Season 62:

What's new?! Not much in fact. same list (in no particular order)- FM26, family, 2014's coaching,own playing career, work. Currently considering a switch to the dark side. EV car. Excellent opportunity via work. Unsure. Feels dirty. World Cup hasn't caught my imagination. Maybe watch last 8 games. Domestic football fan here 

Season 61:

Even less to report for the start of this season! FM2026. Continuing to coach 2014's (now with two teams), playing competitive 11's and 8s with the FFIT league. Work continues to keep me on my toes; family are all well. FM2026 has been a rollercoaster of emotion but absolutely lovin' it. Car troubles only grip. Both cars currently giving me headaches- one under warrranty, mines, the diesel burner needs a good service which I'm planning on doing tomorrow (6th!) depending on weather! Old hands can't cope with the cold! 

Season 60:

Not much has changed for me (or the family). New kitchen fitted (after 13 years of we'll do it this year). Works good, life is good, coaching 2014's, playing competitive football (at the ripe old age of 50). FM2026 comes out in November so likely to lose 2/3 months of the my life. 

Season 59:

CLY rekindled my love for this game (and SFLSL)- all good in my world. Work and family good. Joined an 11's team that supports mental health and wellbeing, as well as helping individuals get fitter. Loving playing competitive 11s again. FM delayed then cancelled so waiting on the last info from the makers. 

Season 58:

CLY wecome experienced SESL manager Marc Legowski.

Primary employment wise all going well, moved into a new role in October 2024, closer to home, less time travelling, more time with family. Family all good. I am continuing to improve health and fitness. Continuing to patiently waiting for the new look, new interfaced FM2025 to be released....Roll on March 2025!

New for season 56: 

coach Raymond Cini

From Malta, and live on island of Malta which is south of Italy.

Been playing online football manager games for over 25 years.

I created 2 games myself: 
"Weekend Predictions EU"  &
"fantasy-league-50-goals.mozello.com"

Season 55 Update

David lives in Glasgow with girlfriend of eight years.
SESL experience previously at HAM for 5 seasons (S19-23).  PT (S50-51).  DFA (S52)

My name's David, obviously, I'm 53, look 35, act about 13.
I'm one of quite a number of managers here from the UK. I still don't know who's from where tbh, I really need to go check the other Bios of my manager colleagues.

I live in Glasgow with my GF who moved in with me late November 2020. She'd basically been staying here since March 20 when covid hit and we still hadn't shed any blood by September so we decided it was safe to live together.
We've had one year of normal life getting to know each other 2019 BC - Before Covid - then the trial by fire of 15 months of covid lockdown.

Both of us looking forward to actually getting out and about and doing the family/social/pubs/clubs part of being a couple.
For those that know Glasgow and who know me, this means actually going to Rufus, Solid Rock and The Cathouse. <-Rock venues of variable quality.

If she survives those then she's a keeper. 
Not a goal keeper.

Season 49 Update

Phil is one of the longest tenured managers in SESL, having captained Clyde FC for well over two decades. He is the only manager Clyde FC has ever known.

Phil spends many evenings and Saturday afternoons coaching his daughter in soccer as well as softball. Her teams continue to win gold medals at an amazing rate, but Phil is quick to credit the kids and not the coaches. In June 2021, the girls agressively won gold at the Missouri Show-Me State games, earning a hard fought draw against the prior perennial gold medal winners in group play and then upending that same team in the finals. The girls also repeated as their regional conference champions with an amazing unbeaten streak that dates back to last year. On the softball field, he girls just completed an undefeated run to claim the top prize there. Phil likes coaching.

Phil enjoys hiking mountain trails and canyons in America's West.  His favorite park is Grand Canyon National Park, and encourages anyone who goes there to see it from the bottom looking up rather than only seeing if from the rim.  If possible, take a raft trip down the Colorado River to get the full experience.  The best rapid is Lava Falls.  Hike Havasu Creek.  Lee's Ferry to Phantom Ranch is a five day float...Phantom Ranch to Lake Mead is nine days.  Do yourself a favor and just GO. 

Phil also enjoys acting and directing in the local community theatre.  Artistic expression is a great release for occupational tension.  :-)
