Playoff heartbreak

Your decisions

Fictional club events from this simulated season.

1. MD 12 · Training load under scrutiny
   Give the squad a breather. Cooper cuts the session short. Chris Cohen gets recovery time before the next match.
   Next match: fresher legs. Following 2: a small preparation cost.

2. MD 23 · Mid-season replacement
   Jack Colback out; James Garner in.
   Jack Colback accepts a late loan offer after slipping down the pecking order. Pick a replacement for the second half.

3. MD 32 · Catering invoice causes a stir
   Meet the fans despite the mix-up. Cooper shortens training so Matty Cash and Adlène Guédioura can keep their promise. Staff sort the catering afterwards.
   Next 3 matches: a dressing-room lift creates more chances, with a little less defensive focus.

4. MD 46 · A Forest Focus clip goes everywhere
   Put the full interview on record. Cooper and Chris Cohen explain the full Forest Focus interview. Lewis Grabban says the squad are together, although the clip keeps travelling.
   Second leg: a lift in confidence, with some risk of losing focus.
