You've come quite a way into the season. I get the impression that you're doing all right, especially at home. Have you considered sharing a league table at some point? This might help bring an idea of how you're progressing.
SEASON UPDATE: Saints finish 2024 just outside play-off positions in League Two
As Craig Harrison prepares his squad to enter the new year, let's pause for a moment to review the squad at this moment and how Saints are progressing in the league. Firstly, here's an update on the squad with all the latest stats:
As you can see, Jaxon Thomas is leading the way on the scoring chart, and could hit 30 goals in all competitions before the end of the season if he remains fit. Despite not always starting games, Ezra Bowman has maintained an impressive assist record and, as shown below, has the most in the league. O'Connor and Herbert in the middle have the greatest number of appearances so far, underlining the need for reinforcement in this area to take the pressure off.
Here are the league-wide scoring and assist charts:
In terms of the team's league performance, it has been a case of strong home form and poor away results. With just two losses at home in the league all season, Harrison can be proud of his team's performances at Park Hall. However, winning just one away game (their first at Grimsby Town) will be truly disappointing for Saints and represents the team's biggest barrier to achieving an unexpected play-off finish this year. Here is the table and where The New Saints sit within it at this moment in time:

Yes, will do a full squad update and league table update now I've hit halfway point, I play on console so hard to take good screen grabs in-game so may recreate it. I'm in 11th at the moment so pretty good but away games on Legendary have been so frustrating. Think it makes things more realistic though so will probably stick with it.
Sorry, I may have just jinxed your progress with my mention of things going well for you. Four straight defeats there, haha...
Please continue with the more difficult away games. It only makes the story more interesting to follow, that you're not just winning it all going for successive promotions etc.
I play on console too, PS5. My screenshots end in my PS-app, from where I can share stuff in my story. But creating the images myself in excel or powerpoint is often preferable anyway.
TRANSFER UPDATE: Kyle Smith and Jacob Miller depart The New Saints
As the transfer window opens, The New Saints have announced the sale of two players.
Firstly, Kyle Smith (33) has made a move to Tranmere Rovers, joining on a short-term deal for a nominal fee of £90,000. Smith struggled to get any game time this season ahead of the likes of Draper, Just and Ward and has now moved on to look for better opportunities on Merseyside.
Secondly, Jacob Miller (20) has completed a move to South Wales with Newport County, who paid TNS a fee of £95,000 for the young player. Miller had not shown great signs of development and played very little in the first half of the season.
Craig Harrison and the club have wished the pair the best with their future careers.
