The European Journeyman Ep44
We’re heading into winter in Serbia. After the recent fixture pile-ups it’s a refreshing 5 games in December. Those five games however, ARE ALL IN THE FIRST SIXTEEN DAYS OF THE MONTH!!! Once we’re finished with Spartak Subotica though, it’s the winter break until mid-February. FK Kolubara are up first in the Serbian Cup. We’ve…

The European Journeyman Ep 43
We’re still in dream-land here with Red Star. We’ve avoided a Halloween nightmare in the Serbian Cup, and made it to November with a record of played 24, won 19 and drawn 5 in all competitions. Our win over Partizan last month saw us extend our lead at the top to SEVEN POINTS. This month…

The European Journeyman Ep42
Life with Red Star has starting well. Actually, that’s a serious UNDERSTATEMENT. We’re unbeaten in EIGHTEEN GAMES in all competitions. Drawing three and two of those were in the second legs of Europa Conference League qualifying rounds after the ties were won and line ups rotated. October has a worrying amount of games. FIVE league…

The European Journeyman Ep41
We’ve started well. This is the first season in my managerial career where I actually have some form of expectations to live up to. The SuperLiga season is 7 games old. We’re top with a three point lead, having won six and drawn one. Last season’s manager, Nebojsa Milosevic, could only manage to qualify for…

The European Journeyman Ep40
We’re in the sixth season of my fledgling managerial career. We started in Greece. The Greek 2nd division SOUTH to be precise, with Aigaleo. After two and a half seasons of no progress and little chance of ever getting promotion to the first division, I jumped over to the Serbian Second Division. It was a…

The European Journeyman Ep39
It’s time to start the music, it’s time to light the lights. It’s time for my FIRST title challenging season AND my first EUROPEAN CAMPAIGN!!! We start the season at home to Vojvodina. Cardoso makes his debut, but Ilic, another defensive reinforcement from Partizan, only makes the bench. It’s a strong side that lines up…

The European Journeyman Ep38
WE’VE AVOIDED RELEGATION!!!! Whilst we were never really down in the bowels of the SuperLiga, to have stayed up is an achievement. TO HAVE TOPPED THE FINAL STAGE AND FINISHED 9TH OVERALL is a massive OVER-achievement. The board were happy, I’m understating the case of course. They’ve given me an A- mark which, seeing as…

The European Journeyman Ep34
We’re heading into the winter break of our first season in the SuperLiga. There’s just two games left of the calendar year, up first is a tough game against top of the table Partizan. They’re followed by the polar opposite and a visit to rock bottom Sloga. Whilst the league POSITION isn’t as good as…

The European Journeyman Ep33
We’re at the half way point of the clubs first SuperLiga campaign. Things started well. Well, as well as things can go when the club is only SIX YEARS OLD and every year has seen a promotion without any serious improvement to squad quality!! October was tough. We won just the single point and were…

The European Journeyman Ep31
We’ve started to find our feet a little in the SuperLiga. A win and a draw (that we conceded in time added on AFTER THE ORIGINAL ADDED TIME WAS FINISHED) means that, coupled with the cup win, we’re on a three match unbeaten run!! We are still right in the thick of the relegation play…
