season when we will need to step up the quality of our game.
