Meet Owen Gedrych, the Welsh manager with a name taken from a name generator and a face created by an AI that is about to set the world ablaze... or most likely fail repeatedly in the lower leagues. The idea of the game is just start in the lower leagues of welsh football, where the leagues are more like glorified sunday leagues, and see where the game takes me, trying to keep everything realistic - kinda like a llama save. I applied for a few jobs in the welsh fifth division leagues, where the only criteria I was using was "Does this team's badge look cool?" and ended up actually getting the job at a very cool team I can see myself managing for a while, until glory (or the sack). Now, i am running a bunch of custom files with this, so there's a chance this will end up like the previous save, dead with a crash on a specific date. The files running are not the same though, so I'm hopeful this will not happen.

North Wales Coast West Football League Division One On the 24th of August 2020, Owen got his first job ever as a manager, as the manager of Holyhead Town FC, the Harbourmen, that currently play in the North Wales Coast West Football League Division One, one of the leagues in the 5th tier of Welsh football. While now they are in the lower leagues of Welsh football, they used to be one of the bigger teams of the north of Wales, even reaching the Welsh Cup Quarter Finals in 1960-61. They play at the Millbank Sports Field, with all standing capacity for 1000 - a true lower league pitch. All the facilities are basic, poor and limited and are fully amateur, and Owen was hired to get a top half finish with the team.
Owen joins the team when two games have already been played, and the team did not do a bad job while managerless, so we've got that going on for us. We're predicted to finish 9th and are given 33-1 odds to go up. And this is our squad: The stars here don't do us justice. The issue is that Dewi Thomas is classed as a leading 2nd tier level striker, so everyone else pales in comparison. I have yet to fully develop my tactic, but it'll mostly be "chuck it to Thomas". And now for the the bit that sealed the deal for me, that made me love the team, even though I only found out about it after I got signed. These are their current kits:
