The Manager's Journal is a blog written by Michael Turner telling you all about his Football Manager journey. Football Manager 2011 is the 5th game in the series that he has written about, the first being a blog written about CM99/00. Now, almost 10 years on from the first post, and still keen to write, the site will also contain posts about real-life football, just in case you have been focusing on FM too much.

In the match of the round, rivals Sydney FC defeated Central Coast Mariners 3-2 at Bluetongue Stadium.

CCMFC Winger Greg Owens scored the first goal on the 6th minute with a well placed shot, before Sydney midfielder Shannon Cole scored from out of the area shot which hit the post before hitting the post.

Central Coast then had the worst possible scenario played in front of them, with Nigel Boogaard sent off for ungentlemanly conduct on the 42nd minute. Striker Luca Toni then put the blues ahead by one with a well placed strike. Fowler's header then increased the blues lead on the 72nd minute with a well placed header, before Mile Jedinak's consolation goal on the 76th gave the Mariners some credibility.
