Welcome back one and all! Here we are again in the Scottish Division Three, also known as the Blog Squad League. We’re approaching the end of September, so the gents have been pondering their transfer targets. Can anyone improve their position before the window?

We have three sets of league fixtures this week to bring us to the end of September. And first up it’s Matt’s AIK vs. Rob’s Gods. I don’t know what frequency Kenneth is tuned into but that is a match winning performance if there ever was one from the 18-year-old.

Welcome back everyone. We’re taking a break from the action of the blog league to take a look at what tactics are being employed by each of the teams and have a closer look at some of the key performers in each team.

AIK – Matt

Matt has probably pulled a decent side from the hat, but not a lot of depth on the face of what we have seen so far.

Tactically Matt has chosen a 2-3-3-2 formation which is focused on splitting the pitch into two basic core elements of defence and attack. It should allow you to overload the front with AM’s or FW’s but the match engine will still recognise a healthy bucket of defensive bodies.

As ever, it’s a Direct style to get up the pitch quickly and efficiently but you need the personal up top to be able to manage that style. Matt has conceded 4 goals per game, so perhaps having nothing in the middle is a problem?

Hallo, hej, hello! Welcome back. Last time out Zak and his Malmo side had managed to break into the top 2 positions. Which has been quite the shock given Malmo were probably not one of the pre-draw favourites. But they have proved reliable and consistent so far.

First up, thankfully, it’s the league.

Hallo, hej, hello! Welcome back to what could be described as the most exciting Championship Manager experience at this exact time of day on this page. And even that is possibly too high praise.

Cup games? Did someone say cup games. Love a cup. Ross gets a really easy draw.

Enough of that, we finally have a league game, and it is myself vs. Matt, FCK vs. AIK.

Hallo, hej, hello! Welcome back to Scandinavia’s finest ruined by 10 stupid men. Last time out we managed to first game of the league having been peppered with cup games, and I suspect this latest post will be much the same. Such is life in Scottish Division Three.

Early doors, Rob (Stromsgodset) and Deano (IFK Gothenburg) appear to have drawn the longest straws, but it is early days. A reminder of the table:

Hallo, hej, hello! Welcome back to our Blog Squad spin-off where we all prove how terrible we really are at this game and one of us lucks out with a fantastic side. It’s the opening night and we’ll get through two rounds of games, the first being the Coca-Cola Cup and then the first round of league fixtures. As Mr Black would say, lets football.

Hello and an icy cold welcome to the next Blog Squad League. It’s been a fair while since we’ve done something like this, as we’ve all be off adulting. In short, the idea here was to take the 10 teams with the best reputations from the Scandinavian countries and throw them together to thrash it out in a not so modern take on the Royale League concept.

Why? It gives us a great chance to further explore a bunch of players and teams that don’t always load into saves and kind of levels the playing field a bit. So, who are the teams we are looking at? In no particular order; AIK Stockholm [SWE], AaB [DEN], SK Brann [NOR], FC Kobenhavn [DEN], IFK Goteborg [SWE], Malmo FF [SWE], OB Odense [DEN], Rosenborg BK [NOR], Stromsgodset IF [NOR], Brondby [DEN]. We’ve also applied January transfers for these teams for players ‘in’ given we are running this on the v2.93 patch and to ensure the squads have some depth where possible.
